  1. It is that game , only the main stand was open.
  2. He has quite a few friends among our 30something supporters , who were classmates in Renfrew High. His late dad , Finlay , was an acquaintance of mine in the Western Bar , and his Uncle David was a friend of mine who was with the same team as me in the 80s , before he emigrated.
  3. Apols if this has been covered elsewhere , but , according to JG we better enjoy our loan signings for now , because they're unlikely to be here long term. Wolves would want 500k minimum for Ronan , JJ is still on his Rangers contract at Wigan for another 2 seasons and Gogic is going back to Cyprus , to play there and be nearer his family ! Unlikely any of the three will be here beyond the end of the season.
  4. I don't buy this . Historically our crowds have always been bigger v the cheeks. eg Our record attendance at Love St. Even when I became a regular in the late 60s/70s , if a game against either of them attracted 30k , you'd be lucky to find 5k Buds at the game. Some kids have always been affected too , eg I wasn't allowed to go to games v the Old Firm at LS , didn't stop me still being a Bud today !
  5. He can play , for some reason , he misses their game with Aberdeen this Saturday. Their two new strikers , Ciftci and Bair are both missing.
  6. I'm sure Ethan will turn out a big player for us , but he isn't at the moment , hence the signings of Power and Gogic. His head seems to be in the clouds half the time , concentration seems to be a problem. Against Aberdeen he came on late for Ronan and the first thing he did was attempt a dummy in the midfield area , the ball going to an Aberdeen player who started an attack. JG was giving him pelters about it after that attack broke down .
  7. Big Urminsky being groomed as a possible successor ? MoM , clean sheet and penalty save yesterday !
  8. Big Dunne was outstanding , throws his weight about , is very quick , and has improved big time within a back four !
  9. I think it's in the wording , Offord is a "development loan" while Jamieson is a loan ! When the reserve league was going , guys on a development loan could play the midweek games back at their own clubs !
  10. Offord being recalled from the 'Shire.
  11. He'll go back on loan to Clyde , he can do so until the end of February.
  12. Also worth noting that Josh Jack , Jay Henderson and Lewis Jamieson have all been loaned to Clyde at one time or another and played alongside Goodwillie. Goodwillie has also been in the SPFL team of the week , when he scored a few in one game v Stranraer, and there was nothing from us about not allowing our players to go there and play.
  13. A defender doing the basics comes to mind ............
  14. Tait could have done anything, apart from what he did do , and we would have won. Out for a corner , out for a throw , pulled his jersey and taken a booking , fallen on the ball , anything , apart from trying to waste time near the corner ...........................
  15. He's a good one to hold onto , can play anywhere and is also a danger in the opponents box if we're chasing a game !
  16. He didn't really have a decent run in the Championship either , he played some games in the disastrous first half of the 2016/2017 season and was off his mark in January !
  17. My old boy had 2 marinas at the same time , a coupe and a TC , never had a problem , towed a caravan all the way to Torquay with the Coupe !
  18. Don't think he's too far out , we have been trying to bring in 20yr old Fulham striker Kieron Bowie .
  19. He's probably trying to work his ticket and get us to release him with an agreement to pay up his contract , so he can move on his own terms. It's his prerogative !
  20. Seen elsewhere , someone saying we're trying to get Kieron Bowie on loan from Fulham ?
  21. Think he's out the picture , only played 9 games I think , not even in the squad yesterday !
  22. Wigan have made him an offer of a PCA , but he hasn't signed it , plus they're offering buttons. He's waiting to see if there's a better offer for him , and we're looking at getting a better deal ! Aberdeen and Hibs know the deal on the table from Wigan !
  23. He is , and he's 34 , and may well be planning to return to Ireland ?
  24. I heard Wigan aren't playing ball over a decent fee , I suppose that could change by Monday ?
  25. PCA with Wigan I think , but may well see the season out with us .
