Sorry to diversify annan, coz I know Tek will hit me on the back of the hand we a ruler, but did you by any chance attend oor away match in '66 against Barca at the Nou Camp?

Anyone else ever had a bit of a soft spot for Southampton?

No, fuck them.

Sacked Luggy after the players turned against him after keeping them in the Premiership then taking 4 points (win, lose, draw) in the opening three games of the season (from memory two of the first three games were Liverpool & Arsenal)

Fuck them and fuck them again.

I get worried when I hear the phrases such as "highly regarded" and he has "played for England at youth level". Similar things were said about Aron Kuhl and he must have been our worst ever signing possibly topping Tony Mols or the very exciting to see, Alec Nicholls. So it looks like we are going forward into our most crucial season ever with a reserve keeper with a handful of games under his belt who fans of his previous club (if true) described in very unflattering terms and an extra (loanee) bairn who has probably played less senior games than Harry Mollison. I was there in '65 and I fear the Fun might be about to get their long-awaited revenge.

So signing Deniz and Huey within the space of two days leads to us getting massacred on July 30?
I think NOT Annan, our goalkeeping position as of July 15 is strengthened.

I was there in '65 too & was also at The Dump last nite & am pleased to report that Fundee are still sh1te. Bolton in 3rd gear were too good for the same old Funsters. 2-1 going on 3-0.

On the basis of "looks alone" according to Smedka, he fell into his wife's arms, crying tears of joy after seeing him in the Montrose game last week.

He's got to be worth a shout, if the budget could be stretched enough to bring in a big target man alongside him, we surely have to go for it. Having Keatings, N'Koyi, a big fuck off target man and Scott McDonald as our striking options would pretty much guarantee us 1st place IMO.

I'm not going to be allowed to forget this, am I?!
In my defence again, I was REALLY pished, it was midnight thirty after the Hamilton game, the emotion, the relief even, at the end of such a roller-coaster season which went to the last minute after ten and a half months hit home. My lovely wife greeted me with, 'aw darling, you lost' & I wept in her arms. Nothing wrong with that is there?

Keep digging!

Anyway back on topic, Mehmet + Lewis > Bell. Two for one. Our No 1 position is strengthened. Wait & see.
'Looks alone' was of course totally tongue in cheek. When I saw him at Links Park I said I don't know if it's Long or Donaldson (that's what I thought at first sorry), but whichever one it is he's grown over the summer & I've seldom seen anyone who looks more like a goalkeeper.

Keep digging?

Toughen up min ffs

nixonisworth20million · 17/7/2017 2:34 pm

Maybe nothing but I see Briels is number 20 which leaves the number 8 shirt empty (as Murdoch has moved to No. 2)... might mean nothing but a first XI shirt being empty is unusual.

Quinn off to Hamilton??

Read on the ever reliable source that is Wikipedia that the Dundalk lad is an architect... could be another McAllister scenario!
