  1. You are right. Other than the two first half, back to back, headers I cant remember him touching the ball again on Saturday. He tends to disappear in games, in saying that I think he will be our only player that hits double figures this season unless the board sanction a move back into the transfer market
  2. Exactly. Time for pussyfooting is now over and the clubs cant say they havent been warned. Time for the Scottish Government to move in and demand ground closures for culprits and point deductions. If the latter is brought in, I reckon the real fans will move in and police this themselves to get the problem solved when they see their club getting hammered
  3. Well I havent seen it anywhere officially but if a poster on WAT is to be believed, the agenda for the open day has been changed!! Looks like the board member has nothing to say or discuss!!! "15:00 – Meet the Manager in the Alan Rough Lounge for a question and answer session." ...and there's your last minute change of plan!
  4. With the sectarian songbook out early there are a lot of the travelling support going to be going for educational lessons on how to behave at a Sevco game as per their Everyone campaign....lol
  5. Might be difficult to ignore coming on the back of an almost certain defeat on Friday. Fans need to know if Caldwell is being denied further signings. Rumour mill was suggesting Hall and Rudden were being lined up and they are exactly what we need defensively and up front. If we have to run with the current squad, the minute the inevitable injuries and suspensions kick in we will be up shit creek!!
  6. Anyone wanting answers (hopefully) about just what exactly is going on at the club (buses, finances, no more players.....doubt they will be able to talk about the takeover) get up to Firhill next Saturday for the open day. I think the Q&A with Caldwell and a board member starts at 3.30pm. Its time the fans got some answers!!
  7. If the bus thing is right, the club must be in big trouble financially, which I find hard to believe. If we dont get more players in we wont be challenging for anything this season. If this is correct, the next meeting at Firhill shouldnt be with the manager it should be with Beattie and the board!
  8. Thats an astonishing price. I backed him on Sky bet earlier today at 6/1 for first goal and 11/4 anytime. Also backed TOW at 16/1 first and 11/2 anytime
  9. Third time lucky then PTA? I hope you are right. Hall sounds like exactly what we need!
  10. Championship betting (Skybet) Dundee Und 15/8 Dundee 10/3 Jags 5/1 ICT 8/1 Dunfermline 9/1 Ayr 10/1 Morton 14/1 QOTS 25/1 Arbroath 33/1 Alloa 40/1 We have been getting better with every game and Cardle, Austin (hopefully) Robson and Williamson will create plenty. Defence still needs working on and we still lack an out and out hit man but things are looking promising. Skybets top 4 are the teams I thought would fight it out this season. Dark horse for me would be Morton but only because Hopkin has a track record. Roll on Alloa on Saturday!!
  11. Just seen Robertson on Scotland Today saying the club are going to stamp down on sectarianism and will start confiscating season tickets for repeat offenders. Looks like the Sevs are going to be playing to an empty Ibrox when the “minority” of 45,000 have their books removed....lol
  12. Yip TL Mr Mansell wasnt the only hero yesterday, but he was the main one. As was said to me, a professional football match is probably one of the best places to have a heart attack if you have the misfortune to have one.
  13. Thanks Walter! I was actually thinking whether it was wise to restart the game after half time while this was still going on. If Thistle had scored just after the restart I just couldnt have celebrated. That was the longest half time I have ever endured. Its fantastic that he appears to have pulled through. When he is fit it would be a nice touch if the club maybe offered Mr Mansell and himself a day in hospitality!
  14. Dont be so fucking stupid. Read my post directly above. He has saved a guys life ya nugget! I was about 10 yards away from it and the guy worked like a trojan to save the fella’s life. Was not a pleasant experience to witness.
  15. Horrible to witness as well. A few people around the fella were in tears. The guy that administered CPR deserves a medal. His quick thinking has probablly saved the fella’s life
  16. Oh well yet another routine victory for SDI https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.thescottishsun.co.uk/news/4505301/rangers-sports-direct-mike-ashley-court/amp
  17. Totally agree Vinny. I have been impressed at both events. He gives the impression he doesnt suffer fools gladly and that can only be a good thing but he has a sense of humour as well. I have been underwhelmed by the signings and the game I have seen this season but left there tonight thinking he is well up for the challenge!!
  18. I think one midfielder and three forwards will complete the squad. He was talking Cammy Palmer up big time tonight. If Palmer is the success they expect him to be, the club will go back to Sevco and negotiate an extension till the end of the season.
  19. He is pretty happy with the defence. Penrice and Williamson can, in emergencies, cover the three main central defenders and Saunders can cover at right back with Penrice and Robson duelling for left back. He admitted we were short of attacking options and pace. I think it will be Austin (if it is him) plus 3. Gerry also stated that he will get a reasonable chunk of Fitzy’s transfer fee if he requires it now or in January. No matter what anyone thinks of Caldwell, I have been at these two meetings and he comes across really well and gives the impression that he is fully committed to getting us challenging this season
  20. I asked Caldwell tonight if any pace being injected into the team and how many further players we can expect. He stated he wants 4 more with a “speedster” flying in within the next 5 hours hopefully to sign. Rumoured on twitter to be this guy https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitch_Austin
  21. Have to agree unless something dramatic happens in the market. The team lacks pace and an out and out striker (havent seen Jones yet) and the defence looked ropey on Saturday. Yes its early days so hoping GC can give me some encouragement this evening!!
