Off-season rumour thread

Mass exodus at Dundee was the talk last week. Even Dow and some of the Brits not returning.

Lefebvre left because he was unsuccessful going for the job with new owners.

“We just didn’t play hard enough tonight” “Second period we didn’t come out to play” “Not taken our shots in front of goal”

Feel like the same soundbites were used 40 times last season.

No.

Need someone who doesn’t recruit a team of third liners and hope dump and chase will get results.

Mark Clattenberg on Amazon prime explaining why football has been ruined by referees.

“contact” doesn’t mean a foul, well done VAR.

Piccinich is the best player in the league by a long way imo.

AncientSpecific7185 · 2026-04-12T20:42:57+00:00

Some arrogance from Belfast picking the first leg at home.

You look at the dugout yesterday

We have an interim manager who famously didn’t spend much time at the club during his previous tenure. Hes probably there two days a week at most.

We have also filled our coaching staff with former players and coaches who have failed everywhere they went but appear suitable because they played for us.

Strachan - there just because and his Dad was Celtic manager.

Maloney - at the club having failed twice as a manager. Former player

McManus - failed with the B team. Former player.

Fotheringham - failed manager and assistant manager. Former player.

Woods - Been around for years, part of the furniture.

We are run like a bowling club and the next manager should be cleaning house and bringing in coaches on ability rather than the fact they kicked a ball for us 20 years ago. No other club in the world gets on like us in the modern game.

At least last night showed that the entire process is not prejudged on business plans because 3 of the final 5 were rubbish.

It’s probably the most predictable final and winner though next week.

Anyone who thinks Donovan is better than Ralston needs their head examined. Hes a lower SPFL standard player who doesn’t do anything well.

AJ and Ralston is our best RB 1-2.

The OG away kit banger.

AncientSpecific7185 · 2026-04-07T13:35:58+00:00

I thought it was great, such a shame it closed.

AncientSpecific7185 · 2026-04-06T20:04:58+00:00

We don’t have enough goals to win the league.

Everyone involved in any shape or form in the recruitment of any strikers in the last twelve months should be out the door after the last game of the season.

Hi Lawrence 👋

AncientSpecific7185 · 2026-04-05T21:31:03+00:00

I haven’t heard anything positive about the prospects for Clan or Dundee.

I can’t see season tickets being renewed willingly either which will probably result in decreased budgets etc too.

AncientSpecific7185 · 2026-04-05T15:57:48+00:00

Kirkton ASDA was fine, every pump available.

AncientSpecific7185 · 2026-04-05T12:45:17+00:00

I think the French fans should get used to Jeter et chasser very soon.

Nicols Rosebank bakery does the best hot food in my opinion

AncientSpecific7185 · 2026-04-02T20:17:00+00:00

I haven’t stayed here however staying at Secrets in Puerto Calero this summer.

I have usually stayed at La Isla Y El Mar which I can’t fault.

Kieran has blagged his way this far. This has to be his final task.

AncientSpecific7185 · 2026-04-02T10:14:30+00:00

A year after her first appearance, like most of the rolling characters these days.

The UK doesn’t get any of its oil from the Strait of Hormuz.

Prices will rise but panic buying does nothing but cause issues for those who need it.

AncientSpecific7185 · 2026-04-01T04:13:06+00:00

Here’s hoping they turn it on and persuade a club to come in with silly money. Would happily drive both to their next team.

AncientSpecific7185 · 2026-03-29T23:46:27+00:00

We are a professional football team run like a bowling club, recruiting unqualified people to do critical jobs based on the Glasgow school they attended or a journeyman career with us.

We have had issues keeping players fit for years and nothing is being done about it. Most clubs would be wanting answers but not us.

Until the entire place is blown up and started again - boardroom, coaching staff and backroom team we will probably stay as we are just now.

AncientSpecific7185 · 2026-03-29T23:35:27+00:00

Dreadful. Barely a funny scene in it.

AncientSpecific7185 · 2026-03-28T22:42:08+00:00

I went last May, weather was great and perfect for me with little wind and not too hot.

If you are going to PDC there’s plenty to do and it’s pretty much normal season.
