The guy has been brilliant but he’s worked his socks off and looks like a complete team player
Tait & Miller have been nothing short of sensational. Getting Tait signed would be brilliant. Can anyone confirm Millers contract situation?

Confident about the two games. Agree that Annan may prove more difficult as still need points. But to do they will need to play more open football which will suit us, Alloa will get a free hit and expect a few fringe players in against us.

Kinda agree with the earlier posts about non Bairns attending games. I’ve a few friends that are die hard supporters of the club that travel from predominantly around the Aberdeen area who have settled after working most of their days offshore, and families/second generations that are dandie fans. However very proud to bring there siblings along to games where possible, although they obviously support the bairns when the leave the granite city.
I think it’s been covered but if it’s the arse cheeks that have decided to attend, we can only hope that their respective kids get the bug, the Ultras will play a big part, and what a difference with the young team at the games this season. The marketing team and admin have been outstanding, can I suggest two or three stalls with all/any merchandising outside the stadium, don’t miss a trick.5 -

56 tickets now left for sale in the NS
Great turnout, hope that a good lot of these fans that maybe have lapsed or gave up continue to attend next season.

Thought for a minute this was for the final game….

I don't think any of us are taking anything for granted. For me on Saturday I was the most nervous I can remember being at a game for many, many years.
Absolutely bang on. Theres no one taking anything for granted, and if truth be told, apart from the pissed in the hospitality, 4500 odd fans were waiting nervously on that final whistle.
Annan have been on a great run and we won’t get it easy next week. We will need to work hard and keep our shape. Happy to take a point tbh.

Wee sneaky chance of the playoffs still....last couple of games could be fun!
Play like Saturday and wouldn’t bet against you making the play offs. On a side note your player manager keeps you too static. In the second 45 if you’d played more direct you might have stolen the three points.

Two games to go, interesting to see who clinches the play offs at both ends.

Fucking hope Tom Lang is OK for next season. Its testament to this team that you have to remind yourself how important he was in this thing. Feels like ages since he was taking bodies in the NB
This. Although Hendo & Mackie done well yesterday, can’t wait till Lang is back. His presence with Bruce Lee gives us a much needed “don’t fck with us”

How anyone can say that’s a harsh sending off is absolutely mental.
Brutal challenge.
I’ve watched it a few times, gets worse . As said ref got this bang on, unfortunately the rest 90 was as poor as I’ve seen, especially considering this was from the top drawer brigade

This season has been one of the best and up there with JJ / IM teams, I had the pleasure watching. Met a few players at a well known supporters bar last night, and the guys couldn’t have been nicer. The guys were on form and it’s easy to see they get on brilliantly. Like many it would be brilliant to see the season out unbeaten, for me I don’t want it to end.
(Defo need a CB signed for new season)

I'm usually one to defend refs but yesterday's ref is a Premiership ref and with no Premiership games on yesterday I thought he looked very arrogant as if he thought refereeing League 1 football was beneath him. He also didn't look the most mobile!
Think you’ve nailed it, heard one or two saying the same, cocky little shite I’m sure I heard more than once.

That’s probably the best any opposition have played at the TFS this season albeit made easier with the red. Ref got this spot on but delivered an astonishing bias for the ninety odd minutes, with nearly every decision going to KH. Nisbett once again with a mind blowing display of running, tackling, passing and shutting down opponents. When you’re down to ten it’s a difficult gig, and although lucky with the one that came off bar, thought we coped well. Every player has played their part, so I’m laying off McCann who just looked disjointed for some reason. Two games till season end and no doubt will be as difficult as yesterday.

Might vote Maciver for POTY now because of that, would round off the season nicely
Might put a few faces out, but after the League 1 was announced, what a gesture to the big guy if the fans rallied round.

I'd expect his agent is trying to see what's out there as they are always looking to make a few bob. We need to have offered him the same deal at least to that he was on but I would presume with us moving up and he having signed basically what would have been a pretty low value contract initially that the latest offer would be a step up in wages. If he'd been a free then I'd expect lots of interest from teams seeing him as worth a punt but obviously there would be a fee involved which will put suitors off even if it isn't anything major.
Agree. Difficult time for many players throughout football, many coming to the end of contract, many on deciding to extend, many looking for a new club, many looking at the dressing room and see most signed up etc. Haven’t a scubie about Yeats and like the weegie papers, the FH will spin on a coin be doubled headed. Hope we aren’t to far away from an extended deal, but the guy will know he’s had a brilliant season and he’s got interest from others, his agent will be key to what the next move is, let’s hope it’s another two years at the TFS.

Feel for the big guy. Has been immense and can’t believe he didn’t get the slot. Many arguments for him missing out, just the kick for him to finish the season off with a couple of hat tricks…..
There will never be another season where ten players from one club takes the stage. Well done to everyone, as you’ve been bloody outstanding.

I don't understand anyone who isn't voting for Morrison v Montrose!
A goal like that, to win the game, is amazing enough. But for me, that goal was the moment I believed this season might actually turn out to be quite good.
Nailed it

Great result although soft spot for Montrose. Thought you played really well against us, and very few teams have came to the stadium and had a go. If you keep the nucleus of team you’ll be back up next season. Best of luck!!

Ok maybe wrong use of guaranteed, but with Hamilton likely to beat Montrose they will almost be certain of a play off spot if they win or draw at Cove. Thanks for the correction.,,

On a slightly different topic, Montrose result tonight gives outside chance to Kelty/Cove for last play off spot, tall order but doable, with Alloa guaranteed play off spot.

But Tait would be on loan, surely Hibs pay his salary and we contribute a percentage? Also not sure who is going to offer Ross any more than us, considering he’s obviously not wanted by Raith and he’s been used mostly as a squad player for us this season. Have you heard a club higher up the food chain as being quoted with an interest? I’d a have thought we would have a decent chance at getting both if we wanted them.
Sincerely hope we can sign them, gut feeling is that wages may be an issue. Hope I’m wrong

How do you know they will be out of reach?
Competition that can offer more lucrative salaries.

It’s a pity that both Ross and Tait will probably be out of reach, as these guys are class. With Miller Morrison ripping the outsides, and the thought of Alfie and Ross coming on, we’ve got real pace and skill upfront.
Ross will want a starting slot, and with Miller bringing real class, it’s difficult to see if Ross would be happy as a squad player. Tait with Spencer and Nesbitt bring a formidable centre three and allows width either short or long. Let’s see what McGlynn can magic…1 -

I've missed that. When did he say that and was there any indication of possible names?
A few weeks back, sure it was as mentioned, think also interview with FH (STBC)

Cant make the shop and best bet is to go on line for me. Guess these will be sold before the “public sale” just hope there’s a second batch.
Feel that the “invincible tag” is starting to take focus away from where we’ve come from, and the brilliant promotion as Champions.
Two year ago we were at deaths door. We’ve managed to get ourselves promoted through so many supporting channels M&S - players who love the club - FSS - Patrons - BOD - Brilliant Marketing/Sales - Those who don’t take a penny and work endlessly - hospitality - STs - PATG and all supporters of the club.
I,ll leave the Ultras to last as they deserve their own rights. They’ve simply been magical/magnificent. Kelty was a game where the Ultras never stopped the singing, had many of the sweetie wrappers/prawn brigade singing and clapping, and they pulled us through the ninety odd minutes. No coincidence that we’ve most weeks at the TFS we’ve now got the main stand singing.
We are the deserved CHAMPIONS and if we can go unbeaten so be it. Thanks to all - Ultras take a bow.
