donny86 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Connolly has been offered a contract. That he has not signed it would suggest he has, or is waiting for, other offers. Rory McKeown likewise. So will be also be due money for Connolly if we offer him a contract and he goes elsewhere? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 With your knowledge on players/tactics/ formations you should have thrown your CV into the mix for the managers jobRumour is he tried, but was turned down on the basis of Ren and Stimpy gifs being involved.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye the Gnu Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 I posted this on our page as I cant believe Locke has signed Johnston. This from the very same manager who hadn't a clue where'how to play him at Killie, and his first signing....Jeezuz. Absolutely no disrespect to Raith but I truly hope the wee man hasn't made a huge mistake. I hope I'm wrong because if he keeps injury free and is managed properly he could be a great signing for you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MC_Lachlan Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Is he right or left sided? Can safely assume that Grantie is definitely off to pastures new. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawkeye the Gnu Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Your new manager will probably play him at centre half! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumswall Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 We have 2 wingers signed so why does that mean Anderson is off? I know we signed a manager who hasn't performed well in the past but if we have any aspiration of reaching the top league Anderson should be a backup player. As much as I love the guy and am grateful for his service. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rovers1992/1993 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Heard last night that we were in talks with John Sutton. Also that Airdrie were interested in him as well though. Can't see Sutton dropping to league 1 though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Growl3th Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 But that's not all he did, is my point. A manager surely has to be able to look beyond his direct experience of players when building a squad, so that he can pick guys who will suit the situation rather than just guys he happens to know. That way you avoid stagnation as the same group of travelling failures get older. McKinnon may have had guys he knew and wanted, he also signed from fairly left field: Craigen and Longridge, for example. But that's not all he did, is my point.

renton Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 (edited) And this might not be all ​Gary Locke does. Give him a chance FFS. Yeah, and Johnston looks like he has the potential to be a good signing. If he and Vaughan have shaken off their injuries we could have a fairly skillful forward line. In spite of my moaning, I am willing to give him a chance, and I've previously written that I get the board's rationale for bringing him in. I still have fairly big doubts, and I am giving voice to those - maybe too much. Edited June 7, 2016 by renton 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
