    Saint Garf reacted to Lord Pityme in Anyone But Hopkin   
    Dear god please no!
    it was effective for him against the likes of Brechin, Dumbarton and.... oh yes us! But the shitfestbof football Hopkin has his team serve up will send fans away in droves, plus it would see us routed in the Premiership by much better centre backs who it will be food & drink to.
    season ticket sales will reflect whoever the new manager is.

    Wouldn't you rather any new manager can immediately bring in his own choice of players?

    Ipswich have a director of football at the moment. From listening to Jack's previous interviews, I'd think this could be a major issue for him.

    I reckon he'll stay. The most tempting one yet though, I'd have thought.

    Congrats to Lewis and Stephen, well deserved. I voted for Lewis in the YPOTY and Cammy Smith in the POTY, but there could have been 3 or 4 candidates for either that no-one could complain about. Samson, Eckersley, Smith, McGinn, Morgan all could have easily won. 
    I'm sure the votes must have been extremely close. I hope the different supporters clubs have voted slightly differently, the awards really deserve to be spread around this season.

    Eckersley is signed up for another season, and I'm more than happy with that. He has been excellent this season.

    Saint Garf reacted to Sonny in Speculation Thread   
    Paul was a first choice pick for Dundee for 2 seasons in the Premiership then he signed a 2 year deal for Chesterfield playing half their games in League One. He wanted back to Scotland so terminated his contract and came back to sign for PT where he did not start too often. But there is a decent player in there and I am sure Jack will bring it out in him.

    Saint Garf got a reaction from Sweeper07 in Uche Ikpeazu   
    I doubt we could compete directly with Hearts in terms of wages, in fact, I'm certain we couldn't. But players don't always make decisions based on wages alone. The idea of this being a "shop window" move means he'll want to play as much football as possible, so a club where he starts off higher up the pecking order might be attractive. 
    The other thing to consider would be the manager's ability to "sell" his vision of the club to a player and that player, with their agent doing their research before signing. This particular guy is only 23, a modern, progressive, driven manager like Ross might be more appealing than someone with Levien's reputation.
    Sometimes it's not all about pounds and pence.

    You'd  be correct in assuming that I haven't seen their other 28 games. In fact, that's exactly what I said "I can only judge them on what I've seen"
    I therefore have reason to believe that they'll be able to make things difficult for us again.
    I'd have thought that was relatively straight forward. Hope this helps

    They've had a poor season, but they're nowhere near as bad as their 4 point tally suggests. I'd love to see us play some great attacking football and score a few goals, but I'd be chuffed with a scrappy 1-0 and Livi dropping points. Wrapping the title up is the only priority.

    I think we'll win, and if it all clicks we can score 3 or 4, but we'll need a performance to do that. We've got no automatic right to run over the top of them.

    You're right, very professional and loyal for such a young guy, wish him all the best.
    I'd love to see him back on loan next season, but I actually think he's more than capable of making an impact with them straight away.
    I think walking into a new club could be really daunting for a young player, but one thing Lewis doesn't lack is confidence, I think that'll serve him well.

    I'll be able to buy one for the first time in years, work has meant I've had to miss the odd game in recent seasons, so it wasn't value for money for me. All changed now though, so we're now at least +2!
