It’s definitely not an express train it’s more like the last train home from Edinburgh. Every now and then you think your finally free and another made up Fife town appears.

Honestly the level of enthusiasm within our support, and the level of excitement playing us elicits in opposition fans, I’d not be surprised if we end up with a match thread being started after a match at some point this season.

Tell ya what, even speaking as a non Dundee fan, I really hope this gets built for a couple of reasons. 1) new stadiums are cool. 2) I’ll never need to see someone comment on a courier article that thinks it’s getting built on the park ever again.

Build it on Moncrieffe island, away end only accessible by boat, similar to Venezia (or possibly a.n.other Venice team). Reopen Princes’ street station, add in a couple of pedestrian bridges that link with S.Inch for Bus/Train Station in town and the planned Walnut Grove P&R.

I find it quite interesting that the size of land keeps getting used as a negative in the Courier. there was an interview years ago with SBrown where he complained about having to clear the whole site when it was snowy/icy, but I’d have thought generally it’s a boon. However, I suspect there is scope that the rumoured Oudenarde ground and the spinning the land as a negative are gonna result in the browns swapping the McDairmid land for land at Oudenarde, and getting the new owners to build the bridge(s) that Geoff has refused to build at Oudenarde, which has stopped the village getting built.

Is Ally McBeal buying Saints?!

It’s not rewriting history when pretty much everyone could see how poorly he was being managed. Just further evidence to how fucking awful the previous management teams were.

Even allowing for all the bizarre takes, the thing I find weirdest is the people who post The Club’s Facebook posts without comment as though people might’ve missed them.

Mate, you know every single saints fan will still have a reference to the double on whatever the 2071 equivalent of twitter is!

Ah shite sorry.

Maybe being overly pessimistic, but “not worse” doesn’t feel like what we needed from this window…

BBC Sounds suggests yes.

Is there a book on how many micro seconds it takes them to mention Michelle Mone’s frozen assets on todays show? the fact it’s also an Off the Ball derby day you can practically hear their stiffies.

It’s maybe a me problem, but I absolutely hate the fact they’ve started up loading the team lines in numerical order.

Knowing Sky Sports someone called Robertson is signing for St Mirren.

He also maybe feels going back to being assistant would be a step backwards.

Price of Football podcast covered this a few weeks ago. Concensus seems to be it depends transfer to transfer, but if you’ve got decent negotiators at the selling club you’d push to make sure they are for length of time the player is at club not length of contract.

Presumably if Charlie Adam was loans manager and he’s now away they’ll be looking to rearrange some of their loans.

Club release list from the end of last season. Fact he’s not on both lists is testament to the level of f**k up it is, if we paid anything, let alone the alleged amount.

Jamal Hector Ingram had been a free agent for about six months when he signed for us. I’d completely forgotten about both Sandiford and Solomon Otobar. Also the alleged player was released at the end of last season. Had to google the news story to double check his first name…

The player I’m talking about was given a one year contract, never started a match. And I believe the fee we paid would put him into or at least approaching the top ten most expensive players we’ve ever bought. The fact we paid a fee was also allegedy only down to an administrative error….

No. Which is part of why it’s so fucking negligent. The amount we paid with zero chance of recouping anything is a disgrace.

Allegedly one of the players we signed is accidentally one of the most expensive players we’ve ever bought. And not one of the obvious ones…

If it’s the same story I’ve heard it’s so dangerously negligent we’re lucky that the club is still here.
