Drooper

Worth mentioning that Strain received an appreciative round of applause from the home support in the first half for how he brought the ball down and under control on the touch line. Outstanding skills.

Aye, that's very true.

Impressed with the young lad. He wasn't shy and looked for the ball the entire game. Happy to take players on, and had a few very good touches. Very promising.

He looked raging

Neil Lennon sitting in the home end/side. Fair play, he is humouring the weans wanting selfies.

Ryan Strain running things here.

Going along to the game in Dumbarton tonight. 10 minutes along the road and my mate is a Sons ST holder. Tenner a skull, though?! Thieving ratbags

Gary Mason. I always rated him. Solid and reliable for the most part. ETA: sounds as though I'm describing healthy bowel movements there, so no offence to Gary.

It has been slow this time round. A lot of eggs seem to have been placed in a McMenamin shaped basket, but we need to hope there are plenty more irons in the fire (using mixed metaphors at this time in the morning is a despicable trait, so my apologies for that).

Assuming he doesn't have suitors with deeper pockets from elsewhere.

Aye, every possibility.

As disappointing as it is, Glentoran are entitled to hold out and ultimately decline what we are offering. Fair play to them, and most of us would probably expect our club to do the same in similar circumstances. Perhaps they don't do gentlemens agreements over there....

Seems a bit odd to have 2 games in as many days? Even considering they are pre-season kick-abouts.

Looks a player!

£5000.00 has 6 figures.... (arguably)

I approve of the approach whereby we won't be held over a barrel when it comes to signing players. What we've never had we won't miss. If the deal falls through we move on.

Very unsure about the merit of bringing Fletcher in. He must be just about done, no?

All the way to Dingwall!

Titanic, etc.... Too soon?

What about Sounds Good in Renfrew! Bought my first LP there (Zenyata Mondata by the Police).

Of course it was! My sister used to work in there. I used to visit Stereo One, so should have known that (seems I was the uber-cool type).

Was that on Bath St?

Cheap and Nasty!

Young Josh Jack who used to be on our books has a dad (Alan) who played for us briefly - or was certainly on our books. By all accounts, most notably Alan's, Josh was a better player.
