Not to interrupt this highly amusing seethe-fest of us extending the contract of someone who clearly isn't good enough but the people who think that have LITERALLY NEVER SEEN HIM KICK A FUCKING FOOTBALL, but when do the released players actually get released? If we're furloughing players it's surely right to keep them on until we can't furlough any more to guarantee these lads an income.

And I'm sure Ross County were happy when he popped 1 in their net!!

It was. It’s all good. If the team looks sharp and they get any small hints/tips from my mock-ups then I see that as a positive. I love the team, and I love classy kit designs no matter who does them.

The news today about the streaming option was the final push I needed and tonight I bought my first season ticket in 18 years. If you've been thinking about it and you too need a little persuasion - feel free to use this post as the catalyst to getting a season ticket for this coming season!

I have absolutely no idea how good or bad Robinson's boy is but you don't need to delve very far at all to realise how many signings and appointments in football have been heavily influenced by direct or indirect relationships so, whilst a father signing his son is perhaps a bit more rare, in the respect of a player/manager getting a helping hand because of who they happen to know it isn't massively uncommon.

And if he is better than them??

Gentleman, the point is, young lad's who have been knocking their pan in for the last couple of years will end up on the scrapheap, but they see the gaffer's son walk in after being released and get an extension. Not only that the club list him in 1st team squad, cmon

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

The sponsor will hopefully be placed beneath the band. If they have any design sense this is where it should go. I’m sure they won’t let us down.

You’re not joking! I just wish they liked it enough to pay me!

You'll always have narrow-minded people who cry nepotism before they ever see a boy kick a ball. In reality, this isn't boys' club football, where the opposite is often the case - in professional football, it can work against the player. Most coaches are totally fair, but the Cadden boys always had to work harder to prove themselves to some people (and have proved their ability since, obviously, being established pros) and I know from my own boy's experience that most people either didn't know his grandfather had had a prominent connection with the club in the past or were fair minded and didn't care, but the only time it affected him is when one coach felt that he was only there because of his connection and held it against him. He survived that year thanks to the opinion of other coaches but it showed that "nepotism" tends to work against you, never for you. You can be sure that there will have been long discussions about Harry and that, because of family connection, the final decision will have been hard and will only have been based on football ability because they will have been acutely aware of the opinions he will be up against.
