Dons_1988 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 2 minutes ago, DrewDon said: I'm sure everybody would pick a win on Sunday - I can just imagine some digging him out for it if we lose at Hampden too. I'm possibly being too cynical about our fans. I thought the reaction to the selection in Helsinki, although I didn't travel so maybe would have felt differently if I was actually there, was a bit OTT too, though. Agreed that was over the top but an away game in Europe is pretty unique for those that travel and will have cost a lot of money. I don’t think team selection at a home game would provoke the same reaction. The losing the final anyway criticism is inevitable. Resting players doesn’t guarantee anything, but you can’t really avoid the moron element that think like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likewise, I doubt we will either with the cup final next weekend. Eintracht are at Leverkusen on Sunday - so reckon at £34, this could be the most expensive reserve match many of us have attended. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been calls to bring back the reserve league for player development. I hadn’t realised this was at the European level though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don exotic Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 (edited) I’m hoping AFC can say the same and also win a cup this week. Edited December 10, 2023 by Don exotic 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I moved ST this year to back of RDR. What I didn’t take into consideration is the extra cup matches are all platinum category so this one’s costing me £40 suppose I could’ve switched seat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the stars are aligning a bit more this time. Still hope it works out for Barry, but if not, the FMB should be in a position to act quickly. Not sure a Tynecastle vacancy is far away either given the mood music there. Would imagine Neil may be more inclined to consider a move back north this time (if indeed he is a credible candidate, which I'm sure he would be for both clubs depending on his wage demands). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flammable sheep Posted December 12, 2023 Share Posted December 12, 2023 AGM highlights from twitter seem to be Dave would bin VAR Working at an operating loss and counting on player sales to make profit No bank debt "Including manager Barry Robson and the senior players, we all agree that our league form has not been good enough. As with every manager we employ, Barry will be judged on results over the coming weeks, months, and, as we sincerely hope, seasons" Barron contract talks "ongoing" (imo more likely going nowhere, hence him being dropped recently) Vinnie working hard to impress in training but not getting a game because everyone in front of him is performing well (aye right) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rumours are pre-contract with the **** but then who knows, it's exactly the week a rumour like that would appear. Maybe we'll be lucky and a new agent will look at Lewis Ferguson as an example and get Connor on a new deal pronto 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
