You’ve a great view and good seat but you now want your surroundings improved, ffs, next you will be wanting a good team to watch - some folk are never happy 😃
-
Same way you fluke missing out on the top 6.
-
Saturday night post, Sunday morning forgot u posted - I’m going for alcohol involved.

Never thought he was a great striker, flicks were mostly either wide or straight at the keeper. Although he did create space and chances for others, also when he was here lastbhe helped out the defence, won free kicks and relieved the pressure so if he repeats that then he could do us a turn.
-
Even though he fluffed he chance?
-
So do you think the CEO must also be a mug? as he signs off on who Kettlewell wants to sign.
-
Wonder how many likes that will get
-
Eh naw, I can think of 6 Well fans a couple of who are season ticket holders.

RC are a big team set up to sit back, defend / bully and hope to get something on the break / set pieces. We can expect StJ, StM, Killie and both Dundee teams to do similar when they come to FP. I always thought we looked better away from home against those teams - Dutd apart - last season as those teams were more likely to attack us more when at home. The OF apart against Aberdeen and the Edinburgh clubs were the only ones to have a go at us at FP. I think that last season we would have lost yesterday’s game so I suppose we should be taking some good from that.

The flip side of having a cash gate is that with a cash gate how many folk would decide just to use it and how busy would it get? Big enough Q at the Hunter stand when all gates are ticket - how long does it take to scan a ticket?

Definitely plenty of room for improvement and hopefully we will. At the back Ox looked comfortable and commanded his box well. Wilson is improving week on week and could be an important player this season. The back three managed the RC bullying tactics well but a more skilled team could cause us trouble.SOD is definitely slower but wasn’t as bad as being made out and I think a couple of our best chance’s came from balls he put in. Midfield we’re all at sea at times, second to most balls and need to improve their passing. Forward’s, what to say? Need time to settle but they need to do it quickly.
-
Re your first point, yes it would be cheaper but if you think you can’t develop the youngster much more but think you can develop the other guy and get a fee when he’s sold then the additional up front cost is worth it. Re point 2, I’m sure I read someone earlier this week saying SOD gave up passing to him as he looked so out of place - what was your view of what you seen? Kaleta cut out by SOD, Kaleta out of his depth/not good enough (some on here make their minds up quicker then others)or Kaleta not up to speed yet.
-
A very hit or miss player for us, some good games and some brutal games. Floated in and out of games to often. Wasn’t upset to see him go tbh.
-
2games! Ffs when did this forum turn soft and who banned SB, Y et al? :)
-
I’ve no doubt that we have spoken to a few players but have been knocked back due to wage constraints or other reasons.
-
Agree SB, looking at who they play I don’t see two of them dropping points but it is the LC and it does throw up some strange results. Also, potentially we could lose, Clyde could win and we could end up out on our arse.
-
Delighted with the news but now the real work begins. Firstly I think we need to see and explain to everyone clearly defined rolls for the Club board - need to ditch the “Executive board” pish - and the Society board. ie Club board responsible for day to day running of the club, setting budgets and ensuring cash flow for the budgets. WS responsible for ensuring society has cash reserves for unforeseen shortcomings in club budgets, growing the membership, encouraging members to pay regular donations etc. After that the two boards need to work together in union to look at ways to encourage external investment in the club and society - no point in both of them chasing the same potential investors for different reasons which could be detrimental and put them off investing. Obviously there will now be changes to both boards but if members of the WS board feel they can work with those they opposed on this issue as they feel the other can bring something of value going forward, then I would be willing to trust in their judgment - not saying it’s going to happen but willing to show faith in the board.
-
Not advocating opening other stands to away fans but it will be difficult to fill the stadium again now that we only give the arse cheeks the south stand. No other clubs fill it and we won’t fill the rest of the stands.
-
I’m in the POD and agree that it’s past it’s best but there’s no way we can afford to replace it without ending up with a bog standard shitty breeze block box. The Hunter stand is in as much need of work and a purpose built training is, to me, more of a priority. I hope that after the wild sheep debacle is over - and hopefully rejected - I’d like the club and WS to work together and put together a plan to show us how they intend to do this and who should have responsibility for raising the money for each project without being detrimental to the squad budget (the WS could take on the training facility while the club looks after the stadium).
-
Strangely enough I heard he was heading to Germany and heading to a championship team today - a load of different rumours doing the round, any or none of which could be true.
-
Agree with you about the defence and the youngsters but thought Halliday looked fitter and sharper than last season and tried to get things moving. Definitely needed a creative player though.
-
Defence had not a lot to do although the 3 central defenders looked comfortable but going to go for Ewan Wilson, looks solid, had a lovely touch to set up SOD’s goal, would have liked to see him put in more crosses though.
-
They can take the other arse cheek with them.
-
Stop posting positively about the squad - I might start getting excited about the season ahead
-
Add another one to the reject list folk’s
