    I really hope that we are able to go through the entire league campaign undefeated. We could come up with our own version of this:

    Airdrie was an absolute, unmitigated disaster. So was the cup semi, but there was a really dodgy decision that contributed to that particular result.

    We’ve had heartbreaking times, three SC cup finals that still to this day for me didn't deserve to lose, but that’s football. 
    Airdrie was as difficult I’ve known, an absolutely abhorrent/capitulation display from players wearing the NB. Manager that watched and never changed the format when it was evident after the second goal we needed to change. 
    Called for his head at the time.

    Cant say anything apart from well done to assembling the best equipped squad we’ve had in six or so years.

  3. Great time to get the remaining home games sold out. The commercial team by all accounts bursting all revenues, let’s get a huge push on all socials, and get friends and family members down to the TFS. Lots of stats being thrown about today, never thought we’d equal/beat JJ & BB record, which was one of the best ever season’s being a supporter. Clydebank, if I remember with 7K fans ( thought there was more) was simply brilliant. Many fans no doubt to young to remember, enjoy the run in guys, these times don't come  along too often. 

  4. McGlynn will be a very happy manager with the spine of squad now signed up. The aforementioned players will have a real chance to get new deals, but undoubtedly the manager will already be talking to possible new players. Can’t remember  any close season with as many players signed. Be good to know if Miller Lang & Spencer could get extensions to 2026.

  5. If there’s a time for any fans who have drifted/stopped attending over the past few years, there’s no time like the present to bury the bad, and get yourselves back. We’ve got half a dozen home games that we need to have the stadium bouncing. An extra couple of thousand fans helps get deals like today over the line.

  6. Slightly off subject, but an interesting read about Motherwells situation and the obvious need for new investment. 71% fan owned, finished seventh in the SPL last season, but made a 1.6M loss. Reported that there potentially two interested parties and some mention of the shares being changed. As it’s early days interesting to see how this develops. 

  7. Probably the easiest game we’ve had against Montrose since we’ve been down here, the replacements In the starting line up did little wrong and great to see guys like Mackie getting game time. Olivers goal was a peach and roll on Saturday. Another 4K+ for a Tuesday game, great effort by all.

  8. Arfield would be a very expensive player, and would probably require financing outwith the normal wage structure. Wouldn’t expect he’s got the box/box same engine and my concern, would be similar to McGinn, who tbh looked done before injury’s finished him off. We’ve tried the DOF / new young/coach/manager lark, and it’s cost us an extended stay down here, so no thank you to any DOF/upcoming newbie.
    McGlynn with Smith have been outstanding with player recruitment (with the odd bump) 

    Said it a few times - get Miller signed for another three years. A footballer that plays with his head and feet. Not many players with this level of skill at this level.

    (in my view, we will need better quality in a number of positions to challenge at the top end as John has stated).

    Unquestionably. However hoping that the spine of the team (GK -exception) are still in place, as I’ve not seen any better in the current championship, of course should we go up..

  10. Fantastic show/game/result and for thirty five minutes we were untouchable. Power pace commitment that simply blew Hamilton away. Sat nearly in line with the call for offside, thought their player was just on. Hamilton had a bit more resilience about them second period and gave them a weak second goal that gave them some hope, but didn’t at any stage think we’d lose the game. Some quite embarrassing officiating and some brutal challenges that were straight reds little alone yellows. Thought we were fantastic and thoroughly deserved the three points. (Slight negative - Hogarth needs to own the box more stands frozen far too often and needs to practice his out balls) Unbelievable chance to go 14 points clear which would put a hellava distance at the top. Brilliant atmosphere in town before and after and sure most of towns publicans will be waking up with smiles today.
