  1. I get we're just talking about the players we have but you have to remember our budget is going to change, we don't know who else is available, we don't know who Murray has a good relationship and might be able to tempt here... There's obviously some players for us who are very good at this level and who all else being equal you'd want to keep, but all else isn't equal. What if we re-sign a guy like Longridge now, then in a month's time someone better gets released and Murray otherwise has a chance of signing him? I used to believe it was important to get the nucleus of the squad signed up early but I'm less and less convinced of that now. At our level of football the raw materials will matter more. Lopata-White probably met the others for the first time shortly before his debut and he looked the part from the outset. Plenty of other opportunities like that are going to present themselves. For me there's no room for sentiment and as much as I think the likes of Blues are good guys who have served the club extremely well I'm also not going to fall over myself to say they should be renewed before May.
  2. Keep Garrity, we'll need players trained at the club to fill the Champions League squad quota under Estrella.
  3. Can't see Brown lasting much longer at big-spending Ayr, given their big spending and poor results.
  4. Maybe it'll be an Alan Power situation and the manager will decide the player's just run out of steam, but Gillespie is pretty much ever present under Murray. He clearly rates him.
  5. Big-spending Raith 3-1 up against minnows Airdrie now. Probably good for us for minnows Airdrie to be cut adrift. Could do with a late winner for Neil Lennon's shock troops Dunfermline at big-spending strugglers Ross County too tbh.
  6. Amazing what can happen with 11 men.
  7. I voted yes on both and so did everyone I spoke to. Tbh we haven't had a lot of close votes in MCT, they've pretty much been all or nothing.
  8. Votes passed by 95% and 93% or so, so now the due diligence and exclusivity can begin.
  9. Q1 didn't say should we sell to Estrella. It said should we sell shares while still maintaining a clear majority. If the answer to that is "no" then Estrella and everyone else is out of the picture.
  10. I don't think we should be throwing good money after bad. We have a squad of sufficient size and an experienced manager. I think he has the resources to keep us free from the drop, which should be the aim for the rest of the season. Then rebuild for the next one.
  11. Main is gash. I understand why Murray rolled the dice on something of a known quantity but he's absolutely fucking mung. Send him back to the Little People.
  12. Nantes is a bin. Bordeaux on the other hand is paradise. But Cascais is allegedly stunning too. Play it in Greenock and give everyone something to cry about.
  13. Fair, I misunderstood.
  14. Some people are just determined to sell poor wee Morton short. EFG clearly feel that they have a product and an execution plan that's going to help clubs achieve success. If they can do that with a Scottish Championship club that gives them credibility and they can find more favorable terms to roll it out elsewhere. Of course there's no guarantee their system works, but they clearly believe it will.
  15. That's fair. They believe they're coming in with the kind of insight and professionalism that will advance the club, but that's not a guarantee.
