Walking Down The Halbeath Road
Chubbychops replied to Parscelona's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
If anything we will get a defender in. But I don't think we'll see anybody coming in today. Cardle and McPake can be done outside the window. Loans as well. -

Aye, good shout. Forgot about that. Not sure you will hear much though. -

Honestly doesn't bother me the Dundee thing. They generally have better quality players than us these days and the manager knows their abilities and personalities. -
Good result for the Pars at Tannadice after 3 weeks off and half a first team missing. Morton just going from strength to strength at the moment. Pars have beaten Morton in both games this season but seems like we're up against a different beast this time. Pars will still be short due to injuries again for this one, but hopefully a couple new signings before the game. Not sure if Morton are looking bring anybody in before the deadline but regardless they may well be bookies favourites for this one. Think this will be close and predicting a 1-1 draw.

Quite like the Clep bar. True old school wee place on Clepington Road. -

Think folk need to chill out a bit. Not saying that we should ignore the few (influential fan) murmers but the club are still actively trying to sign Premiership players. I genuinely think there's fuk all to this. The owners could maybe cover our (alleged)loses quite easily? Could even be factored in as part of their long term plan. -

He said the player we're after plays outside Scotland. -

Nobody on here has a clue about ours or Rovers finances in all truth. Just wishful thinking that each of our clubs are getting is wrong financially. Rovers clearly going for quick success and our owners are looking for something longer term. Time will tell how the two very different visions pan out. -

Going by the Motherwell fans comments, he sounds utterly dreadful. -

If folk in the know have concerns then I hope these concerns are put to the board and the board give some honest answers in return. It gives me the fear a wee bit as it has an air history repeating itself before Masterton got outed. I feel this academy is going to bring more problems than answers to be honest. It's sound s like a money pit, when we don't really have much money. This is a project that could've been started if we reached the Premiership and we were a bit better off financially. We need to get the first team in a better postion before pumping money into a youth academy. Bigger wealthier clubs in Scotland are not exactly producing a prodcution line of great talent from their academies. I'm sure they will have better funded, further reaching set-ups than ours too. -

Yeah. Dave McKay said we were after a striker. The plan at the start of the season was to go with a small squad but it's bitten us on the arse due to injuries, so they must've had a change of heart on the number of strikers we're running with. -

We are looking to get more depth in the squad so I would say getting a championship level striker in the door isn't pointless. Its another option if we're going to keep losing players to injury. There's also not a lot of choice in the January window. -

Rudden scored 12 for Falkirk in 31 games and scored 14 in 36 games for Partick in this division. Not bad return at this level. It's about as good as we can get in a January window. -
Not sure why we would think he's shite. Got us promotion in his first season up against Falkirk for the title. Got us competitive in the league above despite the worst injury crisis possibly in the history of our club. The team is well organised, the attacking set-up could do with some work but willing to give him time to sort that out.

Pars P-P Spiders New Date TBC
Chubbychops replied to Cardle is Magic's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Just watch out for your dodgy owners though. They dropped Kelty like a stone when they lost interest there. History could well be repeated when there's a downturn in the garage convertion market.(bullshit) The foundations that your owners have built are very shakey. All or nothing short term investment normally ends in tears. -

Can't see waterlogging being an issue. The main stand side of the pitch will be the biggest threat to the game. I think it will be on. Not been below freezing for over a day and temperatures have been up since yesterday lunch time. -

I had one of those wee beauties when we played you guys before Christmas. Best thing I've tasted in 38 years of going to football matches by a mile.
