  1. Would be interesting to know how much we're paying Gleeson and how much we would have had to pay for Mulumbu. I'm all for giving Gleeson a chance (despite shitebagging out of a 50/50 with Ryan Jack) but you'd think Mulumbu would be the more sensible option (proven at a higher level than Gleeson has ever played at and proven in the SPFL) if the wage demands were in the same ballpark.
  2. I’d rather take the loan option for a year than spend £200k signing our 6th/7th choice striker on a 3 year deal. We’ve now got 12 months to plan for the long term solution. He should be at least as good as any of the League 1/2 strikers we’ve been linked with.
  3. McGinn's still useful out wide, he's very good at getting a cross in without needing to actually get past the full back.
  4. Apparently there’s an unnamed Scottish team battling with Hearts to get Demetri Mitchell on loan for the season. Could be us?
  5. I guarantee that father will be getting abusive calls from them for the next couple of weeks.
  6. I hope there's a hell of a lot more to come from Gleeson and Forrester, they were really off the pace.
  7. Tailgating is fucking ace though. No chance we’d ever be allowed to rock up to the stadium car park with a cool box full of tinnies and a barbecue.
  8. Fuck's sake, the reason I come on here is to avoid reading what those zoomers mash into their keyboards, can we keep their attention seeking nonsense on their own site?
  9. If we'd done the sensible thing last summer and signed him on loan instead of spunking £400k on him, how many people think we would have followed that up and paid cash for him this summer? It was an incredible risk and it doesn't really look like paying off.
  10. I’d be surprised if we bought a target man, that’s Cosgrove’s role. You should never go full-Levein.
  11. The importance of those attributes is diluted somewhat when that is a striker’s only attributes.
  12. I would like to think that over the last 5 years or so that we have evolved from being a team that has a striker in the starting 11 on the basis that he “puts himself about” and “holds the ball up well”. I haven’t seen anything from Cosgrove that suggests his role should be anything more than taking over the “we’re out of ideas, let’s thump the ball up to the big man for the last 10 minutes” role that Ash Taylor previously occupied.
  13. Who scored our goals?
  14. Seems sensible to me. Did well at Dumbarton, not so well at Falkirk. Now he’s a couple of years older, a whole season playing in the SPL will either show him up as not being good enough or cement his position as the successor to Lewis. If he is to be our future first choice keeper then we need him to get as many top league games under his belt as we can until the time comes for him to take over. He’s not going to progress sitting on the bench for another season.

    At least it’ll be a cracking battle in the streets if the Russians get past Croatia.
  16. Maybe so but I have a feeling that if Celtic offered Christie to us for £500k and he was keen to sign, we’d find the cash.
  17. Not sure if we have anything left in the pot for transfer fees but Chris Cadden has a year left in his contract so could be available relatively cheaply. That would be an exciting signing worth pushing the boat out for.
  18. It certainly wasn’t us either unfortunately.
  19. Hamilton signed Ziggy Gordon who plays the same positions as this McGowan guy. Hamilton don't seem to be the sort of team that doubles up on players in each position.
  20. Jack Ross gives Chris Maguire a 2 year contract at Sunderland in addition to the Hearts goalie and ex-Hearts defender Alim Ozturk. I hope he knows what he's doing filling his team with mediocre SPL players.
  21. Pornhub not working?
  22. Apparently our group is: Atalanta AZ Alkmaar Burnley Zalgiris Vilnius Molde/Glenavon

    Is that Japanese keeper the guy who was old and shit for the pikeys?
  24. Cove v Cowdenbeath should be tasty.
  25. I particularly like the “Snug Bar” advert sellotaped to the socks, dead classy that.
