Can't quite believe what I'm reading in the Tele. Is this a Poundland Mourinho attempt at deflecting criticism towards himself and protecting the young players in the squad? Or is it a guy who's not really arsed and is going to spend the next six months hiding behind a squad rebuild (famously we're the only team in Scotland to have this) and a low budget (same) before getting his payoff?

Months ago.

I noticed that on Tuesday. Trying to plan my travel for the next year and the official site was of no help at all.

Brophy is done. For all the failures of our creative players he's still done. Gorman will be the starting 9.

Still in absolute disbelief that Garrity got a new contract tbh.

AMBISHUN

Still, good news about paying a transfer fee for "Keith Bray".

Is any of that capital expenditure for the big-loss clubs? I find it hard (but not impossible) to believe that DAFC spunked one point seven million pounds that they didn't earn on a bunch of jobbers, but did they do a stadium upgrade or maybe some loan payback or something?

I stand corrected. Apologies to the 'Lers (sub: check nickname)

Allegedly "The Civs" (sub: check nickname) only had four players signed and ready.

I assumed it was about the legal case. But I don't know.

Is it? We had one of the longest-serving first team managers in the country, we now have several of the squad renewed, the previous GM was here for quite a while.

Am I right in saying that Shug had a spotty injury record before he got here? At our end of the market something has to give, be it injury record, ability, age, whatever. I'm personally happy with this and hoping for the best.

Depends. if the lack of progress is due to one side 'ghosting' it and it dying on the vine, I'd want us to withdraw sooner rather than later so that we can start thinking in other directions. If the lack of progress is purely on the outside and there are in fact things moving behind the scenes, and the end outcome will be what we have voted for (a portion of the club's equity sold for 750k and integration with Estrella platform and staff) then I'd be fine waiting months if we had to.

For a shanner of a team like Stranraer set tickets for a fiver.
