  1. Starting to get a bit annoyed at some of our fans always crying about the away supports at East End and calling them 'shit', 'pathetic' etc. What are they expecting? For the fanbase teams have, the supports I've seen at East End have been decent. In terms of percentage of their home crowds, the away supports I've seen at East End have been the same as our away support. Where do people think these magic extra fans will come from? Or do they somehow expect that teams will bring their entire home support?!

    I've not really seen much of it on here. It's mainly been on Facebook groups I've seen it.

    Also can we please stop with the 'this young team' stuff. It's actually pretty cringeworthy. You'd have thought that we were the first team to take the novel approach of playing younger players, or that we have the youngest team around, or that we don't have quite a few experienced players in our team.

    That is all.

    Been a while since one of your rants...

    On the away fans point, I agree to an extent, we can't really expect much more than the amount that have turned up so far. But it is frustrating when so few people are in the away end.

    On the young team point you are completely wrong. Experienced players? Geggan probably counts but that's it barring potter and dargo. Yes we aren't the first team to do so, and no they aren't the youngest side ever, but they are young, and they don't have the 2-3 older players to help them that the likes of Falkirk and Hamilton put out.

  2. Good old Steven Simmonds..

    I doubt if rovers fan has it but if the pic of him crying after being sent off in the derby can be posted that would be brilliant. It's one of my favourite football pics.

    On fife football friends territory surprised you guys have felt the need to bring in gk cover, laidlaw looked good enough to cover and I think it would be worth the risk chucking a youth goalie on the bench

  3. Yeah, they still have a fair group who aren't online as often as all us losers and won't have had the constant bombardment on the OS, Facebook and emails.

    Certainly,with no home game since the launch I think there will be a few that haven't heard about it, or at least not in detail, a couple of announcements tommorow could well aid it along next week.

    Also good luck to mercer, hopefully he gets good game time, playing 1st team football will be more beneficial to him than u20s games, it also allows someone younger to get the be pushed on by playing an age group up. Didn't realise he was 18 tho, thought he was older.

    Nice bit of PR from the club. Good to see this though, sounds like they made the wee boy's (and the Dad's!) day.

    It's important that little things such as this are done, fans are not easy to get but if you can have small victories it sure mounts up.

    No way did our massive jump in support in leishmans 1st time as manager occur through one big push for fans, it's all about getting one at a time.

  5. Fair enough for scheduling, but it seems the spfl are determined to f**k about with my Xmas football plans.

    We were going to have a guys day at the rangers match but that being shifted means we can no longer go to that, so we made the decision to pencil in going to arbroath but my dad won't be back from holiday for the game now. Better not move the stenny game now. My brother in law will have gone home by then anyway tho.

  6. Probably take him as long as we can easily sack him without paying any money out if he behaves too much like a fanny.

    Theres a very talented player in there somewhere but has hidden it very well over the past few years. We need to be careful not to get all the problems and none of the ability.

    ETA: I don't think he will play for nothing either.

  7. The Dunfermline Press is the source. No idea if they are experienced, it was a game between Dunfermline featuring trialists and the Nike Academy. I would prefer if we signed a steady and experienced centre half to compliment Morris as we badly need one to shore up the defence. However if we can't pick one up in January then a similar Morris gem would be ideal.

    Had a read of the article, it seems they are nike academy players. Fair enough if we get another whittle or morris but in our current position I would prefer if possible a typical journeyman if I'm being honest, I don't expect us to turn down a talented player just because he isn't experienced tho.
