Hope our win over the sort of Welsh is a bit less terrifying than in the rugby

Mmm... but can he mark the posts at corners?

If we do go up we'll still be one of the highest wage bills in the Championship.
There's not many clubs we'll lose players to. Most, if not all, of our squad isn't Premiership standard so would be sideways moves.
I'm confident we'll still have all of this squad bar Morrison next season if we want them.
I hope he gets a good move in the summer for a 4 figure weekly wage.

Calvin is our most important player imo
Agree with this 100%. He's been sensational.
Ive never been a huge fan but Morrison has been great as well this season tbf.

Not used to this..... its been so long since I couldn't wait to see the back of most signed players
Thinking exactly the same. Every Jan window for me for donkeys has been 'so, if we managed to ship out 12, or maybe 14 hopefully and bring in 16.. we might be ok'

I always got the impression that if the academy turned up a mix of Messi and Ronaldo we'd only get £125K plus add ons. We always seemed to be a cheap club to buy from.

Sorry but none of that makes NI a bad place to live. We have issues like that in Scotland too with certain football clubs but would hope that would never put anyone off living here. Glasgow is a great city to live in too, as far as I’m concerned.
Every country has its issues.
Which is why that post was specifically about the disgusting club that is Linfield and their reptile knuckledragging bigot fans. Which you seems to have conveniently ignored.
If you sign for a vile club like Linfield good luck going to the Supporters events. Better make sure you have access to the 'right' songbook.
I'm sure there's some nice family clubs in Norn Iron that would be a pleasure to play for. Linfield ain't one of them.

Let's be very clear here. Whilst Norn Iron may have improved since the days of Ian Paisley Linfield are a horrific club with horrible fans. Racially abusing a player last year just the latest incident. Adding a racist string to their already packed sectarian bow.
The year before a coach was sacked for vile behaviour around the death of a young Catholic abroad.
I dont think any amount of money would attract me to these reptiles.

Bet they are paying much more than us.
Maybe. But you've got to factor in having to live in Norn Iron and play for a club Satan rejected as it was a bit too extremist for his liking.
I'd take 1k a week to play at Salford before 2k a week to play for Sevco's paramilitary club.

Linfield
Go right to f**k UDA United.
Fucking Linfield. I ask you.

The working practices here are mind boggling .
Genuinely making no judgement as this might be standard practice everywhere but an observation I'd have is the match day seems to be the bulk of intensive, time-sensitive work and theoretically where the most ROI is - stream, audio and replays - so why wouldn't you A) pay commensurate to recognise that B) put the most time and expertise into that "product".
Also finding that extraordinary. Back to the 90s where a group of old fellas used to manage ticket sales for big games themselves we have always treated volunteers appallingly. Even when times were good financially for us.

Playing with a much higher standard of teammate certainly looked to pep up Dylan Tait. Could be an excellent acquisition for this year and maybe next.

I would have loved to have seen him kick on for us but it just hasn't happened. I hope the laddie does enough up there to earn himself a contract for next season and beyond.
All the best Ola.
Always seemed a really good dude. A good example of an ex player who'll get a good reception if he ever comes back. Never lacked effort or showed a bad attitude. Just wasn't good enough sadly.

You often see players with attitude problems at smaller clubs turn that round with a move to a big club.
Let's see if that plays out here.

Not having that.
If we don’t get promoted this year with our strengthened squad we are in serious, serious trouble.
Cannot rely on income from a cup run to fund the club even if we had won today we could well have gone out in the next round after a less than lucrative tie away to the likes of Ayr or ICT.
Or we could have drawn Celtic away and got 6 figures.
The facts are we have relied on cup money to plug financial holes. We haven't got any other levers to pull. That's now fucked so we absolutely better go up.
This result piles way more pressure onto the league campaign.

I've never bought into pitch related excuses. Both sides play on it, and we have enough physical players now that we shouldn't get bullied by anyone. We're not a bunch of sand dancers.

Why do we have this absolute loser mentality within our support to not expect to perform in both the league and the cup?
Cup run last year arguably was the only way to deliver this year's squad.
It's vital financially. This is a fucking disaster

Sam Long lettuce wrists at the end there. GK is the weakest area of our team by a distance.
Said that a couple of weeks ago. Hogarth is no better. We need to get both bolted in the summer.

Unspeakably bad.
It's not just the embarrassing result. It's the financial loss. Thos could be 2 or 3 players in the summer now lost.
Got exactly what we deserved today. Nothing.

Some wild overreaction to today.
An experiment that went wrong but unbeaten run preserved. Worth finding out what the second string could do when pressure was put on them - not very much as it turns out.
Everything is copacetic

Adding nothing to the thread but the more I hear about what a total c**t Hartley was in general whilst at the club the luckier we are to be shot of him.
It's disgraceful he lasted so long.

I really hope we beat these niggly c***s. They are shite.
We've been dross but still comfortably the better side.
