I'll second Juan on that one! Cracking idea.

Aye but does he prefer that to Buckie?

You ask him any probing questions?

Klimpl OR Hughes? Burst budget up there as well eh? Excellent!

Great first post fella. Cheers for that!!

Wellgirl, where does it say it WILL be reinvested? If I were chairman of a club and we just rather abruptly sold off arguably our best and most popular player, I DEFINATLEY would state my full intention for the cash gained IF it was to be reinvested. You know to inform fans, keep them hopeful, not dent season ticket sales etc.

As I said in another thread all the best Clarky!!

Milo is speaking a LOT of sense there. If any teams in the SPL should be selling off players it should be Killie, Hearts, and Accies, probably in that order. St. Mirren and Celtic are in great positions and Rangers although in worrying debt (for their fans only right enough) have the CL cash to plaster those cracks. Outside of those three I considered ourselves to be one of the most financially secure in the SPL. I am starting to question that. Edit: Stuart you say our wages are 73% of our turnover. Can you remember how that was against similar teams like Accies, Falkirk, Killie etc?

I hope so but the article doesn't fill you with confidence.

What time was the press conference?

The fact official piece says we had to sell due to current economic factors speaks volumes. I don't see ANY of this being reinvested in the team.

The Sun article makes for good reading........but that rag should be treated with contempt whether good or bad news this morning. Press Conference this morning? Hmmmmm.

After reading the article it would appear it is a TRIAL....and Cardiff are looking for a central defender so doubt they will sign Maros. I'd rather he was with Cardiff than Aberdeen though.

Bloody hell! This is getting a tad annoying. Although ON LOAN from where? Isn't he a free agent?

I didn't. How much?

Thought it would have been more than that. Maybe they are saving their cash for Albania

No way!!

Guys, out of interest as I haven't seen this asked or even any mention of it, how many fans are you bringing to Airdrie? Rough estimate.

If you can be Player-manager I'm sure you can be Asst. Manager-captain. As Assistant he would be a leader on the park anyway so makes no difference. If he isn't then Gannon selects somebody else to be Captain. No drama. Sadly, I'm an old school romantic and being Captain is a big thing to me. In the reality of pro football.....I'm not sure it is. Look how our armband was getting tossed about last year. Craigan, Hughes, Lasley, Quinn.....and it didn't 'sort out' Quinn did it.

I can see the might of Bristol coming down on your nut any minute now weeyin!!!

I'm not sure what is up with the 'cheap option'. Who knows the Scottish game better in the FP dressing room than Crags? Who knows the players better? If he can stay professional and objective about his own performances then for me it is an ideal appointment.

I'd be pretty surprised if someone from the shop didn't make comment in this thread offering exchanges by midday tomorrow. They ARE pretty good that way. However, I'm still a bit peeved there has been no mention of who won the two season tickets, £100 worth of Canterbury gear, and signed and framed Pro-Well Shirt by preordering their replica jersey. As a Well fan I would like to be updated about these things as I'm sure it influenced a lot of people in going for the preorder. I understand there are MUCH bigger things going on at FP at the mo, but considering the thought and time that went in to promoting the strip BEFORE it came out it is all silence now the money is in.

4 a side, any man saves!!!

Imo it is time for Saunders and Hutchison to be given serious consideration for the first team. Starting this Thursday.

Snap!
