Poet of the Macabre Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 14 hours ago, Rob1885 said: The manager needs to get the recruitment spot on this Summer, not needing January to save our season. Going in last season without a natural central midfielder and spending over £20k on a 3rd/4th choice striker was baffling. Still don't understand the Andy Ryan signing. Bizarre for us to spend money on a player and then rarely use him. He did quite well when given a chance but was a totally unnecessary purchase. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shandon Par Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Faissal would be a good Nicky Clark replacement. Can't see Faiss and Clark working in the same team. AJ is a huge Nicky Clark fan though so expect he'll make him an offer. Could be lower away crowds again but a bit of extra dosh from our higher finish will offset that. If season tickets go okay then hopefully same sort of budget as last season for AJ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Can't imagine it's going to be lower, unless we've gone a bit over with the January signings? Feels like we have too big a squad as it is right now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One goal in 2018 is good going. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd consider buying a ST if we re-signed Faissal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If season tickets go okay then hopefully same sort of budget as last season for AJ? I hope the board don't budget on away crowds. Anyway, will the away crowds really be down? Ayr have a much bigger support than Brechin. Dundee United aren't going anywhere. St Mirren will be replaced by either Ross County (slightly lower crowds than St Mirren on average) or Partick Thistle (about the same as St Mirren). We might even lose Livingston and both County and Thistle will most likely bring more fans than Livi. Dumbarton and Alloa bring about the same so no change there really. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, not like losing Raith and Hibs to be replaced with ICT and Brechin anyway. I just mean the budget shouldn't be drastically different unless nobody buys season tickets. Hopefully the good end to the season will help shift some and then a couple of signings when AJ is back from his hols. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Aye Dundee are safe, as are Hamilton. It's down to Partick and Ross County for 11th and 12th. No way Dundee would bring 2000 twice for a regular league game anyway 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A.F.C Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Partick then, I thought Dundee were still involved. Premiership sucks balls. I see saints are charging £20+ for games next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 (edited) Ross County and Dundee both charge £24 for regular games. Dundee also charge £30 for 'Category A' games. Prices are shit even in the Championship. Lucky I still have a student card Edited May 10, 2018 by DA Baracus 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 Those prices are beyond ridiculous. Get those clubs in the fucking sea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A.F.C Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 It's weird I want the pars to be in the top league but the idea of us playing Killie, Motherwell or Ross County isn't appealing at all. You know that against the OF if we are in the game the ref will just hand it to them anyway. So really the highlights would be Tynecastle and Easter Road twice and a cup run. £20 to watch Ross fucking County. No wonder Scottish football is dogshit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
