Heartbeat Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Anybody there last night, Believe JJ, BB,and GL were the guest speakers. Any news updates? From memory nothing controversial or sensational. Did mention Bryson JJ and merely stating what the press already know i.e he rates him and has identified him but offer has been made and no further forward. Didnt give too much away on that one Commented we had 64 players and the lack of reserve league was a big problem as cannot keep everyone happy. Squad will be getting reduced as cannot carry that many. Neil Doncaster will address the meeting in October (I think) and the issue of following suit with England and limiting first team squads to 25 has at least been mentioned but suggested questions could be asked then. Blamed the previous sporting director(s) policy of simply re signing everyone at u19 level on 5 years deals as a factor in the squad size. Youngsters would get 1 year deal or 2 at most if deemed to be exceptional but basis was to keep them hungary and not have a 5 year deal at 18 making them think they has "made it" Seems to speak highly of Metliski (sp?) and has a good relationship with him as talks the same language in terms of football being an ex player but again the press already have noted this. Cant think of anything else, maybe disciplinary measures was mentioned and Zal and LW attended a meeting just prior to first game to be made clear the fines etc that would occur for stupid bookings and sendings off Thats all I can recall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was he going to look in a mirror or something ? Oh and the standard of the meal hit a new low. There is guy on the fringe with a show called Jim Jeffries. Apparently he has been mistaken for our JJ and heckled. Got some media cover and I presume the real JJ was going to the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoussetsShorts Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Only thing of interest I was told is that it will DEFINITELY be a 14 team league next season, very good source. Play everybody twice then a split into playing the top 7 / bottom 7 teams twice again. Playoff for 2nd relegation spot also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stanley_ Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 UNBELIEVABLE The 64 players includes the U19s. There are 39 (I think) players born 1991 or earlier. That is clearly still too many although 6 of them have already gone away on loan and more might follow. Also Witteveen is obviously not wanted.

Mr Loverman Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 There was no way JJ could or would tell the whole story on that one. Well, he started off by saying "I'm not going to lie to you" and then proceeded to stammer and waffle through the rest of it sounding as convincing as a Hibs fan saying they will win the Scottish Cup this year!!

kitster Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 Gutted we sold our shares to Vlad now..at least they paid for a private second scan. I found out he was healthy and a boy. The dry lamb?

Nah both me and my dad wouldn't thank anyone for that. K, I dont believe anybody was thanked for what was served up on Thursday. Just as bad was the fact that the lassie serving it up trid to convince us that it hadnt been lying under the "hot lamps" in the kitchen. Maybe she was telling the truth so with that being the case it was obviously the chefs previous days attempt at lunch that hadnt sold so it was reheated in the oven for 3 or 4 hours and served up to us. Oh and one other thing while I'm griping, the me and u said it was Baby "Roast" Tatties....Not a Roast Tattie in sight. Oh and while I'm at it, my mate who was a guest, got 9 croutons in his soup, I got 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
