From purely a football perspective I agree there’s better than Cruicky, he would admit that. But purely for the effort and enthusiasm he puts into being a Brechin player he deserves a contract, he’s the first (if not only) lad that’s over interacting with the young lads in the main stand after a match. And don’t get me wrong he’s a more than capable player when required.

 

At the end of last season when we brought in Luke Strachan, which probably cost a few quid, we'd have been better playing Cruickshank more often.  Has never let us down.

That’s promotion gone already,to get a decent manager you need to splash the cash,so the aims of this board have failed.

And if they splashed the cash on a decent manager you'd then moan we've splashed the cash 😂😂

I remember him saying that if he didn't get another contract with us he'd call time on his career.

Good enough for a back up and I'm sure he doesn't cost an arm and a leg to have on the books.

No surprise there, he had already ‘called time’ on his career after he left Carnoustie. 

That season we won the league really was the peak of attendances and connection with the community. 
 

And regarding Luke Strachan, he wouldn’t still be a footballer if it wasn’t for Granda Gordon, he is pish.

Absolutely he is pish, as was the guy from Ross County!

Matthew Wright released now - would be amazed if he remains in the SPFL

Didn’t get the hate for Wright if I’m honest. Stuck wide on the left more often than not and that did not suit him.

If you look at a certain comment from a few days ago, you'll probably find the manager's name there.

 

Can you enlighten me (being genuine here) on what all this mafia crap is about?

Wow Robbie Raeside I was hoping that was a joke,really scraping the bottom of the barrel with that one,he’s just as bad as the Price appointment.Wheres the ambition gone,they pretty thought it would be easy to get out of the highland league.May as well get used to being a middle highland league team now.

Think Grady or  Spark might go.   think cruickshank  is out of contract and didnt get much game time so he might go too  most of the squad is under contract so can't see many going 

How about handling and McDonald?

They are also out of contract - would be very surprised if we could offer then enough money to sign on again. Additionally McDonald had a serious injury last season and missed the whole campaign (only made a subs appearance in the last home game)

As I've said before - the budget dictates the calibre of person coming in. If it is Raeside then so be it  - he'll get my initial support

Wright was wildly talented in his spell at Brora and scored a bucketload in half a season. Either Brechin wasted him playing him out of position or the boy resented dropping down again and couldn’t be arsed. Either way, strange to get next to nothing out of him.

He was a trialist for us a few years ago wasn’t he? 

Don't remember that, doesn't mean it didn't happen right enough.

 

I remember him being a great player for Falkirk and St Johnstone though.
