Springfield Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 3 hours ago, FFC 1876 said: Was disappointed there weren't any trialists in the squad last night especially considering we've not signed a right back this summer. Tumilty was rumoured, Hamilton announced him as leaving and have now announced him signing a new two year deal which is a bit strange. Very early days and we can only speculate on x y & z. First season I can remember that we’ve not had one or two trialists for the first two or three games. Guessing it could be that McGlynn is happy with what’s in place and maybe one or two players/signings in place ready to be announced. On the flip side has he identified players who have received better offers and turned us down ? If you look at last nights squad numbers it more than likely that maybe at least two still here will need to move on to allow for new signings ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Braes_Bairn Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 (edited) Time for my annual club website moan. Went on to check when the home league cup games are and they are no where to be seen. No news article with the fixtures, and the fixtures and results page hasn’t been updated since the 18th April. When we employ to media officers why can’t we get the basics right?

Harry Kinnear Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 I don’t know why but I’ve a feeling we might get a yellow away top based roughly on the 1994 matchwinner kit and the 3rd limited edition kit could be like the chessboard one. That’s just a guess and it might be nothing like them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t think anyone is saying that but equally the idea that you will play poorly all pre season and magically turn up all firing on the first day of the season is delusional. Some positives to take from yesterday (particularly the young guys) but equally we had the same issues from the same players who let us down last season. With word coming out of the club that there are no current plans to recruit a rb as the budget has gone, we will need to see an improvement from the current squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are being factual and not just speculating would you care to share where you’ve seen this as it contradicts what we were told regarding squad size, the last communication the club gave regarding this season was a squad of 22 senior players supplemented by 6 apprentices with the overall playing budget expected to be broadly similar to that of last season give or take a bit pending season ticket sales and FSS membership.

We also seem to be disregarding the loan market, and forgetting that might have a big part to play which, whether we like it or not, is where we have the potential to get our best players from. Plenty of time for that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The figure given was actually 20-22 and we’re currently at 19 so not far off what was budgeted, particularly if some if some of the new signings were given improved offers than originally envisaged. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who from the club has confirmed we aren’t signing a right back ? I’ve totally missed that tbh. Fullback is a specialist and key position in modern football and I would be absolutely stunned if we haven’t signed a right back in time for the first league game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You said we weren’t signing a right back as the “budget was gone” If this is the case i’ve missed that communication from the club so where did you see it? Or are you in fact as I suspect just speculating/shit stirring? As you’ve just pointed out the senior squad was to be 20-22 players so at a squad of 19 we’d expect a minimum of at least one more incoming player and that’s presuming there are zero outgoing players, taking all that into account I’d be happy to wager we will indeed see at least one more player brought in, actually I’d even suggest it’s more likely we’ll see 2 or maybe even 3 incoming before the window closes, there will also probably be at least one leaving us.

JulioBairn Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Pedro can you please confirm where you got the info that we have no plans to sign a RB? I suspect this is absolute pish and would be willing to place money that we will indeed sign a RB. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebobsboy Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Squad is nowhere near good enough as it stands. We need more than a right back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
