You'll get Robbie Thomson as player/ gk coach. Which isn't actually too bad for that level. Just don't ask for him to communicate with the defence or leave his line. 

 

What happened with mutch? Thought he looked a decent prospect when we were down there with you. 

We've had Thomson wasn't the best . Might be a decent backup and coach though.

Ken it’s not our business to care anymore, but I’m still slightly curious as to where Griffiths will end up. Part of me thinks he might get a lower-end Championship team based on reputation alone - the other part of me thinks he’s completely finished at any sort of decent level. 

Boys in the terrace were talking about it on last nights pod and I genuinely can’t think where he would go, Kelty would be ideal bar the name of the club. If he didn’t have the 5 kids you’d imagine he could get a gig similar to what Cummings got in Australia. Darvel perhaps but giving him a black rooster card could kill him off, just never been fit the size of his shorts says it all.

He was our 'keeper when we went up and although he does have his moments, mainly due to communication, he is more than capable of being No1 in league 1. He's been our gk coach this season with macdonald as No1 but hasn't done terribly when called upon either.

Just thinking. Who actioned the player release?
Don't really care. Delighted to see us starting rid the club of the absolute fraudsters claiming to be professional footballers. Still a bit to go.

Probably the last couple of days has been the busiest for me in terms of reactions to posts (the lyrics and the prefer eclectic McGlynn)

Many thanks, whether positive or negative, enjoyment or bewilderment.

It’s been a good day in more ways than one 😀

I'm sure we tried to sign Taylor-Sinclair last season but were priced out, so a little surprised he's gone given McGlynn's been appointed. 

I never saw him, right enough, so maybe he was garbage.

I realise it is with the best intention, but good luck in trying to get more money for some of these chancers from us.

Agree it won’t be an easy sell but they are contracted. We can’t just toss them out.

Each one will need to be negotiated individually, dependent on the length of contract, their wages and what they manage to obtain elsewhere.

Some will cost very little but in total it will be a not unsubstantial amount.

He’s absolutely fucking ganting. It takes a very special kind of defender to be worse than both Ben Hall and Gregor Buchanan yet he manages it quite comfortably. Think of Fernandy Mendy but left footed and slower.

Still better than Brad McKay of course.

I'm sure mcglynn would've been asked if he wanted any offered new deals.  Probably why this was released shortly after raiths statement. The fact he doesn't want to keep any of those shitebags is a promising start.

Liam Dick isn't great, but sounds like a bullet dodged. 

McGlynn is good, but does enjoy a Mendy or equivalent on occassion, usually on a two year deal.

Taylor-SInclair is one of those whose career just seemed to fall off a cliff. I remember watching him for Partick a decade ago and he absolutely strolled the Championship. Fast forward to playing for us, looked like he was playing with cement in his boots.

That's a decent enough clear out to start with

That’s the “easy to do” list. The next lot will be a bit more difficult.
