    oh same here, just i know how the reactions will probably go if we do re-sigh him

    Musonda has done ok, actually looked good at left back in recent weeks but I wouldn’t want to play him there every week. 
    We need a right back, a left back and a centre half. If that centre half is going to be sanders and we keep Musonda, then I’m not sure any of our defensive problems are solved at all.

    Although arithmetically Ayr could be involved it would take a really strange run of results for Ayr to be in the relegation play-off.

    The worst results today, an Ayr loss along with Inverness beating Dunfermline and Queens Park beating Arbroath would mean we would end today 

    Dunfermline 43
    Ayr 42
    Inverness 41
    Queens Park 40

    So it wouldn't be that strange, on the last day, we play Dunfermline at Somerset, Inverness would be home to Morton, who in that scenario would already be confirmed as fifth. Queens Park would be playing Airdrie who would already be confirmed as fourth. 

     

  3. If the SNP get through the two votes with no casualties, all they have to do is propose a couple of credible, popular policies that have to go to a vote in the chamber. 
    If they get through, it sends a signal that they are still a capable government. 
    What is more likely, Sarwar will be so thick, he’ll block it, making him look like he’s siding with Conservatives. The Conservatives will block it because they have no credibility and nothing to lose anyway. 
    Surviving with no casualties and coming up with sensible policies may be the biggest challenge to that plan. Ross being a dick and Sarwar being dense as f**k are a given.

    Some quotes from Lorna Slater on Good Morning Scotland

    and on working with the Scottish Government again

     

    Obviously reviewing the feedback from folk they thought would back them just laughing at how seething Patrick Harvey was, they are trying to save a bit of face.

    Sure the press conference the other week was a minute and a half of Clarke talking about his time at Ayr.  Is it Mathie who generally sorts these things out?  Probably busy doing his tick box exercises with the youth WOSFL as I reckon he's trying for a job with the SFA.

    They have to fill the press conference with something. You are not going to hear anything about the squad or contract renewals or anything interesting. 
    How has training been? Good
    How is the mood in the camp? Good
    You must be pleased/disappointed with the last result? Yes

    So random player, do you enjoy where you are playing and is the club/group of boys wonderful? Yes

    They need to pad that out to over 5 minutes.

    I think they're shitting it atm. Hopefully when we're safe, we'll see an effort made!? If the simple things like club-fan communication, highlights/interviews/streams/social media/website etc.... etc aren't addressed this summer, the we need to be asking these various back room managers, very blunty (none of this ass suckin happy clapper nonsense) what the actual f**k they're getting paid, by us paying fans, to do! I've mentioned a few times, but the buzz Smith generated around the town and with dormant/aufc small team fans was huge.... The horrific football and then L.B. and more horrific football absolutely destroyed that buzz so they best be putting together some rather special, not just here's a new shiny stand, as minted as it is.... 

    I think they just don’t bother. I’m sure if they were to ask for some volunteers to do it, they’d get at least half a dozen folk that would be interested. Or at least someone who can give ideas and guidance to someone at the club and they can film it. 
    There is no enthusiasm or excitement generated. There wasn’t a press conference last week. So far there has been nothing this week from the club that would make someone in two minds think, f**k it, I’ll go up to Firhill. 
     

    Next week, they could have an event after the final whistle. Meet the players on the park for half an hour after the game, for kids to get shirts signed and pictures taken. Have signed shirts at a discounted price on sale in the club shop to clear out the dead stock come 21:30 (hopefully) next Friday night. 
    Have folk looking forward to next season rather than ending this one thinking the whole season was a non-event. No cup run, no play-offs(hopefully) and no real excitement. The only exciting thing is a new stand and the possibility of not getting shat on by a seagull on the north terrace.

    The warcry social media content this week about getting as many supporters as possible up to firhill to help us get over the line for our biggest game of the season has been unbelievable, oh wait...

    You actually wonder if behind closed they're that rose tinted about being safe considering Brown was asked after Dundee United game about challenging for top 4 next season to which he rightly replied "we need to guarantee survival first". 

    Or if just because of the very limited communication with supporters it's just made to look out like this. 

     

    It took a dive when Smith took over, McCall knew the importance of it and Kerr just wasn’t very good at it but tried. 
    Mathie has been on the edges of football his entire life, so never as a paying fan. I don’t think they fully understand the need. 
    Either that or they are thinking, they are getting a new stand and that’s the most important thing, a bit like the hub when that was built. 
    Even studios releasing dogshit films try and hype them up.

    Should’ve happened years ago. 

    Its a bit like taking over the chart show on Radio 1 after they took streams in to account. 

    They will host a half hour interview that will give absolutely no insight in to the team but offer a few sound bites and a lot of expressing belief and hard work.

    I'm a rural dweller, living in a village 7 miles from a small shop and 15 miles from a supermarket of note.

    Things like the DRS:

    Does it effect me  - yes

    Does it inconvenience me - yes

    Does my tolerance for that inconvenience outweigh my perception of what is the greater good - no

    I was already quite good at recycling, it was just going to become a pain in the arse having to store plastic bottles in a small house for the weekly trip to the big shop.

    The Scottish Greens have been buggers for policies that might work in inner city suburbia, but maybe don't translate so well to rural Ayrshire.

    One of my issues with the greens was the baws-oot, go big or go home policies they were forcing on people without trying to win the electorate over with or trying to implement gradually. The SNP have stopped trying to win votes now and just seem to be stuck in a tailspin. There is absolutely no one credible to take over from them and yet they are still shedding votes.

    For the SNP maybe, certainly not for the likes of DRoss and Jabba Baillie.

    Aye, The conservatives wont get in. I remember the shambles of McConnell & McLeish the last time labour got in and the massive unpicking of things the SNP had to do once in power, that and the fact Sarwar is as bright as a blackout. Labour would be a nightmare as well. 

    Having a political party that is a branch office of an English party means that if both are in power, the policy will be mirrored. So we would likely have tuition fees, paid prescriptions, water meters, bedroom tax etc. 

    Our only real hope of developing as a country just now is a sensible SNP government and we are miles away from that just now. 

  11. It should be a dream scenario, having a left leaning government, backed up by a green coalition and a partisan media keeping the whole thing in line. 

    The greens have just been fucking daft and the SNP have done nothing but been on the back foot since Sturgeon resigned. With any luck this will shake things up a bit and we can get back to grown up politics again. 

    Harvey said he'd resign if the party voted against the BHA. So he obviously didn't want to lose his ministerial allowance and was trying to sway his party. he was dumped and now just looks bitter and angry. 

  12. I don’t imagine there would be a massive uptake in a 5 year season ticket. Unless they offered a pay-up option over a longer period. The amount of folk that could drop over a grand on one would be pretty small . 
     

    They might get an increase on season ticket sales if they put next years up on an advanced sale around Christmas time with a pay-up option.
