I take it Ricky is back from suspension for this?Fitting that most likely his last game for us at Gayfield will be against QP, and also incredible to think what’s happened to both clubs during his time at Gayfield! Not one for dead rubbers but will head down to this I think.

Kirkpatrick runs the Dundee branch of black rooster , Mick Kennedy’s chicken shop

Basically all of the players who were involved in their great season a few years back have been pinched by other teams.

Works at Rosyth Dockyards. Can’t mind exactly what job. Welding gaffer rings a bell

Not sure what TOBs fitness situation is but I’d be resting him for the remaining games regardless. Seems like he’s not been fit since the end of 21/22.

Went to watch North End Vs Lochee tonight, North End were as brilliant as Lochee were poor. Familiar story from when I’ve seen the Chee previously, no real game plan or cohesion. Long ball to Linn and Hay was bread and butter for North End centre halves. Goal of the match Frankie Devine’s incredible strike for the second.

Since you’ve mentioned him - Dwight Gayle’s wife is from Forfar. Fun fact.

It’s pretty obvious he’s staying

Not a huge fan of Dow but he’s probably a good figure to have around the dressing room. Not a winger in a million years though, and is infuriating to watch playing there. Perhaps will see more of him in his preferred 10/attacking midfield since it seems McKenna is offski

Did McIntyre not also say when he came in his preferred formation is 442?Not really one that McKenna fits into.

Had typed a longer post out but forgot to post and it disappeared - to summarise, would be gutted to lose Mikey as I believe he’s someone with the best interests of the club at heart. He is EXACTLY the type of player/character who has brought us our recent success, and it would be fairly damning if he was to move on at this stage of his career (Even if this is largely due to not getting on with McIntyre, I have no doubt there are some other factors). Really wanting the season to end now so we can clarify players futures and start moving forward.

Great to see Scott Stewart sign on. I wanted McIntyre gone but it’s clear that isn’t happening, he has my backing to get his own squad in now and make a good fist of League One.

Any other exclusives?

Few people have mentioned that Dick should’ve stepped away after the 21/22 season, and whilst with the huge benefit of hindsight that probably would’ve been right, any manager in the world would’ve wanted another crack at it after the success of that season.

I’ve been a pretty vocal opponent of a youth setup in the past, but Montrose seem to bring through players who can contribute so why can’t we. Could even have a few young lads from further afield in scotland, and house them up here instead of hopeless punts from down south.
