qos1990 Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Alexander's line was “We want to carry, maybe, two or three more players than we first planned because of the issues with Covid - they are not going away." to me that would have meant running with a squad of 25-ish based on his comments last season about preferring to run with a relatively tight group. We were on 29 bodies, that's down to 28 with Johnston's loan. Assuming Chairman Flao is good on his word that the other young players around the team go out on loan as well (subject to them being recovered from injuries etc) that should be another 3 and bring the squad down to 25. After that I suppose it depends on whether certain players actually want to play or if they'll be happy sat in the stands as a squad of 25 means you've got 7 sat out of the matchday squad (assuming everyone is fit). As I said earlier we're at the point where realistically Crawford and Lawless don't even make the bench most weeks. Kelly SOD Ojala Johansen Carroll Slattery Donnelly Goss Roberts KVV Watt Subs (7 from): Fox, Lamie, Mugabi, O'Connor, McGinley, Grimshaw, Maguire, O'Hara, Crawford, Parker, Woolery, Lawless, Amaluzor, Shields That's a pool of 14 subs/reserves. It's not difficult to imagine trimming one or two if a Championship club wanted to take them off our hand on loan.Take a striker… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Has KVV been hanging about with O'Connor too much? Genuinely sounds Cork born and raised at about eight seconds in. https://www.facebook.com/210454735864/posts/10159235502460865/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
well fan for life Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Can we get a weekly update from KVV & O'Connor's gaff. Looks like an absolute carry on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should just go round and chap them up. I thought it was a bit weird they didn't at least blur out their flat numbers. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rowsdower Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 I think apple TV would buy that sitcom. Grimshaw as a guest star, a side arc about Las coming to terms with being usurped as the housewives favorite, and Jim Goodwin as the baddie that tries to kidnap them. We have a hit on our hands. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'WellDel Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 Not sure if it's a question that's been asked/answered on here already, but was there any word from the club on uptake for the free season tickets? Don't know if it was through that, or just larger numbers than usual due to it being one of the first games back to relative normality, but the area of the Cooper where I sit was noticeably busier at the Dundee game than it would normally have been for a similar fixture pre-covid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kapowzer Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 (edited) Not even taking bets that if you pull a bedknob in VanVeen’s bedroom a secret door opens to his 50 shades sex dungeon. Buy half a dozen go-pros from eBay, dot then round and charge £10 a month sub, Mbappe will be within our reach on a precontract by January.

Gianfranco Posted September 2, 2021 Share Posted September 2, 2021 A Lanarkshire version of Keenan and Kel = Darragh and Kev. But Kev doesn’t like orange soda, he likes all the pakoras. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smpar Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 Superb stuff from Motherwell sending emails to fans who missed the game to check in if they’re doing ok. The ‘Well leading by example in UK football once again. Feel like Dunfermline should do something similar, but instead you get a wellbeing email if you actually attended the game. “You alright? Spending £20 on that, you fucking weirdo.” 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ‘Well leading by example in UK football once again. Feel like Dunfermline should do something similar, but instead you get a wellbeing email if you actually attended the game. “You alright? Spending £20 on that, you fucking weirdo.” What can we say? We exist to improve people's lives. Given <everything else> that the club does there's zero doubt that this is coming from a genuine place. It's something that's pretty difficult to pull off without seeming slightly weird and intrusive and "Big Brother-y" (because it is slightly weird and intrusive and "Big Brother-y") but fair fucks to the club for just going with it despite that. Ultimately if you shake off the cynicism, you're making headway into making people feel valued and also understand wants/needs of your fanbase. People talk a lot about "fan engagement" and Chairman Flao's reply to @Busta Nut's not entirely serious tweet kind of highlights the broader aspect of what we're trying to achieve. On a secondary level it's market research to find out why they weren't able to make the game and if it's a reason that the club can address eg: if the ST holder didn't feel safe, can we do something about that. That's the good shit right there. Actually "reaching out" and asking your core base questions and digging into the data is a very smart move.

Neil86 Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 The way Darragh O'Connor says 'Hi Kev' is the kind of wholesome content I want to see more of. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
