  1. Given we have staff to cover the roll as you say I would much rather we used any cash freed up to strengthen the playing squad.
  2. Stevie Galloway one of the worst imposters ever to pull on the stripes !
  3. I will be disappointed with the squad currently assembled IF we have not added to it by the time the transfer window closes. We all know where we need to strengthen from DL down to fans but we have another 2 weeks plus to rectify that. We have to get the best players possible within our budget. To me that means showing patience and allowing the backroom staff to get on with it rather than panicking into rash purchases to placate nervy supporters. Plenty on here are screaming "give us a signing" but if that meant signing the likes of Barrowman who I personally think is nowhere near prem standard or waiting as a previous poster stated to see if Watt becomes available if his club sign another striker then I think we should wait. It may well be we have to settle for someone we don't reckon is good enough but at least lets give the club the breathing space they need to try to avoid that scenario.
  4. Exactly correct and last time I checked he is a sprinter not a professional footballer two entirely different sporting disciplines !
  5. Given his histoty of lower league English loan clubs how did he slip under Terry Butcher's radar ? That said he must have shown ability at some stage but given his vital statistics physically I doubt he is the pacey type we badly need . I have a mental image of Ngoo.
  6. Looks that way to me (I assume we are talking about the one who posts on here rather than the east coaster)
  7. Do you remember the season after our previous cup win. Thankfully the current custodians still do and are not repeating the spending splurge that followed that. All this "shame on you" stuff is total shite. Do you honestly think that Lennon and the board are not attempting to get players in. There is not much we can do if players don't want to come to us or they are outwith our budget. Most on here are starting to sound like they couldn't care less WHO we sign as long as we sign someone. Personally I'm much happier to wait for the right player and the price always drops the closer to the close of the window we get.
  8. What level are we talking about here ? Senior, junior, Saturday amatuer or Sunday league amatuer ?
  9. Just saw him spouting that on the news 28% equates to 20 million shares. At the market share price today his consortium's holding is worth approximately £8 million !!!! Who the hell is going to pay 14m for 8m worth of shares. Expect Chuckie to be chairman again shortly and Sally being forced to do the walk away of shame while we all piss ourselves laughing yet again.
  10. The story that never ends takes another unbelievable twist as Green the racist returns and within hours Sevco announce another boardroom coup will be attempted next week. This really reeks even for that scum.
  11. No offence to Graham but now that he has signed for a direct rival I hope I have seen the best of him and that he doesnt develope into a player we regret moving on.
  12. Imrie came back to haunt - it was a meaningless pre season fitness exercise. If that's his haunting done I'm delighted.
  13. Malmo are mid season and top of the league over there. They knocked TCFKAR out the CL qualifiers 2 seasons back so them humping a Hibs in a competition almost all provincial Scottish clubs struggle in was no surprise at all. Hibs minus rat boy will be in the mix at the bottom imo.
  14. Judith advised there was a flash flood warning today for the West of Scotland - who would have thought the lovely Ms Ralston had been following this thread never mind reading B&WA in general. FFS chaps get a grip - we lost a pre season match essentially a fitness exercise. There will be new faces you know that, I know that and so too does Danny so why all the knicker wetting ?
  15. Kelly / Yaqub might be excellet LB's - we will never know unless we give them a go. Let one or both have a go in the first few games and if they look the part great problem solved if they dont look up to it Danny has until 31 Aug to get a decent LB in leaving the 2 younger players as cover. Not too difficult to think this will be the way DL / the club are thinking. To say we dont have a LB at the club is just wrong - we have 2 and we will see in the next 4-6 games if they are upto the job. Why rush out and spunk cash on an allegedly reliable LB if we have 2 perfectly reliable ones currently within the squad (3 if we assume Barron can still perform in a role where he won POTY a few seasons back)
  16. Who's to say the current squad won't finish top 6. No one knows whats going to happen as we are still 2 weeks away from a ball being kicked in anger. Any squad cannot be judged 2 weeks BEFORE a season starts ffs ! Lets reserve judgement until we have played each team at least once by which time the squad will have been finalized and will have started to bed down. The weather may be bone dry but as usual this place is wringing.
  17. Was Arsenal not a Sunday game. I have a vague memory that match was arranged to compensate for an early Scottish cop ko but that might be just my hazy old memory. Remember being in the enclosure for the Rowdies game possibly a Friday night ???
  18. ​"Lex is right". At least we all know who you are now !!!!
  19. It's more the fact we are obviously still actively seeking players thats important rather than who they are or where they play. I haven't done a shit today but that statement doesn't mean I won't ever shit again.
  20. A fluke my arse. We had as tough a route as was possible Aberdeen away then beating Celtic and Hearts on neutral ground. Clearly you are just another Lennon hater who will never be happy with him in charge regardless of what we achieve.
  21. SSN reporting thT "promising" Ghanian midfield Caleb Gomah has been taken on an initial 3 week trial so as all rational balanced fans knew we ARE still active in the transfer market despite the usual rhetoric from the club that the knicker wetters swallow hook, line and sinker. Calm down FFS!
  22. SSN reporting big Sam is set to sign for Exeter City. All the best big chap.
  23. Jim White phoned me last night to say Lovestreet was one of the biggest name droppers he had ever heard of !!!
  24. Dont think there will be many if any Ayrshire junior clubs interested in playing in the new lowland league. Pretty sure it will be mainly the current east and south of Scotland semi pro clubs ie Spartans, Gala, Selkirk etc
  25. Clearly you haven't been around as long as I have.......................Stevie Galloway, Alex Bone, Renfrum and more recently John Baird spring instantly to mind
