FFC 1876

They were quick enough to give Mehmet his legendary 3 year deal last summer. Conveniently left out the fact we've also beat 3 championship clubs this season in the cup. Ayr, Queens Park and rode Dundee United silly. Also dominated Partick Thistle with 10 men before losing a late equaliser. It's some feat for any team to go unbeaten through a whole league season so on that basis I'm sure Dunfermline fans would have classed that side last year as legends.

Nobody thinks the team are legends just because we'll have been promoted out of league one. They'll be legends because of the manner they've done it. Unbeaten in the league all season(hopefully), 2nd best defensive record in the country, most goals scored in the spfl and the top goalscorer in the spfl.

Anyone make it along to the FSS AGM tonight?

Against the team who scored 2 goals against us from set pieces last time out it's a blow, hopefully he makes the game as otherwise we'll have Donaldson as our only real height.

I had Liam Dick as the other potential in my mind as McGlynn signed him for you, he's local to us and he can fill in at centre back if needed.

Other than Ethan Ross who else is out of contract and likely to not be offered a new one? Like last summer I'd imagine McGlynn will be all over them.

How much is not a lot of room? With promotion all-but over the line, McGlynn revealed that the current squad won’t look too different come the start of the next campaign, with continuity key. “I don’t think we’ll have a lot of room for bringing in new faces, I don’t think the budget will stretch that far,” he admitted. “But we will have a lot of continuity. It is what it is. “We have an amazing dressing room, the guys all get on like a house on fire.

Get Hogarth, Yeats, Ross, Tait and Shanley resigned then sprinkle in some quality starters in the summer. Allan will be out the door. Goalkeepers Starting GK Nicky Hogarth* Owen Hayward (A) Defenders Finn Yeats* Keelan Adams Tom Lang Coll Donaldson CB/LB Cover Leon Mccann Logan Sinclair (A) Midfielders Brad Spender Liam Henderson Dylan Tait* CM cover Shay Burke (A) Gary Oliver Aidan Nesbitt Starting 10 Callumn Morrison Calvin Miller Ethan Ross* Alfie Agyeman Scott Honeyman (A) Rhys Walker (A) Strikers Starting ST Ross MacIver Ryan Shanley*

I'd rather have Yeats than a 'proper' right back like Williamson, Tumilty, Doyle or Mercer.

He could definitely improve defensively but over the course of this season I can't remember many times the opposing winger got the best of him over the course of the whole game and given he's only 19(20 next month) I'm not surprised he's got things still to work on. I don't mind him in the middle of the park but he's very limited in there for me, I much prefer him at right back.

I'm assuming Yeats will eventually sign a new deal and if he does I reckon it will be between him and Adams as to who makes that starting spot their own.

He's being signed as a squad player who can play in 3(4 at a push) positions in McGlynn's 4-2-3-1 but absolutely we need to improve on the starting 11 this summer. GK, 10 and ST being the priority. Do you think you'll make the playoffs?

@gav-ffc knew all along.

I can see the versatility point of view but I was hoping McGlynn would have been more ruthless than that.

We've all mentioned the positions we feel need strengthened in the summer but what kind of attributes would you like to see us improve on. Just like how last summer Swinney was on Falkirk daft talking about how we needed more power, aggression and pace. For me it's creativity, composure & experience.

I think it'll be this weekend, Cove need to pick up points as otherwise Montrose/Alloa will pip them to the playoff spots. Cove won the last home game against them 1-0 in November and although Hamilton won the other two matches there wasn't much in the games.

It's mentioned on Falkirk daft how much McGlynn lives and breathes football and how much his fine lady must detest him for it. I made the trip through to Alloa on Sunday to watch the U18's and around 5 minutes before the game started in strolls super John McGlynn in his finest Sunday clobber(bunnet and all) with his fine lady following behind him. Just hope he treated her to something from the lidl bakery after the game.

Makes a difference from us fighting over which of the numerous diddies we want punted first. Starting GK Left sided CB CM Starting 10 Starting ST

As mentioned we've not seen much of him but he looks similar to MacIver in that his link up plays excellent but he lacks that killer instinct to put chances away.

Bit left field here but what's the script with Steven Warnock, I remember him being hyped up in the press a few years ago with a possible move down south and he had a decent loan spell at Edinburgh last year but appears to have done nothing this season? Thought he'd have been out on loan again this season proving himself like Bobby Wales.

Exactly, to progress we should be aiming to better the starting 11.

Everytime Oliver's started he's shown why Nesbitt is preferred to him. We need better next season.

Best starting 11 from the start, get the game won then ring the changes. Long Yeats Donaldson Hendo Mccann Spencer Tait Morrison Nesbitt Miller MacIver

Where was this mentioned? Hopefully Hogarth, Yeats and Ross. Tait's under contract for another year at Hibs but hopefully we can bring him back in the summer too.

Looked to me like he jumped far too early for it and so got caught underneath it when the ball actually came to him. He's one of the best in the air we've ever had but he has those sitters in him.
