  1. What a season, didn’t see it coming but I guess that’s how it goes at our level - right manager and a group of players that gel come along and it happens.

    Great day and night yesterday  Been telling myself I don’t care what we do next season if we win this but I’m sure that will change when the first game kicks off.

    Thanks to supporters of other clubs for their generous posts

  2. That was when we had Colin Cramb on our books. Fantastic player but ‘something of a disruptive presence in the dressing room’ - shall we say, being euphemistic and leaving it there.

    Cramb  and McGrillen were scoring bucket loads of goals then we signed Easy Stirlingshire’s Iain/ian Diack and it became a top heavy confection.. I’m sure Diack was a decent player but for some reason, when he joined us it was like he had never seen a football before. We should have left it as it was.

    Because we were riding high mid season I forced my brother and his mate to go to Hampden on Boxing Day to see us lose to Queens Park on a cold and misty day and our demise could be tracked from that very afternoon. After that I didn’t think we would ever win a league title. My brother goes to a warriors game once every 5 years and we always lose. He has been kept away all year this time round.

    This team is better but not as easy on the eye - there were some great performances in that top notch half season.

    What would be the point of having folk there that we're never going to put on? We had a keeper, defender, midfielder and striker on the bench. Not ideal but there's no point in just filling it up for the sake of it 

    So what happens if there are 2 or even 3 injuries to defenders in the match - why not have Aaron Reid on the bench ready to come on if needs be?  Do teams in the champions league have 1 defender, 1 midfielder, 1 forward on the bench? Signing amateurs and not putting them on the bench is a waste of time. Robs them of a chance of finding a pro contract, deny ourself an extra insurance against injury during the match. Costs us nothing financially. Daft imo

  4. Slight diversion from the football debate - as I tuned in to sky tv, seeing the teams walk out - I was very surprised to see 2 teams  sporting blue shorts and blue socks as well as vertical striped shirts,both featuring blue. I thought the powers that be were demanding ever more contrasting strips. Am I wrong?
