They have just released £500k of new shares
Yes…..I posted the filing but we don’t know what for exactly……could be to cover losses or the give them a financial buffer as we said when we got our £500k.
the fact is we outbid them for a player they had.

Or maybe it’s because Raith we’re only offering him a 6 month contract and we offered 18 months.
Or maybe they don’t have as much money as everyone wanted to believe.

Yup, a solid start to the transfer window. Not sure how many more we can expect, but some interesting names linked so far.
Maybe one or two at the most

Facts only please!
Just joking, it could be that the money is much the same but the extra year swung it. Also he might live nearer us so would be saving money on travel costs. Anyway, happy with the signing and what Doolan is doing in this window.
Indeed ! Shows we can compete for decent players.

Possibly opted for us because Raith only offered a deal to the end of the season
Or given raith said today they were hopeful of keeping him we offered him more money.
-
Trying to work out how we can compete with raith and sign a player from them given they have soo much more cash than us ……maybe that’s one excuse we can put in the bin.
-
Doolan is focussing on the right areas in the window …. Our issue is conceding goals , scoring isn’t the problem.
Strengthening the defensive midfield area and the central defence is absolutely right.

What point are you trying to make javeajag? You're the Jordanhill Jag of the football side. Endless bitching, no solutions.
What am I bitching about exactly ? All I’m doing is not accepting we can’t get promotion this year.

He’s a young guy making his way in the game but at this point he’s not as good as Kevin Holt
I’ll take that as I don’t want to admit he’s been a good recruit

Did Celtic replace Tierney with a better player
Of course they didn’t
So we can never replace any player with one as good or better…..nuts

So Kieran Tierney signs for Arsenal for £50 million do Celtic go out and buy another £50 million player ?
Of course they don’t , similar with Tiff , Doc , Turner and Holt
We couldn’t replace these players with the money we’ve got on offer
Such a poor argument really. Every team lose players every summer. We recruited the same number as raith, they just recruited better but you don’t think neilson is good ?

Because we couldn't afford to replace them like for like or with better. And that's the point you continue to refuse to see.
Where’s you information to support that assertion? I know you spdint have any you just want it to be true, Neilson not good enough then ?

FGS you're wilfully misquoting.

Eh ? We did replace them … just not very well in most cases

How can that be even remotely real, Liverpool could decide if they want to spend £1 million or £100 million on a player
Sure there’s players that Dools would like in his team just now , be that Dom Thomas etc but the cash isn’t there to do these deals , so our Club needs to find another way , loan deals etc
Your Liverpool comparison is absolutely nonsense.
No it isn’t …. The principle operates at different levels in football.

He got sacked because he was taking us nowhere, home defeats against Cove and Hamilton actually cost us the League in my opinion or it would have been automatic promotion .
We will never know.

You have lost it. Or you are confusing me with someone else? I've consistently said I want us to get promoted if at all possible. It's why I go to the games, hoping for the best outcome. By whatever means....
So do I .

No. We sacked McCall because we lost successive home games to the 2 worst sides in the league. I was at both games - I was raging.
Dools just emerged from the equivalent 2 games with maximum points. Gie us peace.
So was I. Do you really believe we sack managers because they lose two games?! Would we have sacked doolan if he had lost the last two games , of course not. Don’t be daft.

You can say that about any sacked manager. For example Wayne Rooney or Steve Cooper may be muttering I would have won the league if.....
It’s a simple fact. We sacked McCall and didn’t get promoted. Which was presumably the point of sacking him.
-
6 minutes ago, dl1971 said:
So your position is you still expect us to get promoted? Just to pin you down, is promotion via the play offs a success? For future reference later in the season.
No reason why we can’t as much as you would hate us to ,

Where does that come from ?
Apart from possibly Livingston, every other team in the SPFL has got a better infrastructure than us and that’s what we’re trying to aspire to .
Therein lies the issue I think we should be in the premier league, you don’t.

The only difference is Liverpool spent 200 million to rebuild their team
Absolutely no difference!
Dear oh dear …. It’s the principle they changed their whole midfield , we lost four players …. It’s the same argument .

Just now, dl1971 said:
Aye. Let's compare us to probably the best two teams in Europe. I think their defenders may be outwith our budget.

Because we offered him an 18 month deal vs a six month deal from raith ….an 18 month deal is more expensive so we outbid them.
