What an opportunity for fans to offer advice to players on how to improve their performances!

On the surface it sounds like a good idea, but I expect that young lads will just want their own place. I did it when I was younger moving to a new town for a month. People were lovely and massively helpful, but I was really glad to get my own place.
There is also the vetting process of the applicants.

Personally a great idea but what is wrong with the club representatives not doing something. Young lads will learn nothing from supporters but plenty from Pros or ex Pros.

I’m already on it. Three of oor players live in the next block to me and ma request, at .net b&b rates, re my spare room, can be found on the offishul club facebook page.

There doesn’t appear to be any rush at the moment but I live in hope.

Reading the article, I spotted that Patrick Thistle`s new GM is Levi Gill, who was formerly the CEO at Barrow.

That won`t mean anything to most, but I found it an interesting link between the two "other" clubs that I have supported regularly, in person and financially. Football is just a village.

Imagine we send some young midfielder to live with Berkey, the poor lad`s confidence would be at an all time low after week 1

He would be quickly deemed "not good enough" for the Berkey household and moved out to the garage.

Rubbish.

With a front row seat to Berkey`s reading of the game and tactical acumen the lad will be off to PSG before the seasons done.

Berkey might go on a bit but at the end of the day, the players he called out are no longer here, so he couldn`t have been too far off the mark.

I don`t wanna go down like disco.
