The Queen of the South Thread
the philosopher replied to qos_75's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Good on him. I did like him as a player but we don't really have the luxury of affording young boys time to develop. Not surprised he's got a decent move up though. Moxon is now 24 and more than suitable for SPFL league 2. Under Simpson should do well at Carlisle in English league2. For the future because of our location perhaps there should be greater cooperation/links between our Border teams creating pathways for young players.In recent years Annan have successfully recruited from Dalbeattie ie.Muir,Goss,Anderson etc. and vice a versa Ex.Annan player Currie is top goalscorers with them this year. -

Yes we're resigned to losing him. Carlisle and Hartlepool both rumoured to be showing interest in him. -
Staropramen £3 a pint in Shed tonight,strong tackle too !

Get in to this lot Annan, 1 goal and we're back in it big time !

No Marco, U16 have free admission when accompanied by an adult so Mustafa I would think you only pay £12 in total for you and the 2 under 16's. Looking at the online booking you could try entering 3 at the row where it says adult and u16. ( NO TOTALLY sure about this wouldn't want them taking£36 off you) Hopefully you can amend before booking. If in doubt just pay at the gate- they should know the score. At least that's my interpretation.

It's been well documented Queens are quite cash rich so probably no fears. But hey, on a finance point of view- it would definitely be better for Queens if Annan beat Edinburgh City in the play off finals- that's apart from local interest. -

A booking keeping charge to the P&L a/c is not quite the same as setting the same amount aside in cash for that purpose. It may well have been though,just saying ,without seeing the a/c's. -
Do You Support Scottish Sides in Europe?
the philosopher replied to Kejan's topic in Scots in Europe
Great to see St.Andrews cross flags at Ibrox now. -
The idea of these AstroTurf pitches is fewer games are postponed and there is an extra revenue stream from the general community use. One of the most important issues is that some of that revenue is set aside for pitch replacement long before it is nackered or at the end of life.This should avoid any player injuries. Most clubs don't show that discipline and the cash is just devoured In the normal running costs- instead they go out with begging bowl to local councils and SFA grants !

At the end of the season the League table never lies and all 4 teams are there on merit ( strange way to describe Dumbarton's predicament mind you). The 3 League 2 teams have all been faltering and inconsistent the last 6 weeks or so whereas Dumbarton have had some decent form. If Annan are up for it tonight I think they can take a good lead up to Station Park on Saturday and go all the way.

Annan Vs Cowdenbeath
the philosopher replied to Hauftimedraw's topic in Scottish League 2 General Chatter
Well done Tam , a new ambassador for Annan -
Kelty Hearts v The Binos
the philosopher replied to rhliston's topic in Scottish League 2 General Chatter
Boys are on holiday now. Job done. -
Winners enclosure : Kelty Hearts - well done. 2 & 3 Annan & Forfar - although they both are in a slump,playing pretty shit. So big question who's gonna be number 4 ? 9 points available. Ed. City 48 pts Stenny 45pts The Clayhole (Stranraer) 41 pts. Because anyone can beat anyone this league from 2 to 10 , EC got the advantage points wise & probably enough but I reckon the most decisive game will be Stenny v Stranraer on the 23rd April if the city boys slip up before then

Annan Vs Cowdenbeath
the philosopher replied to Hauftimedraw's topic in Scottish League 2 General Chatter
Well done the Blue Brazil. Fully deserved result. Looks like you 'll be in a play off but with the energy & skills we saw today I think u have a very good chance of surviving. Watched Bonnybridge against Gretna no too impressed a bit immobile. Not a clue about either the Broch or Buckie - on form decent sides -

the philosopher replied to Port Talbot Loons's topic in Scottish League 2 General Chatter
Spot on Iwh - you guys been in a bit of free fall recently. From an Annan point o view hopefully we finish 2nd and get 2nd. Leg of playoff at Galabank -
Your shite and you know you are.Over inflated egos. The last 2 years you been in league 2 You finished 8th. 4 seasons before that you were 9th ,10th,9th,9th in league 1 - you are not great shakes. Best I can say about Stenny- nice home made soup. Stewards are arse holes & usually the hospitality crowd are a load of vile pished up p***ks.

Quality in league 2 is no that great. You boys were very good early doors when we played u - I actually thought the best ( excluding the Kelty) but you seem to have shit your breeks now. Do you think you'll make 3rd. ? ( cheeky question after Annan's performance today ) -
The Binos v Annan Ath
the philosopher replied to rhliston's topic in Scottish League 2 General Chatter
No gonna rub it in but after a fairly even first half Annan were never in any trouble in the second. I'm sure this is the year for Annan but who knows -
