Mulgrew and Fletcher also undecided apparently.

Mulgrew’s got a hard neck, good luck to him if he thinks a Premiership team would be interested in him at this point. The cunt is done, his only use now would be if they melted him down for glue. Also, he’s obviously committed to his coaching career eh? You’d think he’d be in with Jim before pre-season started, planning for the season ahead, no playing tennis abroad the day before the team’s due back for pre-season. Sums up the cunt’s attitude for me.

Fletcher you can’t fault for his efforts last season, but do we really want to be paying 3/4k a week for him to score 10-12 goals in the Championship next season? If someone wants him, let him go, and go get Akinyemi in. Surely the money saved by binning Mulgrew, Fletcher, Behich and Djoum would allow us to throw 100/150k at Ayr for him?

Hopefully get a wee few for Behich and use it to get Harry Milne in from PartickThistle, would be much more useful at LB than Behich has ever been for us

Partick had/have 3 good players - Tiffoney, Turner and MacMillan.

If we sign 3 of their average one's then we really are Donald Ducked.


 

 
Signing loads of so called big names last season didn't really work out so it might just be the way to go, time will tell.

Behich is a good example of our scouting and signing policy being poor over last few years.

As a left winger, he created opportunities.

As a left wing back, he created opportunities and helped us move the ball up the park. However, he got found out defensively

Jack Ross came in and wanted to play a flat back four, with Behich at left back.  The AZ game was a nightmare,  he looked miles out of position.

Who signed him and why?

Some players were more culpable than others.
However it became apparent that during 9-0 game collectively the 'team' did not give a fuck what the final score was was.
We need as big a turnover of players this summer as possible. 
Anyone who is not 100% committed should leave immediately.

Absolutely,  they demonstrated as a collective group that they couldn't have given one single fuck about us on quite a few occasions.

Marches, flag displays, record season ticket sales the lot and most of that lot chucked it.

One thing I would like to see though is a bit of movement on the keeper. I know it's early doors and im impatient but I would like to see confirmation that he is either off or cutting the grass but definitely not to even turn up for training.

Djoum away.

I'm not fussed about Fletcher going, purely because I wasn't expecting him to stay anyway.

Behich wants away also. Sell him for as much as we can get and use whatever money he generates to reinvest in the squad.

Apparently we've had a bid of £100k rejected by Ayr for Akinyemi. Ayr want £150k

 
No messing about, just get this done.

Agreed, I'd offer £120k plus Birighitti and Chalmers going to Ayr.

 
No idea at all why Ayr or anyone else would touch Birighitti with a fucking barge pole.

If Fletch/Levitt/Behich want to go then so be it. They were all part of a relegated team that threw 3 managers under the bus. I want them gone and new signings in by August 3rd so we’re ready for the league.

 
This

Mulgrew and Birrighitti training today

Trevor Carson has seemingly fallen out with Robinson at the Buddies and hasn’t been taken on their pre-season tour to NI. Whispers that we’re interested, as well as The Fun.
