  1. KVV started ok in Holland, his team were shipping as many goals as us though so they hit a crisis solely based on their shite defence. Just from following the coverage on Twitter it's pretty obvious his mental health problems flared up after moving back to his home country. He originally left Holland because of his mental health so it may have been difficult to go back. If we can get him back here where he seems to enjoy his football he will perform for us.
  2. Gent is doing well. Montgomery isn't any better from what I've seen. Kettlewell is going to get us relegated.
  3. The guy's attitude has been terrible from the start. He looked fit at the beginning of the season then obviously pissed up the wall as soon as the international breaks came round. Hopefully he has better luck elsewhere and we should help him rehab but he can't be registered as a player here next season.
  4. If this is actually possible the Society board should be getting ahead of it and not waiting for the club board to set any terms and any negotiations with interested parties should be directly with the Society. The club has been dishonest with the Society in the past and that was probably down to Boyle and Dempster but Weir, McMahon and Dickie were all in the room when Dempster was lying through her teeth and none of them piped up so I don't think they can be relied upon to represent the society members even although they obviously do a good job for the club.
  5. I'm not watching these 30 minutes interviews but does McMahon say that we had an offer to buy the club? Should the Well Society members not be hearing about this and laying out some ground rules about how this kind of approach is dealt with? As far as the video goes I don't like it but I'm willing to accept that we're overwhelmingly a bunch of miserable bastards and it isn't aimed at us.
  6. Oakley is a decent finisher and is worth taking a chance on. Ruari Paton at Queen's Park and Bruce Anderson from Livi are both decent players we should be taking a look at. We need a right back in this window so I'd be asking Rangers about Adam Devine on loan. He's been solid when he's appeared in their first team and for Scotland u21s.
  7. We are obviously trying to get Elon Musk to buy us.
  8. Wrexham had similar sized crowds to us until Hollywood actors got involved.
  9. The on field targets are all things we have done in the past 10 years. They are feasible. Expanding the support and finding an investor are pipe dreams. Even when Les came on board it didn't amount to anything and letting him chose Barraclough took us as close to relegation as we have been in 40 years other than when Boyle put us into admin. There's a pattern there....
  10. Cup runs, transfer fees, top six, league prize money and Europe all put extra cash into the club. They are also far more realistic than increasing the support by a significant amount or finding sponsors or investors.
  11. I don't think we are in financial bother. There are only two ways for us to make more money either do better on the park or find a rich idiot. The board can't do anything to make us better on the park. That's down to Kettlewell, Daws and Clarkson. The board obviously don't want to do nothing so they are looking for the rich idiot.
  12. I can only watch 10 seconds at a time. They are trying to hook some dumb American with millions to burn. They might as well buy lottery tickets it's fucking idiotic.
  13. I agree. I have no doubt we would be criticised for withdrawing but the easy solution to that is to ask them to put their hands in their own pockets if it's so important.
  14. Agreed. It was pretty obvious that the media people were using it as a stepping stone to bigger jobs and building up a portfolio CV at the club's expense. There's no way we needed that level of video production. I haven't watched the interview but by the sounds of it he didn't mention the women's team this time. I still think we need a break down of spending on that and whether or not there is any possibility of it operating at break even in the medium term. If there's not then a discussion needs to be had.
  15. Main is a far better option than Obika.
  16. Craggs was at Fir Park well after Dempster left the club. Stevie Kirk had some sort of fallout when he got involved with Albion Rovers if my memory isn't playing tricks.
  17. If he goes to Hibs it's because the football we have been playing is so bad that it's actually hindering his development. There have been games where he gets 1 or 2 passes into feet per half and Arsenal will have someone analysing those games.
  18. Biereth trained with the Arsenal first team today. We are fucked if he leaves.
  19. Bevis cleared everything yesterday and was unlucky with the deflection at the end. We went to absolute shit when he was dropped for Butcher and Kettlewell's anti football style means we need someone at the back who can make blocks and defend the 6 yard line.
  20. Wilkinson is definitely away. Spencer and Shaw strongly rumoured to be leaving.
  21. He obviously played a part but I'd say mainly through enthusiasm and positivity which only goes so far. The tactics were as basic as they are now.
  22. Who was it? Gent was superb he just tired at the end due to his effort.
  23. Soare, Spencer, Wilkinson and possibly Shaw are away which should free up some money.
