Doesn’t make a lot of sense. If my wages were a day late and I got an email from management saying it was a banking system issue beyond their control and you’ll get your dosh tomorrow, I doubt I’d be downing tools. Suppose it would depend how much I trusted management, 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fishy bit to me is on one hand claiming a global banking failure and on the other claiming to have put something in place to stop it happening again . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peil Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 There's a statement in the mail where they are also saying someone who left has the passwords for their banking, and they've offered to pay players out of gate money. Global banking issue my arse 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryMc93 Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Notice we're only entering the reserves in the cup so guaranteed 3 games along with whatever friendlies they play. Hopefully means we consider loaning out McRoberts as I expect when/if everyone is fit he'd miss out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep McRobert’s loan bryden loan Murdoch if we can bring in an experienced central midfielder and a striker 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He obviously then didn’t do that and signed for Partick Thistle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He obviously then didn’t do that and signed for Partick Thistle. I do get Smiths annoyance but gentleman’s agreements are meaningless in football. It always takes getting burned once (or twice as Todorov did it as well) for you to realise that and not take a hand shake for granted. I think he knows that now but back then he was quite thin skinned to that kind of stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fairness he negotiated his release when Kerr was manager so maybe since players talk he had more foresight than Smith on how the Hopkin appointment was going to end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You wonder what level of fitness he has , by the looks of it Peterhead are the highest placed team who have offered him a contract , otherwise he would have been somewhere else 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superhursty7 Posted August 1 Share Posted August 1 Hoping to see us line up like this on Saturday, Hastie deserves a start after a decent game against Stenny and his goal off the bench on Saturday, more than expect to see Frankie at LB but hopefully Brown swaps him and McMann around. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Left Hand side is the only area of the park which you'd probably say could still be up for debate at LB between Reading and Musonda or LM between Hastie/Murphy/McKenzie 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
