Superstar Tradesman Posted February 3, 2009 Report Posted February 3, 2009 Our pre-season trips have all been detrimental to our start each season anyway. Not happy about the length of break though. Quote
glasgow sheep Posted February 3, 2009 Report Posted February 3, 2009 “If we don’t get third place or win the Scottish Cup it’s going to be chaos rushing about trying to sort things out. That’s because there is a danger we could have to play the first Euro qualifying games on July 16. “If we make it to the Scottish Cup final it means our last game won’t be until May 30. “It would be impossible to fit in a proper pre-season trip because the players would only be getting about a fortnight off. “It’s a real nightmare because that won’t be enough to allow them to recharge for the new season. “I’m worried it could lead to all sorts of injury problems in the following campaign. “There is no way you can expect players to recover from a year of playing top-class football in just two weeks.†Better get third or win the cup then Unrealistic ASC Quote
BobbyBiscuit Posted February 3, 2009 Report Posted February 3, 2009 I’m worried it could lead to all sorts of injury problems in the following campaign Even more so than usual? Perhaps an early start in the UEFA Cup will help us get out the traps quickly in the SPL, which would make a nice change. Quote
TENEMENTFUNSTER Posted February 3, 2009 Report Posted February 3, 2009 There's definitely something Pete Tong with the pre-season, be it the venue, the matches, the training, something isn't working. Quote
boboisared Posted February 3, 2009 Report Posted February 3, 2009 Just as well we're not playing top class football then Quote
Sweetchuck Posted February 3, 2009 Report Posted February 3, 2009 The poor bastard; he won't be able to squeeze in his annual trip to Mercury in order to top up his tan. Is the creosoted JC we know and love/loathe (delete as appropriate) gone for good? Quote
brunstanesheep Posted February 3, 2009 Report Posted February 3, 2009 I would like to think he would have something reserved, on the off chance we dinna make Europe. Quote

Aberdeen_Ladette Posted February 3, 2009 Report Posted February 3, 2009 oh wait, altering yer post doesn't fit in with my "loser mentality" of "accepting mediocrity" Tut tut Jager, JC would accuse you of having too high expectations ... then again he would accuse GS of the same Quote

dave_min Posted February 4, 2009 Report Posted February 4, 2009 This is sad news I'd already decided that we should go to Portugal for pre-season aswell! Oh well, fingers crossed for either Orkney or Shetland (away) instead Quote
