    With Main scoring in this game means that 3 ex Dons players have scored against us this season so far. Anderson, May and Main...

    Has he actually been credited with the goal? Because he sure as shit never touched it 😂

     

    In any case, all 3 goals you mention were fucking pathetic, Anderson's in particular, how Lewis managed to let that happen I'll never know, same applies to St Mirren's 3rd there, as for May's, could have been stopped long before it reached goal, but Lewis again, could have dealt with it so much better. Was more on a tired Ramsay and Gallagher defending like he plays Pub league that one though.

    Lewis was poor today and is not playing as well as he has for us but even at that level he is a far better keeper than Woods. Abysmal keeper who was signed as a cheap bench filler for injuries nothing more. No way he should be considered. Tom Ritchie supposedly looked good in the challenge cup games (saved a couple of penalties) but he was loaned to Huntly yesterday. Think we are going to have to stick with Lewis. 

     

    But Woods looked capable enough in his game time last season, he looked far more assured and reliable than Lewis, granted Lewis was excellent in his first 2 Seasons, but he's fast becoming a horror show, and he's been leading up to it too, not like it's been a one game thing, he's been rank rotten for Months now, he seems to be completely devoid of confidence, he should absolutely be our 1st Choice, but he's playing poorly and directly costing us goals with some dumfounding goalkeeping, I think he's very much in need of some time on the bench, a kick up the arse so to speak. 

  3. Kind of stayed away from here, trying to give Glass time and see where we are, the guy says all the right things and I think we can all agree there's a bit more purpose about how we try to play now, but ultimately it's not working, there are many reasons for it. 

     

    First and foremost, Joe Lewis needs dropped, that's a simple one to start off with, guys as good as a goal down these days. 

     

    It gets more debatable probably here after, for me, cannot for the life of me see what Scott Brown brings to this team, very much in the same vein as Lewis Ferguson, no secret I have never rated the boy, but Brown and Ferguson together is not productive. Calvin Ramsay will definitely go on to bigger things, he's a proper prospect, but he still has so much to learn defensively, MacKenzie I've no real issues with, for me, McCrorie replaces Brown in the middle of the park, McGeouch replaces Ferguson, and whilst he's clearly not started brightly, Gallagher and Bates should be Central Defense, Ramsay and MacKenzie the full backs and Woods in Goal. 

     

    I'd have Samuels and Hedges as close to Ramirez as possible too, Ramirez is pretty poor all round in my opinion, but he's predatory and will score with the supply, but he spends far too much energy and time chasing lost causes, looked like he could link up well, but that was one game really and that was with Emmanuel-Thomas right next to him. 

     

    It's been a pretty abysmal run of results, some good play and less aimless hoofball aside, it's not good enough. I'd have no issue in keeping Brown as a bit part Player and coach, I'd sell Lewis Ferguson to the highest bidder, McGeouch may not be a goal threat, but he is box to box and rarely loses possession, always gets about the pitch and looks for the ball, leave that to the likes of Longstaff, Hedges, Samuels etc...

    I appreciate that looks a bag of shit, but you get the idea. I just think we're being held back by poor individuals, and have been even under McInnes, although he never helped himself with poor selections and personnel for a long period of time, the same will happen to Glass if he doesn't shake it up. Sorry for the rant, appreciate constructive criticism as of course there will be many disagreements and hope everyone is well and safe.

  4. Seems fairly obvious Matty Kennedy will be moving to pastures new. I have a feeling we're waiting to see if we qualify for the Group Stages of this Conference League then offering roughly £300k-£500k PLUS Kennedy for McGrath at St Mirren, Goodwin speaking publicly today about Kennedy as well. 

  5. After going 2 up, we seemed to stop playing and it was only a matter of time before they got back into it. Thankfully Glass was bold enough to make the changes and it worked, never felt threatened at any point in the 2nd Half. But those goals we conceded were amateur as fuck and a genuine concern. We need another CB and we need to start Gallagher from the beginning from here on. Perhaps harsh on McCrorie ( If that's who is replaced ) but he's a midfielder, that's the reality, he was solid in the 1st Leg against Hacken, but he was pish and a liability in the 2nd Leg and last night, their 1st Goal was rather comical and simply doesn't happen if Gallagher was on, would have been dealt with before it bounced. 

     

    Anyway, seems like we will be fine in the final 3rd, obvious defensive concerns, but surely they'll see that and work on rectifying it? 

     

     

  6. I know the bottom line of Friendlies is to get match fit and work on shape and stuff like that, but I always find it disappointing not to win, again, I know there purpose is a factor of different things, but winning breeds confidence, no matter the game, just my opinion. 

     

    Finally back into the action though and the competitive games cannot come quick enough, pretty buzzed for this Season ( Despite a shite draw against ICT ?

  7. The Club are really milking this Ramirez signing, and when I say that, I mean they are acting, on Social Media anyway, that he's some sort of messiah ( Or Superman ? ) I just pray that it does not backfire and he becomes a Dud. 

     

    I am definitely going into this Season with confidence, the more time Glass, Russell & Apaloo get to work with them, the better. Perhaps I have just given up with McInnes' eye bleeding negative shite for the last 3 years that anything new was bound to excite me, but I truly believe we're going to be a good team this Season, a team that surprise a good few people. 

     

    Either that or we'll be mid-table shite and out of both cups early. ( The saving grace there is that Glass is only on a 12 month rolling contract ) 

     

    Come on you Fucking Reds!

    What circus? The only negative noise I hear is from our own fans not giving glass and the new signings the benefit of the doubt. It’s our own doing.

    Completely agree. I am actually looking forward to this Season. I was extremely against Glass getting the job, but he's here, he's saying all the right things and I have definitely seen a difference in how we approach games and actually played in those games, the more time he's had to work with them, Russell too, Apaloo and Brown coming in, then it can only get better. Hopefully with another 2 additions ( Ramirez & another Striker ) then we'll at the very least, improve on what McInnes did, in what will be a far more difficult League. 

     

    I'm expecting big things for us, seriously, and to think only 3 months ago I was apoplectic with the fact Glass got the job. 

  9. Not much to go on, granted, but his use of the ball seems intelligent. Sturdy wee guy, reckon he'll be fine. It's only a year, McCrorie more than likely the preference at RB/RWB ( Squad number 2 ) so will see how it develops. 

     

     

  10. Inside Number 9, Reece Shearsmith and Steve Pemberton are incredible writers when you think about everything they have done. 

     

    Inside Number 9

    League Of Gentlemen

    Psychoville ( Their best by some margin, yet not known as much as the other 2 ) 

     

    Also watching a Documentary about Satanic Cults called Fall River, resulted in at least 3 young women getting murdered, decapitated, raped etc... fucking horrific stuff and abysmal that these creatures are allowed to breathe still. Although, I'd advise you stay clear of stuff like that, I have watched a fair amount of Documentaries about Satanic Cults and for the love of fuck, it absolutely messes you up. Genuinely can't understand why I still watch them. 

  11. First day of training done. 

     

    I was really against this in the beginning, but having heard him speak and with the words he's saying, it's words I was keen to hear. Alongside Russell, who must have something about him, then I am completely for it now. 

     

    I don't actually think it'll be an instant success, I reckon we'll know a lot more about Glass come next Summer. I think that's ample time to get your ideas across and implemented into the team. 12 Month rolling contract was also a good shout from Cormack. 

     

    Come on Stephen, I sincerely hope it all works out.

    How tall are you and how high is your shed? Are you going to have enough space to get a power cage in and press a barbell and weights above your head?

    Yes mate, we had a little muck about inside and we managed to fit his Weight Bench in, as well as his free standing dummy and a exercise bike, we've since stored it in my normal Hut until we can sort this flooring out. 

     

    @Elgindon @RicoS321 @tom_widdows 

     

    My better halves Uncle is quite Handy, he reckons we could fit some wooden framing inside and drill some wood onto that, about 5" off the slabs and seal along the edges with Visqueen ( Not entirely sure what that is ) he also said insulation probably won't be necessary. I'm not clued up on if that is possible but he's willing to help so will see what happens. 

  13. Shit, a lot more work than I thought. But makes complete sense when you explain it like that. 

     

    I think the best bet is definitely taking it apart and fixing the base, would probably be the more logical thing to do. Much appreciated Tom & Rico.  

  14. I have a 10ft x 10ft metal shed in my Garden, it's empty, but my Brother gave me a good idea about putting a weight bench and other fitness stuff in it for us to use, but it has no floor, it's sitting on top of Slabs and when it's raining, it gets rather soaked inside, as far as I can tell after weeks of trying to figure it out, it's coming from the ground ( The wetness I mean ) it seems pretty tight other than that. 

     

    What is the easiest and cheapest way to floor it to keep out the rain? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. We will get it insulated and put wood up for the walls of the shed, my old man will wire in some electric for us to have a light etc... it's just the floor we've hit a wall with. 

     

     

  15. Stephen Glass it is then. 

     

    Would not have been in my top 5 choices, but I am not the person who gets to decide. 

     

    Initially thought it was very underwhelming and disappointing, Cormack's puppet if you will, but having listened to both interviews ( Glass & Cormack ) and hearing words like " Mentality " and " Driven " and statements like " Trophies in the Cabinet " then there's no denying that they at the very least, talk a good game & want what we want.
