    Marginal gains might be the difference between 12th and 10th? :saddam

    Fair point, I’d just rather something less marginal than Foster. I’m curious if the club knew VdW had plans to leave again prior to it being announced, perhaps we could’ve found an alternative. Can’t imagine Foster is at the low end of the wage scale, too.

  2. Jesus wept, that was painful! And I think it’s pretty clear that anyone who thought Ricky F**king Foster is the answer to our abysmal depth at full back, was very very wrong. Looked off the pace, hopefully just needs some time to get used to the team etc. Grivosti the best of a bad bunch again, looks like he could develop into a quality centre half. 10 goals in 3 games, WTF?!

  3. One of the most inept defensive performances I’ve ever seen, how can you have so many players in the box and still leave the opposition unmarked? An absolute shambles from start to finish, Ross Stewart the only one that gets close to pass marks from me. Vigurs at his petulant worst in the middle, no graft, no guile.

    Had to be an ex-County player (though he didn't play much) to score the winner against us.

    Was fairly likely, since they had 4 ex-County players playing yesterday, was bound to be one of them!

    Well, bar Fox, obvs

    Defiant officially closing down. A shame, they’ve put out some really decent stuff over the past few years.

    Sad news, they put over a lot of independent guys and girls who had maybe been overlooked by more casual fans. Also managed to get some proper names in at times, like Cody or Rey. One of my favourite storylines in all wrestling was the Conners/Hendry one from the early days of WCPW, a proper slow burning heel turn followed by absolute mayhem when he turned. Outstanding.

  6. As a Flyers fan, I have some concerns about them repeating the mistakes of last year! Their business hasn’t been particularly impressive over the summer. They were linked with a couple of high-profile players, but none of it turned out to be true.

    so, our biggest bit of business is giving a SEVEN YEAR contract to a second line centre, when I thought Nolan Patrick was really growing into that role. Although if he’s on the third line, at least he can link up with the sublime Lindblom. We’ve picked up a pair of 32-year-old D-men, Niskanen is pretty good and I think would link up well with Provarov, Braun im a bit ‘meh’ about. He’s obviously an upgrade over the departed Macdonald or the god-awful Hagg, but I’ll be extremely disappointed if his signing stunts the emergence of either Morin or Phil Meyers *swoon*. Also, we’ve re-signed Brian Elliot, who will hopefully be mostly mentoring Carter Hart and playing in double headers etc. And that’s pretty much it. Kinda disappointed to see Gudas traded, thought he got a lot of undeserved criticism.

    I wouldn’t mind seeing Grivosti tried out in the Draper role if they aren’t going to replace anyone.

    Well they tried him at RB for seemingly no reason, so might as well give it a go! 

    Ive been quite impressed with what I’ve seen of Spittal, considering the tutting and sucking of teeth going on from the Partick fans when we signed him. We seem to have a fair pile of forwards at the moment, though. Was surprised to see another come in, especially since he’s not a huge departure from what we have already! Interesting to see if anyone else leaves, even on loan?
