| 901. Author: wee eck Date: Tue 15th Jul 2025. 13:03 He seemed to me to be implying that playing `young raw loans` was a big part of why we were relegated. The fact that the game he mentioned happened the season before that happened made a nonsense of his point. It`s a classic example of negative thinking being so ingrained that it distorts people`s opinions. It`s actually quite common on here unfortunately. Reply |
| 902. Author: kozmasrightfoot Date: Tue 15th Jul 2025. 14:27 Could young Hearts keeper Harry Stone perhaps be on our radar? No concrete evidence, I just read that clubs are interested in him. Lennon looking to maybe bring in 2 keepers, maybe hes one of them. Limited experience so its just guesswork. Pars fan. Magpies fan. Mens tennis fan. Alternative rock fan. Not a fan of much else.

| 903. Author: Berkey Date: Tue 15th Jul 2025. 14:28 Ah apologies it was the season before, to be fair we were already on the downward trend from a team competing for the playoffs to a team that would be relegated just the season after. Not like wee eck to take me referencing a single game where it was memorable in how poorly we were set up and extrapolate that i must be saying something totally different such as it was the youngsters who relegated us in his rush to try and score a point. Gosh darn it, the gruesome twosome, those heros of mediocrity who follow every post I make within 10minutes of making it have scored a rare win. At ease soldiers. In many cases including that game against Raith where it was blatantly obvious, the youngsters were effectively hung out to dry regardless of being individually good enough or not.

| 905. Author: wee eck Date: Tue 15th Jul 2025. 14:45 Berkey, does it satisfy your ego to believe that some of us just visit this forum to respond to your posts? I don`t really follow your logic in the second paragraph above. In 2020-21 Stevie Crawford was the manager but he resigned during the following close season to be replaced by Peter Grant for 2021-22. I`m pretty sure the consensus is that it was his recruitment and style of play that set us on the path to relegation, aided and abetted by John Hughes who replaced him after about 3 months. I fail to see how the way SC set us up the previous season had anything to do with it. Post Edited (Tue 15 Jul 14:46) Reply |
| 906. Author: Buster_Brown Date: Tue 15th Jul 2025. 15:11 kozmasrightfoot, Tue 15 Jul 14:27 I wondered that myself. I saw him a few times at QoS and he looked excellent. I know a GK Coach who worked with him and he says he will be an International Goalkeeper one day. The couple of times I watched Ayr last season, he was in and out and when he was in, I didn’t see anything that made him a standout but I didn’t see anything to suggest he wasn’t good enough. I spoke to Paul Gallagher about him (at the Meet The Goalkeepers event at East End) and he said he is very highly regarded at Hearts and they are also funding him through a legal Degree, but Gallagher also said he felt he had a big future in the game. I would be in favour of signing him, but it would probably be a loan deal again, by the sound of things. Reply |
| 907. Author: AlterPar Date: Tue 15th Jul 2025. 16:19 Harry Stone I’d take if we were going with Mehmet as number 1. He has looked alright whenever I have seen him. I’ve also read Buster that he is very highly rated, I can only comment from experience of watching him much like yourself. On another note all together, I’m really surprised Hale is still at County. Would really expect him to be off before the window is closed. Post Edited (Tue 15 Jul 16:20) Reply |
| 908. Author: Berkey Date: Tue 15th Jul 2025. 20:21 Whilst we would ideally like better than Mehmet, if we had to we could stick with him. If we are a bigger more physical team it would mitigate some of his flaws in terms of not leaving his line at free kicks and corners etc Assuming we can’t have everything we want this summer I’d be happy to go with Mehmet so long as we got a new number 10 in to help create the goals The post below replying to me is by one of .nets finest champions of mediocrity!

| 909. Author: Wotsit Date: Tue 15th Jul 2025. 23:21 Berkey, Tue 15 Jul 20:21 In fairness, Mehmet showed on Saturday that he`s not great when he does leave his line either The enemy travels by private jet, not by dinghy. Reply |
| 910. Author: da_no_1 Date: Tue 15th Jul 2025. 23:29 It`s absolutely wild to suggest we go with Mehmet as our first choice goalkeeper. "Some days will stay a 1000 years, some pass like the flash of a spark" Reply |
| 911. Author: Parca_Par Date: Tue 15th Jul 2025. 23:40 So much negativity about Mehmet, give him the jersey and see how he gets on. Seen a lot worse than him in my years watching Pars keepers... Reply |
| 912. Author: wee eck Date: Tue 15th Jul 2025. 23:56 A couple of items from the Record relating to the Championship - Stevie Mallan featured as a trialist for St johnstone in their 1-1 draw with Dundee Utd. Mallan impressed for Simo Valakari.s side as the Finn looks to add to his squad ahead of their Championship campaign. And fans` reaction to the former St Mirren and Hibs star was positive, with a number keen to see him win a deal with the Perth club for this season. and Celtic have ditched their co-operation agreement with Queen`s Park and will go with Ayr United instead.

| 913. Author: PARadise Date: Wed 16th Jul 2025. 08:45 We`ve watched enough of Mehmet to know his level by now and one thing he`s definitely not is a starter for a team chasing a championship title. Lennon knows this fine well going by his comments. Mehmets a good back up option. Reply |

| 917. Author: wee eck Date: Wed 16th Jul 2025. 16:20 From the Record - `Hamilton boss John Rankin is hoping the club`s transfer embargo will be lifted in the next `week to ten days` – allowing him to sign trialists Charlie Telfer and Ricki Lamie. Accies are unable to sign players after being hit with a 15-point deduction and an embargo in May. The docked points meant they were relegated to League 1 and they`ve been unable to sign anyone since. Telfer and Lamie featured as trialists in the 4-0 defeat to Hearts and Rankin is hoping to be able to offer them deals soon.` Did Aaron Comrie sign for Hamilton or not? I haven`t seen him in any line-up. Reply |
| 918. Author: pars4life1 Date: Wed 16th Jul 2025. 16:50 He can`t be named in any line up as he can`t be registered due to their embargo, he has meant to been playing as a Trialist. Reply |
| 919. Author: wee eck Date: Wed 16th Jul 2025. 17:14 That`s a big gamble, hanging around without getting paid and no guarantee of a deal. Reply |
| 920. Author: pars4life1 Date: Wed 16th Jul 2025. 18:13 At this stage, he`s probably being tagged along with promise of a deal as soon as the embargo is lifted. TBH he`s not that likely to be awash with full time offers. Footballers take risks all the time. I`d say potentially signing a deal with Hamilton is quite a big one when it`s known that they recently have failed to pay wages. If he`s not got another deal ready then it`s not that much harm hoping it works out. If it doesn`t he can put himself back on the market without much issue at this time in the season. He`s got about 6 weeks of clubs actively looking to improve their squads to work with Reply |
