So if iits been spent what has the Extra £2million gone on? Feck me the club are still rifling smisa's ringfenced funds too! Aye the mafia have taken over the club. As I wrote accounts will reveal all until you have a right to speculation. Me in all honestly I'm worried our signings bar maybe two are very worrying.

Surely the Alloa support will be like ours, wanting him out? Yes a point at ICT with 10 men was a shocker for a part time team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not denying that, just stating the facts and the irony of people wanting our manager sacked and Goodwin is a hero after the same amount of league games. PS I Like Goodwin, always have.

Whit the f**k are you on about? i am concerned that having seen an extra £2m in, the manager is having to sign loanees, non league players and still has to ship some out before shoring up a threadbare squad. Everyone with a stake in the club should be concerned by that, and the fact that all our experienced targets are signing elsewhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PS I Like Goodwin, always have. On a serious note the majority wanted Stubbs to succeed maybe he can pull a few rabbit's out the hat at this late hour but its not looking too good. The fact he finds it hard to set up a team has my àlarm bells ringing. Hope I'm wrong but can't see him lasting beyond October. Seen the same thing in recent years all too often there is a simlour pattern. Edited August 30, 2018 by Isle Of Bute Saint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We know now the money thats come in, i dont think anyone is disputing the figures? What we dont know is why we seem to have nothing other than the £75k for Heaton, (which we got back for Stewart) to help the manager build a squad fit for the premiership. we seem to only be able to attract non-league/academy/loanees... all the experienced targets are signing elsewhere..! Wake up and smell the coffee big man... we are obviously not meeting/matching expectations of players at this level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks a better option than NBM (albeit it is probably not fair to judge the latter so soon). At the very least, having Stewart would have been another option in that area. As things stand, we are woefully under-resourced in the forward area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turrabuddie Posted August 30, 2018 Report Share Posted August 30, 2018 Haven’t seen anything on here recently about us being linked with Jai Quitongo. Is that because we are blessed with pacey wide men, or too concerned with him being injury prone ? Surely not blinded by the team he last played for. Available on a free - I think he’d be worth a punt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But that was at least a few weeks ago when we were still sitting on the edge of our seats, speculating on who the marquee signings may be and when was the guy from Juve coming. There’s now less than 48hrs to go and we still have no pace and no width - I think he’s worth a punt, but do appreciate others may not.

I agree there is a player, but young Ross as never going to trouble the defenders he would come up against in the Premiership. Good luck to him though, hope it all works out at County. 7 minutes ago, pod said: At least the boy would have put in more effort than any of the other non premiership standard players we signed. I quite like my rose tinted glasses thank you very much. I don't doubt he'd put the effort in, like my comment above though, i fear it would have been to his detriment more than anything if Ross or Stubbzo threw him in there. as another optimist I have to believe, given Stubbzo is no fool, has a wealth of top level playing experience, as well as some success as a manager that we will see the young signings like Cooke & Heaton flourish. And that NBM just needs a goal to get off the mark, big Cole can't for an experienced player be that pish again, Hodson is now in the groove, young Alfie is the boy, Big Matty is going to thread them through the eye of a needle and a late flurry as the window closes will see us with a decent striking option. Stubbzo has gone for in the main, height and physical presence. Apart from injuries they should be match fit now, even for the breakneck speed of the game up here. King is the concern, not hearing anything about him getting first team action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
