Mentorred Posted August 7, 2012 Report Posted August 7, 2012 So they have learned their lesson about overspending??? :hammer: We will see how these over paid 3rd divison players enjoy playing at Peterhead etc in the cold winter months in front of 1000 fans. Quote
KGB Posted August 7, 2012 Report Posted August 7, 2012 So they have learned their lesson about overspending??? :hammer: We will see how these over paid 3rd divison players enjoy playing at Peterhead etc in the cold winter months in front of 1000 fans. The mentality of there fans is one of triumphalism. Assuming that they keep on winning, which looks increasingly likely because of the quality of player they are recruiting then the great unwashed will keep turning up to see them tanking whoever is in front of them. They just like being associated with winning because it in some small way makes up for the other serious inadequacies in their lives such as drug abuse, morbid obesity, autism, inbreeding, burst arse syndrome due to Grandpas baby sitting etc etc I dont think the 1000 fans scenario will pan out unless they start getting dodgy results against the likes of East Stirling and Albion Rovers.

Madbadteacher Posted August 7, 2012 Report Posted August 7, 2012 Fucking biggest squad in Scottish football? Maybe rasellik might have more, but this really is a fucking joke, hence my complaint the signing ban should have been from liquidation/newsevco date NOT the end of the current fucking transfer window! I hope (and I'm not a nasty person) they all get long term injuries and canna play for most of the season! Quote
Jute Posted August 7, 2012 Report Posted August 7, 2012 No way they are signing these players to fight their way through the divisions. They clearly expect to back in top flight or SPL 2 by next year at the latest. Quote

glasgow sheep Posted August 7, 2012 Report Posted August 7, 2012 I've thought the most likely scenario is 2yrs out of the top league rather than 3 but still not clear how they will make the jump from 4th tier to 2nd tier. Would need massive expansion of both top league which seems unlikely, esp as it would need integration with non-league for the rump of the sfl to have somewhere to play. Quote
Mentorred Posted August 7, 2012 Report Posted August 7, 2012 How many Internationals do they have in their team tonight? Quote
glasgow sheep Posted August 7, 2012 Report Posted August 7, 2012 Best to ignore div3 this season......... Quote
Madbadteacher Posted August 7, 2012 Report Posted August 7, 2012 How many Internationals do they have in their team tonight? I would hope the SFL doesn't pander to them and give them international weeks off just cos they signed so many Quote
Jute Posted August 8, 2012 Report Posted August 8, 2012 I would hope the SFL doesn't pander to them and give them international weeks off just cos they signed so many Sadly its in the rules that any team with more than 3 players on international duty can postpone their game. Quote
BigAl Posted August 8, 2012 Report Posted August 8, 2012 How many Internationals do they have in their team tonight? Eight ! Quote
glasgowdon Posted August 8, 2012 Report Posted August 8, 2012 Best to ignore div3 this season......... It was the League Cup. Or have I just bitten? Quote
glasgow sheep Posted August 8, 2012 Report Posted August 8, 2012 It was the League Cup. Or have I just bitten? I know but that was a div 2 team they humped, what will it be like in div3? Quote
BigAl Posted August 8, 2012 Report Posted August 8, 2012 Accusations of fiddling the gate numbers at Ipox last night. Kick off delayed for full twenty minutes to allow the crowd in. Reported on the half time report I heard as being a full house, but official crowd given as 38,120. Radio Scotland questioned Green about this after the game apparently and he just laughed about it. Not like Der Hun to cheat and defraud other clubs out of cash is it ! Quote

Not like Der Hun to cheat and defraud other clubs out of cash is it ! quote from the bbc Many observers believed the attendance was greater than the official figure. "It seems to me like the old days where there were 40,000 but only 20,000 paid and the other went god knows where," admitted the chief executive. Quote
Madbadteacher Posted August 8, 2012 Report Posted August 8, 2012 Well, if only 50% pay each home game ye're gonna go bust AGAIN! Quote
tlg1903 Posted August 8, 2012 Report Posted August 8, 2012 Apparently the club deck was closed for the game Quote
tom_widdows Posted August 8, 2012 Report Posted August 8, 2012 Apparently the club deck was closed for the game So the really evil sectarian element cant be arsed turning up to see them play Fife's most successful club? Suppose there is a microscopic silver lining Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted August 9, 2012 Report Posted August 9, 2012 Club deck got opened to let the unexpectedly large hoard in. Quote

glasgowdon Posted August 10, 2012 Report Posted August 10, 2012 What is this "club deck"? I just thought it was a wee array of seats under one of the screens? Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted August 10, 2012 Report Posted August 10, 2012 The debenture seats above the main stand. Quote
glasgowdon Posted August 10, 2012 Report Posted August 10, 2012 The debenture seats above the main stand. Ah ok, and what's the big deal with them? Height of Scumbaggery? Quote
