I couldn't care less and as usual I'll spend the four games just hoping for no injuries. Aye 2 Angus derbys in the league cup and playing the top 6 prem team... but just "friendlies" In other years maybe but definitely not this time, all about your attitude to the games.

Bridie Vision Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 They are glorified friendlies but the fact we have two derbies makes them more interesting than Dundee at Dens Park. Cowdenbeath, is a fairly optimistic win. St Mirren a thumping. However, we probably will lose to Montrose and Arbroath but the fact they are derbies means it's less easy to predict, especially if we get behind the team. The old 12th man adage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh aye, I'd much rather see injuries and suspensions racked up in a competition that bears little impact on the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoonsYouthTeam Posted June 8, 2023 Share Posted June 8, 2023 These groups are always about getting the least bad group possible, and I think we've had a good draw compared to what we could've had. Never been to St Mirren myself so hopefully get them a Saturday away. No teams from the same league either 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fafc1885 Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Decent signing, but I’m a big fan of this ‘let’s not sign any strikers’ policy we’ve adopted over the last three years. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottishLoon Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) Good signing that, takes some pressure off of Whyte coming back too. Although fair warning apparently Morrison was injured almost the whole season too, hopefully he's fully over it.

lwh Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 We’re well covered at centre half now with Munro, Whyte, Allan and Morrison 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Carrigan Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 Logan Dunachie - any thoughts? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottishLoon Posted June 9, 2023 Share Posted June 9, 2023 (edited) So that signing leaves the squad like this GK - McCallum RB - Nditi CB - Allan, Munro, Whyte, Morrison LB - Brindley RM/LM - Thomson CDM/CM/CAM - Moore, Whatley, Inglis ST - Probably gone - Seb Ross(CAM/LM/RM), jay Kennedy(GK) To me that leaves us with needing to sign permanently at least: 1 GK (more experienced backup than previous years) 1 LB or RB (preferably LB) 2 LM/RM (1 who naturally plays LM and then 1 who can play both) 1 CM (preferably someone who can replace what we lost with slater) 2 ST (hopefully at least 1 who guarantee's goals and maybe 1 who has potential from a lower league) Edited June 9, 2023 by ScottishLoon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only played 2 games during our bad end of season, hard to judge but seems like there's potential since he's just 19. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoonsYouthTeam Posted June 10, 2023 Share Posted June 10, 2023 Bit of an anti-climax after posting there would be a new signing. Happy enough to have him back though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
