Thom & Gerry Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Depends on how matey he is with Macdonald/Munro but would have thought Brora was the more likely even though he is from Wick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elgin loon Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 I thought he was based in Edinburgh a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom & Gerry Posted April 8, 2017 Share Posted April 8, 2017 Was a rumour he was going down there but never materialised. Think he bides in Inverness now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 In the North of Scotland Cup final at Clach a few years ago, he was winding up the Brora fans at every opportunity. He's a proud Wicker and surely wouldn't sign for Brora. Love Gunny, but he just hasn't been the same these last two seasons. My money is on Wick or Buckie to sign him.

MOFOREVER Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Wherever he goes he has a few seasons left in him. Been a thorn in our side for years but fair play to him and good luck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom & Gerry Posted April 9, 2017 Share Posted April 9, 2017 Buckie could be a good shout. Some of their players train with Elgin in Inverness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am Muilleach Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Local paper says that Shane Sutherland has signed for another two years. Great news. Hopefully his op has gone well and he'll be back for the early part of next season - whichever league we're in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom & Gerry Posted April 22, 2017 Share Posted April 22, 2017 Bit of a gamble in some respects, no guarantee he'll even play again and at what level if he does. Hope it pays off big hole in finances if it doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom & Gerry Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 As the season draws to a disappointing end I was wondering what thoughts Elgin fans have on next season. What players should we try to keep? Will the manager still be there? My own thoughts are it's a bit like the end of an era with a number of players possibly moving on. Can see Gunn, Moore, possibly McPhee and Reilly moving on. Could be in for a couple of years rebuilding. I wonder if the manager will stick it out. He looks a bit disillusioned and at a loss on how to put things right at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB_Bino Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 I wonder if the manager will stick it out. He looks a bit disillusioned and at a loss on how to put things right at the moment. I don't proclaim to know the inner mind of Jim Weir, but the fact that he spent so long out of the game and struggled to find a way back in, would suggest to me that'll ride it out for a little longer. There were serious rumours that he applied for our vacancy earlier in the season so maybe he does have 1 eye on a job in the central belt, but I doubt he'll walk from Elgin any time soon.

afca32 Posted April 30, 2017 Author Share Posted April 30, 2017 Really can't sum up the disappointment in words. After the win over Clyde in February everything was looking great. Now I'm doing my best not to think about the whole thing. The only positive is Shane and Soapy being here for another two years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gordon9736 Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Like every other City fan, I'm gobsmacked at our collapse in the final quarter of the season. I told a colleague about the end of Feb that we'd be at the top of the league within the month. We were that good, within touching distance and games in hand (if only they hadn't been postponed), Then Shane's injury. I am quite happy with the squad we've got in general. I don't understand why, with Shane injured, we never recalled Cullen from Rothes. He scored 3 in 5 games for a struggling team before he was posted away temporarily by the RAF. I agree about Gunny's time is up and hopefully he'll get a run out on Sat to say bye in case it is his last game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afca32 Posted May 1, 2017 Author Share Posted May 1, 2017 I'd like Jim to stay (even if I don't particularly like some of the things he says and does he's still largely done a good job) but if he were to go, my drunken and nostalgic self would like to see Pele return to his boyhood club for a second chance. Just keep him out the Garmouth hotel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afca32 Posted May 7, 2017 Author Share Posted May 7, 2017 Congratulations to Shane. Hopefully see him back soon. We need him on the basis of the last two months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeAreElgin Posted May 7, 2017 Share Posted May 7, 2017 Jim and Gavin deserve another chance, even if the end of this season was nothing short of an embarrassment. Even with our shocking form we had a hugely positive goal difference and two players nominated for player of the year.Hopefully we can build on our weak points and retain our strong players for a positive campaign next year. A title challenge would be nice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom & Gerry Posted May 8, 2017 Share Posted May 8, 2017 Interesting to see who we keep. Think it's time for some of our longer serving players to depart but can we get better players in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
