Bairnardo Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 1 minute ago, Grangemouth Bairn said: Williamson isn’t reliable enough fitness wise to be our first choice RB in the squad. Yeats is better in midfield imo and I’d rather see him there. Yeah, but the sort tof overriding point here is there's not point in having 2 of Watson and Mckay on the basis that they can play RB. I'd say if you keep either one, they are both 3rd best CH and 3rd best RB in the squad. There's issues with the 2 RBs ahead of them for sure, but that doesn't mean we need two basically identical backups, when releasing one somehow might mean we can get a starting RB, or strengthening elsewhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuzzydunlop Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Interesting point made on the Falkirk Daft Podcast about Morrisons drop in form since Yeats moved from Right Back. Its a good point that Morrison would prefer a quick ball and McKay doesn't have the skill to do this so once he gets the balls and works out what he is going to do with it, the opposition defender has shut Morrison out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bairn88 Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 A “weekend” game moved to a Thursday night? Absolute fucking shite. Hope they’re footing some of the leccy bill given we don’t even get any extra money for it being on TV. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glasgow_bairn Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 Is there anywhere that hold an online archive of old photos of the stadium at Brockville? When searching online it’s just really the same few images. I was specifically looking for any photos of the inside of the main stand or the outside of the main stand for some reference material 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrDust Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 20 hours ago, FFC 1876 said: I've seen that mentioned before but I'm very doubtful of it, would just be like having Mckay there for me. I'd definitely rather have him at centre back than Mckay right enough though. Got to think your likes of Seb Ross and Blair Sneddon are chomping at the bit to leave and get some football. Whether anyone will take them is another question. I'm sure Watson played the majority of his first season at United as a right back but as you alluded to, coming back from a serious injury isn't ideal coming back to play full back. I can see him going out on loan if he can get a club, I don't think he will get much game time with players for sure infront of him and I include McKay I wasn't that bothered when Watson left the first time but when he returned he improved us but got dragged down to the level we were at back then. I'd guess he will be on a decent wedge too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Springfield Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Think it’s fair to say we won’t see any additions to the first eleven, unless we can loan or move players away. We’re heavy in squad numbers and we certainly don’t need others as spare jersey fillers. If and it’s a huge if we somehow get Williamson fit and on form, we won’t see much change, still think another striker could be the difference come season end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Kinnear Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Got the new Bairns View weekly newsletter. The club are really improving communication with fans. Also well done for cutting ticket prices for the QOS game to £10 for adults and £5 concessions. A lot of folk struggling just before Xmas and every little bit helps, hopefully get a good gate. Hope it’s £10 for away fans too as it grates me when clubs reduce prices and still charge full price for away, apart from the OF charge they fuckers double 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear they are also trying to sell 25 ST’s at £5k each for 10 years with some extras attached. Now that is a decent idea for raising cash rather than giving it away. -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference atmosphere wise with our game against the Pars and Edinburgh was night and Day. A full house is so much better.

I think the idea with reduced prices for QOS is as much about trying to help fans who are struggling as it is about raising funds. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As posted it’s a great offer/gesture from the club especially during these difficult times. However your first sentence is way off mark if you listen to the recent podcast and what I’m hearing about the clubs finances. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
