  1. Not surprised at seeing those 3 asked to leave. Jephcott looked overweight when he joined and clearly wasn’t interested getting into shape. Compare him to Sven who was also out of contract and joined on a free but immediately fitted into the team. 
     

    Ballantyne looked like he’d break into the team but faded away. 
     

    Brown, I’ve never seen a player regress so bad. 
     

    Crawford however is a coward. And I’d say the fanbases reaction at the time we signed him says it all.

    Reliable poster in WAP given an update of sorts.

    - James Brown is free to leave

    - Jephcott and May have interested clubs and are likely away this month in some form

    - Turner-Cooke will return to Newcastle this month

    - Crawford wont leave his contract so is likely to stay

    All seems likely. The Crawford one I’ve heard from multiple sources. Will probably end up at Hamilton doing f**k all claiming the saints fans seen him as a scapegoat.

    The tweet was clearly a joke, but at the same time its not as if hes a kid. Hes a grown man, who must know the reputation of Airdrie fans, who pointed out exactly where Saints fans were and also gave a half believable excuse for some form of bother.

    f**k around and find out, i guess, and even if he thinks hes done nothing wrong he needs to bollock up and apologise to those who were hurt.

    f**k around and find out indeed. Not putting the post up here as I don’t know if it’s definitely the ned, but appears the bottle thrower may have been identified. 
     

    I would suggest the tweeter thinks about the consequences of his tweet. Some fellow supporters may not be too happy at seeing him around Mcdiarmid for some time if he can’t offer up a proper apology. 

  4. Aye I’m getting a bit fearful we just had a new manager bounce now. 
     

    The squad is full of players with little to no confidence in their ability also. Gallagher is half thd player he was before the leg break, Considine is on fumes and up top….well it’s been an embarrassment for a long time. 
     

    as if stands I don’t see Livingston coming off 12th, but we’re totally reliant on Motherwell and County being worse than us.

    It's been 8 months but it still sits badly with me the whole Wotherspoon thing. Both the manner of it and the fact he's a (much) better player than most of the dross we have assembled.

    Impressive the way Steve Brown managed to get everything entirely wrong from May 2021 onwards. MacLean as manager was just the pièce de résistance.

    I remember Maclean talking and justifying the Wotherspoon situation at the last fan forum, and with hindsight I don’t think he expected the backlash from the fans at it. 
     

    Made even worse by presuming Dara Fucking Costelloe was a suitable replacement.

    Best case scenario for me is Robinson at LCB and Montgomery at LWB.

    Unlikely to happen, but it would be good.

    Are Wigan in more financial trouble?

    I thought that had all finished when their new, billionaire local guy had taken over.

    I know they had a points deduction and restrictions on buying players, but doesn't that all finish after this season?

    Yeah, yeah, I know. Wigan chat for this pish.

    The new owner also owns the Rugby league side and seems more focused on letting them spend cash and forcing Wigan into living in their financial means.

    Callum Booth saying he picked up another knock in pre-season and started to consider going part time and more local to his house.

    Says Spartans ticked both boxes which is why he ended up there.

    Sounds like hes already decided he wouldn't renew his contract with us even if offered.

    Shame it’s ended up like this for him. I did question why we were so keen to offer an extension at the time and the decision looks even dafter now. 

  8. Callum proved himself a very capable coach. As random says he took a very good squad assembled by Tommy Wright to the history books. I don’t think Tommy would’ve done the same. 
     

    For me, Callum’s issues began when he needed to assemble a side of his own, he left it too late for July 21 to do something worthwhile, leading to a panic of a window in January 22. 
     

    Yes he kept us up but we absolutely should not have been fighting the drop. 
     

    The following season Callum went for experience and threw in a few random young players. Football wasn’t pretty but at the break we were sitting closer to Europe than the drop. 
     

    Then it all went to shit. Callum came back with comments instantly stating we had to stay up, that’s all that mattered. It continued. Even when a change to a back 4 showed promise frustrated us when he immediately returned to his old ways, justifying it with a win against Motherwell. We wouldn’t win again for about 2 months. Those who still held out hope dwindled, until what seems like one lone voice (HiYa Steve Bright Hiya pal) continued to back him. Even his most ardent fans who pinned most of the blame on other people admitted the dressing room was gone, and it was best for all if we went out separate ways. 
     

    If he’s learnt his lessons, and he’s willing to compromise I think Queens Park have done well, if not, well Maccas kicking about somewhere.
