gaz5 Posted April 30, 2020 Share Posted April 30, 2020 I believe so.O'Grady seems to have been on scholarship in America then recently at Dunipace.Both from Falkirk so chances both are known to Ferguson.Fantastic player Jamie. We were extremely lucky to get him as not a lot of people knew him when he came back from the US. But he knows Brown from their time together at Stenny, before he went to America.I think he could have gone higher than the EoS Prem, so think he'll be a great signing for you guys.Scored 11 from CB for us last year, including the winner from 30 yards against Bonnyrigg. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked good when I saw him play for the pace. Craig Donaldson is a bizarre signing for rose hes a good player but if the rose are trying to get back to being one of the big boys not sure hes the quality you are after.

You need money to buy quality though Alan! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deanburn Dave Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Stating the bleeding obvious here but every club will have huge financial challenges over the next few seasons. There ain't going to be a lot of cash floating about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blowin In the Wind Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 Have watched Lithgae as an opposition fan (Broxburn) for the last 3 years and have to say they have gone backwards. Difficult to say why as they have a lot of individual talent. They have often struck me as a team of individuals relying on TC to score goals to get them out of trouble and that may be the issue. The winners of the EoS this year are definitely the best Team in the league but I don’t think they are top when it comes to individual talent. Lithgae need to be more competitive and compact if they are going to challenge next season, but I’m sure they will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Against you at Albyn park where we lost 4-3)Ferguson has brought in several players, who have done ok - but also had more than a few injuries to deal with - so 6 months into the job - the jury remains out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which of course goes towards the maintenance etc. etc. So picking up the phone is quite a costly exercise when you train 2 nights plus a game. All you’ve got to do is practice your social distancing.

GordonS Posted May 5, 2020 Share Posted May 5, 2020 We were supposed to be playing Bo'ness at home on Saturday just passed. Assuming this season gets blown off and Bo'ness go up, that'll be a minimum of three years without a derby at home. When was there last a gap of that length in derbies at Prestonfield? And how long until the next one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
