Reference Gallagher, Babunski & now Docherty. The club is being quite critical, no time for sentiment, which is the way it should be I guess.
We know nothing of the contracts and surmising could be so inaccurate.
I'd have a guess that Gallagher got a 2-yr contact in 2023 on £3k/wk and maybe this time he was offered just one year at £2.5k??
Middleton might be on £2.5k and has maybe been offered 2 years at £2k? Really don't know.
What he has to do is weigh up the consequences & speak to his wife. It is all about bread & butter & we as a club do not have money to burn.
Anyone ITK?

SCH was brilliant yesterday and on Wednesday.

His snapshot on the edge of the box was absolute quality

We should be getting him signed up on a long contract and make him our main man for the next few years

I hope Ross G is also getting well rested up for next season

Agreed 100%. We might have something special on our hands here.
Was Jim right in keeping him back the last few weeks or should he have come in when Holt departed?

Doubt very much he's been enjoying the way we play and will have his suitcases packed. I believe Blackpool were watching him, he's going to end up at the likes of them or Preston Bolton Stockport etc and triple wages if not more.

You're right Redford, we're crippled by wages.
If you're half decent in our team you'll get £3k/wk.
You'll easy get that in the 5th tier down south.
Three times that that in the 4th tier etc etc.
So the English market isn't really for us.
All we can afford is the loan percentages but then maybe not even that.
 

I'd guess he was 95% fit so benched him for him to be 100% for the far more important game v the Sheep.
Shame in a way cos it's not often a player, even goalies, can say he played 90 mins of every single game.

We were screaming for fresh faces in January and when they were announced we were all pretty chuffed remember.
But if we hadn't signed anyone we'd still be screaming yet.
You cannae win.

Two policemen stationed at either side of the Jerry Kerr section behind the dugouts would do the trick would it not?

Constable will most likely end up as a right back or a central midfielder so we could well see him in the first team.

My mate who watched the youths said that Charlie Dewar is the best player they've got so I would not rule him out yet.

I wish I could watch the youths.
In fact I wish the youths could watch the youths - they hardly ever play!
Was that one game your mate saw them?
Some of them must be worn out after a 12-game season.

P.S. On checking the website they don't play at all.
 

No, he goes to all the home games and some away games as well, he has a family member in the u18s.
 

I appreciate if you had a relative playing you would try to watch as many games as possible, irrespective of day & time.
Outwith the first team I haven't seen a single 'other' game this season but it's not for the want of trying. I can't get to St Andrews on a Tuesday afternoon.
It gets very little coverage too, I can't see much at all on the official website. There are certainly no squad details whatsover tho I don't think our website wins many prizes.

Celtic will get the Shed, Jerry Kerr and Fair Play, as they have for the last 30 odd years. United won't sell much more than the George Fox and ET stand for this game.

That's it exactly.
And I'll be sitting in the Dode Upper minding my own business.
And I'll be counting.
Kerching.
 

Yeah, we've got there but it's not been bonny, far from it.
I've seen better games on the Coup.
Yesterday was the season in a microcosm.
We now can benefit from a large turnover of staff but please, no dummies.
