Kapowzer Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 I've liked the shouts that big Sol getting a month off to plough his girlfriend and go to a few BBQ's is gonna make him show up this season as a world beater. We should have arranged a game for tomorrow, even if it's First team vs kids. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Lasley away it's even interesting who'd be caretaker as Lucketti will surely get emptied too. Hammell/Clarkson/Kerr even as an emergency solution isn't hugely appealing. As for the next permanent boss, who knows - no one obvious given the evidence of the last 39 years of appointments. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felt that we were shifting to a 5 which looked like a good fit for all the players we have, the new bodies I think are fundamentally an upgrade on what we had, but nah. Same old. Also is Frazzle on here? What's this Frank patter? Aye I was the same. Was sure with the signings that we’d made we were moving to a 5 and that fresh change of approach at least gave me something to look forward to seeing going into the new season. Early days still but the signs aren’t good. If I’m made to sit through many more matches like the ones last season then sadly win, lose or draw I can see myself going along to games less and less. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ropy Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 (edited) Kilmarnock, Ross County or Livingston are are most likely opponents in the League Cup next round. Edited July 23, 2022 by ropy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Handsome_Devil Posted July 23, 2022 Share Posted July 23, 2022 I'm actually disappointed this is coming up already, we'll hardly have recovered from Sligo before the next let down is on the horizon. When's the last 16 played? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'WellDel Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Loving @Cooper Stand's positivity since his recent arrival on the site. I, for one, have certainly had my hood un-winked and am feeling a lot less stressed about our glaring defensive deficiencies, our lack of creativity in midfield, and our front line which is as toothless as the front row of a Sydney Devine (r.i.p) concert. (gag courtesy of Tam Cowan, OTB, 10th April 1996... maybe). I'm going to stick my neck out and say that, with this squad and my newly instilled optimism, we will make the top 11 at least. In GRAHAM we trust. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Handsome_Devil Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Tricky ties for United and Hearts in the LC last 16, there's at least two lower league sides in the quarters and we've got ICT at home...what could possibly go wrong? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archie McSquackle Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 Velma in 'Well colours just makes this more pertinent, well played sir. I'm also a fully paid member of the speccy club but even without glasses I could have seen how pedestrian we were on Thursday and last Saturday. I wasn't particularly fussed about Alexander staying or leaving last season but genuinely feel we've gone backwards from what was a pretty low starting point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZX1886 Posted July 24, 2022 Share Posted July 24, 2022 (edited) ‘IF’ Sligo were to knock us out on Thursday where would it rank in our embarrassing defeats? It would have to be up there as one of, if not the worst results for me. Thankfully I’m working till 8 and won’t be able to check the score until HT. a blessing.

Defeat by a League of Ireland team in Europe coupled with a loss to a Championship side in the league cup to start your season? Far from impossible to perceive. Going by Thursday's showing, and my lack of faith in Alexander to drastically change things, it's a thought that's giving me the fear already. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potentially tonked by a team of guys we freed on league opening day too... I actually think we'll win on Thursday but if we don't for me it's not as bad as MyPa but level with Stjarnen. Our previous European debacles have also set the tone for the season... It's very hard to compare it to domestic humiliations - you'd never say Sligo are like Albion Rovers, say, but then you're always unlikely to actually win the cup. But when losing on Thursday costs us at least 300k, never mind the psychological blow, it's safe to say it'd be an absolute disaster wherever you want to rank it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're no strangers to playing in Europe, they're well into their season and sitting top half of their domestic league, albeit only just. If they win I'll have forgotten about it by Christmas, but plenty of domestic league and cup games still haunt me years later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
