  1. No doubt about it. But, is he the best team player? Jim Weir doesn't think so!
  2. Heard from a reliable source that Kennedy is nowhere near ready for 90 minutes. The plan was once Forfar were 3 or 4 goals up against the Colts he would come on for a 10 minute run out. Mr. Easton saw to it that neither happened. Malone or Kelly can slot in at left back. For all Easton fans out there you might be crying into your beer by the 31st.
  3. Yes. Travis got a sore one early in the first half. Looked like his ankle or instep. Tried to run it off but couldn't. He was replaced by Whyte. Easton got a sore one. Kicked out at the guy, got a red card and the DEATH STARE from JW when he walked off apparently uninjured leaving his teammates to battle on for 65 minutes .
  4. Livingston Colts v Forfar Athletic. 21:08:18 An overseas trip to Sligo awaits the winners. Could be a long night if both teams decide to chuck it.
  5. This. Plus a share of the pool of 2nd round games, plus a chance for the Irish to experience Loons on Tour.
  6. Irn Bru Cup. Don't know why there is such negativity about this competition. The longer we can stay in the more money the Club gets. IF, and it's a big IF, we can get past Livi under 21's , what an experience lies ahead for the players and fans. The Club gets 5k for travel expenses and a chance to enjoy the Irish hospitality. Let's put out our strongest team on Tuesday and create a bit of history.
  7. Played off the park by Livi under 21's. We got away with one tonight.
  8. Good chance for the fringe players to stake a claim for a first team spot tonight in the Tony Macaroni Stadium. The Manager and Treasurer will be demanding no slip ups. Let's get the job done.
  9. Just had a chance to see post match Jim Weir interview. Very strong vote of confidence for Andy Munro and also Whyte. With Fraser still to come in who will be dropped once injuries and suspensions are clear? Looking again at the 3 goals we lost. 1st. Vitoria beats Meechan? far too easily and scuffs a shot towards McCallum who inexplicably fails to gather and Conroy knocks it in. 2nd. A hopeful upfield punt towards McIntosh with our GK and back 4 in position. McIntosh scores. 3rd. Shot from inside the box beats McCallum at his near post. Playing nice football is O.K. if there is an end result but we were done with 3 punts up the park which we couldn't deal with.
  10. Lewis Moore. 3 goals. 32 apps. Cowdenbeath. Matt Aitken. 7 goals. 29 apps. Forfar . Just saying.
  11. Well,that's Paddy CREGG sorted. Signing on fee, contract. One more year for the pension. He will probably play a few games before going into hibernation mode. Will be interested to see how SCOTT McBRIDE gets on at East Fife. Will he come back to haunt us ? Fife fans seem a bit underwhelmed at his signing. Time will tell.
  12. For the benefit of SlipperyP do we have any spies heading to St Andrews to count if we have enough players for a 7 aside? Any info would be good.
  13. You might be reading too much into the squad list. It's not like the site to be that up to date. Of the 18 players listed , 2 are untried ex development squad, 2 are long term injured and 1 is officially retired leaving only 13 fit and experienced players. No real surprise that the 4 listed are to be released?? Mark Millar is obviously waiting to see if a better offer comes along. Hands off D.C.! He would be a major loss if he goes. Looks like J.W. will have a bit of wheeling and dealing to do in the weeks ahead.
  14. Just noticed that two members are browsing this site. Myself and Dogs_Bollox! He has risen.
  15. The point I was going to make before being attacked by a flock of angry birds is, Mark McCallum. If St. Johnstone do come calling , cheque book in hand, what would be an acceptable transfer fee? How does a ball park figure of £60k sound?
  16. Not sure you are getting my point, or do you find the constant switching to some advertising site acceptable?
  17. Good night so far. Just won £100 Visa card on this site. Seriously if this consumer site keeps popping up every time you scroll down I'M OUT. GET IT SORTED P&B.
  18. This appeared in ,"The Last Post" section of the Sunday Post on 15:04:18. LOAN MOVES SET FOR SHAKE UP. The scrapping of the SPFL DEVELOPMENT LEAGUE at the end of the season is set to have a major impact on the loan market. The SPFL are bringing back reserve -team football with an open-age group , and Development Loans between Clubs will no longer be an option,with other temporary moves set to go. Emergency Loans (28 days) and Standard Loans (93 days) are also to be done away with. Does this mean that the COLTS IN LEAGUE 2 saga is finally kicked into the long grass? Does it mean no loans full stop. Does it mean loans are only permitted during a transfer window and must be season long or for half a season. I cannot find any details on the SPFL site but the POST must have got the story from somewhere.
  19. ⚽⚽NEW SIGNING ⚽⚽
    The club are delighted to announce the signing of Ian Black. Ian is a local lad who has played at the highest level
    He will go straight into the squad for our first game of 2018 at Home to Dunbar 1.45 Kickoff on Saturday.

    The above post from Tranent Juniors. 

    Still we have so many quality mid fielders that we can pass them on to Montrose and we have rock steady Eddie plodding about mid field.

  20. Thought you guys might have made more of the page number!
  21. Don't want to rain on your parade but Ross County are in the Premier League on merit. Could be another doing for you. I agree that if you are under the cosh you should not be losing a goal from your own kick off in under two minutes. Escort the ball back to the keeper,let him collapse on it, lie on the ground for at least 30 seconds, stand up and hold onto it for the regulation six seconds?? Roll it out, punt it out of play as far up the pitch as possible, squeeze up and cut off the throw back to their keeper,fight to win back possession and kick it out near corner flag. Repeat until Ref loses the will to live and blows for full time. (Dick Campbell coaching manual )
  22. Now that Billy Bigtime has signed for you, (thanks for the most generous fee by the way) and has no doubt negotiated an even more generous signing on fee, I trust he now has his normal terms and conditions in place. 1) I must be on the highest wages in the club.(Because I'm worth it) 2) I must start every game no matter how poor my form is .( Because I might just do something special) 3) I will make my own way to away games thus avoiding having to mix with my team mates until I absolutely have to.
