That is a dreadful side. But sadly I think we will be stuck with the seven under contract as we can't afford to pay them off, with the possible exception of Morrison who I wouldn't be surprised if his agent isn't currently hawking him about to championship sides.

There's a thread on the championship page so thought I'd start one for league 1. So for Falkirk. Released. Mark Durnan Jay Cantley Conor Sammon Akeel Francis Robbie Leitch Aiden Laverty Scott Mercer Morgaro Gomis Out of Contract. Charlie Telfer (hopefully offered a deal) Ben Hall (dugshite and hopefully goes) Aidan Connolly ( injured most of the season, hopefully offered a short term deal to prove his fitness) Sean Kelly ( signed a short term deal initially hasn't done enough to merit another) Paul Dixon ( getting on a bit, one of our better performers, injured at the minute, keep as a back up) Anton Dowds ( unsure of contract length, if it's two years he will still be with us if it's one year he can go, still young but hasn't done enough to suggest he will be a decent player, and has had a couple of injuries)

I really hope they don't give it to someone like Martin Canning, just because he's been at Hamilton, working on a shoestring, was instrumental in bringing through young players, his brand of football was honking. Our first signing would be Mikel Antoine Curier

The only saving grace apart from Holt meddling in contract negotiations is they will all be offered vastly reduced terms which you'd hope they all refuse.

Good luck. If Durnan could just concentrate on doing the basics ie head it and hoof it in any general direction he might be an average player. But all to often he tries to pretend he's something he's not and play out from the back which usually resulted in a calamity, his positional sense is dreadful, slow, and is partial to a complete rush of blood to the head which usually means losing a goal, penalty or a red card. I don't know if Buchanan is still with you lot but do NOT play them together if he does sign. If he was good for you once then be prepared to get a totally different version back.

Agreed. Let's just all be thankful he's away. Next out the door one step forward.

The bit I wonder about if true is who sanctioned it in the first place? I doubt that will happen now.

That was a missile the one at Ibrox. Leahys goal from out on the wing away at livi was peach aswell.

Hopefully Hall refuses aswell in that case. As for Connolly the most he would get is a short term deal to prove his fitness. And Kelly has done nothing to merit a contract either.

I'm glad Durnan is away, I couldn't care less if it's one a day till the whole lot of them are gone.

I can't see Alston going I think he will do a Sammon and sit tight picking up a wage for another season while contributing nothing, Miller wants chased though. He's absolutely done, fucking awful decision to give him a two year contract. One was enough.

Connolly would stick up for the players if they turned round and said we can't be arsed playing today, i've yet to witness him actually ask a difficult question to either manager or player, it's always the softly softly approach usually started of by " well ...... not the result we wanted today" or some similar guff

I think this will be a harder game for Morton than the Montrose game. Montrose play better football than Airdrie but Airdrie are a tougher nut to crack. Much as it pains me to say it I actually think Airdrie will do it, but it will be very close.

I wouldn't keep any of them. Why reward failure. The new manager might see it differently, but those players downed tools, if they can't even be arsed putting in a modicum of effort when things are going badly then they don't deserve to wear the shirt never mind get another contract.

Durnan and Buchanan were absolutely murder as a pairing for us. Although to be fair to Durnan he did seem to fair better when Buchanan wasn't alongside him. Both poor players though. His not even trying to get back to prevent a goal in our pumping at Firhill put the tin lid on him for me.

Strange that McKinnon leaves Queens Park, I'd have thought they'd have gave him a few quid to have a go at winning league 1.

If Rawlins have very deep pockets, ask Stephen Robinson what he wants for wages to manage us for a season, get us up then if he gets a better offer he's free to go. All the names being banded about are just a complete gamble which we cannot afford to do again.

If the new manager comes in and decides to keep the those that aren't on it then the same rules apply. Hopefully there will be another exodus in the coming days. The thought of the likes of Miller, Hall, Durnan, etc playing for us next season is nauseating.

I think I'd prefer it the other way round if it has to be them. Not convinced by either though. This just smacks of a calculated punt . Probably on the word of Holt who hasn't exactly covered himself in glory of late.

If the club are in discussions with other players anything other than there's the door is ludicrous. Not one of them deserve to wear the jersey.

Can't see anything other than an Airdrie win, we are an absolute gang and tbh if we did make the playoffs we would get pumped out at the first hurdle. Just hoping our season ends tomorrow night.

Airdrie 2-0 Falkirk Dumbarton 0-0 Peterhead Forfar 0-2 East Fife Montrose 1-3 Partick

Wonder how many of our duffers will rock up at Queen's Park next season

Clyde 0-0 Dumbarton Cove 1-1 Airdrie Falkirk 0-2 Montrose Peterhead 1-0 Forfar

Well done Thistle worthy champions shouldn't have been relegated in the first place. Hope you do well in the championship. Enjoy it
