Apart from Saturday not being the best date I don't see how it was so daft, would rather have played Marlow than the likes of Gretna. It isn't as if it was going to cost us a great deal of money with it being at Palmerston. The greatest inconvenience would be on Marlow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Partick may well have lost interest in East - he wasn't involved in their closed door game at the weekend and didn't get a full half in their previous friendly. Maybe his lastminute.com approach to signing deals* is going to bite him on the bum this year. * not just with us, I believe he left Albion Rovers in the dark throughout the summer before he joined us when an offer was on the table from them. Would you take him back if the door is still open to him? I'm not sure if I would, and personally think he would find himself to be more of a squad player than starter, albeit a handy one to have given that he is left sided.

I’d be happy if East was with us this season. Left sided and adaptable. I’ve no difficulty with players looking around to get the best deal they can. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I won't lose any sleep if he doesn't come back and like DD I have no issue with players trying to better themselves but I certainly wouldn't be upset if he can't get better than us and accepts the offer we've given him (providing it hasn't since been pulled). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, that's how I see it. I reckon MB is looking at Brydon and McClelland as being his first choice centre backs and of course McKay is already available as a back up hence why I feel East may be more of a squad player should he return. All depends how bad Brydon's injury is I suppose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think East would also be able to cover at left back where, currently, Church is injured and the other lad is still at school (Logan could also switch). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skyline Drifter Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Charlie Cowie joins Gretna on loan for the season with a recall option in the agreement. http://www.qosfc.com/news-6127 No surprise. He was clearly always going out on loan to get games as we don't need a 3rd keeper sitting in the stand and he played for Gretna against us as a trialist last week. Hopefully works well for all parties. He had a great season last year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's something there for sure. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrankReynolds Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 First visit to Palmerston today for quite a while. Disappointed to see it getting worse and whoever painted the turnstiles must be having a laugh, the blue paint is everywhere, what a mess. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately when the club constantly relies on fans giving up their own time to do such maintenance jobs then it’s never going to be perfect. It’s unlikely to change under the current regime I’d imagine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or did they try to paint by launching the buckets of paint at them? Did the paint explode when they opened the tin? All fair questions when you see the mess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

billyqos Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Frank Reynolds - maybe you could have volunteered to assist and made the stadium look like the Bernabeu Stadium..................................... cut some slack please!!!

Monkey Tennis Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 I just want to see that bloody sign updated. Our first competitive game is 5 days away and our league fixtures were published weeks ago. However, the sign is still proclaiming our next match to be that against Kelty in early May. There are bigger issues, but it bugs me. Still. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fae_the_'briggs Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 Decided to buy my season ticket a couple of days ago. I like to print off a pdf copy in case of mobile phone malfunction at the turnstile ( or more likely my bad eyesight and stubby fingers causing cock-up), I notice it says event commences May '23 finishes Dec' 23 which seems a bit odd for a league season that runs from August 23 to May 24. What's that all about. Last season's ticket had the correct start and end dates. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
