Hopefully Brown will be able to play. He is very Influential. Hope Black gets a chance at some point for the team but it will be hard. We have good CM's.

I think they might be a bit out of our wage barrier

Your points were as follows: We have better players Highly questionable if we do in fact have better players, especially compared to Dundees squad. Their forward line for example is the kind you assemble in a game of Football Manager (except it's for SFL1). Whilst I am not writing our lads off I am realistic to know that "we have better players" is simply not true. a vital mix of young and experianced players I think you'll find pretty much every team has this in SFL1. How exactly this sets us apart from the other sides and makes us better I don't really know. Would be interested in finding out though. we have players that are both new to Scottish football and could intoduce some flair to our game That's good. I'm sure supporters of SFL clubs will tell you all about the number of "flair players" this division and how well they do :( There are also plenty of players who are new to Scottish football who are going to be facing us next season for other clubs so this point can be applied to others also no? also players who have got both SPL and SFL experiance As with the majority of your points this can be applied to plenty of other teams in our league. What makes our ones so special? What players in our squad have significantly more SPL experience than other teams players? Munro? Tokely? Rooney? Barrowman? SPL experience can be a positive thing to have within the squad, depending how you look at it. Dundee have just as much SPL experience as we do. I can see your insular bubble bursting in big style over the course of the forthcoming season. My main point is that everything you say that supposedly sets us aside from other teams in our quest to win the title can in fact be applied to just about any other SFL1 club and can certainly be applied to those expected to challenge for the title this year. I think we will be up there, I think we will challenge and give it a good go but over the course of the season I still think Dundee have too much in their locker and they can improve their team again if they need to due to their cash reserves if things aren't going quite the way they want. That said, maybe the tag of favourties will be a hinderance to them. Let's hope so. You are a rather negative person! I think you need help with that.

The man has to eat regardless of where he plays :( 10.45....Imre seen to be taking a *****

That's the kind of arrogance you'd expect from an OF fan. This paragraph could be applied to Dunfermline, Dundee, QotS, Ross County and so on so I fail to see why we are radically different. The "Having better players" is highly debateable. I think a lot of our fans are going to be in for a real shock this season. In fairness it really couldnt. County and QotS havnt played in the SPL and all the players they have that did are not up to the standerds of ours. Dunfermline have a good team but looking at the two i tink we have better and obviously Dundee will be our biggest challange but they do not have the same SPL experiance in their team as we do.

Could not agree more. We are looking stronger than last year. Just looking at our team and the other teams in our league we look far superior. We have better players, a vital mix of young and experianced players. Also, lastly, we have players that are both new to Scottish football and could intoduce some flair to our game but also players who have got both SPL and SFL experiance such as Duncan, Tokely, Lionel, Munro, McBain.

I dont think we need a new striker tbh. Just give them time to wokr together and i think we have a great strike force. Foran, Rooney, Odi, Sanchez and Barrowman all looking for a start. One of them i wouldnt let near the ground let alone a start but still. We have a good strike force.

I expect that from Lionel so it has to be Tokely.

Nah radio no where is a much better song, or dancing in the dark. We could play Monster by the automatic, and pause it a the chorus so we can sing the craig brewtser song.. you now the one. Ok, this is off topic, but i just need to say that Born to run is his best EVER hit. My personal fav is Thunder Road though :P

We have a solid strike force now i think. I would start with Rooney and Foran. Hopefully get Sanchez on from the bench a few times to give him experiance then he hopefully should be ready.

You cant be serious!? Tokely was our best player last season bar the mistake against Falkirk. But yes, i think proctor would do a good job in that space. if i remember correctly he could play there in Football manager 2006? So he must be able to do a good job there :P

I know i just mentioned this in another Thread but we should run out to a Bruce Springsteen song....Born to Run in the case of running out onto the pitch. Every one loves Born to Run.

I have one thing to say....Please, play some Bruce Springsteen against Ayr. Go for it. Ya canna beat a good bit of Brucey! Thunder Road would be a treat. Maybe Glory Days as we have just been relegated and are looking back on the "Glory Days" of the SPL?

Well its not as if hes someone that springs to mind easily is he?

I agree to the extent he looks a good player but im not too sure hes the best.

We where lucky.

This might be short sighted but **** it. I dont really care what type of deals they are on, as long as we get promoted again then im happy. A year or 5 year deals, end of the day its what they do in the course of one season that counts so i dont care. Just get us promoted!

What the ***** going on? This is terrible! What a joke. Fortunatly we still have a two weeks before the start of the league. Things MUST improve

I already said i was brining mates. Which includes you! Dafty!

First game of the season, Club needs the support and the fact we might actually win!

Im very confident now. Not over confident, but i think we have the best team in the league and more than capible now of winning it. Before i wasnt so sure.

This could easily back fire as it has times before. But at the same time the players will feel that they are not tied down and wont feel under as much pressure which will hopefully help the team.

Looking at our team i would say we have the best team in the league. We have players with 1st divison and SPL experiance plus some new talent who could bring a bit of spark.

:D :015:

Will the supporters bus be stopping in Dunfermiline early enough to get to the Pub?
