  1. I was really unsure of Hammell getting it full time but after reading what he's got to say and watching him in the videos the club have put out I'm all aboard the Steven Hammell train.

    I'm hoping the we're well on the way to having a couple of players signed and ready to go for next weeks game. Especially a LB given the news of Caroll looking like he'll be out for the rest of the season and whatever is going on with McGinley.

     

    Also, congratulations @dezz on getting married.

     

  2. Dreading this game. I watched Aberdeens game against Raith Rovers in the league cup and have saw highlights of their league games and they look good. I've been impressed by their number 9 (can't remember his name). He'll run whoever we go with in defence ragged the whole game. The score will be whatever Aberdeen want it to be. 3-0 with Kelly keeping it from being anymore embarrassing.

  3. Duncan Ferguson and Kevin Thomson are the 2 names mentioned previously that stand out for me. Other than them I really struggle to think who it could be.

    We couldn't afford his wages but Tony Mowbray was a name I thought of and he is currently out of a job after leaving Blackburn. Everyone knows about his disastrous time at Celtic but his Hibs team were good and I wondered if he'd fancy another crack at Scottish football but as I said it's highly unlikely we'd be able to offer him anything close to what he'd want and I doubt he'll be short of offers from the English lower leagues in the coming months.

    It all feels like disharmony abounds in our enlarged dressing room.

    As far as I'm concerned we've stood still as a club despite our mini windfall. Not discernible improvement in quality, more a stagnation. Problem areas not addressed, ego based fallouts continue and general malaise, apathy and fan engagement as low as I can remember.

    If McMahon hasn't spoken to Flao in private to identify potential successors in a break glass incase of emergency sort of situation then I'd be very surprised.

    I agree with this. I can't remember ever feeling so apathetic and having such low confidence prior to a season even starting. I hope I'm wrong and we go on to have a good season but I just can't shake the feeling of impending doom when it comes to the league.

    We've stood by while the likes of Aberdeen and Hibs who were equally as shite last season have thrown money around to fix their problems. I know we're not going to do that. Plus Alexander says he wants a more streamlined squad meaning we're likely to only add 3-4 new players but it doesn't feel like we've addressed the problems that really do need fixing: IMO a new LB, CB and a no.9 as back up to KVV while trying to get rid of the likes of Ojala. As regards to the goalie Aston Oxborough we're seemingly on the brink of signing I didn't think it was a position that needed sorting but if we're sending Connelly out on loan and Fox is injured then fair enough. I also like the idea of having a cup goalie and I reckon Oxborough could fill that role well without being a drop off the cliff in terms of quality. It also means that when Kelly does go (whenever that may be) we've got someone who is relatively match fit and ready to go.
