I agree that I think he'll stay, but I can't imagine any club (even ours) would create a contract where we must re-sign a player that we don't want. For example, if he had a terrilble season, or worse, suffered injury issues, would we really want to be in a position where we payed out a wage next season to a guy who might never start a game? Make zero sense. For all that, I'd be happy to see him back at Fir Park next season and it seems Skippy enjoys playing for us and would be mutually beneficial. I still find it amusing that some fans didn't want him back because he kissed a badge while playing for Celtic. Any time I ever heard him speak or read an interview he always spoke highly of his time with us. The guy oozes experience and even after he had decided to move on the first time around he always gave 100%. Total professional who I'd be delighted to see finish his career at Fir Park.

While I can see McGhee's point that players lose that edge once they meet their goals, it's still disappointing to see a season peter out. All the more so when the difference in prize money can make a big difference to a club like ours. Hopefully we can regroup for a win,

It's all a bit vague and McGhee isn't exactly straightforward when it comes to signings, injuries etc. - and I mean that in a good way i.e. he never reveals his cards. The player having an option doesn't make sense to me, as he wouldn't have to put that in any contract. Unless we're saying he can make us sign him even if we didn't want him. Regardless, I'd be happy for him to stay another season, especially if we do end up selling Moult. I don't think it's coincidence Erwin and now Moult have improved playing alongside Skippy,

That's a shame. I'm sure the players would liked to have thanked you for the encouragement and belief you showed them this season as they turned things around.

They won't let you run on stage at concerts either. PC gone mad.

I think that's more likely.

We had a straightforward league setup for years - even after the introduction of the SPL. Although the original SPL was a money grab by the "Big 10". The problems started when they wanted more teams AND 4 OF games each season.

If "a" supporter wants to do it, it's not problem. If 1000 supporters want to do it, do you think they'd let us? And if you don't know what unsafe standing is, you've never been to East Stirling on a Wednesday night in January.

Exactly. Plus I'm pretty sure the existing terracing steps wouldn't be able to support the rail seats so would need to rebuild those.

There's certainly some fans I'd like to stay off the page! (I know, I know. Autocorrect is a bugger).

Joe Wark was the last player I remember who could actually take a throw.

I doubt we had a good one as recently as that.

3 - 1 to the 'Well. And keep off the pitch.

Tynecastle when our formation was McGheed.

No mention of Law being injured in McGhee's press conference, but he also said Laing wouldn't be ready to start.

Not live, but the hour-long highlights are on Alba this evening. Can't find an active stream elsewhere right now.

Hmm, not a fan of that one, I'm afraid. Despite the good intentions behind the "x" I feel like I want to click on it to close the image!

I imagine that the increase in price is based on our break even budget strategy and need to keep paying back Les' loan.

Too much footballing skill, otherwise he'd be a shoo-in.

Apparently our Sports Scientist was working hard with Cadden and Hall to get them fitter, bulkier and faster for their first team appearances. Presumably if there are potential candidates for promotion next season we he can do the same for them over the summer. You can certainly see the difference in those 2 now compared to when they made their debuts.

The Scotsman has published some weird Reddit type articles recently such as Top 6 Manager of the Year Snubs and something about the best young player. This one just seems like another in that particular line of mince.

Aye, they have been turning out for the U20s most weeks and then playing for their 'big' team at the weekends. On a different topic, we must surely have set the record for the number of Dylans in a Cup winning team.

Tough road to win it as well. Partick Thistle, Killie, St. Johnstone, Ross County and Hearts. Stenhousemuir the only non-SPFL opponents.
