The Grass Is Greener. Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 I’ve been quite happy with the progress Ron has made so far but he’s shot himself in the foot here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 After all these years, bigger clubs still trying to push for a SPL/SPL2 set up, which would end up killing the smaller full time sides as any relegation from the 2nd tier would bring a massive drop off financially. Guess that's part of the plan though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leith Green Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 (edited) I think the absolute worst thing about this is all these people frothing about terminology . How is a half Peruvian Koala Bear based in the good old US of A supposed to know about our wierdy Senior and Junior fitba setup? Jeez, guys get with the programme - its all about big screens and helipads now. Oh, and maybe some hot water in the bogs Ron?

Derry Alli Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Gordon could give any interview he likes and could talk of killing every child under the age of 7 and it still wouldn't be as difficult a read as that @FortescueFotheringhamSmyth's posts.

Zing. Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Signing some youngster on loan from Boro instead of Jamie McCart. Some job from Mathie tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was never convinced about the McCart chat - Hibs seemed to want him as some kind of backup to our 4 system when its plain that he only really operates well as part of a 3 CH system. An oddity of a period tbh, and I would have been uncomfortable with us paying a lot for someone who "might" be replacing Hanlon in a few years. Mathie etc has done well on signings so far this window................with the glaring exception of the area we are woefully in need of shoring up Bizarre 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potentially wasted our European run too. Acted faster and got a centre half in then McGregor doesn’t play in Croatia… 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
