  1. Poor analogy for me. We were on the front foot as we had to be against St Mirren, Tait had his game of the season then too. Didn't represent value for money for me last year, paying a required fee further compounds that problem. We do have players in front of him and there are those who watched him in other quarters where he was no better than what we have & again those being promoted behind him. How do we progress the next batch if they aren't given that chance?
  2. Aye. Nae bother. Cheers for the input
  3. OK, I’ll bite. Plenty on here knew, some us don’t air our dirty washing in public thinking it’s the inside scoop - I’m sure there are no prizes given for being first to give some sycophants on here information.
  4. Hardly exclusive especially on here & a repeat on what others post. So you’ll know about the incoming striker who can play ‘along the front three’? O’Hara is no better than we have. There are players in front of him. Doesn’t represent a value for money with a years’ contract at current club to be paid up. Losing a midfielder may well change the outlook, but, suspect there would be better available if our budget was met.
  5. Behave. I wouldn’t say so. Doubt I’d be the only one of that thinking on here. Press soundbite doesn’t mean “has been long in discussion” or “the club want him”. As for easily working it out? Player can admit he wants to stay all he wants - I’m not sure stretching any budget to grant him his wish is good recruitment In any case.
  6. I’d rather he didn’t full stop safety wise or other. i certainly don’t buy your 95% or basically done quotes either. Your scoops each & every transfer window/close season go beyond parody.
  7. Honestly? Club cost cutting due prohibitive testing regime, but, we’ll offer training facilities? We need to move on from O’Hara.
  8. That's the beauty of pre-contract agreements...
  9. Looks like it - information given differed. In other news, broken clocks are correct twice a day.
  10. See above reply. Need to get with current club programme methinks. That and you never find happiness where you lost it.
  11. Think some are needing to reign expectations in. Around 5 promoted from reserve level all worthy of their chance. It's how we need to be. Survival will be key...
  12. Are they? I’m not seeing that at all despite paper talk some months ago. Were a midfielder to leave... Wouldn’t be my first choice but, that’s another debate. White is hardly news, purchasing property locally gave the game away months back, that & his wife telling her friends in Motherwell why they were moving to the area.
  13. Clue was in the Away kit not having white shorts
  14. You'll get your wish this season. I'd be prepared to see them with the black socks similar to above, if not, get the idea I the bin, tradition or not.
  15. Amazes how those with so little understanding of a subject talk so much Some should harness expectations on squad make up for next season. Nae teasing either.
  16. Financial prudence IS key. Think some need to harness expectations. I’m doubting much movement except those already agreed & on pre-contract. Promotion from the reserves supplementing squad make up. Now, if one of our assets were to go...
  17. Think you'll find club coaching staff have a very different opinion. No official statement - those affected know and then there is those who also know.
  18. On what do you base your thoughts on? Missed a large chunk of last season. Definitely don't see one of those mentioned stepping up at ours. Expect Alan Campbell to be our fundraiser in chief.
  19. The picture you paint is somewhat different... Grimshaw is contracted to summer of 2022 for one.
  20. Season ticket uptake has so far has broken expectation without informing the few sounding the loudest of current staff status & any revenue stream. if the club have chosen not to disclose for now they must have good reason. They’ve been trusted to lead us to where we find ourselves, why not trust them to carry on in same positive direction? It’s as if no balance sheet & accounts will be produced for our perusal .
  21. Well aware the club are fan owned. Made clear from the beginning of that particular journey that not every commercially sensitive decision would be shared & I like many are comfortable with that. Hardly withholding information when accounts will be published? Suspect our club have been ahead of the game in many respects. Without reading latest statements, have the club stated monies currently offered are being used in the way you describe?
  22. A few on this thread tapping into a subject they know little of... Like it or not, not every issue will be relayed to the rank and file support. The club can call on personnel experienced & capable of utilising revenue streams from various sources & to best of knowledge are doing so.
