Brechin City 2018 /19

[underpar 71]

Thought i'd be as bold to start a new one for the upcoming season . First off sad news about John Ritchie 's passing . Rip John .                                                                                                                                                                                           Playing Dundee on a Friday night ? Saturday date may have drawn a bigger crowd. Then again we play them in the Betfred Cup , strange that we'll face them twice  within  a week or two. Happy enough with Dougie Hill coming back but what we sorley need after last time out is forwards who can score goals .

[citydiehard 58]

Dougie Hill and Sean Burns  2 good signings but I would like to know who the 12 players are that have signed on so far.

[underpar 71]

And if there is a 15 to 20 goal a season striker among them..........

[Cold Feet 83]

We also need a keeper, those still to commit;

Paddy

Lynas

Storie

Orsi

Graham

Signed, by my reckonning

McLean

McGeaver

Hill

Burns

Tapping

Smith

Jackson

Spark

Sinclair

I must be missing someone......

[CITY1974 330]

I'd sign Barr and McCord 2 decent players and Barr speaks highly of City on the pod cast thingy

[hedgeman83 86]

Would like to see Paddy stay and get his chance. Don't think Dods and Barr get on

[underpar 71]

I'd like to see Finn  , Lynas and Storie sign on again  . Mc cord and Barr would be nice too .  A striker who can score  goals would be advantageous ........got all that Darren ?

[Overthehedge1 24]

Going to give Dodds some credit here, the signings have been very good, hill is a cracking signing that’s twice Dodds has sold him the club also tappin and sinclare are cracking players I think we are looking better already this year , let’s hope Jacko gets fit he’s what we are missing

No fussed about finn if I’m being honest, a midfielder that doesn’t score goals win tackles or dictate play won’t be hard to replace, stories could be a cracking player after a good pre season, I like Lynas but again easily replaceable , bobby Barr will go to Morton with ray but he would be a cracking signing, stay away from McCord he looks like he’s ate another midfielder

[CITY1974 330]

Has he filled out ? I always thought he was a decent player . Ah well it was an option .
Needing strikers though .

I think Finn ended up getting p o y etc and a few m o m so must have done something right but you are correct in saying he won’t be hard to replace like most of the squad

McCord is a big lad, but in the right team with the correct players around him, he is a top player

He's just taken his stays off.

Season tickets the same price as last season think that's pretty poor by the club. We are in a lower league and after forking out all that money to not see the team win a game last season . Goes to show how much they actually care about people who out their hard earned cash in to the club

I agree. Not even free friendlies or Bet Fred as an added incentive. And if u r 80+ you get a free one, so 50% of our support.

Paying this money Dods needs to hit the ground running or he's out before October.

Why? Our season ticket prices will be cheaper than Airdrie, Dumbarton, Raith, Stranraer, East Fife and Arbroath whilst they will probably be on par with Montrose, Forfar and Stenhousemuir. The prices have remained the same but in my opinion the season tickets were hugely underpriced for Championship football last season (although in hindsight we may feel we didn't get our moneys worth!). The season tickets has always allowed you into friendlies for free for as long as I can remember as well.

The walk up prices of £15 and £8 are slightly steeper than I'd have expected but unfortunately this is the going rate for League 1 football...at least half of the division will be charging the same if not more with several clubs yet to announce their admission prices.

If you have problems with the prices then bring this up at the AGM as they need to be agreed by the members, but I really fail to see why you'd have a problem with the season ticket pricing.

Disagree about Finn. 

Barr away to Dumbarton

[underpar 71]

I dont have an issue with the price of the season ticket , if you attend all the home league games there is still a very good saving to be made compared to walk up prices . I am however disappointed with not getting the friendlies included on it . I think they could have left that alone .

['Steve 340]

Where does it say you don’t get into friendlies with the season ticket? Friendlies have always been included on it and I don’t see anything to suggest that has changed.

[CITY1974 330]

Having spoken to a few committee guys recently I don t think money situs as rosey as we d all think so maybe justified at keeping prices as they were . We ve been cheep in recent years
