Black and White Tragic Posted July 15, 2018 Share Posted July 15, 2018 Letter in the Press this week coming from Halbeath claiming credit for signings after slating the board previously and spurring them into action. Doesn’t sign off with “sack the board” this time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some right w*nkers in our support who do not understand the fundemental basics of supporting the club.

I genuinely think we have a pretty well balanced squad with cover for pretty much every position. Maybe the only position we're light in is at fullback? Martin can cover both sides but if we had two out we could struggle, but then I wouldn't want to waste any budget on it... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Pretty decent looking team but it’s such a competitive looking league. Ashcroft-Beadling-Faissal is an exceptional spine to the team with lots of options in the positions around them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All-Star-Par Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 f**k our squad looks decent on paper. Queue 8th place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallumPar Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 I agree that our squad looks decent on paper. However, I’m not sure it looks stronger than United, Ross County, Partick or Inverness. Falkirk, I have no idea, they’ve signed a lot of unknown quantities, so could be strong, could be poor. No idea. Morton and Queens are no pushovers and Ayr’s squad isn’t looking terrible.There will be a lot of tough games and no easy ones. That’s why I’m glad that we’ve improved our strength in depth. It’s important to make sure that, unlike last season, we are able to make changes without weakening the team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Potted hOuGh Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Again, I also think the squad does look good on paper. I also agree that this league is a competetive league and one therefore I think we could potentially struggle if we don't hit the ground running. AJ has met his objectives set by the club and I was one of the doubters around Christmas last season where we were looking like a mid-table team at best. However he is back in charge for the next 2 seasons so I'm behind him. I'm hoping we're able to sign players in January (if required), and hopefully it's additions to strenghten a squad competing at the top of the league and not because we're out of the race. Still think another (out and out) striker can be brought in to give us just that bit more depth up front 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smpar Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Not to be a negative Nelly, but I’m not expecting much of a title challenge from us. I think AJ has done well assembling a decent squad at first glance but I have a feeling we’ll miss players like Aird, Morris, Clark and McManus at several stages of the season. 6-8 teams out of ten will be hoping to occupy the top 4 places this season, and a playoff place would still be a good achievement for us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poet of the Macabre Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Much like our two previous seasons, I think our squad is good enough that relegation won't be a concern but not good enough to see us challenge for the title. 4th again would have to be seen as improvement, when you consider how competitive the division is likely to be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring in any more players and AJ would be struggling to give players a game. Quite happy, there was never any panic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D.A.F.C Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 Goalkeeper is one position that if Robinson got injured we could get an emergency loan perhaps? I’m hoping Murdoch gets back ok. Gill had a great game against Arbroath, would like to see him play in the pointless Irn Bru cup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevo84 Posted July 16, 2018 Share Posted July 16, 2018 (edited) Don't see any reason why can't compete for the title.put together a good squad with lots of competition for places and more options formation wise than before.we are improving year on year. Think County are favourites and us, Partick and united will be the main competitors. And can see united being a bit of a mess.
