  1. He had mentioned in an interview recently that he hasn't had any offers yet. That did look like any reasonable move in Scotland was off the table, due to the development fee. I'm glad for the boy, that appears to have been dropped by hearts. I would have thought clubs higher up the pecking order would have gone for him if this wasn't an issue earlier. But it's worked out well for queen's, and I think he'll be a very decent signing for you guys.
  2. Not too bad if he can repeat that rate, a league up. Could be more successful in front of goal than Storey or Keatings. Another loan though doesn't look good for our longer term team building. Maybe we're holding off till the winter, for players from Ireland?
  3. Nothing. He's not going to play in Scotland this season.
  4. 1. Kilmarnock Unspectacular, but solid across the park. And will probably have a better depth of squad. 2. ICT Similar to Kilmarnock, with fewer weaknesses than the rest. But not the overall depth. 3. Dunfermline Best attack in the league. Not strong enough at the back. 4. Raith rovers Will be in the middle pack, going for the last playoff spot. Not as strong as last season, but a stronger overall squad, than the rest. 5. Patrick thistle Good looking at attack. Further back not ready to be near the top. But see them getting there, over the next couple of transfer windows. 6. Hamilton Probably shite 7. Queen of the south Similar to last season. Relegation battlers. But with some good spells 8. Arbroath I think they're running out of steam at championship level, and beginning to decline. 9. Greenock Morton Just as pish as last season. So no change. 10. Ayr United Slowly falling apart since McCall left. Hard to see any quality left in the side. Sad to see this slow car crash. But hopefully change is coming sooner rather than later, for the Ayr lads.
  5. This would be the ideal scenario. But smaller regions in the first place would have made things easier at the bottom. More teams participating, means more players playing, you'd think that would be the focus of the SFA, over the wants of larger clubs.
  6. Possibly a good thing having experienced players that Dodds has worked with before. Decent short term signings, while he finds his feet in charge.
  7. It's always funny seeing players who thought they were much better than they are slowly descending downwards.
  8. Interesting we go for another centre mid. Probably where we're strongest at the moment already. Can't see anymore midfielders coming in now. Not too enthused by gardyne. But he'll have strong competition for a place in the squad anyway. A younger striker might be nice too. Getting a much older lot of attacking players so far. But yeah, squad coming together now. And mainly looking for defenders now.
  9. There are better advanced player than McGinn, including Armstrong. He was fairly anonymous yesterday. And Mctominay slowed us down too much.
  10. Agree that it didn't work. Seemed unbalanced and awkward line up. Except that mctominay and McGinn we're the weak links in there yesterday.
  11. Gordon Forrest-Hanley-cooper-Tierney Fraser-Gilmour-Armstrong Christie-Adams-Robertson
  12. Dykes should be finished after that. Adams as first choice all day, followed by Nisbit. A front 3 of Robertson Adams and Christie would have been too much for the Czechs. But we played defensively, when we don't have the players to do it that way.
  13. Did not know that. Only seen the article recently that he was moving into coaching at county, now he's done as a player.
  14. Hope not. He has no coaching experience to speak of. What could he possibly have said in the interview to come out on top of all other candidates?
  15. Would they really? Considering the highest value of imported goods is from Norway. China and USA, being 2nd and 3rd. Would we really be in any different a position to the rUK?
  16. Stugeon's doing it on purpose! Deliberately keeping the currency weak to gain an unfair trading advantage. But one question I have if we had a weaker currency, why would that mean higher prices? It even says in the article Doesn't this point contradict that?
  17. Good listen on the podcast guys. Just got through it. Thought I'd way in on what we need for next season. Firstly on defense. There's a good young core already there. But an experienced leader coming in might get the best of them. Logan or Ambrose would be great. What about Alan Lithgow as well. Released by livi, and experience in a promotion winning side. I liked the look of Leon McCann at Airdrie too. Could eventually replace Harper when bigger clubs come looking. And could also get some game time, if we pushed Harper up at times. Midfield is pretty solid already. I'd argue we already have 2 decent number 10s in MacGregor and Doran. I'd be happy enough, with the young lad. (Hyde I think) stepping up to Vincent's spot. Attacking is where we need to improve the most. Would be great to keep Todorov. Storey isn't going to be a double figures scorer. And would only be insurance if who we bring in doesn't work out anyway. Connor shields would be my top target there. Hester could maybe make the step up. I'd take Simon Murray too, if he wanted to return to full time football. Wingers should also be a priority. I'd like 2 coming in. Scott Tiffoney, and Daniel Armstrong, would be great if we could get them.
  18. Ok Hamas may be Islamic fundamentalists, but what else is going to work? other than what they're doing. Palestinians have been demonised to a majority of voters in Israel. So Israeli government's don't look likely to stop persueing a policy of near extermination any time soon. The only thing that will end this is international intervention. And continued violence is the only thing I see as possible to keep the attention for that to happen.
  19. Got a lot of joy. When there was good crosses coming in. But ineffective when that was coming from Storey or Sutherland, who were never going to provide the service he needs.
  20. I thought seedorf was alright. And would probably have done better for us at right back this season. He just seamed to have a dip in confidence, and would have been all right with a wee break. The other Seedorf, I can see getting released by Motherwell. The sort of player we'd be looking at, and we need a replacement for Dan Mackay.
  21. Interesting you should mention that. As I had watched a few documentaries a while back, about Jews remaining in North African countries. They were claiming the exodus to Israel was caused by a campaign of fear propoganda, through things like leaflet drops. And not hostility from Arabs in their homelands.
  22. Is it Scot Gardiner making decisions on contracts right now. Haven't heard if robbo is returning anytime soon. Our attack just wasn't good enough this season. So re-signing Shane doesn't seem like a good move. To be competitive at the top, we need to be looking at new players now, or we'll be left behind.
  23. We can also record who you vote for on these cards. And make it available for anyone to see. A more transparent election.
