  1. Yeah I’d reiterate that, seems the rain did indeed help secure it. Jimmy is the Noah of P&B
  2. Dundee game has been postponed. How does this work now? You choose another? If Aberdeen get beat do we have to wait till whatever midweek is agreed to get the result for this weekend? If Dundee lose that game what happens? If Aberdeen win do you pick other games provisionally in Wk9 onward but could already be pied when Dundee play the rearranged fixture? One for @Poet of the Macabre
  3. I got first dibs, and backsies aren't allowed. What happens if there's a double result upset? Count back seeing who hasn't used both the OF? ...... I dithered with Stenny as my backup for what it's worth.
  4. You'd imagine the it would be pro rata so for 60% of the agreed funds 3 years ago, the finders fee Doncaster paid still stays at £500k or whatever it was, so that £100k that was absorbed every year is now £165k in reality taken away from the game. Colossal mismanagement, why they employed an intermediary is an eye opener, why it was for so much money is mind boggling.
  5. Despite having a managerless arsecheek in the stable, as thinking they've turned the corner, I'm going for the Dandies .... Wk8 - Aberdeen
  6. Friday night in the rain on astro when the opposition have been putting in shifts from early doors in butchers and offices and a two hour bus trip, easy gravy.
  7. Wk1 - Celtic Wk2 - Queens Park Wk3 - Stranraer Wk 4 - Dumbarton Wk 5 - Raith Rovers Wk6 - Dundee Utd Wk7 - Accies
  8. Wk1 - Celtic Wk2 - Queens Park Wk3 - Stranraer Wk 4 - Dumbarton Wk 5 - Raith Rovers
  9. Bazinga. Did I leave MY motorhome covering your driveway? The original post said there were likely to be issues as flipping between Wikipedia and excel multiple times its gonna happen. I also welcomed corrections.
  10. Exactly this, we'll have our feelers out and if Ketts secures a player he feels offers more then, as much as they can tell us to do one, we can rescind any offers made. It's called the Richard Tait paradox.
  11. I feel pretty confident that 2-3 first team starters in October will not be on the payroll on the 31st of August.
  12. Tierney can only deliver if there's scope for him to get on the park. The switch to a front two and Spittal playing consistently well hampers opportunities. However, maybe he should be putting in performances in training that make it hard for Ketts to ignore him. I'm not going to be drawn on any major judgements till the team sheets are announced on opening day (despite the league cup being 'competitive'). Even then we'll still be 4 league games in when the window closes and recent history suggests a flurry of activity when players think "aye OK, f**k it" when they have no other better offers. Wasn't Butcher and Okiba announced after the last window closed? As it turned out our January window was pretty good as it always tends to be when we've got our backs to the wall, summer was a dumpster fire as it always is when we've got wedge and you'd think due to Europe, recruitment would be easier. We always tend to be incapable of making hay while the sun shines. So for there's been nothing to suggest how we intend to set up either as a continuation of last season or a fresh approach. I suppose we'll get a sniff when we announce our first defensive acquisition as to the direction. Kev's money will be a major relief as will the 7th place finish money. We could be looking at being £1m down if it wasn't for that run, albeit with a gallus, crazy, Dutchman on the books for next year. That would put us in serious jeopardy, but then you temper it with comparing where we are to the rest of the 'non-cities'. Our only piece of business so far has been Paton who has done OK for me since arriving. One thing is certain he owes Ketts quite a lot and you'd imagine will put in 110% as gratitude for his faith in him.
  13. If that correct then he needs a Mark McGhee pre-season beasting to lose the extra chunk
  14. Ahh the "you used poor grammar so I'll tap out" defence from page 342 of the OF playbook.
