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.

Let’s hope JBA pulls off a couple of tactical masterclasses and gets us 6 points. Both will be tough games especially since we don’t have Welsh for the Celtic game. Fingers crossed AP and Hendry find their shooting boots and start scoring, although I don’t care who scores as long as we do.

0 points........taxi for JBA yes.......that was a joke

Next 2 games: 0 points - Dissapointing 1 point - meh 2 points - OK (surely not 2 goalless draws...) 3 points - Good 4 points - Fantastic 6 points - Could we actually win the league?

I am pleased celtic won as it keeps Nancy in a job. I expect them to beat Livi away also. Hopefully we can give them a right good game but first we have the rangers game and we should go in with belief

Having watched both Rangers and Celtic today, I dont see anything for us to be worried about. Rangers are a bit more solid than Celtic defensively but they look pretty toothless. Celtic have more going forward, but they have been extremely wasteful of late and are wide open at the back. They only won today because Aberdeen played the whole second half with 10 men. Not saying we will win both games or even one of them. But they are not the scarey proposition they used to be. If we turn up and play our usual game and dont make any stupid errors we will compete and hold our own with both of them. As for Hearts. Yes they are a good team and are well clear at the top, but they have also failed to beat us twice, so lets give ourselves a little bit of credit!

The only absolute certainty is that we won't get 5.

2 very tough games coming up, but I think potentially at least a draw in one of those games is very possible One comment I saw today from a Rangers fan today saying absolutely scunnered with his team in general, even said thinking of giving up football completly Does sound a bit dramatic of course, onto the other mob and I think if Celtic had lost Wilifred Nancy would have been away before we play them. Happy he is not
