Mo Salah 2+1 Egypt 8

Mas on for last 3 minutes

I don't mean it will be easy if he is in charge, I just meant if he got punted the fans would be boosted if it was o'neill back. If sellik had a striker they would have destroyed Aberdeen yesterday. Mind you we have sane issues striker wise. Hendry looks so down when he misses chances, if he can get one then hopefully confidence increases

1-1

Zimbabwe v Egypt on channel 4 streaming channel. Zimbabwe leading 1-0. Mas on the bench

If the last six months have taught us anything, it’s that JBA knows exactly what he’s doing at Motherwell, so I fully expect a good January transfer window.

Jan 1st to Feb 2nd

When does the transfer window 'slam' open ?

Did any if us honestly have Just, Fadinger, Said or even Watt (from our own league) on their radar? Im guessing very few of us. I'de like to think the manager has a few irons in the fire that we wont have a clue about.

What little he has had to do, he has done well and has contributed ton the run of 6 clean sheets.

Kofi Balmer interesting Derry City after Ross County deal went cold.

I don't think Nancy is the mug that the Scottish media are making him out to be They dominated Aberdeen yesterday and whilst it is hard to get a true picture given that Aberdeen were down to 10 men, Celtic could have scored 5/6 goals. If Nancy's system starts to click they will give some teams a real going over. I think that our performances this season have matched Hearts and the two teams are very closely matched so if Hearts can beat Rangers we can certainly match Rangers. I can't see them step up their performance levels significantly. We could come away with six points over the next two weeks, we could come away with nothing, but we are quickly establishing ourselves as a genuine top 4 side and even one victory in the two games would be a real statement of intent. The fact that we are even considering these possibilities is dreamland after some fairly barren seasons. Unfortunately the nature of the beast is that if we should come away with all 6 JBA will be on the shopping list for any big UK club struggling over the Christmas period.

Totally, not many teams have the luxury of a " penalty box" striker, a lot of work done in build up etc...as far as that side of thing goes , hendry and stam do OK. Maybe just looking for that player that can make something from nothing...hendry did thst on sat in 1st half but he choked the shot

That's the key though. When we are conceding, goalies often take the blame. Sometimes deserved, sometimes not. Defence, however, needs a team effort from front to back with the keeper being the last resort. Much better to prevent shots on target before he is needed.

It's often hard to judge forwards, or players as there are so many factors in play over and above footballing talent. That's why we often see players over or underperform at different clubs. Theo Bair is a recent example. This far into his 15 goal season for his he had only scored 2 goals. So it can be very difficult to predict who is going to settle in and hit form.

Hendry might just be unlucky but he should've bagged a few by now, Stam just hasn't got it imo There must be forwards out there that would improve us which is a good thought It's hard to judge how other forwards in spl would do with us ...would Bruce anderson at killie be an upgrade?Just using him as an example. Seems a busy player , I'm not saying he would, interested to see people's thoughts

I'd be happy with 2 draws or 1 win and a defeat...it's rangers and celtic, even when not at their best, they should have enough. Without sounding paranoid , they will get the benefit of some decision/s over the 2 games..remains to be seen if it's game changing ones.

You're right about Ward, he is looking a lot more solid these days. Having said that, it is obvious to me that our defence are not leaking many opportunities to the other team, so Ward hasn't actually had much to do. I can recall two good saves in the past month and a lot of him with the ball at his feet but not much else!

I find it hilarious at work this season listening to fans of both the arse cheeks arguing about who’s teams worse, who’s boards making a bigger backside of things and who’s got the worst most clueless manager. Love sitting watching them going tonto and just when they’re all just about spent with their wrath, chucking in another wee grenade and watching them all lose it again

Makes more money cutting hair

Hopefully we can pile on a wee bit more agony for them.

That's very believable. They've spent most of their lives watching their team ragdoll weaker opposition, and only having to worry about one other team, who they couldn't survive without. Now the poor souls are leaving for the game not even sure if they're going to win. Such a shame 😆

Amazing how this season Saturday’s can’t come quick enough.

This is going to be a long week till next Saturday.
