Happy to rant about anything and everything but when they're offered with the chance to speak to someone at the club they all fill their breeks and head of to Simpsons garden centre instead. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Capital Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 Is it just me or is CTO crowded by lunatics more than it's ever been? There used to be some good writers on it at one time, but now it seems to be filled with bores, morons and dullards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now its a dick-measuring contest to see who the biggest superfan is, and anyone who disagrees with anyone else's opinion is shut down. This supporters trust bollocks in the last year or so has made it almost unreadable for me. And also a lot of folk are not acting like spoilt brats as we aren't in the Premiership anymore and getting to cup finals. The harsh reality of regressing to our natural level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Capital Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 I’m sure during that time there was a lot more insider rumours etc. that brought a lot of discussion, while there was also a lot more in-depth tactical stuff. Nowadays it’s just all the same old hangers on patting each other on the back until a thread is a locked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted November 28, 2018 Share Posted November 28, 2018 You'll find there's a lot more folk wanting to stick their oar in when the team are shite than then we're alright. This is the worst position the club's been in for years so naturally there will be lots of witch hunts and general cuntness that we're used to seeing. Thank fuck we have this website for some 'sanity'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Mantis Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 A bit ironic that so much of this thread is about CTO then, no? I think you’ll find most club forums are the same, it’s just that historically they’re used to their team being shite, whereas we’re just going to have to get used to it. We’ve been spoiled up till now. Who’s Gatepost then? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScarf Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 Draws have killed it already IMO. We just need to make sure we stay above QOS and Morton. The top 3 will remain that for the rest of the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely all 3 of Partick, Falkirk and Dunfermline won’t remain absolutely shite all season? We really need new signings in January. Surely Partick have to improve after having the SAS make one of their players breakdown into tears. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Capital Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 I really really *REALLY* can't see what Chalmers adds to the team to get a start every week. Rain or shine, he's the first name on the teamsheet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Highland Capital Posted December 1, 2018 Share Posted December 1, 2018 I wonder if in hindsight had Elbouzedi stayed, he'd have broken into the team. He'd certainly be coming off the bench from time to time at least. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 As far as I am concerned Ridgers has been our Player of the Season BUT he fecked up the first two goals and the defence clearly lost concentration and positioning for all three goals. And then Oakley should have netted a hat-trick. Robbo cant give allowances for individual mistakes. We are having a poor season albeit I bet that most of us would have taken our league position and our points tally in pre-season. I recall some positive comments about our squad at the start of the season as well. It is probably as much bad misfortune that we have had more than our share of injuries and some unforeseen losses. It is always a gamble going for the cheaper option of bringing in potential with a history of injuries. I also feel that the "unbeaten run" nonsense was having a negative effect and lets hope that getting the monkey off our back will pay dividends. I would suspect that we had two "goals" at the start of the season - to avoid relegation and to bring back some financial stability. Watching the purse strings and improving is evidently a very difficult task. We have brought in a management team who have been tasked with balancing the finances. That must be both understandable but very frustrating for Robbo. I was disappointed but not surprised that he kept the yoof on the bench yesterday BUT here are my suggested New Year Resolutions. Ditch the "hangers-on" (There must be spondoolachs for OFW ?) - take an increasing risk on blooding some of the Under 18's and look at spending a bit more cash on two journeymen - one with some midfield panache and one with a striking record. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyline Drifter Posted December 5, 2018 Share Posted December 5, 2018 1 hour ago, Snafu said: I do remember we were interested in taking Ryan Dow off County back in August, now at Peterhead with his loan period up in January and his contract runs out in the summer, maybe take him in the next window, maybe give us another attacking option, not quite what I had in mind but I wouldn't complain. Can't imagine him coming here on loan but if he was released that would suit us and maybe free up a wage for County. Ryan Dow has already played for both Ross County and Peterhead this season. He cant play for a third club. He will have to spend the rest of the season with one or other of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see he's played just over 360 minutes of football with Hearts. Not exactly making much of an impact it seems. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RiG Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 Rumours abound that Polworth has turned down the offer of a new deal and is "considering his options". I'm sure unlike Tansey, Meekings, Shinnie and all the others before him who have said this same thing he will definitely sign a new contract... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
