Guest Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 (edited) As an aside, I loved the blooper on the Ladies Day promotion for the 9th of March. One of the highlights it lists is “ A car park for no trouble-free parking”. Edited January 11, 2019 by Duncan Freemason 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Petra is back, though not available for Saturday. Bit of a relief tbh some of the language Ray used when talking about him was a bit grim. Was starting to fear for the laddie. Glad to see him back and hopefully fit soon. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be a blow not to have him for tomorrow and starting with O'Hara or an untried Lavery. Lavery should be good enough at this level. N IRELAND and Everton both rate him.Hopefully his hold up play will add a new dimension as at least we now have others who can play off a striker and add a goal l threat themselves. Expect the unexpected Ohara to come on and score the winner! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His last good season was with O'Donnell, it was like a tag team with them also I think Cregg's head went a bit when stories about Celtic being interested, same situation as Collin Samuel but Man Utd, Everton etc 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On paper that sounds great, we really don't know what we will get with Lavery and as much as I don't mind O'Hara, I am a bit deflated we are going into Saturday with those as our only options 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairney The Dinosaur Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 It’s up to 95% of the ‘supporter’ funds pledged now. Sounds like it’s been a bit of a struggle to get Patrons signed up though. If anyone would like to send me £10k that I’ll pay back without interest then please do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Jenkins Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 I have a good feeling about the Thistle game tomorrow I see us winning 3 1 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Thistle have a few new signings too, so there’s going to be a helluva lot of name checking going with both sets of supporters. A win would be fantastic of course. Sadly (and it’s a short term thing) I would want Morton to get something from the Alloa game. McKinnon had our “old” defence drilled into something passable until the return of Muirhead, then it all went to shit again. Hopefully this new defence can offer the midfield a bit more service, and they in turn can set the new youngsters up front on their way. If (when) we score tomorrow, fair chance of it being a debut goal for someone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's on the wind down now, but he played over 100 games in the SPL after he left us for Hibs, St Mirren and St Johnstone, before a couple of full seasons at Shamrock Rovers. Hardly as though he disappeared overnight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Bit of a stretch maybe, but does anything Rudden did at Rangers count towards him having played for Rangers this season. I know he turned out in the diddy cup and friendlies. Could we be his only option? -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrDust Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 2 minutes ago, HopeStreetPieStall said: If he's played an SFA sanctioned fixture, he should be on two clubs and unable to sign for a third. What diddy cup do you mean? If it's the challenge cup, I'm not sure how that would work, are the still considered "colt" teams or under 21s?

He was a regular performer in the SPL for 4 years after he left us! Between leaving us in summer 09 and summer 14 when he left St Johnstone, he played 81 times in the SPL, plus 1 for Morton and 7 for Bury. He then played 2 1/2 years in the Irish top flight, playing 65 more league games. So that's 150 or so (league games only) between then and winter 2016. He's hardly been a stellar performer, but he's plodded along in a solid manner. *I freely concede my stats are wiki'd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
