    re: Chalmers: I can understand retiring to some country pile in Perthshire after making one's fortune, but he's 24 and can't hold down a first team place. A bit early to have an emotional attachment to living in the middle of nowhere?

    Because the money is buttons at this level. Livi haven't got a pot to piss in after having whored themselves out this way for years. ICT similarly not able to leverage the Tulloch Developments dime to get them out of financial trouble.

    Aren't KA1-KA3 still on Police Scotland's "don't bother" list?

    He came through at Dundee United, every chance he’s been born and brought up in Perth.

    Strapp has apparently just started following Dunfermline on twitter according to their thread. 

    By the rules of our thread, that means he is signing for the Pars.

    Although, having checked, he does follow us as well. Dunno if its a new thing though.

    Nah he’s followed us for a while, no idea how long he’s followed Dunfermline.

    God, I love and hate this time of the season.

    Oh, but we do. 

    This isn’t the first time you’ve mentioned this. You’re starting to give me the fear that your ITK and we’ll be going with McAllister and Reading is first choice. Reading I can just about allow* however we can scrap any plan to win promotion this season if McAllister is regularly starting at RB. Will actually be kind of glad if Sanders and Musonda move on as it’ll force the club to freshen up the defence.

    *I’d much rather both were back up.

    The overreaction to the signing of anyone who has so much as ventured across the border is laughable. He might well be shite but simply writing him off as a shite Glenndinning signing is total laziness. 
     

     

    This, as you say he may well be shite however given we already have two starting wingers in Murphy and Henderson he’s worth a punt. He just needs to contribute more than Amartey and McGeady did this season to be considered a success. 

    I’d be a bit more concerned if we were making this sort of signing for the RB position. They need to be an almost guaranteed success or we risk a Ahui/McAllister situation.

    I think he would be almost out whole playing budget.  

    Even with the Green and White £?

    He played a few games for U Cluj, not The Cluj.

    Kind of like saying he played for Rangers but it's Berwick Rangers. 

    A Glendinning tombola pick right there. Hope to God it's not true.

    It’s not like saying that at all though is it? Both teams are Romanian top league. You’re being negative about the signing before he’s even in the door, get a grip ffs. 

  6. Trying to get away from the SRE chat, interesting comments from Brown on website: “"It's a really competitive transfer market and I'm happy we've so far got the ones we wanted who were first choice for the positions we needed to fill. Obviously you're going to miss out at times but the squad's coming together nicely and we'd still like a couple more." 

    I hope he’s severely under cooking it by saying “a couple more” as we’re still 5 or 6 players away imo.

    I would rather see the seggie fence cut down and Ayr fans occupy the entire North Stand and terracing and give Celtic the SRE than have them in the end sections of the NortStand etc . 
    For the guys who don’t want to go to Somerset for games v Celtic and Rangers  , will the boycott include games in the Premiership should we go up ? 

    No, I would attend competitive games against them but not going to a friendly.

    The young uns aren't pleased. I know a lot of folk have mixed feelings about 'the Ragazzi' or whatever they want to be known.

    They are young and idealistic but you've got to respect their passion for the club. The short term cash boost wouldn't be worth the long term alienation of these young guys who've chosen being Ayr fans over the the easy option of the OF.

    Giving up the HOME end is a horrible idea.

    If they feel that strongly about it then just boycott the game.
