Frazzie Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Aye thats a good sterotype there , tall = diddy! You don't do a lot to disprove the stereotype... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeyin Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 A player being tall doesn't mean he's any good for fuck sake!!!! Ross McCormack was/is short than Derek Townsley/Paul Keegan/etc therefore cannae be as good eh?!?!If you don't know what I meant,let me write it out a wee bit slower so you can keep up. For the last 2 years, everybody on this board has been moaning that we don't have any tall defenders. When McGhee went into the market for one, he ended up with Klimpl (who was not tall, and played better in midfield). Gannon has brought in a 6'4" defender on trial. When I said "that's promising", I didn't mean it's promising because being tall makes you a good player. I meant: IT"S PROMISING BECAUSE GANNON IS ACTIVELY LOOKING TO ADDRESS A DEFICIENCY THAT HAS BEEN IN THE TEAM FOR A LONG TIME. There. Happy now? Now away and find something else to moan about.

milo Posted July 21, 2009 Report Share Posted July 21, 2009 Your patter's pish Weeyin. I don't get into arguements here about small hings like that and I'm not starting now. I understood what you meant. You've just proved yourself once and for all to be a cock though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazzyB Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I'm on Weeyin's side here, and I agree, if we are crying out for a tall defender to win headers at cross balls etc, then it's promising that we've got a 6"4 defender on trial. Edit - oops, didn't realise that this was from yesterday and most people had probably forgotten about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infamous Wee Grafter Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Less than excited at his being released by a league 1 side mind. He was offered a new short-term contract at Swindon but obviously rejected - The Big Man With regards League 1's standard, Stephen Hughes signed for a League 1 side today and he was a 1st team fixture for the last two seasons. Don't think we should be dissing the standard of the lower leagues down south. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trafficlight Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I suppose anything approaching a standard league gate would be very good for a game in Airdrie against unknown opposition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brazilian Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I suppose anything approaching a standard league gate would be very good for a game in Airdrie against unknown opposition. and during the Glasgow Fair, a time, when although not as prevalent as years past, is at the peak of the surrounding areas holiday season. bought 6 tickets today, seemed to be still selling reasonably well, and it was said that around 3000 had been sold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimus Prime Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 With regards League 1's standard, Stephen Hughes signed for a League 1 side today and he was a 1st team fixture for the last two seasons. Don't think we should be dissing the standard of the lower leagues down south. Aye, that league is a very high standard indeed. Not far off the standard of England's top league before the Premiership. Is Hughesy capable of playing at that level? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finlay Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 A vast improvement on the 500 being quoted last Friday. Was always going to be a decent number sold right enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WellLee Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I think there will be more than the 51 Llanelli fans this time at the away end of the main stand, but then again you never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juan Kerse Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 Will it be sit where you like on thursday again? Especially in the East stand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yir Elder Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 If we can get near the 4000 mark that will be good for holiday time, just need to make plenty of noise when we get there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welldaft Mk1 Posted July 22, 2009 Report Share Posted July 22, 2009 I agree - I never quite understand why we make 2-3 times as much noise away from home with half the crowd. In Llanelli with 1800 fans it was a non-stop sing song. Imagine if we could replicate that tomorrow night with 3500+. The early goal v Llanelli made a difference I am sure and we all pretty much knew we were going to win on the night. Tomorrow night will not be so easy - but let's make some noise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wishaestevie Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Easy question on tickets..where at Fir Park is the ticket office these days ?

jo.mcr Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 hey gus, got my tickets yesterday, but iv been put in the east, instead of the main. Any idea if the east is going to be pretty full as im tempted to go back down and asked to get moved into the main to get a better atmosphere if the easts going to be empty...

Neil Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 It was all East tickets when I was in yesterday, presume it's much like Llanelli where they're trying to spread the crowd over the 2 stands? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
