Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 1 hour ago, O'Kelly Isley III said: OK, but that doesn't explain how a club called Irvine Meadow for most of their existence became Irvine Meadow XI. I'm sure there was some sort of parallel with Gretna/Gretna 2008. They were called Irvine Meadow XI from the start and that never changed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
O'Kelly Isley III Posted July 25, 2022 Share Posted July 25, 2022 https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-62256634 You may have seen this report on the BBC website today. Re this season's 150th Sons strips, apart from being a step up in quality from the previous supplier, one of the other attractions was that they are manufactured for Macron in Romania which apparently has less supply chain issues than China. So if your family/friends/colleagues/neighbours are struggling to get Man U/Man C/Chelsea/Barca, etc., shirts for the weans, direct them to the kit worn by a real football club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Particularly in the LB area in the lead up. Hope we settle down at the back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Judging by those Twitter clips lets hope Jack Jones never pulls on a Sons shirt again and that David Wilson is only relied upon in extreme emergencies. I’m actually quite shocked at just how bad Wilson has looked so far, I’ll be honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m actually quite shocked at just how bad Wilson has looked so far, I’ll be honest. I'm not that shocked to be honest. My initial reaction was that he wasn't going to be a player who will be a starter and who would contribute all that much, given we have McKee, McLean, Carswell and Wilson (albeit, the jury is out on him) all in the squad. Then when I read some other peoples input on here I decided I'll give him a chance and see how he does this time round. He has been playing at this level for a few years and was so young first time with us that he may have improved a lot. Evidently, he has a long way to go to convince me my initial thoughts were off the mark though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean I certainly wasn’t expecting him to be good or to be a regular starter but I thought he would be a decent enough squad option. I just didn’t really expect him to look as poor as he has! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just didn’t really expect him to look as poor as he has! Yeah, in theory he should be offering much more. He knows our level and you would expect the basics to be done better than they have been so far. Very much a "squad player" at best though.

O'Kelly Isley III Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 When you bring a player back at this level they are unlikely to be that much different from previously - that can be a good or a bad thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PWL Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Anyone collected their season ticket yet? Just curious to see what format they are now that we have retired the wee booklet of paper tickets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet Pete Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Season tickets are a wee cardboard business card as a "temporary measure until the new online digital database can be set up". You also get a free pen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BallochSonsFan Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 (edited) I never fail to be amazed at just how awkward Div Wilson looks when he runs. It's like watching Bambi on ice. Temp season ticket card isnt great. I'll try and pick up some of the pre-cut laminate pouches to give it a bit more protection when I'm carrying it about in my wallet. Not really sure why we needed to move away from the booklet of vouchers? Edited July 26, 2022 by BallochSonsFan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

super-son Posted July 26, 2022 Share Posted July 26, 2022 Not really sure why we needed to move away from the booklet of vouchers?Possibly because you could just make one yourself in the house and it would probably come out better. It’s also moving with the times and would allow you to theoretically in future use the card for other purposes outwith the turnstiles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
