What can we expect from Jordan Houston, gents? Decent enough for L1 or a shite addition?
He scored a good goal on the telly, if that helps?

Are we seriously still deluding ourselves that Partick’s “dark arts” had any bearing on the 8-0 aggregate defeat? We were 2nd best everywhere on the park and in the dugout too.
That makes it worse because they didn't need to do it.

Maybe if Partick spent more time playing football and less time rolling around on the grass they could've got promoted.

Thistle might be imploding here

I got bored watching the English cup final and started making curry.
Fell asleep trying to watch that one

Anyone else watching the Scottish cup final and imagining Reading v Jota, McGinty v Kyogo, Dempsey v McGregor, Dipo v Starfelt, etc? Pretty sure Ayr would've won easily.

How about playing matches overseas? It would be a tremendous boost for the club's profile.
Magaluf?

I don't imagine the club trusts the appeals system after what happened to Daire O'Connor.

Hard to get worked up over where they'll play league cup games when the manager treats them like friendlies anyway.

Wonder if we'll play wingers on the wings one day.

Why is Kris Boyd holding a notepad when he can't read or write?

County have been more proactive since the red card than I would've expected. Bold strategy.

Also heard we’re hoping to get Kirk back for next season as well
That would be good but it's not the weakest position so it's not a huge change to the overall level

Are we expecting signings any time soon? Would have thought it would be a couple of weeks before we hear much
I think Dipo signed (or was announced) on 3rd June last year, so we're in the ballpark now.

Doing it for Dunfermline makes sense if they're expecting a capacity crowd. Supply and demand and all that. Would they expect to sell Starks out for a match vs Dundee United normally? Especially as despite their having obviously decided to strengthen for next season, they had an absolutely anonymous one this time and Dundee United will absolutely be expected to be challenging for the title.
Couldn't really see Ayr doing it but that's primarily because the teams most likely to draw a capacity crowd at Somerset are also teams whose fans typically expect to spend far more at the gate than Ayr fans, thus meaning raising the ticket cost would just mean a higher ratio of away fans.Marketing-wise I wonder if it might be wiser to set the standard price at the higher rate and offer discounted entry to the games they want to charge less for. Who knows?

Was reading about the new fan bank initiative on Twitter there and came across this gem. Could our budget be more than anticipated?

6 players isn't going to be enough I'm afraid. I think we're all in agreement that we currently have 6 starters in Albinson, Musonda, McGinty , Murdoch, Dempsey and Dipo (who is likely to leave). So presuming he does leave that means we need 6 players to come in and be staters. Relying on every one of those 6 being successes is a bit naive so we're probably looking at needing around 10 players imo.
You can't add ten players to what's already there. It's too many. Need to use coaching to get improved performances from the existing squad and add wisely in a few positions.

Very good news in here that they've identified an issue with the playing surface and have a plan to fix it

Prior to Friday night there was a possibility that we were still going to have another 2 games this season and could potentially have been in the league above, as such it would seem incredulous that we would already have signed players or indeed released players when we didn't even know what league we were going to be in the following season.
It's equally unbelievable that they wouldn't have a plan A and a plan B ready to go into effect immediately upon the league situation crystallising. I imagine they're some way down the road with whichever players they're looking at.

We wanted a big rebuild, we needed a big rebuild, and that looks like what we are going to get!
Would be nice if it was done strategically though and not as a reaction to the initial plan for continuity breaking down!

No wonder they beat us if they had a team full of players they couldn't afford. This sort of thing irritates me intensely.
