Swello Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 1 hour ago, capt_oats said: On a basic level I'd agree with him that we have the nucleus of a good squad. I think so too - I also think that a huge knee-jerk clearout and rebuild would be massively counter-productive at this point. We naturally need to trim the squad to a post-Covid size, there are players that are OOC and are leaving anyway, so we will get the chance to (hopefully) bring in some decent players to fix any glaring problems. I'd be happy with 5 "quality" players rather than 10 could-do-a-job types. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

well fan for life Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 I reckon that's mostly fair from @Alanos. I'll be keen to see what Sol looks like after a rest and an actual pre-season. Alexander turned Bevis into a serviceable defender and I'd say Sol looks like he's starting from a higher level than him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant night out you should try it. And it might wind some folk up but Tam Cowan is superb as a compere, as un PC as you can get. His Q&A session with Alexander on the stage was comedy gold. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rather than waste it on a big, long daft post here are videos of the 94/95 team, Michael Higdon, Lionel and Moult.

It was a big event last night,going by the numbering system there were 25ish tables typically with 8+ people on each. Obviously the team and staff took up a few of those but it's stepped up a gear since the last one I attended (Nicky Law's final season) The media team had set up screens and prepped a bunch of highlights packages, it was slick and well run And my group (including another English guy attending his first 'well match) all agreed Tam did a fantastic job Big Bevis is a lovely guy to meet, as expected Edited May 15, 2022 by RostokMcSpoons 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Handsome_Devil Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Has there been a single transfer rumour at all for us this summer? Can't remember seeing one if so and even a token linkage to the obvious (McAlear say) hasnt been spotted. I guess it's in theory better the club keeps the cards close etc and announces business when done but gossip about targets, renewals, friendlies etc is often more fun than the actual football... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rowsdower Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Maybe Alexander has found the solution for stopping transfer rumors, to go along with gaslighting us on injuries and the like. He's a villain.Saying that, off to find the list of out of contract players in Scotland, and promising championship guys.

Ron Aldo Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 Quite disappointed that O'Connor is away. Thought he had something about him when he played in the LC last year and that we might have given him another year after his loan spell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crazylegsjoe_mfc Posted May 15, 2022 Share Posted May 15, 2022 I can’t remember O’Connor doing anything wrong particularly, but the fact that when he had the run of games in the league cup, we got beaten by Airdrie and went two down to QOTS doesn’t reflect well on him. The fact that we went out and signed Sol and Ojala after that told me we signed him purely for numbers in the league cup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
