He shouldn't be having the final say on who we sign. Especially at the minute. Unless they already know who the next manager is going to be and he agrees. It's lunacy otherwise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would like to see what he can do in a good, organised team rather than the shite sides he's been a part of since returning from Livi. Hope Gordon gets punted though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaggyness Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 What’s happened to Penrice? He was class when he first came on scene Being 'coached' by Gary Caldwell at a critical stage of his development and being played in rank rotten teams won't have helped. He also seems to have bulked out a bit which has made him lose any pace he had as he is fairly slow for a full back. He's not unfit just not pacey enough to look any better than competent. Also he hasn't perhaps been seen in his best position of centre midfield a lot as he's down the pecking order there for us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smurph Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 I’m also enjoying the ruthlessness. It’s a step up after all, Cardle had “one more season” and has managed to turn himself into a bit of a hero. Whilst we obviously have to replace his key goals and assists from this season, we’d probably be looking at doing that anyway. Imagine Foster would stay and it’s looking ever more likely Penrice is departing, but seemingly we’ve replaced him with a 6 or 7 out of 10 left back and I don’t think that’s any difference from “Penners’” input. Have to laugh at Williamson, fair enough for making a decision but he’s got football pie all over his face. Few more to leave hopefully, excited to see who else we bring in and it’s nice to get some business done early doors. Hope the week continues to be busy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cilitbang Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Penrice is the epitomey of a footballer getting comfy. Lost all desire to improve/ have an impact on games when he knew he was guaranteed a starting position regardless of performance. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steakngravy Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Sorry to intrude guys but can you tell me if you still have the curry pies on sale in the ground as I thought they were very tasty. Welcome back by the way I for one thought you were harshly treated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 (edited) No idea what the situation will be with catering once things re-open, the provider could easily have gone bust. I've thought for a while pre-pandemic we could do better with options available, without going full Forest Green Rovers. I suppose if it's outsourced then the club don't really care as they'll get their up front free. Think the last time I remember getting something was a warm day and I decided to get an Irn Bru, lassie poured me a drink out of a 2L bottle that had £1 written on it, and charged me £2.50 for a wee cup. Dick Turpin / mask etc. Edited May 20, 2021 by Fuctifano 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 The drinks part always gets to me. Is it really that expensive to get one of the shitty syrup machines to get a cold drink rather than an often flat and warm serving from a bottle? It's incredibly low-rent. The pies are really good if you get them fresh, but a bit more variety would be nice. As long as it isn't pizza. The "pizza" they were offering was utterly rancid, and made me existentially sad just to look at. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Except for the odd ground, seem to remember Killie being more reasonable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightmare Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Sounded like he was pretty confident in Foster being back next year when mentioning that signing Holt will allow Foster to move back to RB. Seems like he’s trying to convince Bell to play another year as well. Confirmed that Williamson has indeed signed a pre-contract, so you’ve got to imagine that will be Falkirk or QP as I can’t think who in the level above would want him or who else in the third tier could afford him. No mention of Penrice at all was interesting. Not in the ‘he’s going elsewhere’ camp like Williamson but not in the ‘talks ongoing’ side of things either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JagsCG Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 Would appear there is an element of truth in the Dobbie rumour then. Good to hear he’s trying to get Tiffoney on a permanent deal (possibly Ross McIver too). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well. Penrice likely to be away though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
