Gordon EF Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 (edited) I'd love to keep Pagey but with the signings of Dunlop and Meggat I think we're at a point where it wouldn't be too big a blow to lose him, and maybe that was the thinking behind the Meggat signing. I assume we're waiting to hear about Dunsmore and Watson and that they're seeing if they can get a full time deal somewhere? It'd be great to keep both of them too and if we did, we'd have a very solid looking defence, even if Page moves on, with strong competition for places. (Dunsmore - Watson/Dunlop - Meggat - Linton) is good or we could move Dunsmore and/or Linton up a big and have Kane, Watson or Meggat move to the full back positions. Especially after last season, getting the defence sorted early and building from there seems like a good move. We obviously need at least two strikers to come in and probably need at least one more attacking midfield / wing option but you'd assume the usual 2 or 3 loanees will arrive before the start of the season to cover some of those positions as well. All in all, I'm a lot calmer about the squad for next season than I was a month ago. And I think Young deserves a bit of credit for getting some good signings in early. There were a few rumours about players not getting on well with Young and he's obviously brought in guys he knows so that shouldn't be an issue next year, if it actually was last year.

King Kebab Posted June 3, 2018 Author Share Posted June 3, 2018 If Pagey is fit and has his head in the right place then he is a starter IMO, but as Gordon says we now have adequate cover so we aren't now forced to play him as we were last season. And the new guys are going to be "Young's Boys" so may perhaps be starting, the ball is entirely in Pagey's court!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sirscottyoung Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Just done some calculations for everyone. For every Adult season ticket at the early bird price of £220 this equates to £4.20 per week over the season (52 weeks) if everyone was to really push to help the team and the budget by getting a season ticket then think how much extra the club could use for wages etc. 1 ticket = £4.20pw 5 tickets = £21pw 10 tickets = £42pw So Imagine we all got tickets. Say that number was 50 so an extra 50 tickets of folk on the fence. thats an extra players wages paid for the season. (£210) all down to season tickets... Worth maybe having a look at renewing your ticket book or getting on for the first time. Help the management and the board with getting to the championship if that’s what everyone wants... 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't suppose any one really cares about our inevitable defeat to Cowden, but it'd be nice to get some money from a big travelling support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everything is booked and set out for the game to be played at bayview. imagine going from all ticket 2000 then having to sort out moving everything to starks or vice versa if not ready. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
