  1. Down to 5th on GD after 14 games.

    Edinburgh City are starting to be my bogey team, just cannot beat them.

    Gethins and Connelly both injured and out for 2 months so dived into the transfer market and signed free agent Ross Caldwell. Scored on his debut against Turriff Utd in the Scottish Cup and looks a good addition.

    One positive note is that Riordan has found his shooting boots. 3 goals in 4 games (2 of which were traditional Deek style finishes) and showing my decision to sign him was a good one!

    Next up is Stirling Albion away....

    The attendance will be less than last year. The card is possibly better but they've had a dreadful last 18 months or so.

    I appreciate they want to give everyone their day under the lights but these shows always have too many multi-men matches on them.  

    I considered going but a combo of having meetings on the Monday and finding death matches to be frankly disturbing made it an easy choice in the end. They need to abandon the ridiculous torture fests with Whiplash. No one cares about ECW or that nonsense any more, it was 20 years ago. I can see something ridiculous like someone getting stabbed in that match. People want a mixture of comedy, fun entrances and high spots.

    Huh? the hardcore matches are still very popular.

    I was at Potterrow the other week and having the match break into the crowd and right at my feet was class.

    They certainly beat just a standard 1v1 in ring match up!

     

  3. I started a save with Cowdenbeath (I know I know)

    Lost 3 out of 4 league cup matches against Livi, Falkirk, Montrose and Ross County but I'm tbh I'm not overly fussed as I used them to try out tactics etc...

    Lost 1-0 to Partick U20's in the Irn Bru cup but again, not fussed.

    Onto the league, I am currently sitting 3rd after 11 games. 4 wins, 4 draws and 3 defeats and currently 9pts above the relegation zone (where I was predicted to finish!)

    Signings

    Derek Riordan - Free agent, a complete waste of a jersey (gutted)! Has contributed nothing and currently sits with an average rating of 5.9

    Mark Stowe  - on loan from Falkirk, a good winger who has chipped in with the odd goal and has a handful of assists

    Lewis Clark - Free agent, had a bad injury during pre season but is now the permanent RB at the club (much to Fraser Mullen's annoyance)

    Dominic McMeekin - on loan from Dundee Utd, not managed to break into first team squad and will probably be sent back to Tannadice.

    Jordon Armstrong - on loan from Motherwell, he's sharing the left side of midfield role with Stowe and has fitted in well.

    Connor Gethins - A free from Formantine, a revelation! Brought in following the Riordan saga, Connor has been fantastic. Scored 5 goals in first 7 games and more importantly has been handing goals on a plate to Ryan Connelly.

    The club is debt ridden and I fully expect the board to start selling my star players against my wishes. Have tied down Connelly, McGovern and Rumsby on longer deals so should at least get some money.

    'Mon the Blue Brazil!

  4. It's more disrespectful than anything. Making ill informed comments about his fellow pros who he will face again at least twice this season. 

    For me, the Holland match is a chance for new players to shine. A chance to try out formations and build towards a successful qualifying campaign.

    I sincerely hope Boyd's made to eat his world good and proper like.

     

  5. Have to admit I'm very impressed with what Lennon has done with your team. Hasn't overly changed the squad but seems to get the best out of his players. A lot of good young Scottish players.. Every time I've seen Martin Boyle I've been impressed, Good enough for a call up ? 


    Nah, he's not. He's the most improved player at the club by a mile but he's not international level.
