aweebluesoandso 290 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I remember many years ago we played Spurs in a pre-season friendly that was on Setanta. I was working till near kickoff but sprinted home miles to see it. Now I would rather watch paint dry than watch any of our pre-season friendlies. Generally Things do get less exciting when you get older? This could be a metaphor for the club.... That's life (That's life) I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate, a poet, a pawn and a king I've been up and down and over and out and I know one thing Each time I find myself layin' flat on my face I just pick myself up and get back in the race 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
compo 6,214 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 we have wasted two seasons when we should have been building a decent squad for our return to the premier 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,282 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 ... from youngsters and players willing to come to us to play in the fourth and third tier of the Scottish game? Preferrably quite talented, homegrown and willing to work for next to nothing too? Yes, that would have been great. As it stands now, we have a band of 25odd freebies who will most likely have to earn their corn over this coming season or will be send packing next summer. I still have to see a list of people who would have been better, willing to come, costing next to nothing and have the ability to make a mark in the Championship and top tier. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we have to do Ally's job for him? We don't know who is available, what players earn or access to agents. And our u20 team's performance shows there are decent players there. Players that should have been playing this past season instead of finished duds like Daly and McCulloch. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm fairly happy with the team at present - on paper at least. We have the potential to be a good team, if it can all be pulled together properly. I actually don't believe that Ceptic have better players than us, but they are more structured & organised. If we can get that sorted out, I think we would be a force to be reckoned with. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darthter 542 Posted July 24, 2014 Share Posted July 24, 2014 Defence and Manager let us down, we are fine going forward I think there are options for the defence - I've always thought Faure has done well @ CB & could be a good shout beside Zaliukas. McGregor, I don't know anything about. Mohsni, is erratic & not as good a player as he thinks he is. McCulloch ain't no Davie Weir & shouldn't be on the pitch. 100% agree about the manager/coaching staff. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just to clarify , are you saying that with a settling of things off the field and a better manager/coaching this present group of players are good enough to win the SPFL? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
