About time the loanees were sorted now.


Loans aren't usually sorted until days before the season starts, maybe even a little later. Why should this season be any different?

There's various characters on social media bemoaning us looking at trialists. Must we really have this discussion every year? Why is it necessary to remind people that Kasim was a trialist that couldn't get a game in non-league. Why will it be necessary this time next year to point out that some of this season's trialists (hopefully) went on to be important players for us?

would you agree it's slightly concerning we haven't seemed to bring in a couple of promising youngsters that weren't trialists. like we did Byrne, luongo, etc. i. e. actual targets.

it feels a bit like we are drifting along at the moment.

still a couple of weeks to go..

It's the 19th of July, so no.

Fuck it. While some of you stress yourself over the signings we haven't made yet, I'm going to get excited over the signings that we haven't made yet.

They're fucking brilliant. Great work Mr. Power, we're going up.

I meant the ones we have now. Must be obvious those that need to be discarded.

Stressed? I'm taking the piss.

I'm particularly pleased with the centre back the we haven't signed yet. He really brings out the best in Branco.

Any idea why the official STFC report on the game refuses to actually name the triallists that the 'bogey media', and therefore everyone else, knows the name of.

Seems bizarre.

Dunno about that, but there seems to be widespread confusion over whether or not we missed a penalty.

Clubs are usually accommodating when it comes to pre-season trialists and less so during mid-season behind closed doors friendlies.

Fanzai don't name the full squad either so I would guess that this falls under Power's apparent quite clear media paranoia.

That is often the case, I would argue a penalty is missed when the taker fails to engage the keeper in any way....a method much loved by England players. However, if the keeper saves the shot, then the correct terminology should be we had a penalty saved.

Think the confusion is whether we were awarded a penalty or not.

I wonder who is going to be our penalty-misser this season

I don't mean that. Some sources say Obika missed a penalty (whatever that would entail), others say there was no penalty awarded.
