  1. 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.
  2. 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?
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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?
  7. 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…
  8. I’ll not hear a bad word about Sean Welsh. Lovely footballer. But yes, it’s a shame he’s made of chocolate.
  9. 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.
  10. And Milne is playing every week, unlike the other two. Can’t imagine he would be unhappy.
  11. 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?
  12. 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.
  13. Saying you “flew too close to the sun” implies that this season problems stem from last seasons relative success. Which they don’t - they seem to stem from yet more shambolic decision making by the leadership of your club - choice of manager, player recruitment, and ultimately “the project”. An arrogant belief that a player development project can also be competitive at the top end of the Championship. And that’s ignoring all the off field stuff. Not having a go, and I empathise, but the way you posted almost suggested you were giving them an out.
