Yes we did, from a member of the scouting team - we wanted them, but couldn't match the terms. I doubt we offer what we think a player might be worth, more what we can afford - and your right - nowhere near the same thing. Agree 100% with the rest of your post.

Compete with Dundee - FFS we can't even compete with the Falkirk's of this world - time to retire the X-Box and Football Manager, if you think that's the pond we fish in. We lost out on 2 targets last year - El Bakhtaoui and the big striker from East Fife who gave us a torrid time in the League Cup, to Dundee and Falkirk - because we couldn't match their terms - FALKIRK FFS. Our days of competing for decent players in home waters are long gone. And as much as I enjoy watching the U20 highlights I see little to suggest that there is a McCarthy, McArthur, or similar about to burst through - and please don't 'raise me' Cadden - the one-trick pony, yet another from the long line of Shaun Fagan, Marc Fitzpatrick production line. Our club is festering to a slow painful death and it saddens me to watch it. The players and fans just seemed resigned to our fate and it was awful to watch and be a part of. Anyway rant over and no offence meant to you by the post - just needed to vent.

Nah much earlier than that !!!!

Oh for the simpler times when none of us were particularly politically aware and went to the football to erm......................................support the club and watch the game. Leave the politics at the East Stand gate lads.

In Blyth's case hopefully it's because the Police have asked him to move his car.

Here we go again. Seriously couldn't keep hens out a close.

Maybe it was just who the opposition was

Marvin playing at Wembley today - go on big man - who'd a thunk it EDIT - At left back too lol

Typical - the aftermath post-mortem, is always more interesting than the actuality.

Suspended

2 games against the Old Firm stick out - early 70's, both had 30K attendances Rangers 2-2 (Colin Stein scored late equaliser - lost replay 4-2) Celtic 3-2 (0-2 comeback Wullie P game) Like Daver said games at that time against the "evil twins" weren't a pleasant experience.

And on a plastic pitch too

Great result and a little bit of luck as well.

Replaced by who.

Where do they pluck those names from - Darren Ferguson, Ian Holloway, both are in good jobs last time I looked. Baffling ??????

He he just saw that

Lol surely a typical BBC cock-up, but it does show he thinks outside the box

Yogi Hughes for me.

Just what I thought - where did he get that stride - bursting up that park like a thoroughbred.

He didn't take over until part way through the season - around November/December time IIRC and we went on a run ending in that 5-3 Rangers reverse. Sure I've commented on this on a previous thread - need to have a look.

RIP Roger.

The first goal

For those of a different era Alex Kennedy - Craigmark Burntonians

Some of the players he brought in were quite adept at playing his system - it was those that were here when he came that couldn't

FFS why do you people continually have to remind us that night - 'scarred for life' I was by the cheating bastards and 'bribery ref' JPR Gordon from Newport-on-Tay
