  1. Jim McIntyre and Tom Wright now being quoted for Tannadice also - the usual media speculation. Interestingly sources on Tayside are saying they'll just appoint who they want as money is no object (to an extent) - the kind of compensation St Johnstone and Ross County would be looking for is chickfeed to them.

    Would Billy Dodds not be a stumbling block to McIntyre returning to United? Was he not there before and left under a cloud?

  2. After last night I hope Accies free fall continues and they end up in the bottom 6!

    I'd fancy our chances for 3 points against them more than I would against Dundee or St Johnstone.

    ^^+1

    Just beat me to it

    Got to agree LD. Really like what I hear from Baraclough so far. Especially the youth aspect and hard work.

     

    This might seem a silly point but he looks fit and healthy and looks like he takes care of himself. Someone like that can have high standards of fitness that rubs off on the players.

     

    Got to echo these thoughts as well. It's also refreshing to hear positive comments from a manager too. I liked McCall but a flaw in his manner was his, at times, negative outlook in certain games. Hopefully this positive attitude also rubs off on the players.

  4. Seem to recall a deal at Airdrie/ Livingston a few years ago now involving Stevie Archibald & loads of Spanish players. He made his money showcasing talent & selling them on - a winger to Dundee Utd then Celtic (Fernandez?) & the keeper who ended up at Celtic (Sanchez?). It has been done but not how I want my club run, thanks very much

  5. Didn't realise goals only counted when the opposition has it's strongest XI out. By the way that 'weakened' Partick team had one player in it that wasn't getting a game in the league - Marc Kerr.

     

     

     

    3 goals in 9 starts is piss poor?

     

    If so what was McFadden's 4 goals in 21 starts then?

     

    I suppose they're too different kinds of players - I'm not sure Faddy would be classed as an out-&-out centre forward, while Goodwillie isn't exactly the creative type.

     

    Would I swap Sutton of last year or Higgy of 2 years back with Goodwillie of the same periods? No chance but Goodwillie from the early days was certainly a talent. As mentioned before, yet another waster of his talent

  6. Wouldnt mind something along the lines of FC Lorient that macron have on their site

     

    The away strip would be fine by me. The band on the home strip was white & black, so not sure what we would have, claret & white on an amber strip?

  7. I think we should sign the rest of the boys from One Direction. Doncaster Rovers must be loving the amount of money they're raking in for reserve games.

     

    Sidney mentioned this on 'Off the Ball' yesterday, but did I not see something about the monies going to a children's hospice/ hospital or similar?

    Ramsden has been a very good signing. A real steady eddie in a couple of positions.

     

    Carswell has been up and down but he's certainly a trier. I got into trouble for my opinion on Steve Jennings a while back but I think Carswell is similar in that he's not a creative player and isn't likely to excite too many scouts or journalists with his technique or vision so he's never going to get the same attention as a Gauld or Mackay-Steven.

     

    However ever team needs a player like that in midfield so I don't mean to denigrate him in anyway when I say that.

     

    As a regular at the top end of the SPFL I think Carswell should have been called up by the U21's especially when players are in that squad that aren't even close to first team football but at the end of the day it's up to Billy Stark to pick what he thinks is the best team.

     

    You mean like a Paul Lambert or ,and I'm not in anyway comparing them, a Makalele (sp!)
