D'Jaffo Posted April 21, 2019 Author Share Posted April 21, 2019 Best atmosphere for home games in the league?! It’s fucking toxic half the time and this is during the most successful season we’ve had in years.This I can count on one hand the number of times we’ve had a really good atmosphere at Somerset this season. I’ve no complaints about our away support and the noise they make as it is genuinely pretty good. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no such thing as consolidation in this league. You rebuild every season around the three players who are on more than one-year contracts and you hope the manager doesn't f**k it. Being back in the top flight after four decades in the wilderness, with three guaranteed derbies, is worth absolutely everything to the club. McCall has to replace Shankland from somewhere next season. Even as absolute whipping boys, any top-flight team is a much better prospect than one whose seasonal highlight is four "derbies" against a team based sixty miles away. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember earlier in the season when Queen's were touted as the model Championship club, and then there's Falkirk.As for replacing Shankland what about trying to get Rudden in on loan, he's looked decent from the little I've seen of him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudden is a good shout. Not sure how likely he is to get his chance at Rangers. Ross Stewart at Ross County is another one I like. Not sure if he’ll cut it in the Premiership next season so they may let him go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Venom Posted April 21, 2019 Share Posted April 21, 2019 Couple of hings, l really like the new strips. I really liked the pink one this season, something a bit different, and I like the return to a same design/different colours change. On the Bellrock...creating a solid supporters travel club and atmosphere at games is commendable but it doesn't exempt you from having a bit of sense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've got the best atmosphere for home and away games in the league who back the team on, the drum is the best thing that the fans have done for years. I'm glad that they're doing well. I can remember dragging my late wife and kids all over the joint, the atmosphere was very good and The Bellrock was called The Toll Bar back then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Has anyone noticed that we appear incapable of taking a decent corner since Forrest got injured ? It's strange, because Cadden can fire good balls across with pace from open play (as he did for Millers goal on Friday), however our corners taken by him, McDaid or whoever, are all these pathetic wee chippy balls which are easy for teams to defend, that of course, is even if it gets passed the first man........... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rb123! Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 We've never been able to take decent corners, 50% of them don't get by the first man. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waniche Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 Really like the new kits but I was so hoping the home was something similar to this without the red line..............Maybe next year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 I don't think there's enough grass at the corner to allow a proper run up to fire the ball in. Players can take about two steps back before they're on the gravel and it's on a slight down slope. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thumper Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 we've got tits for life. Calvin Ayre makes more money before he wakes up each day than exists in the entire Scottish football league. He makes more during his morning piss than the entire annual sponsorship deal is worth. That cryptocurrency is an absolute mug's game is of utterly no consequence to him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
