Mr.Blue

Was only a one year deal so assuming he chose to leave?

Not sure he's ready for Premier League football yet. I was thinking maybe a move to the likes of St. Johnstone, Ross County or Ayr. Dunfermline or Raith have a bit of money as well so wouldn't be surprised to see him pop up there.

You're got us Mr. Laird. Well done.

Finally an update!!! Not surprised that Lyall is away. He's a good player but still young and lots to learn. Id rather have Shug stay than him tbh. Also confident that Dougie will bring in suitable replacements for Baird and Boyes. Id be happy to see Keay, Murdoch, Mullen , Crawford , Gillespie and Wilson re-sign. Adeloye Im unsure and Shaw can leave. Core of a decent team there and with the right signings we could be in for an interesting season.

Cool story. True or not you're still an absolute weapon.

That's a bit of a cunt that. Thought they were skint.....

I did this last year too which was a bit of a ball ache. I originally wanted to sign my son up as a member and make a payment in his name but couldn't as he is under 16. I ended up just upping my own payment instead. Could potentially put people off putting more money into the the club which is madness. I assume the under 16 barrier is a legal thing. Could they have some sort of MCT junior membership to get around this? Re the suggestions and no acknowledgement. It's disappointing. Don't expect every suggestion to be taken on board but being a community owned club we need to tap into these resources and be creative. Suppose again that's where having the MCT members, board and club board to go through to get anything considered and approved is a hurdle.

Or have a chat with the kid and convince him that he's better off staying here IF he is going to be in and around the first team. Put a release clause in his contract and sell on percentage as well? Hopefully make a few quid more.

Sam Graham released by Airdrie. Big strong no nonsense center half. Id take him as a replacement for Baird.

General consensus here is that most are feeling more reassured with Dalrada's role and motivations in supporting the club. John Laird being on the board and having any type of say or control seems to be a sticking point and he didn't do himself any favours with his arrogance and arsey approach.

It's a chore on here because of some of the pish you're spouting! Be more specific next time. Its a public messageboard where folk will question you.

Id like to think a couple more of the 18s squad could be brought in but I know it's not as simple as that and Dougie isn't one for throwing boys in at the deep end.

Apologies. I thought he was a center back. And half time .

So currently we have: GK's - Woods and Murdoch? Defenders - Delaney, Corr, Ballantyne. Midfielders - Blues. Forwards - Davies, Moffat, Garrity and Keay? Question marks beside Murdoch and Keay and unsure if they are contracted or not. Would like to see Mullen, Wilson and Crawford/lyall offered new deals. Davies hopefully moves on as it's best for both parties. That would leave us needing at least.... 2 x CB (ideally one that can cover at LB). 2 x CM (I'm counting Moffat and Garrity as forwards). 1 x winger. 2 strikers (one that could also play on the wing). To push on and I'd like to see us sign one of Lyall or Crawford as they are similar players imo. Only if there's better out there like a grimshaw type player. Rumours of Connolly coming to us a while back who is a winger from Raith. Mason Hancock from Airdrie has also been mentioned who is a centre back. Id also be looking at the QP and Hamilton to see if we could pick up their strongest players that have been released. If Imrie is going to continue with playing out from the back then I imagine he'd be looking at Airdrie's squad and who is out of contract as well. Is there anyone else from the youth set up that could perhaps be integrated into the squad?

Stuart Duncan in attendance today at the kit launch. He's been quiet on here.

Home A and Away B for me.

I think so?

I quite like them. Wasn't sure about the home kit having blue shorts and socks but it looks ok in the flesh. The red kit is a bit different.

We're not falling for it Brian. Nice try.

Nope see a few signings over the next week or so. We can't let this concert go on much longer. Already lost our 2 first choice centre backs.

Yawn.

Stuart Duncan talking shite on social media. I'm shocked.

Thought he had a two year deal? Delighted if I'm wrong. Good guy but nowhere near the level required

No I spoke to him about it at the sponsors night. It was definitely Gillespie. He could change his mind though. Id much rather keep Davies than Lamar.

Another one bites the dust. Fuck off back under the rock you slithered out from.
