ANEWHOPE Posted June 5, 2018 Share Posted June 5, 2018 Finally got round to changing club calendar today and was greeted with a picture of Sibbald. One of many to have left the club that feature. The ray of sunshine is the person that is Mr July, so fingers crossed the trend continues. If this forum is anything to go by then a Hartley solo calendar would fly off the shelves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good piece of business getting him in and releasing Gasparotto as he was brutal. Its a complete miracle that he passed a medical. His knees are totally gone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newbornbairn Posted June 6, 2018 Share Posted June 6, 2018 59 days until the start of the new season. Millennials (those aged 16-30) will spend 59 days a year looking at their phones. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To get foreign players to stay there you've got to be offering them a fair whack as there's feck all to do. David N'Gog and Chris Eagles apparently earned close to £100k, each, from their few month long deals at the end of last season.. Expect huge whataboutery from County fans on the subject though, especially in January when they're struggling and they go out and sign ten top flight players. Apparently its completely sustainable and McGregor has it all figured out. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You would think fans and chairmen alike would learn from the mistakes of Motherwell and Gretna, Livi twice and Dundee however many times they have done it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get the impression, from his previous actions, he only puts in (and then rights off) what he can afford. I’m not asking our guys to put the club in danger but if they are serious about trying to get us out this league, then like previous years we have went up, we need to put a chunk onto the budget to help that. Sorry but at least 2 of our board can afford to put into our club and not demand it back at the 1st opportunity. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Overspending is no barrier to success. Remind me what league Livi and Dundee are playing in now? Splash the cash, get some good players in, entertain the fans, win promotion and give us all a reason to get excited again on a Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where did Rangers end up when they couldn't pay what they owed? I'm all for putting a competitive team on the park, but it can't be done at the expense of the clubs future. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McKinnon is a week into the job, we really need a few signings this week! We've got 14 (I think) players I'd consider as first team but 3 of those I think we'd all want rid of (Loy, Shepherd and Harris) and 1 is a young keeper who should probably be loaned out. Assuming they all leave we're likely looking at bringing in up to 10 players for the first team squad supported by the (remaining) youth players. So there's a lot of work to be done, I think we're all reasonably confident that Hartley and co know what they're doing but I'll admit i'm fairly nervous about the season ahead purely because of all the unknowns. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
