The fact all them groups apart from the fed have positions within the club tells you it wont work.

Pat, the board do meet with Arabtrust business club and ULFT but they will not meet with the fed as the federation have the biggest collective support out of all these groups the board IMHO are being disrespectful to the fans, if they have nothing to hide why won't they meet with us?

What position do 'ordinary fans like me' have within the club?
And even if some of the people on the groups other than the Fed have positions within the club (what positions are these, if you could indicate please?) are you arguing that everyone at the club is happy with our situation presently?
As I'm saying, we have to be united in our approach, not blame everyone else apart from the folk you may be closest to.

Wonder if Celtic knew anything about it?
Probably in Thompson's mind.

I'm trying to suggest a collective meeting where as many groups as possible can put a united view across. I doubt if ST would want to be present, given the resentment towards him from a very large section of the fan base. And it would be wise, if such a gathering could be organised, if each group could be represented by folk who are assertive in their position, without using rage as means for their stance.
It appears the board are not in the present or near future going to meet the Fed on their own, so such a move might be a useful alternative.

bowers, I'm not asking to be directly represented, in fact I don't know what the liason group is. I'm trying to suggest a method of getting better communication, possibly and especially for the Fed.

I wasnt meaning you as am individual.
The liason group was set up by Jim spence colin stewart and includes someone from fed at ult dubc and an independant fan whp nobody knows what the criteria was for that person to be given that chance. That is who im assuming someone not associated to any of the groups can go to if they have an issue or something.

Thanks bowers. I was aware that an idea for a liason group had been put forward, but didn't know it had actually been set up.

Yeah its been set up from start of season but seems a waste of time.

Ray did talk about trying to continue to improve the squad in the Arabzone interview which is quite a brave comment considering the disappointment currently felt by most after deadline day. This would maybe be the reason.
Alex Nicholls plays on both wings apparently, so we could bring a left or right winger. Anyone know Templeton's preferred wing?
Offline
Templeton plays off the left side, normally.
Offline
No idea how fit the lad is at the moment, but I think he could be a decent option.
Offline
In loads of the papers the night. Courier, Current Bun etc.
Offline
Templeton didn't play or make the bench for the Dev team v Falkirk.
Online!
With Templetons injury record plus his lack of match fitness is it possible the move to Forfars plastic pitch scuppered any chance he had of playing?
If i were him /United I wouldn't fancy risking myself on plastic with a dodgy knee and lack of fitness.
Offline
In fairness, if he's just started proper training he'll be nowhere near match fit. I'd reckon it'll be a few weeks before he starts a game.

Agree with yiz both Morph n' Nemo.
Last competitive game I think was near the end of 2015. RMcK offered him training being desperate for wingers. This might be his last proper go at getting back playing after a few ops to fix him. Maybe why Tannadice was the rare choice for the Dev game initially?
Offline
Tannadice was pencilled in before we gave him training.
Ive been told that He is nowwhrre near fit and carrying extra weight. Ray wants to get him fit. Id imagine we will see him getting a run out in a couple weeks if still here.
Offline
at the Q&A monday night, Ray said he was at least 6 weeks away from being fit.
