It's not necessarily good business, and the club did try and keep the players, but it's not the massive 'exodus' or disaster some are making out. Clearly we would have liked to keep the players, but I'm glad the club is being sensible in it's approach and not paying wages outwith the budget. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was being a tad sarcastic but as I said elsewhere these guys were probably getting what they were worth at the pars and are now being vastly overpaid by United and County. Its similar to the situation you had when sevco were floating about the seaside leagues and paying players like Ian Black 7k a week. for the players themselves it must be like winning the lottery getting overpaid considering the level of wages they would normally expect to be getting.

Me also, when he signed I thought a good solid honest player made for this league and a good addition to us the level we were at....... How wrong was I.................[emoji33] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UnitedLoon63 Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 On the ball Scobbie is terrible, 99% of the time he just punts it...similar to Durnan. Moshni surprisingly on the ball was very good, need someone like him again to calm the defence 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes but last season they weren't being coached by a tactical mastermind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Morris possibly as he was good to start off with before McNamara ruined him by making him play through injury. Seems to have done well at Dunfermline. No to the Spanish crock who couldn't get into a clownshoes defence when fit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emiliano ZaBankie Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 If we were having a fire sale we'd be selling players who were under contract. We've been extremely well run for the past few years and this is continuing, the way the season went brought is in more money than we had budgeted for. We're simply unwilling to offer player more money than they are worth. Genuinely pleased to hear this, massive kudos also to Szamo’s Ammo for highlighting what a great bunch of lads the Arabs are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Szamo's_Ammo Posted June 7, 2018 Share Posted June 7, 2018 How many more players do we need? IMO: 2 x goalkeepers 1 x experienced right back 3 x centre backs 2 x central midfielders 1 x winger Hopefully Edge and Scobbie are gone soon, never to return. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
