Can't make out who anyone is Not convinced that’s permanent. I think they were using stock up for the one off shirts. The front of the shirt carried the CI logo etc. Sure @Bainsfordbairn will find out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was the biggest Hetherington critic last year however last night he played very well in a free role and although every pass didn’t come off he absolutely tried to create, get forward and was always open for a pass. Just own it and say he’s you’re scapegoat and you’ll never like him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t know about the numbering though, and that definitely had nothing to do with CI. The idea had been (maybe still is) that the shirts be gathered up afterwards as collectors items (one to Kevin) and the other 19 to be sold off either by CI or the Club. The feeling within CI was that having already forwarded the additional funds accrued to the Foundation in pursuit of a sensory centre within the main stand, or failing that, a deserving community beneficial project attached to the club, then the shirts would best be dealt with by the club. The CI group felt that as of midnight last night, it was “mission accomplished” and that CI cease to exist. No-one had any desire to hang around the club beyond the event, and I am sure the club were happy for a nice clean ending too.

The numbers on the back of the shirts for the season will be white. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Fitzgerald Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 Rumours on Twitter that Jay Fulton leaving Swansea, still under contract so will be a fee involved, do we have a sell on clause for him?

One of the what-ifs added to the long line of talented players in Scotland that did not fulfill their potential for any number of reasons many of them tragic. Nobody doubted his talent and I hope he gets himself help to resolve his personal issues. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said something similar a few weeks ago. Stainrod was heavily incentivised on bonuses but was absolutely confident he could deliver at league 1 level (he did so in the premiership aswell). I totally get fans being aggrieved at Griffiths rumoured £1500pw, however I too would take him back if he was incentivised on goals, assists and wins, promotion. he'd then have to get fit, play well or he'd be dropped and effectively costing us nothing to very little. we know how hard it is to get good strikers in this league, he getting paid little on basic and 1 other striker to come in might work. can't see it ever happening though and if he doesn't get fit and do a deal like the one above which incentivises him to get fit then his career is over at 31 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt if he did get a grip of his life he would be an asset to most clubs in Scotland. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just finding a way to get his head in the right place. If there were any other obvious options I’d say leave well alone but at the moment I really can’t see where we are finding this 20 goal a season striker most teams that win leagues have. I get the fear we’ll end up with another Jamie Wilson type signing or a last minute young untested player on loan similar to Ruth which just won’t cut it if we have league winning ambitions.

Proudtobeabairn Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 His career is over. He's had chances at Celtic, Dundee and us to knuckle down and get his head in order but he can't do it. Anyone daft enough to take him on will regret it as quickly as we did. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebobsboy Posted June 26, 2022 Share Posted June 26, 2022 I'd say we need two strikers, that could get 10+ goals each. The issue of finding a 20plus goal striker is if you do find one and he gets injured where are the rest of the goals coming from in this team?, Morrison might chip in with a few. There needs to be more from other areas of the park. We have had problems last couple of seasons creating and scoring enough. With the current personnel i don't see that changing. Thats the biggest issue. Could have the aforementioned rejuvenated Griffiths but if he's stuck up top isolated with zero service he's not going to score either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
