Playing against shite like Forres, Rothes and Elgin every summer is good for fitness, but it doesn't get you sharp for the league cup and start of the league campaign. Could it be possible that the Aberdeen and Hearts fans thought the same for us, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Point taken, but to describe these sides as shite is disrespectful to the part time players, management and volunteers who give so much of their time freely to keep their clubs operational. All of us know guys and pals who make sacrifices for the game in junior and highland league teams. It serves us better as fans to remember our own humble Highland League origins 26 years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highland Capital Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 I went on the Errea website earlier to try and work out which shirt template it was without success. I hope it's stripes again (though last seasons half and half shirt was alright). Hopefully it's not a Rangers-esque block blue top though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PB1994 Posted July 15, 2019 Share Posted July 15, 2019 It reminds me of the 2012/13 top from the front. Big fan of it actually 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiG Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I like it to be honest. Reminds me of our 2012/13 (?) strip although it also does look like someone has run over the tops in a tractor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Highland Capital Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Nah, not a fan. Perhaps it looked better when they designed it on the computer, but black dots on blue doesn't work. Perhaps had all the dotted hoops been red it would've been better but it's pretty dull IMO. The club have been big on the whole 25th anniversary stuff so it's strange that they haven't gone for something more unifying, especially given our last few tops were pretty evenly red and blue. In saying all that though, adults wearing football tops as casual wear is the calling card of a moron so it's not like I'd be wearing it anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The panel won't always be the same four voices; there will be opportunities for other supporters, and people connected to the club, to be involved in future episodes as panelists, guests or contributors of some sort. I would guess that having spent quite a lot time together planning, putting together and promoting the first episode, the original four of us will probably want to continue to decide episode content, recording dates, editing and so on, and then from there see who else could be involved, based on expressions of interest or ideas they've suggested or on their knowledge about particular areas or whatever. However, these are such early days for the podcast that we haven't really discussed that side of things all that much! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Capital Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 One thing I did notice about the discussion on the podcast was for Keatings to be our main goalscorer/striker. I thought he'd be more of a replacement for Polworth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So they may not be far off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he could probably play in a conventional 4-4-2 as well though, giving the squad (in theory) a bit more versatility. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Capital Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Must admit I haven’t followed his career that closely, but has he ever been an out-and-out goalscorer? I always thought of him more as a creator/number 10. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
