  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. We are obviously trying to get Elon Musk to buy us.
  4. Wrexham had similar sized crowds to us until Hollywood actors got involved.
  5. 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....
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. Main is a far better option than Obika.
  12. 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.
  13. 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.
  14. Biereth trained with the Arsenal first team today. We are fucked if he leaves.
  15. 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.
  16. Wilkinson is definitely away. Spencer and Shaw strongly rumoured to be leaving.
  17. 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.
  18. Who was it? Gent was superb he just tired at the end due to his effort.
  19. Soare, Spencer, Wilkinson and possibly Shaw are away which should free up some money.
  20. I think we can get him back. He's burnt his bridges in Holland. He's not rated in England. Hearts probably won't sell Shankland because of the European money. Burrows is too smart to sign ex Motherwell players for Aberdeen and put pressure on himself. Where else can he go?
  21. We would. It's much easier to play when you have a lead and we have spent the majority of the season chasing games. Van Veen created a lot as well as scoring which would help us as well.
  22. The entire squad chucked it because Hammell and Kerr had zero management skills. He still scored 12 goals for Hammell. KVV is the 4th top scorer in the league for the whole of 2023 despite leaving in the summer. 17 goals this year.
  23. He scored in near enough every game. We had other strong performers but without KVV's goals and all round play we would have been down.
