This Charming Man Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Back in the 80's we had Iain Ferguson (had left Dens two years previously in '84) and Derek Ferguson in 88' on loan from the club formerly known as Rangers. Both these fellers would probably have been regulars in today's current Scotland pool call-ups, imho. Latterly, Scott Allan was always a level above anything we had available when he was on loan and probably controversially Simon Murray, on loan when the Scott Allan loan was terminated would still offer more than our existing striker options. Assume GB knows who Greg Stewart is come January, lol. No apologies for the pic from the 80's. Regards 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The contents however remind me of a scribbling on a toilet cubicle wall on a major local building site when I was a very young man in the 1980's. Something along the lines of, "From down the glen came Charles Gray men, a bunch of fairy dancers, one in ten were time-served men, the rest were fucking chancers." Pretty much sums up 90%+ of the above 'professionals'. Regards. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Godfather always had a bag of horehounds on him he'd bought from there. Vague memories of my Godmother calling it Ianetta's The Cobbler shop just up the road used to fascinate me when I was a nipper because it had one of those mannequins with a moving arm in the window that looked like a wee auld man hammering nails into boots Edited September 17, 2022 by Boo Khaki 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.T Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Pretty grim losing to Partick, Ayr and ICT. Not giving up hope quite yet but dunno how we’ll fix it without changes to players. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeeTillEhDeh Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 With this defence and goalkeeper we'll be lucky to make the play-offs. Just shocking again - it would be an insult to schoolboys to call it schoolboy defending. And I hope this gets Sweeney as far as f**k away from the team as possible - a complete liability on the pitch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossBFaeDundee Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 (edited) I feel harsh moaning about the manager this early with a squad that largely isn't his, so I won't. This team is a bunch of losers though, mentality of a league-winning team is nowhere to be found. Losing three out of our first seven, and two of them at home, is abysmal.

This is down to Nelms allowing McPake to spend the budget on 2 year contracts for a shower of spineless frauds. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
