  1. It's not about the amount of money though. There's plenty of people out there supporting families on the National Living Wage. The players point here is that if they get injured doing their job their outgoings don't change but the FA want their wages to be cut to statutory sick pay after 12 weeks. That's obviously unacceptable given the extremely high rate of at work injuries in the football industry and the fact that the clubs obviously don't make any adjustments to job roles to allow people with medical injuries to come back to work. Football can't act like it's a normal business when they are placing demands on their worker's bodies that would be illegal in most jobs.
  2. There's 60 million people living in England so I don't think they should be limited to 92 full time clubs. Looking at the names of teams in the National League you have the likes of Torquay, Gateshead, Yeovil, Barnet, York, Halifax etc.
  3. Park has twice gave the wrong name to the police resulting legal issues for fans. He should be out of a job but we haven't even heard anything about disciplinary proceedings against him nevermind the outcome of that. Funny handshakes all round by the looks of it. Throwing Pyro around and trashing the pub in Kilmarnock is obviously going to attract the attention of the police. Anyone who wants to do stuff like that has to deal with the consequences.
  4. He's went backwards. He's hardly kicked a ball in an important game for 2 years.
  5. We need to get Casey signed up especially with the likes of Robinson and Burrows in the league.
  6. The players have obviously lifted their game and look more enthusiastic but going forward I don't think we are any better and still too reliant on KVV. Defending we are miles better thanks to Casey and Butcher who Hammell brought in. It's been fine margins for Hammell and Kettlewell. Paul McGinn scoring a crazy OG at home to Killie followed by Polworth sticking one in from 30 yards was terrible luck for Hammell. On the other hand Kettlewell has had positive results due to wonder goals from Max Johnston and Slattery. We should have enough about us to stay up now but for next season Kettlewell will need to add a bit extra in attack and demand a lot more from the players than he is letting Obika away with at the moment.
  7. Aye when you see where the covering defender is at the point of the foul it was clearly a last man situation.
  8. Butcher has been great in his current role. It would be nuts to move him unless we were down to the bare bones in midfield.
  9. Aye we will be looking for an upgrade in midfield as the priority in the summer. Does anyone know how long Butcher and Casey are signed for?
  10. We're not really better going forward than we were under Hammell. Butcher and Casey have been the big difference.
  11. Robertson made an arse of the pen. You can see on the replay he wasn't even looking in the right direction when the foul happened. With the red card the defender got back into cover quickly but just a bit too late and VAR cleared it up well.
  12. Obika has missed the target with three great chances. Unless the ball deflects off him he has zero goal threat.
  13. Kev with a bit of quality again. The people that don't rate him are diddies. He's our best player since he joined by a mile. Good running from Dean and Max as well to get up in support. Players with an engine make a big difference.
  14. Miles ahead of you M8. We aren't making the most of the extra man right now. Only KVV is looking for the man in space.
  15. Big Casey is some man. How long is signed for?
  16. Well done to Spittal pulling out a good ball and KVV for producing the goods again.
  17. His fitness is shocking and the reason he gets booked so often. He couldn't even get away from Glasgow polis when he tried.
  18. He gives away possession through misplaced passes, getting tackled, shite shots or offside more any midfielder should. We had a wee spell there inside a minute where pot belly Slattery missed a sitter cause he's too slow, Spittal took a terrible touch and got tackled then Goss lost it because he telegraphed he was going for a world cup pass. Our 'midfield' in a nutshell.
  19. We need to get shot of Spittal asap.
  20. It's been scrappy fare with barely a pass played. We have had two good chances missed by Obika. County had one chance when Kelly flapped at a corner.
  21. Someone needs to tell Furlong he's not a set piece taker.
  22. County getting some joy pushing our wing backs deep with their winger then another player drives into the space. This applause pish during games is beyond a joke now.
  23. That park is a disgrace. It was shite to begin with and they clearly don't look after it properly treating like a five a side venue to milk cash out of. Hopefully the new CEO will have a bit of backbone and be focused on the interest of the club rather than their next move and fight for every club in the league to have a grass park which is interest of our fans and players.
