Interesting comment from someone at the club on the Facebook group about lots happening behind the scenes currently.

Don't want this to sound aggressive but is there any club where there's not "lots happening behind the scenes currently"?

Referring back to our rivalry with Airdrie around the betting scandal season, there was a real poisonous edge to the atmosphere at our matches back then.  All which seemed to stem from the Chic Kavanagh incident.  One highlight was when Airdrie took offence to an article in the Morton fanzine depicting them as a bunch of Nazis.   They demanded an apology which Morton said they would give once Airdrie removed their troops from the Polish border.

Or something like that.

A fair point. However, given this person's very close proximity to operational matters and the post it was in response to it was slightly more than that, but yeah you're right.

In fairness, we have been really quick off the mark this year with the two Hibee's on board. Obviously being in the play offs left us a couple of weeks behind most others.

Some of the comments, probably the ones you pertain to on the Facebook group would most certainly be more accurate than most of the speculation that does the rounds.

Absolutely this. Much more eloquently put than my attempt.

Yeah heard a couple of boys resigned and there’s been a good few offers to players from other clubs, hopefully hear some announcements early this week.

No speculation on names of players being loaned from West Ham and Celtic yet? This is very disappointing.

The annual when’s the West Ham striker being announced, classic

Now that we can agree on. Would love to see us do a centenary kit for the 1924 cup final win. Even just as a one off. As I think Thistle did in 2021? 

It’s my understanding that this is exactly what will be happening - 3 kits as normal this year and then a special one off released next year to mark the anniversary.

Any of the four released in time for the start of the season or are we dragging the current set out until October again?
