Mediocre Pundit

Assume still no update on Rob Roy’s ground situation? At least we’re approaching another election season where politicians can hold a banner and pretend they care for five minutes to get some votes. Not that it will make any difference as soon as the polls close…

Don’t want to trawl through multiple pages since I last read an update - any new news on where you’re looking for a stadium?

Lovely headed assist from McBeth.

Hmm, could (still) really use a winger and a solid holding midfielder. On the former, wouldn’t be surprised if Dom Thomas would be keen to join us - think our style of play would suit him - but (rightly) can’t see us paying a fee. On latter, can’t even think of anyone who fits the bill and is available / realistic. Would prefer no additions to wasting money on additions that never get a game.

How does relegation from WoS Prem work if Clydebank (say) got promoted and Gretna got relegated to SOS? How does the league fill the space - less relegation or more promotion?

Such a weirdo - if you don’t like it just leave it and don’t comment. In the meantime the rest of us can be happy that a Thislte team played good football, pumped Hibs and got to a cup final.

Great result for the ladies - and they played really well, especially in the conditions. Two good goals, but some really good play (and grit) throughout. Its poor regardless that they ever thought to make it a Saturday - making fans of both clubs choose between following men’s or women’s teams. Having women’s on Sunday helps grow the game - the final should always have been a Sunday, and for the three reasons already mentioned I hope it’s moved.

I actually think a model where we use Petershill for ladies / reserves / youths, and Firhill for men and occasional high profile games from the former, would work well. the main gap is therefore training facilities - do we still use Garscube? From photos / videos we appear to be all over the place for facilities.

Potentially daft question, but why were Clyde wearing their away kit last night - especially when it’s red which meant Aberdeen also had to wear their away kit?

Think that would be a good solution all round. “local clubs like Kelburne” though? Paisley c***s that have focussed on their playing squad for years and so still don’t have a suitable pitch anywhere near home and need to share Glasgow Green? Plenty of football analogies there…

I’ll not hear a bad word about Sean Welsh. Lovely footballer. But yes, it’s a shame he’s made of chocolate.

I can see him leaving QP - he’s looked a bit pissed off in telly games recently and might not like being part of a “project” / feel he can do better than a relegation struggle. But I can’t see us beating DU to his signature unless there are non-financial reasons at play, eg location, likelihood of playing time etc. And nor should we - either on fee (shouldn’t pay one) or wages (shouldn’t push boat out beyond what we would do for any other player) - but he’s good, and would fit our style / system well.

And Milne is playing every week, unlike the other two. Can’t imagine he would be unhappy.

I expect this allows Mitchell to leave with Stewart brought in on a lower wage - given he’s been without a club for so long. So Sneddon remains #1, we have a respectable backup option, and we free up a bit of budget?

I think Andy Halliday would be pretty much perfect for what we need and are realistically able to get in this window - a game-smart dirty b*****d that has people to run off him. Would be pleased with him on either a 6 or 18m deal.
