mealsonwheels Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 He's 19 from what I can gather. He's got a decent goalscoring record, but if I'm reading it correctly, it was in the Swiss fifth tier. Sorry mate that was meant to be 19????, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raithie Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 As soon as we brought back the blue home strip, we probably needed a lighter away top, as the alternative was two dark ones, which presumably would have led to a clash against Falkirk this weekend. Clubs generally get abuse for third strips, as they're normally just a ruse to make money, but this one actually serves a purpose. Plus, although they won't be on general sale, you can still have one made to order if you contact the club. I suppose we could have just dispensed with the Remember jersey, but then you'd have folk moaning that we only had it for a single season. I noticed one of the first FB posts on it was something like, "I dont like this at all." Imagine a grown man thinking to himself, "I'm really going to sock it to them over this piece of fabric." Tube. Personally I'd have done away with the Remember top for this season. It serves no purpose this year in the context of why it was made however like others have mentioned it prevents supporters having to fork out for two tops in one season. Also what's the deal with clubs who's tops clash? My auld man is debating that it's the home team who have to ensure their own top doesn't clash with the opposition and if it does it would be them that should change. If that's the case we could of wore either of our current home or away tops if Falkirk agreed to wear their away top which I believe is white. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That might be an old rule, I think they still do it that way in Rugby - i.e. the home team wears it's second shirt if there's a clash. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine a grown man thinking to himself, "I'm really going to sock it to them over this piece of fabric." Tube. What is actually wrong with that? If he doesn't like it and comments, so what? It's really no different to someone saying they like it. I ordered the top yesterday. I think it's lovely. Imagine me, a grown man, liking a top so much that I've spent decent money to acquire it when really it's just a piece of fabric. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael W Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 I'm glad McKinnon reigned Toshney in. It's good to know he's keen to get out and play, but maybe a little too keen when he should be taking it easy. Some boy, but he'd better not injure his ankle again! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

renton Posted August 14, 2015 Share Posted August 14, 2015 Isn't it generally the away team hence the name away top? I'd assume it didn't start off as the 'away' top but simply as a second shirt and only became known as the 'away' top after it became the norm for the travelling team to wear a change shirt if there was clashing colours. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
