Northsea80 Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 Portacabins being dropped off outside Lesser this morning. Might suggest they’re going to ramp up the numbers beyond the half dozen who seem to have been constructing the stadium until now. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some would argue, I would say unfairly, that First Team have been playing the last few months without any discernable Tactics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s smashing, really enjoyed that. He fair looks and sounds the part. Tricky part will be getting everyone to buy into it. Big culture shift needed. New manager will need to be well on board too, and I’m guessing Beuker has got to be all over that appointment. Would that point to us appointing a coach rather than a ‘traditional’ manager? Who the fk knows, just mad, exciting, new, innovative, deep and meaningful speculation… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hampden Diehard Posted January 20, 2022 Share Posted January 20, 2022 Hopefully, that's us on the move on and off the park. Very impressed with the honest assessment of the Alloa game by Breuker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a sequencing thing. The spot described is where the temporary changing rooms are to be sited. I believe these are pods, manufactured offsite and ready to go other than services hook-up. Might be a temporary space for some of the things holding back the Pavillion phase, which in turn ties into the redesigned West stand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interesting interview, says he's had a couple of offers already but they "didn't feel right", also says that he is open to working abroad. Him and his family still live in the North East of England. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying it’s a theory I’m particularly in favour of, but a theory nonetheless. Indian Super League finishes in March. Owen Coyle manages there. Like our benefactor, he is a Gorbals boy and they may or may not have crossed paths over the years. Lived in the area for years and often saw him out running or at the sadly departed Michael’s chippy. You could spin it two ways if you wanted. Disastrous spell at Ross County and a yesterday’s man who hasn’t reallty moved with the coaching times. His record after Burnley is, ahem, below average. Conversely, a former English top flight manager, with experience at Championship level and the MLS, who has had relative success at a lower level in Scotland. It wouldn’t be my pick by any means, but I’m scrambling about looking for clues and logic as to why it might be March! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't explain the March timescale, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qpfc Posted January 21, 2022 Share Posted January 21, 2022 Genuine question, is Will Baynham actually still at the club? I get he had a serious concussion back in July and he’s not been able to play but he’s not even mentioned as being out in previews anymore and doesn’t appear to be in any training pictures, whereas he was in them a few months back. A real shame how it’s panned out for him this season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
