101 Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Miller Fenton's loan deal with Berwick was only until January hopefully we can get him out to a L2 side now he has had some game time (11apps) albeit without setting the heather alight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaton Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 (edited) The quality of this season is poor. Mine has bobbled within 2 washes. Returned it and was told to make sure to wash it at 30, to which I said it's what everything is washed at anyway. The replacement I got did the same after 1 wash. Shite quality compared even to my previous Joma tops that didn't do this. Edited January 6, 2023 by Heaton Typo (40 in error. Changed to 30) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been back at the club a while now for rehab on his injury, meant to be back fit but Mcpake seemed to suggest he's staying as a member of the squad. perhaps that would change if we bring in more senior left back cover, ultimately he is beginning to reach an age where he'll need to be pushing for first team minutes reasonably soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't realise he was even injured, yes I would hope next season he gets time in the first team, but with limited experience it's not ideal, perhaps the challenge cup is a good time to give Edwards a rest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the next 5-6 months with us is best for him too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chubbychops Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Bring back Umbro 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 2 hours ago, Chubbychops said: Bring back Umbro That’d be quality. Can’t see it happening though. Only one team in Scotland has bespoke Umbro: Hearts. A club in our position will usually go for whatever is popular in the lower leagues or Scotland as a whole. TFG was incredibly popular in the early 00s in Scotland for some reason. Macron, Hummel, and obviously Joma, seem to be the most popular for clubs outside the big guns. Wouldn’t mind O’Neills. Done a good job with Partick’s kits it seems. Macron or Errea would be decent though. Don’t really want to see us go back to Puma and the likes of Nike/Adidas would just be catalogue numbers you see kids teams wearing at your local pitches. Looking at Scottish football as a whole this season, it seems like Joma is the most popular supplier. I like what Macron have done with Dundee United’s this year. They’d be my choice tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Passionate Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 8 hours ago, CallumPar said: Yeah. From what I heard, the relationship with Joma is dead. Two sides to every story, but apparently the feeling at the club was that we didn’t get the same service that we used to. Will be good to get a fresh start and hopefully some new ideas. Will be very disappointing if we don’t get bespoke kits anymore though. We didn’t plan for a third kit this season, but Joma refused to produce/provide anymore home or away tops after first batch sold out and gave us a rubbish catalogue third kit instead. Of course, both parties knew the deal was up and wouldn’t be renewed before we requested more tops, so it’s possibly not a great surprise that they weren’t very accommodating. But it seems like very poor customer service anyway - particularly since the contract with Joma doesn’t expire until June. Fans of other clubs probably better to ask about quality of other suppliers, but Macron kits always looked quite decent. Hopefully we don’t go for some sort of Nike/Adidas catalogue kit, that will be worn by Sunday league teams. We have had them all it feels like, Prostar, diadora, surridge, puma, macron humnel, joma, been with Umbro last 3 seasons and stuff is top quality with a good range, I seem to remember pars having some umbro crackers back in the day... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Wind Chime Jimmy Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Let's be honest here, regardless of a football shirts quality or indeed manufacturer, nobody over 30 year old should be wearing them. It's like seeing plasticine squashed in a balloon older men wearing fitbaw tops. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody should probably let the likes of Messi know that they’re too old to wear football kits as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Toun Clock Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 (edited) I didn't bother buying the home and away kit this season, very lazy with them both being the same minus the colour. I do quite like the third kit and might buy that for playing 7's etc. I felt last season's revamp of the green & purple classic and the maroon/navy this season was also very lazy. We've had two kits that should be looked at as collectors items and both have been very poor. My personal choice would be Errea but quite like the Macron stuff too. Agree with the above post from the Airdrie fan, their kits with Umbro have been class. Home one last season looked brilliant and the blue one they wore at East End earlier in the season was really cool. Be interesting to see what comes.

Surely Pendle is the garment of choice of Sunday League teams. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob1885 Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Don't think you could read anything into the Agyeman link, Belfast Telegraph likely just plucked us and Falkirk out of thin air. As much as I'd love a goalscorer, I'd doubt we'd bring a forward in without one of the four we've got leaving. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as I'd love a goalscorer, I'd doubt we'd bring a forward in without one of the four we've got leaving. Aye you're probably right mate. At times in the season I'd have let any of the front four go but it's now only really O'Hara that needs to prove himself this season. Wighton been really good since injury, Todorov scoring important goals and is a general nuisance, McCann comes off the bench to score the winner in his first game backk Also, if McPake's comments are anything to go by O'Hara isn't going anywhere. I'd need to get changed if we did end up announcing Agyeman. I notice Falkirk have managed to get rid of a few of their duds so I'd expect them to strengthen in the window. Equally McPake said we had some very interesting things going on behind the scenes. I take it the loans can play tomorrow. There's been no news on them going back, re-signing for the remainder of the season apart from forum rumours. I assume something must be confirmed ahead of tomorrow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Toun Clock Posted January 6, 2023 Share Posted January 6, 2023 Kane Ritchie-Hosler confirmed as staying on loan until the end of the season. Good news, now let’s get Mochrie, Fisher and Mahon and a couple newbies! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
