    The home top that hasn't officially been launched? The one we don't have a firm date for? The one we haven't seen?

    Cmon Kenny that's tinpot in the extremes from the club and you know it. If they're selling it at the end of this week why does it take a Twitter response to someone to find that out. That's awful.

    They’re probably planning on the kit launch on Friday anyways. They usually do a teaser the night before, so I’d imagine we’ll see something on Thursday night.

    When do we start worrying about the squad? Can’t help but feel the momentum of last year dwindling before we even get started. 
     

    I think it’s great that we’ve kept most of the squad from last year but this was a squad that just about scraped past Hamilton who were absolutely honking in the championship. 
     

    I’m looking for another CB, LB, and two CM’s at least and possibly a RW before I even think about the emotion of optimism 

    I would say we can start worrying if we don’t have anyone in by the Dundee game. But as I’ve said before, McCabe and the board aren’t daft. They’ve worked this hard to get us here, and they’ll be working just as hard to keep us here! So I’m sure plenty of negotiations will be going on behind the scenes.

    I seem to remember the Airdrie announcer playing Gay Bar by the electric six while Thistle were warming up in that kit. Or did I dream that? 🤔 

    I’m not sure tbh! I don’t think you ever wore that against us as it would’ve clashed with our white. But I can remember Thistle wore the pink camouflage one against us one game at Airdrie!

    Yup, I think it was Puma. Around 2010/11?

    Yes that’s the one! I remember a Partick Thislte fan in my year wore it to PE one day. It naturally  went down like a lead balloon in Airdrie Academy! 😂 I do like both variations of the strip though!

    Read from the interview that the team are away to Coleraine tomorrow for pre season training.

    @Mr November mentioned that Brighton have a Northern Irish striker Ben Wilson who's out of contract just now.

    On the Brighton website it actually says that he was signed from Coleraine so if we're playing 'Consilium Bingo' then I'm taking him on my card.Screenshot_20230701_213934_Chrome.thumb.jpg.64ec47989a494f039d735784665f6495.jpg

    So will that most likely mean there’s no pen this week if the team are away to Coleraine? 😞

    All very quiet on the signings front with not even any rumours flying around.

    Anyway, we seem to currently have senior squad of 20 players and we're definitely better placed than previous seasons but in reality it's probably only 16 as it includes Hutton, Dunlop, Kavanagh & Prince who look very unlikely to play much, if at all.

    As has been mentioned in other forums, the loan market, especially when it involves players from Scottish premiership clubs is fraught with danger given that they don't seem to want to release experienced players until very late in the window when they've filled their own squads.

    Perhaps we'll see a trialist or 4 this weekend.

    Players from England’s contracts don’t expire until the 30th of June also. If we’re going down the route if signing players from The National League, which is quite a popular option in the Championship these days. 

  7. Please stop worrying troops, the signing of Dunlop will most likely be for the reserves. McCabe and the board aren’t stupid, they will know exactly what is required in bid to stay in this league. I highly doubt the board would have worked this hard for the last 5 years for promotion, only to throw the towel in and only sign young boys now that we’re finally here. Trust the process, the “quality” signings will come ♦️
