I’m lost already, what number are we?

I’d prefer we avoided Mostar as well , they’ve previously made the group stages of the conference league so won’t be easy - happy to meet them in the group stages

If, as has been reported, we’re holding out for circa £5m for Maswanhise, then I’d think we’d be looking for similar if not more for Just.

More likely they’re happy to get 500k off their wage bill

I’d have thought that the chairman and others would be off to the conference league draw so it seems a strange time to announce the new manager unless they’re doing it before they leave

Obviously the guys never met Kettlewell

Seems like a pro mo video to show how much we value him, basically saying you better be willing to pay top dollar for him to anybody wanting him.

Great research lads will be interesting to see if any of them are even quoted for the job never mind get it.

He’s hasn’t got a chance of playing for Celtic next season who will probably be looking to offload him so they should be willing to let him go for nothing or run the risk of paying him to train with them for a year but knowing that lot they’ll probably ask for funny money for him.

Typical SFA appointment, keeping Scottish football in the dark ages. Need to get rid of the shite running the game before we can look forward.

That’s the national game fucked

100% We can’t afford to lose Watt & Just, one would be bad enough but both along with Slattery would decimate our midfield. Losing one of them would be difficult enough but both is out of the question - I hope. If possible I’d like to keep Watt & Just until the European ties are done at the very least giving us time to bed in any replacements alongside Priestman if need be.

Not got any problems with McGlynn but I’d rather have him as the next Scotland manager.

What did you ask - Give me one outside maybe at a push if we’re struggling and two get to fucks?

Seriously? Where the laughing emoji showing that you’re joking? “deconstructed and have to rebuild whole philosophy and set up” From the chairman’s statement today "It's no secret that we have got a strategy in place that we will continue to build upon our model, using the same principles, as we enter this new campaign. "Managers leaving a club can be a hard pill to swallow, and whilst we appreciate Jens for what he has done here in the last 11 months, we have been continually working on contingencies and learnings to ensure we do not rip up and start again but continue to build and grow. "There's lots to be excited about. "We have over 20 contracted first-team players, European football on the horizon and crowds are 40% up at Fir Park. "We will continue working hard behind the scenes and will update supporters in due course. This is the start of a journey, not the end."

Toulouse, that’s a bit of lautrec for anyone wanting to go see his new team play.

To be fair we knew when he joined that he didn’t have a good record of staying long at any of his previous clubs so it’s not a huge surprise but having watched his recent interviews post match and his chat to the players I did think that he might want to prove himself in Europe before moving on from us.

Know what you mean, still gives me the fear thinking about him but with this board I’d be happy to take the chance if they decide on Max.

In talks with Zander McAllister, hopefully he’ll sign as I think there’s a player there, didn’t look out of place in his appearances this season.

It is that easy, the away club issues the tickets to the away supporters, checking their buying history ie season ticket holders or buying multiple times for home games. No history no ticket. Rule for invasion can be more than 10 supporters, taking away to odd idiot who runs on and is usually grabbed by the police or stewards anyway.

To be fair I’ve the same problem at times and always check their shirt number

Has VAR checked it’s ok for him to leave?

From what I can see here is the money available per round if eliminated Q2 - €175k + €350k (£450k) Q3 - €175k + €550k (£630k) playoffs - €175k + €750k (£800k) If we reach the promised land League phase qualification €3.17m (£2.7m) then €400k (£350k) per won match €200k (£175k) per drawn match For an example Hearts made £4.96m in 24/25 season from this competition and the payments are the same. This year 1st in the SPFL league gets £4.58m. (Yes I can’t bring myself to say winners )

If Ward goes then I’d expect another keeper as No1 with Matty staying as backup for another season but getting cup games. I do trust him but think at about 22 years old he would benefit from one more year as being backup. Defensively SOD & McGinn have been solid this year but age is against them so realistically replacements need to be sourced, although I think we have a couple of good options in the academy who might step up next season IF we make the group stage in Europe but aren’t ready for first team football week in week out. With Slattery leaving and probably one other midfielder being sold, I don’t think we can afford to lose another as it would decimate the the team with too many new midfielders coming in and trying to learn our system and new teammates while we try to get to the Conf. League group stage - there might be some sort of agreement that if we don’t qualify then another will be sold but who knows. Again we have a couple of options from the academy lads who played bit part roles this season and didn’t look out of place who should step up and get more game time next season to see if they will make it. Up front is where we need to be looking at urgently as with the amount of possession we’ve had this season the goal return is - in my opinion - lower than we should expect. This is not a criticism of the team but just my view as on the whole they’ve been terrific in their play and although I’m a fan of Maswanise he’s a bit hot and cold with a selfish attitude and not really a team player at times so I’d cash in while his stock is high and hope for an upgrade. Again I’d say that there are academy lads who can hopefully step up and play a part but it would be unfair to throw them in as mainstays. In all positions there’s also the possibility of loan deals but I think the club would prefer to sign our own players first and use loans if our signing targets fall through. Having said all that I’m sure the club have great plans for next season and I’m happy to wait and see. Relaxing summer for us all (hopefully)

If the photos are real or fake makes no difference as they weren’t viewed by VAR or the referee at the time they made their decision to award the penalty looking at a grainy, unclear image which did not show conclusively that an error had occurred so anyone using them to justify the decision is just talking shite.
