The Toun Clock Posted March 25 Share Posted March 25 34 minutes ago, par-adise said: POTY will be weird this season with so many in and out the team. But I can't see past the pair of them to be picking up most of the awards. I'm not 100% sure of the age limit for YPOTY but I'd imagine Otoo will take the main prize. However, I wouldn't be shocked to see Hammy land POTY and Otoo then taking the YPOTY because they've been the two most consistent players. The reason I mention the age limit is because I often forget how young Hammy is (still only 22) so I wondered if he would qualify. Looking at the squad list, the guys who've returned recently are having good impact but they've missed so much I think it would be unfair on Hammy and Otoo. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do I feel like I’d be betraying one of these guys however I vote? They’ve both been outstanding this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Don't really understand why you would have unused subs in the cup game like Allan and Chalmers playing 90 minutes whilst Rennie and Beagley warm the bench seems odd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heaton Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Giving the two first teamers as many minutes as possible since they aren't getting much first team action lately. They need to retain match fitness in case needed off the bench. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 The Hampden free kick has to be the favourite to win but I loved KRH’s. He’s so composed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 I went Hammy PotY Otoo YPotY Todd goal Vs Patrick the touch for me is just so so good. Also think he merits some recognition for his return to the team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 The Paul Allan conundrum continues. I think 6 months ago people would have shrugged at him leaving as a free agent in the summer but recently, especially the last 5 weeks or so, I think he has proved a valuable squad player. Obviously with him and another non-combative slow CM then you aren't going to do anything of note in this league but I feel he still has something to offer and at a wage that is presumably pretty affordable. His delivery has improved as has his grit, when Hammy was taken off against United he did a similar role really well, took his goal today well. For me he is now in the keep pile for next year. Is he in yours? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parsforlife Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 Given we are now most probably going to be a championship club next season my thoughts on the squad is, It’s generally ok, there’s nobody I particularly want to make sure we don’t have playing for us next season. But for a squad our size there’s too many guys who are ok for maybe 10-15 starts and the opposite as subs. We don’t have enough who have the quality that makes them certain starters for a club fighting for promotion. Therefore we are going to need to let a few guys go who haven’t done a huge amount wrong to allow us bring in proven quality, Allan may fall a victim of that more in relation to contract timing than anything else but I’ve got no problem with him being here longer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There too much baggage on 2 year deals. MOH, Chalmers, Breen, Wighton etc. Need to find a way of getting them off the wage bill. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MOH, Chalmers, Breen, Wighton etc. Need to find a way of getting them off the wage bill. Your not just going to get rid of these guys easily, they've taken the longer term deals for a reason. Probably part of the reason I don't think promotion next year is likely is that we can't turnover enough players, the very small chance of being promoted this year terrifies me as much as I'd be buzzing for it. In that unlikely event we'd need a dozen really strong premiership players coming in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted March 31 Share Posted March 31 A standard must be set. Said standard must align with the goals of the club. Presumably these goals will be to get promoted to the Premiership. In pursuit of these goals the club must be ruthless when it comes to players and especially younger players. Younger players shouldn't get extensions past a certain age just in case they'll be decent. For younger players, if you aren't showing enough by a younger age then sorry, please leave. You'll miss a couple of guys who make it but the majority of the ones you keep (after various criteria at various age limits). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
