  1. As someone said elsewhere it depends on how you look at the army and what they do.

    For me they protect the country both at home and overseas and if they didn't sign up to do it then we would ALL have to take a turn. Now I don't know about anyone else but I quite like my safe job that pretty much ensures (accidents aside) that I'll be home to see my family each night.

    With that in mind, I think the country should help out the troops both serving and retired with benefits. If that includes watching the boys in blue then fair enough.

    Hope the initiative works well and is taken up most weeks.

  2. 25 tickets? That's it? We could give away 4000 for each home game and still have swathes of empty seats.

    As an aside, should we not be going round local schools and giving primary kids free tickets? They're free to get in anyway, but actually having a ticket is more of an incentive to go.

    Totally agree regarding the schools. May be something the new marketing guy will do once they start back after summer.

  3. Just been on park....different from Stennie... I like stennies one, time will tell I suppose. The surface seems more grass strands than Stennie, only concern is we are guinea pigs with the surface. In the kickabout the bounce and pace all seemed good, Saturday tho will be the proof

    I've spoken to a couple of pros and they hate Ochilview, say its one of the worst.

    Airdrie gets good feedback though.

    Your right in that we are guinea pigs in the UK but this pitch is being used successfully in a couple of the top Dutch stadiums so should be ok.

  4. I was fortunate to get a sneak preview of the pitch yesterday. It is totally different to any plastic pitch I have been on before. The club seem to have done a fantastic job with this project. Everyone who can should get down a week on Monday a see it for themselves.

    Totally agree, doesn't even look synthetic from close up.

    According to the FH they have recently installed the same pitch at the training grounds of Arsenal & Ajax and the Beckham Football Academy beside the O2 in London.

  5. I dont think so. Putting them both out on loan would be stupid. They're both marvellous players. Sibbs looks to have toughened up quite a bit already imo. Grants set piece delivery is better than anyone else in the squad and they both know how to beat people. I think sibbs is gonna be a top performer this season along with Alston and Kingsley. The squads tight enough without putting lads who should be fighting for a place in the first team out on loan.

    I do agree however we need a new centre back. Maybe 2 centre backs actually. And vaulks and olu as defensive mids

    Totally agree, no chance Sibbald or Grant will be away anywhere.

    More likely someone like Faulds or Biabi could go on loan.
