Good to hear there is interest in Deano - I hope he gets fixed up soon.

Having spent some time in Barrow, he has my sincere sympathy although, having seen him play, Barrow too have my sympathy.

When the Can-Can came on it made me think of Forres Mechanics!

Motherwell have held signing talks with goalkeeper Dean Brill, the 30-year-old who was released by Inverness Caledonian Thistle after a year sidelined by injury. (Daily Record, print edition)

As I understand it, any Scottish teams having to travel to Wales or Ireland will have the cost subsidised by the SPFL. The Challenge Cup was badly in need of a new injection of life and I like what's being tried here. I think we do a disservice to lower league teams by suggesting they couldn't compete with premiership U20's squads....as we know, there's a few who have given full premiership teams a run for their money on many occasions.

Really? That is a pretty sweeping generalisation, what facts are you using to back that potentially defamatory statement up? RCFC prices are pretty good, BOTH clubs are for that matter, but the only £165 ticket RCFC seem to offer is the over65/student ticket in the Jailend ..... On the ICT site it notes disabled prices are in line with the age groups but carers - if required - can have a free ticket. The Ross County site has no reference to disabled prices whatsoever on their pricing page and nothing in the notes so unless you called them I dont know where you got that. These are the FULL prices from both clubs and if you were early enough you could have got 10% off the ICT tickets making them cheaper than County in some instances. Like I said, both clubs are pretty good, certainly far better value for money than most other Premiership sides. ICT Main Stand (adult 26+) = £380 / County = £360 ICT Main Stand (young adult 16-25) = £280 / County £ no equivalent ICT Main Stand (U16) = £130 / County = £80 (U18) ICT Main Stand (U12) = £70 / County = £25 (U18) ICT Main Stand (65+) = £ 310 / County £210 dropping to £105 over 75 ICT North Stand (adult 26+) = £330 / County = £300 ICT North Stand (young adult 16-25) = £200 / County £ no equivalent ICT North Stand (U16) = £110 / County = £80 (U18) ICT North Stand (U12) = £FREE / County = £25 (U18) ICT North Stand (65+) = £ 220 / County £165 dropping to £82.50 over 75 ... off to have a shower now after visiting that website over the bridge.

Liam Hughes is off to Barrow.

Great news , a striker and a decent contract . Well done Richie good start . Looking forward to next signing .Exciting times

Great stuff, he's exactly the type of player to go for, someone on the up.

Every signing is 'a bit of a risk' but it makes a refreshing change from last year to get this piece of business concluded so efficiently and early in the close season so that the player gets a full pre season under his belt as an integral part of the squad. Taken together with his undoubted role in retaining David Raven, a very promising start to the Richie Foran era.

Things are Boden well for the future

If he turns out to be anywhere as good as our last signing from Newport, Gary Warren, he'll do for me!

This looks like a sensible acquisition. Newport finished 3rd bottom and he still managed 13 goals in 45 games. Before anyone starts suggesting that this is a poor scoring record, it is worth noting that Miles Storey (who we'd have loved to have retained) had an almost identical record with us. Welcome Scott and well done Richie!

I think it's a good idea. The lesser clubs are not going to meet Welsh or Irish opposition until the last 16..... and I think at this stage an away trip (European adventure if you will) would be quite an exciting prospect for most of these teams. It will also be great for the young players to get competitive games under their belts. A very good idea in my opinion and I hope it works :)

Scott Boden will be signing in the next couple of days, Newport County striker. He scored 15 goals for a pretty poor Newport side last season and hit double figures with both Halifax Town and Maccelsfield in previous seasons. He played with both Ross Draper and Carl Tremarco at Macclesfield.

Was that not in the cup at Motherwell?

Roberts and Mutoumbo...... Yogi signed them didn't he? Also fon Williams. i thought all his signings were terrible or have I been reading the forum wrong?

I wouldn't put it past them - but all the same, over the last few days I've started inclining towards Remain. 13 days to go though.

This is an important competition for lower league clubs and, generally speaking, one of their very few opportunities to win silverware. The competition worked well on that level and will be much the poorer for being won by the likes of Celtic's youth team. A poor and self interested decision in my view.

shocking to see that ross county fc has a far better disabled season tickets prices than caley thistle do for a county one is £165 and a caley one is £315 due to your age your are disabled all your life what has age got to do with a season ticket will done ross county fc they care about disabled people
