Silverton End Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 2 hours ago, Old Scrotum said: I am sorry that I don't get a daily update. The reason for the initial post was to let you know that Brabco appeared to be selling out sooner than later, something I thought that you may be interested in. Apparently not, so I'll say no more on the subject. Hold on a minute, wise guy. Don't think anyone's expecting daily updates, but when a poster comes on with important shit like potential new Club ownership, it's only natural folks are interested. Fwiw, the person I'd think would get involved with The Sons again might be Neil Rankine, he's always retained a fondness for DFC. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pleslie99 Posted March 22, 2019 Share Posted March 22, 2019 I don't understand the hostility towards old scrotum here. He gave us some information that he thought we would all be interested in. Now hes basically being told to shut up because he has no further updates. Think everyone needs to calm down 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think everyone needs to calm down Rumours are fun but unless there's a significant amount of truth in them then all they really do is provide a mild diversion for a while. We can all speculate. Some of that speculation may have some basis. Most usually doesnt. Fans are great at filling the gaps in information and then believing the bits they've added. I'd urge caution before we're all convinced that we've got a white knight ready to ride to the rescue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In normal times mild diversions are fine but right now we have an embattled Board of Directors trying to deal with an 'interesting' major shareholder and they can do without kites flying about the place. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockMusic Posted March 23, 2019 Share Posted March 23, 2019 Good bloody god gentlemen, after a performance like that there's nothing for it but a combination of the Brian Jonestown Massacre and a number of fine malt whiskies. Anyone else like to take a dip into such waters??! -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FifeSons Posted March 24, 2019 Share Posted March 24, 2019 (edited) While yesterday was poor, I still think we’ll be fine. 5 out of our last 7 at home gives us a great chance. I always had the Raith game down as a defeat, so I don’t think it’s too big a deal. The more concerning thing was other results going against us. Hard to say how many points we’ll need to stay up just now. I’d suggest if we beat Stenhousemuir we’ll be clear of 10th, but it could need another 2/3 wins on top of that, given the rate Stranraer and Brechin are picking up points.

FifeSons Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 The Montrose thread seem to think Ballantyne has signed a pre-contract with them. I'd be very surprised if that's true. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

microdave Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Decent wee video from Ladbrokes that includes a cameo from oor microdave... They edited out the bit where I said that Henk Van Schaik was a better man than Cruyff for having the good sense to actually sign for us. And thankfully my reaction when asked about the current squad was also dropped! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockMusic Posted March 31, 2019 Share Posted March 31, 2019 Good god gentlemen, when you observe the utter pish of our defence today there is only one thing for it and that is the psychedelic genius of The Brian Jonestown Massacre.

The Moonster Posted April 2, 2019 Share Posted April 2, 2019 (edited) Just sitting here torturing myself over this season, it really is a clusterfuck of injuries we've had. Grant Adam - Fucked his back, missed large chunk of the season, could potentially be done at any point Connor Brennan - No injury Cammy Ballantyne - No injury Craig Barr - Usual 4 month injury Willie Dyer - Missing for near 4 months now Ross Perry - Been injured most of the season David Ferguson - Played every game since he arrived Henk van Shaik - Played for 3 weeks, been injured ever since Brian McLean - Played 1 match, injured/unavailable since Ross Forbes - Was injured for about a month Stuart Carswell - Fleeting injuries throughout the season Kyle Hutton - Apparently been playing with a f**k off cyst on his hip for the entire season Bobby Barr - No injury Ryan Thomson - Seemed to spend about 2 months injured out of the squad completely Michael Paton - Hasn't ever been fit, spent 2 months out injured Calum Gallagher - Spent a few weeks injured across the season Rory Loy - Permacrocked Iain Russell - Clearly finished, spent 2 months injured Ben Armour - Not been injured Boris Melingui - Not been injured Dom Thomas - Not been injured 14 of the squad have spent longer than 3 weeks out injured at any given point. Of the 7 who haven't been injured, 4 of them arrived in January and have very little game time split between them. Have we ever had a worse year of injuries? I'm convinced that c**t Les Hope put something in the water before he left. Edited April 2, 2019 by The Moonster 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
