I can see the benefits of teams from the UK going abroad for "warm weather training" as it's a challenge playing in the heat, but do you think teams from hot countries go to Aberdeen in December for some cold weather training? Just a tongue in cheek bit of fun,

Get that, but out of those left still wouldn’t want to lose Sheehan, Cogley or Morley who was on the bench as they’ve done enough since that game. 

There's only Cogley I'd be remotely bothered about in those 3 tbf.

Although I'm interested to see what he does with Sheehan.

Morley wasn't here for half the season, and though he did well initially, he also played when we were a bit biz. Injury didn't help him of course.

Each to their own of course, and we've don't this to death, but Sheehan could go for me.

Cogley again improved under SS but they were all criticised, with some saying they can all go.

Just seems odd to then add a caveat.

Upped the professionalism?

Good on SS then- McAtee can perhaps count himself a touch fortunate that he hasn't been told to fund a new club, especially as he sees himself doing the same role as Collins, who was told a new style was to be employed that wouldn't suit him. 

Hopefully, we'll see a new player, if not he isn't likely to be around for long.

Rhude shorts they'll have set him back a fair whack!

Never heard of them.

Best will in the world, but JM doesn't sound the brightest, and there must be some manufacturers pissing their sides at how much certain folk will splash out.

"Sekonda- beware of expensive imitations"

Each to their own though, and if he likes them, then go for it.

He's from Walkden, what do you expect?

Their stuff seems better quality than high street brands but not 450 quid for a pair of shorts better.

For 450 notes I'd expect a Certificate of Authenticity stating they were hand sown on the naked lap of one of the naturist nuns of the Convent of St. Crispin* using only rare breed alpaca wool interspersed with their trademark pubes for every thousandth stich. Living a life of strict adherence to their vow of lack of clothes, the convent lies in a secluded valley north eat of Padua and is only ever visited by a Papal delegate twice a year, who collects the finished garments and confirms the sisters' strict adherence to their vows through thorough inspection. Such is the diligence of the delegate, visits are said to take up to a week to complete, sometimes longer. Indeed, in at least one instance, the delegate was never heard of again.

* According to wiki, St. Crispin is the Patron Saint of cobblers, which this all is.

St Hubbins is the patron saint of cobblers; I thought everybody knew that. Thicky Wiki.

Forgot about the guy in the Dundee United shirt, walking up to the ground.

He was gutted when I told him that Dalby was out injured.

Tbf, he did stay until about 70 minutes.
