  1. Weren't there supposed to be rumours on P&B to that effect? He's not an out-and-out goal scorer but I agree his hold up and link up play could be useful. Nothing stuck to Bair or Efford today. Looks like we'll need more goals from midfield or Dead-Eye Casey 🤣.
  2. Credit to the manager for the half-time change. I couldn't see us scoring at all at HT but subbing Efford and bringing on Paton to push forward was a great switch. Karma for McInnes perhaps for all his disruptive substitutions? As soon as Killie kicked off after our second goal, the ref blew for full time. Cue Killie players hitting the turf.
  3. Paton transformed the game with his running, passing and awareness, topping it with a composed goal (unlike Vassell when clean through on the left a few minutes earlier). Honourable mentions to Slatts (despite penalty miss) and Dan Da Man. Hope he's not injured now!
  4. Lower than Derby's 11 points in 2007-8? That would be some "achievement" but we'll have to wait and see.
  5. What a difference a week makes! Really energised and optimistic by Biereth's performance against Hibs but pretty devastated by his injury now. Dunne's tackle was out of control imo and should have been a red but it wouldn't have minimised Mika's injury, which we are somehow going to have to adapt to. I suppose this is where a manager earns his corn.
  6. Something for you, MJC: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Power-Positive-Thinking-Norman-Vincent/dp/0749307153/ref=sr_1_1?crid=8KYI4JJGMKQ4&keywords=the+power+of+positive+thinking&qid=1692031393&s=books&sprefix=the+power+of+positive%2Cstripbooks%2C81&sr=1-1
  7. On reflection re your second paragraph, when was the last 'Well manager who lost only 2 out of his last 20? Might have to go back to the league-challenging 'Well teams of the 30s for similar or perhaps a stat. from the Ancell Babes era.
  8. Which is why criticism of Kettlewell at this stage (from some on here), given his stats, seems quite perverse. He has actually quite a threadbare squad in some areas yet hasn't lost an away game and has only lost to The Hens and (unaccountably) Dundee Utd. at Firpers. Interesting match coming up in Paisley.
  9. BBC Scotland were looking forward to Hibs' mouth-watering forward players at 2.30 today. Must have a fair drouth on them by this time.
  10. Mika was the man who changed the game so pretty straightforward. Slattery looks much more eager this season. Miller's through ball for the winner was a beauty.
  11. Please note: "the sword which cuts both ways", grizzlyg.
  12. So we Hibs it against Hibs? Surely not! 2-1 to The Good Guys (hat-trick for Wilkinson, the sword which cuts both ways).
  13. IIRC, the EK supporters' bus version was a prim "got beat 5-2". No alcohol on that bus.
  14. Ha! Ha! Age-related appreciation, obviously 🤣 !
  15. David Turnbull starts for Celtic today. Maybe Mr Rogers knows his stuff after all.
  16. I was mainly thinking of Colin O'Neill but I batted that idea away at the last minute. If he's anything like Alexander the Great, he could be quite good 🤣.
  17. Hope our Macedonian chooses Davor Z as his jersey name: hints of Dracula with just a suggestion of psychopath, ideal for a midfielder.
  18. Would you say he was a bit of a headbanger then?
  19. Although Dunne The Bun in his first incarnation was ok as far as man-bunned LBs were concerned. Maybe we could get SF to sport a claret &amber Alice band instead (now sometimes called a Grealish). He's not a prolific scorer but his linking play is rather good and he's still pretty fit and mobile for an Auld Yin. I hear he has earned eye-watering sums via his various transfers ablaw the dyke and so he may not be too hard to deal with if he wants to stay in the SPL and play in a great strip 🤣. We would then need a Poundshop KVV to play alongside him, of course.
  20. Yup, always loved the classic "floodlight strip" as it used to be called. Last season's white outfit was pretty nice too.
  21. A real hoop? My flabber is well and truly gasted. Let's hope we can get the players to fill the jersey.

  23. Thanks for that. After last season's kit, I fear that a similar "reworking" of the 1996 Jester's Outfit for '23-24 would just about finish me off.
  24. Does anyone have any idea when the new kit will be out?
