| 21. Author: par_33 Date: Tue 22nd Jul 2025. 22:32 Hamilton have got a decent enough squad that should get them promotion back to the Championship. Players such as Shaw, Robinson, Smith, O’Hara, Bradley n Mckinstry. My pick for League 1 was Inverness to start but I see they start on -5 points so we’ll see how it goes. Comrie though, what’s the script with that? Obviously can’t officially sign with them but can only play a max of three games as a trialist. Not really a point of being there unless there’s a back handed brown envelope being handed to him ? Really did think he’d have secured a club by now. Someone like Partick, Morton or QP. He’s bides through the west in Glasgow I’m sure. Reply |
| 22. Author: GJS93 Date: Wed 23rd Jul 2025. 11:29 the three games is in the league and doesnt apply in the group stage of the cup, can play in all 4 of them too. he has already signed but just isnt registered while the transfer embargo is in place other Hamilton news, Michael Tidser is joining them as part of the youth setup (daily record) Reply |
| 23. Author: wee eck Date: Wed 23rd Jul 2025. 11:33 Not just Michael Tidser. 3 ex-Pars are involved! `Former Motherwell skipper Scott Leitch is set to become the new head of Hamilton Accies` youth academy amid a number of new appointments at the League One club. The 55-year-old former midfielder would bring a wealth of experience to the role, having been assistant manager at the Steelmen and Aberdeen, both under Mark McGhee. Leitch was a manager in his own right at Ross County in 2006/07 and was also academy head at Motherwell between 2013-17. Leitch brought through the likes of David Turnbull during that period and also worked with a very young Lennon Miller when he was making his first strides in the game at Fir Park. And it is understood Leitch is set to be joined by former Dunfermline and Kelty Hearts boss Michael Tidser as well as former Hibs striker and ex-Albion Rovers boss Kevin Harper, who will assist with the club`s youth sides this season as they look to rebuild their elite academy after a summer of change. Accies` first team star Dylan McGowan has been promoted to first-team coach, which has created a vacancy in the youth setup.` Reply |
| 24. Author: GJS93 Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 11:09 would think Comrie will be looking for a new club now.... season long transfer embargo! https://spfl.co.uk/news/spfl-statement-hamilton-academical Post Edited (Fri 25 Jul 11:28) Reply |
| 25. Author: Athletico Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 11:38 I can`t see how they won`t get relegated or even make it to the end of the season. They couldn`t fill a bench, and they had 2 trialists in their starting 11. Vultures will be circling now, Oli Shaw will be target number 1. Reply |
| 26. Author: wee eck Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 11:41 They can sign some players but subject to very strict limits - `As per SPFL rules, Accies can register players who were born on, or after, 1 January 2006, as well as amateur players but it`s another bitter blow for John Rankin`s side as they face an uphill battle to return to the Scottish Championship at the first attempt.` Reply |
| 27. Author: neils Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 11:41 What a mess, they also got a suspended fine for not declaring accounts yet again. Hard to see how they can start the season, hard to think how they can afford to have a guy like Ollie Shaw on the books, although this seems to be part of the reason for Hamiltons opaque running. Feel sorry for Comrie, but was curious why he `signed` for a 3rd tier team when he is a decent 2nd tier player What a mess, still full time when not even playing in Hamilton. Reply |
| 28. Author: cammypar 1995 Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 12:03 neils, Fri 25 Jul 11:41 I think curious is a bit generous if we’re being honest. If he had better offers on the table from championship clubs you`d think he`d have taken them. Hamilton were a shambles when he signed, and everyone could see it. Fair play to him for going there and trying it out but it always looked like a gamble.Shame it didn’t work out, but I reckon he will sign for another League 1 side. c'mon the pars Reply |
| 29. Author: Jeffery Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 12:11 Does this not make it even less likely they would sell Shaw? They`ll really need to hang on to what they have. Purely conjecture, but those fairly well known appointments in youth development could be because they knew this was coming and knew they would need to focus on getting the most out of the young players they have. Would have Shaw in a heartbeat if the move could be done. Reply |
| 30. Author: wee eck Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 12:14 That SPFL statement says that Hamilton had failed to pay their tax obligations and inform the SPFL about it on three occasions since the last hearing. I wonder if they are up to date yet? They`re only heading one way if they fail to pay HMRC on time. Reply |
| 31. Author: LEGEND85 Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 12:19 You wonder how much it would take to get Shaw out of Hamilton he would definitely be a decent signing Reply |
| 32. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 13:15 Maybe Airdrie will come in for Aaron? That’s not too long a commute for him.  It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply |
| 33. Author: Raymie the Legend Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 13:15 wee eck, Fri 25 Jul 12:14 You’d know about that, wee eck 😉 It`s bloody tough being a legend Ron Atkinson - 1983 Reply |

| 36. Author: Buster_Brown Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 14:29 Gotta feel for the Hamilton fans here and for players like Comrie and Telfer…..what the dickens is going on?? It seems a total shambles and it seems like we only k ow the tip of the iceberg. Can’t see any other outcome for them than relegation and administration. Just seems totally and utterly bonkers.

| 37. Author: craigypar35 Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 14:46 LEGEND85, Fri 25 Jul 12:19 I hoped we would sign him in the summer. He’s still a top championship striker and would be a great addition to our very depleted strike force. Reply |
| 38. Author: wee eck Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 14:53 Hasn`t he still got two years on his contract? I`d imagine there would competition for his signature. Reply |
| 39. Author: neils Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 14:55 That`s the suspect thing, Ollie Shaw was a decent enough striker , and he was ok in the top flight. Why did he sign for Accies, and why has he been there for all this time? I see Tidser has signed up as the Academy coach. Who and why are people looking at this club and not touching it with a bargepole? Aaron Comrie is comfortably a Championship player, why does he think this is nothing other than career suicide?

| 40. Author: cammypar 1995 Date: Fri 25th Jul 2025. 15:31 neils, Fri 25 Jul 14:55 he though? Surely if he had offers in the Championship he`d have been away there sharpish rather than ending up at Hamilton. Doesn`t add up. Maybe his options were a bit more limited than you`d think. c'mon the pars Reply |
