Bob McHugh to EK, thought that might have been a calibre of player we would be in for

That’s what we want, a little bit of intrigue for the long summer nights!

“A left footed beauty”

I think we can all see where this season is going already tbh, we’re being told there’s only so long we can compete financially at this level and it’s being laid bare now.

Splaine being on the PFA list would suggest he isn’t coming back. All we’ve heard about Livingstone is the full time chat but I can’t check who would go for him and there’s not been a peep about Cuddihy.

I remember the halcyon days of Owen Andrew

Right player, wrong name. I’m claiming this one.

Parkinson confirmed as replacement now.

Parkinson time?

Don’t know if this has been shared elsewhere but we’ll have a new commentator on the games with the move from Sky: https://twitter.com/IanCrocker1/status/1532293523818651657?s=20&t=sANKpXDQvdWMm4_o3THv2A

Was there a rule where they banned wet races, did I miss a meeting?

To come back on that, to go away on the stag do is bad enough IMO, but to put up pics from it and plaster them all over socials on the eve of the game is just unforgivable. Ultimately, they obviously didn’t care about progression that much - evident in the revisionism now taking place on it all being about the league - which makes the chairman’s comments about the LL even more odd.

I presumed that was someone on the wind up when I first read that, can’t actually believe that. They obviously couldn’t give a shit about going into the LL. All that money to win the WoS

In a stunning turn of events, it appears Callum Gallagher will, in fact, not be joining us next season.

Just saw somebody on the Airdrie thread say we’ve enquired about Gallagher from them. That sort of wild speculation is what we’re looking for at this time of year! In other news, Big Rob Jones has joined Splaine as the second member of last season’s squad on the hallowed PFA list.

I’m not so sure about that. I’d agree that that EC and Peterhead will be the obvious targets to finish above to try and stay up but Peterhead have always had the wool over us in the key games and I think EC will be well backed and are in a good geographic area for players.

There’s Pignatiello off to Morton. Exit trials game taking place this week so no doubt we’ll be involved in that for players

Conor Scullion - another legend of the Glasgow Cup campaign - also has two games for Fauldhouse so given our recent transfer record, it’ll be him. Assuming no news is bad news on the likes of Cuddihy and Livingstone so we’ve got a lot of work to do when DL gets back from his soirée in Benidorm.

A predictably boring squad, was always gonna go this way with McCullum still in the IPL. Crawley is going to get a billion chances before being dropped since Key is so close to him through their Kent ties. Pope is the English selectors Rubik’s cube - a very healthy CC average suggesting he’s too good for that level but poor at Test level, don’t think batting him out of position at 3 (compared to just keeping Root there) is a good plan. Even the bowling is boring, the big two will come in as always but then you’re down to an untested county seamer and Craig Overton. Seen suggestions that Parkinson isn’t viewed as consistent enough and not a good enough batter/fielder for them, but Leach just isn’t up to Test level. If you need any evidence of that, ask David Warner and Travis Head what they think of him.

I’m not that bothered about the whole traditionalism thing, just curious

On that note, are we keeping the same home kit for next season? I remember some comments about us returning to the black shorts, red socks, but don’t know if that’s just with the current shirt?

We need a new mole, has anyone attended to Steven Thicot’s driveway recently?

I’ll bet QoS, couldn’t really see it being Falkirk or Dunfermline and there’s no one else

See you next season Dylan

Max Currie, get it right up him
