Was during the miners' strike that the miners won, so not enough lecky about for floodlights. Had to dog school to go to it. What was the score? I have a vague remembrance of a cup game, about that era, against some yooni team that the goalie scored from a kick-out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one would be up for this; is this something we could arrange via the Supporters Assoc? And not just for one kid; a few ST for the local primary schools for them to distribute each week as they see fit. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Along the lines of the Well Society or new Thistle fans initiative. I’d be well up for playing an active part. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QPSpider1867 Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Sorry but the fan pics initiative is a shocker. Fan pictures celebrating goals are priceless and appreciate being in one but half time eating pies and minding your own business I find totally bizarre. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indee, crowd shots are excellent when they show the whole support or a particular group celebrating a goal etc……but zoomed-in, individual shots of people browsing their phones or eating a pie are a bit creepy at times Edited July 14, 2022 by Spider Rico 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a lot of workers on site and not exactly a hive of activity. Thought it was supposed to be ready this month? On the playing front I hope there are a few reinforcements lined up. The recent graphic showing the first team pool names with shirt numbers illustrated the squad really does need a few more bodies, especially in defence and defensive mid. When I visited last week there were about 20 guys working around the ground. The main things was lifting girders for the east stand but other stuff was happening too. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The £95 price for kids is a disgrace, if the club are that keen to encourage young kids to come to games, perhaps the committee members who qualify for free membership, because they have been Members for at least 40 years, and I think about half of them come into this bracket, plus a couple of ex-Presidents also,they could donate £95 to the Supporters Association and Keith could sort something out for some kids who cannot affrord this fee. Just a thought. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A group of us have already decided that we'll definitely be chipping in to get the young lad in question a season ticket anyway. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm gonna cut him a bit of slack. I thought he did well first half on Tuesday and it was his ball that made the opener. He definitely faded after half time and was rightly subbed but I think he's a decent player. His work rate off the ball is also excellent. something I especially noticed in the play off games. And during our ridiculous run of boring draws last season he was the only player showing any creativity. You're right though, Championship is a different level but I'd give him a chance to see what he can do 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QPSpider1867 Posted July 14, 2022 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Another centre half is surely a priority... very risky only having Fox and Kilday. I think Brown and Longridge may struggle this year. Centre back, midfielder and winger would be great. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there’s still a question as to what Brown’s best position actually is. I think he’s at his best in an attacking sense, especially in tight situations around the box but it’s clear Savoury will play that role. I don’t think he’ll struggle at all but I certainly don’t think he’ll be as effective if he’s deployed as the defensive midfielder. He’s definitely a championship level player if used properly 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a thought. As we know, the committee get all their best ideas from PnB so I’m giving them an out by highlighting that the decimal point between the 9 and the 5 is missing. A simple correction will resolve the fading goodwill. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
