"You don't win anything with Kids"
I will probably get shot down for this, but hey it's a football forum for debates after all. So back to the topic of my thread, as a famous football pundit infamously once said "You don't win anything with kids" and to a certain extent, this is sadly very true. In fairness, Paul Sturrock is...- Silencer

So what's going on here? A no show at training for over a week, a no show at MTBD today.Rumours are rife he has gone but the club are keeping hush about it to enable a decent transfer as they have opted to take the 12 month extension out.

Injury updates?
Now that the euphoria over the re-signing of our favourite son has died down just a little, can I pose what I would consider to be a rather pertinent question.

Barry Corr
We need this guy back ASAP. The only one in our team apart from Mohsni, who isn't a striker so finds it hard, who can win a header, hold the ball up and bring others into play. He works hard for the team and is also a Sturrock type striker so fits well into the system. If he was in the team now...- FarmdogSUFC
