No need to defend yourself Bud. Look we're all hurting. The situation is almost unbearable. The ' happy clappers' and 'knicker wetters' are just how people are reacting to an increasingly worrying situation hoping, really hoping something can be pulled out of the hat at the last minute.

Nothing to do with denial. Some on here have a right to retain a degree of optimism (blind or otherwise) just as we did when Jack started and we were performing poorly. It's not happy clapping to get behind your team when the going is tough. We can't all be a miserable and pessimistic as you Elvis. I have supported the team as long as you mate and have seen a lot more dark than good times. It is tough at this point but if we all adopted a stance of complete doom then how does that help the team on the park if we all acted as such. People are still on their holiday and its still August so time to sort things out - either on the park or in the Boardroom.

Ayrshire Saints Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Ryan Edwards the Hearts midfielder (ex Thistle) according to STV. A bit more realistic although not sure it's the most pressing position in midfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he is more a holding midfielder however you base your critique on what exactly ? Who exactly should we be signing, he seems a bit more experienced in this division than most others we have signed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxbar_bud Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Edwards is a bizarre (possible) signing.How many centre mids do we needMcGinnJonesWillockMagennisKirkpatrickMcShaneFlynnMcPhersonWho can all play in the middle while we have one outright Winger (King, who can’t get a sniff).

munoz Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 This does seem a tad odd ( if true). Really not a priority, and wasn't that successful at Thistle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I understand things.... the player has been involved in 90 plus Premiership Games. If he comes, then he brings experience. There has already been speculation that we might ship out 1 or more midfielders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Killie cram as many into both stands behind the goals when they play the old firm 🤭Based on 3 home games against them at £25, Killie will have around 24000 away fans. We will have 9600 so Killie will make around 280K more than us from the bigots after vat. That is how they can get players that we can't.

Hendo Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Edwards signed for Hearts in the summer, which makes me think he'd be another loan signing. FWIW I think he's not a bad player, but plays in a position we definitely don't need anyone. Centre half, left midfield, striker and back up goalie. Got that Stubbsy? Now repeat after me...centre half, left... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
