Quitongo is full-time. I assume Frizzell will be also. Wardrop and Watson have jobs outside of football so will be part-time. Don’t know about Allan but I imagine he’ll be on a pretty low wage either way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If his fitness level is similar to his last spell we were definitely paying him in fish suppers at that point... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My reason for asking is full time players will have more chance to improve as footballers. Quite a few are unimpressed with the new signings. If the they play and train full time they can gel as a squad quicker and maybe avoid the problems of past seasons where its taken a few weeks into the season for them to play as a team. Part timers are fine but will naturally take longer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless they are put on the park with a structure and a plan A plan B a bit better than previous seasons, it won't matter part time or full time, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wardrop is a personal trainer, could potentially still do that even if he was full time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All I'm saying is folk are losing their heads over players they haven't seen in a diamond yet. I'm sure someone's commented before that the likes of Andy Ryan came from teams who were below us in folks estimations. We've been in this league for 7 seasons ? How can we be expected to be sign lower league superstars ! Am I utterly buzzing at our signings so far ? No. But do I think we should at least give players a chance before going into a "were doomed" melt down ? Aye. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you'll find that people are pissed off that the noises coming from the club are "league 1 title challengers" and the signings are "already proven bottom half of league 1 jobbers". That seems a beyond simple concept to understand. But don't let that get in the way of your happy clapping.

All I'm saying is maybe we should calm down a bit and see what happens/players turn out like ! And I've posted in the past but lost my log in , sorry I didn't know I had to qualify that before posting. If you could send me a rule sheet of what's considered happy clapping and what's not that would be great. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
