They don't stop being our jobber cast-offs after one season and your new goalkeeper went from punted at Cappielow, to free agent, to getting the call from Duffy halfway through last season.
The only difference is the speed of putting a squad together. If Duffy had stayed in charge then he'd have been targeting the exact same players (and indeed already brought one of them to the club), so it's hardly the revolutionary new approach that some are claiming then.
So any player we sign that has ever played for the mighty Greenock Morton is a “jobber cast off”? Got it.
It’s a completely different approach from last season and god forbid we enjoy a bit of positivity around the club.
I’d be more focussed on your own team if I were you. Or maybe that’s why you’re here - to take your mind off it.

You signed all our jobber cast-offs last season and you're doing it again now but okay.
Who have we signed apart from Orsi that played for Morton last season?

3 really positive signings today. This is wonderful stuff. We could be looking at not only a quality squad but one with some real depth compared to the last few seasons. As has been said it’s night and day compared to last seasons recruitment. We usually do good business in the loan market too so we hopefully have that to look forward to.

My main concern re: Paton was a central midfield of him and Carswell but depending how Faz sets us up it might be fine.
Happy to take on some young guys such as Lynch too cause it gives us more cover for some of the older guys.
Overall, a very solid day at the office and it’s refreshing to see us have a large amount of players sorted prior to preseason training.

Another one jeezo

That’s a miss for me. We’re in danger of going from having some good experienced heads to having a team full of pensioners. Could’ve done without that one after some good business earlier in the day.
Hope he proves me wrong

2 years! Lovely. The home top looks smart as well, perhaps the images we were voting on haven't done it justice.
I wasn’t a big fan of any of the vote designs either but the home top is looking pretty nice.
Media team are doing a great job with the teasing and announcement videos. Much more exciting than just the statement going up. Hope they keep the mental vids coming too.

Faz is certainly saying all the right things at the moment. Good to hear more are on the way and he isn’t resorting to signing players for the sake of it.

Not seen him play in quite a few years but at 34 I can imagine he’s still about 5x faster than Forbes. As has been said, his presence at the club and on the pitch will be invaluable. I love a comeback too so I’m on board.

We are hard as f**k.

I think we may have broken Stranraer. Chairman left now.

Happy enough with that appointment. Faz doesn’t seem the type to wait about so hoping we’ll see a decent amount of activity next week.
Looking forward to hearing about the decision and his aims for the club etc too

Two year deal oaft. I don’t think it’s the worst thing in the world having a few players signed up before getting the new manager in since a few clubs are moving fast but it certainly is a bit mad.
From what’s been said on here he had a few other options so it’s nice to see he’s chosen us - especially with Darvel probably throwing a wedge at him

Surely too early for manager news - maybe a player has decided to commit to us anyway?

Glad the board made the right decision. Fair play to Duffy for getting us through the play-offs as we know how perilous they can be. That being said, this season was not good enough.

I dunno if I'm at the bit you're on about but I'm in the benevito house right now, was thinking it was pretty calm, just a little bit creepy then i completed the first door puzzle, just encountered something that made me drop the controller turn off the telly and go outside to touch the grass. Fifa for the rest of the night for me!
It was indeed House Benevito

Surprised the bookies have Edinburgh at 3.80 to win tonight, considering Dumbarton could afford to lose by a goal and still stay up.
Stuck a few quid on it however my betting record has been horrendous recently so, congratulations to Dumbarton on their comfortable victory.
Mcbookie have Edinburgh City to win by 2 or more goals at 22/1 for any Sons fans that fancy an “insurance” bet.

I'm not that far yet, just killed the first one, I think. I honestly can't play it too long at once as I just turn into a bag of nerves.
Looking forward to seeing how you cope with a certain sequence…
Nightmare fuel.

Just finished my first run at roughly 13 hours and I skipped quite a few of the optional treasure spots and hidden areas.
There’s also a lot of unlockable content after completing the game so I’m definitely going to get my money’s worth.
If you’re not too keen on replaying the campaign and doing speed runs, knife-only runs etc, playing mercenaries and going for 100% maybe wait for a price drop but there’s a lot more content than 7 (excluding all the DLC which was excellent - a bit gutted they don’t seem to have any planned for Village).
There are some absolutely batshit crazy moments in this game and I loved every one of them.

Ramsbottom earned himself a new contract after his performances for us - FFS indeed can’t believe Duffy and Faz have the exact same signing policy. We may as well have kept Duffy on cause we’d have the exact same squad as we do now
