  1. It would be nice if we got the whole of the North Terracing (North Stand will probably be the name going forward) and just gave away fans behind the goal and the corner of the main stand. Not sure if that would happen but it would certainly help with the losing the toss nonsense not having quite a bad effect. 

    If it stays similar to now i'd be surprised if the fence will remain as it'll look pretty ugly on a shiny new stand, most grounds now have those big covers that effectively segregate home/away like Tynecastle below as an example. Benefit of doing that i suppose means it could be removed to give us all of North Terracing if it's a smaller away crowd. Then if you're getting likes of an Arbroath with about 50 fans you could just shove them in the main stand corner and Ayr fans would be able to roam from SRE right round North Terracing to Railway End if suitable.

  2. There will certainly be stuff going on behind the scenes but it's just a case of time as always and all the correct pieces needing to fall into place etc for anything to happen.

    Re Grass... There's a development going on at my work which has involved the laying of new turf and there's sprinklers and hoses out on it just now, plus i'm pretty sure sports clubs get exemptions from hose pipe pans considering you never see any English clubs pitches suddenly going brown during summer.

    I was hoping the laying of a new pitch was a sign that we intended to keep the ball on the deck and not be quite as direct.

    Think the new pitch is more because the work which was done last summer made the drainage poorer, at the Partick game at Somerset just to the right of the centre circle to the Railway end side of the halfway line looking at it from the North Terracing, water was actually coming up from the pitch when the ball bounced as if it was almost waterlogged.

    Bollocks to this chat lads. Who we thinking we’ll sign this week? 
     

    Putting money on Danny Mullen. 

    Yeah i think we should be going for him, almost put that on here the other day, hasn't really blown the water any season in terms of goals but he always seem to consistently get between 5-10 goals per season.

    I hope the club have learned there lesson from a few years ago and intersperse pictures of tractors and workmen with football news. 

     

    I can see us going in to the week of the league cup starting with no more signings and the club will be posting pictures of grass growing. 

    These weren't posted by the club, the pictures are from the companies Facebook page that are doing the work.

    Any idiot can spend a load of money on very good players. It’s not as if he uncovered any gems. Everyone he signed in the summer were known to fans with an interest in Scottish football and he couldn’t get them to work. 
     

    Doolan looks like he knows what he’s doing but it’ll be interesting to see how he does once Thistle lose the likes of Turner, Holt and Docherty on top of Tiffoney.

    He'll probably say about how in the Rangers game it was probably the best performance of the season and the usual McCall winter injuries were healing up.
