Doesn't generally bother me the social media output of any player tbh. They can support who they want clearly and that's fine for me But it is a bit unprofessional I think when it's a team in the same league. At the least it's just a shite look. Regardless, he's not quite good enough anymore at this level it seems. Loan to Killie appears to what is happening by end of this month

Aye, it's defintley an option I'd explore. Said elsewhere Watt is ideal for that role. However, I'd stick with the 4-3-3 for Sunday. Same team but Ojala in and Lamie out. Lamie provides balance but I think Mugabi is the better defender tbh. Lamie makes so many poor decisions.

I always have a wee laugh when folk get all misty eyed about Lasley. He very very often went very quiet when things weren't going well. The fact he was so bad at timing tackles kept him up there for a lot of fans. I should state - I'm a big Las fan. But I never thought he was the vocal presence he needed to be.

Genuinely? I've been way way way more worried than this before. Last season I was a wee bit worried about the business we did even if it was early, and we didn't win a league game until the middle of September. Prior to that the other one that jumps to mind is when I saw us lining up with Conor Sammon and Aaron Taylor Sinclair in the starting line up on opening day v Hibs. I'm may be de-sensitised to overly worrying I think as we've not won an opening league game since 16/17!

General sale isn't on sale yet. So you'll struggle until then I'd wager. Season ticket holders get seat confirmation tonight/tomorrow (anyone who applied will get a seat, it's a not a ballot,) General sale is going up tomorrow.

We're just about to sign a Finnish international centre half.

It's clearer than what is publicly available. That's all I'll say.

Knowing a couple of people at the council it's not as simple as moving up the percentages. They've got a guidance framework but every game and ground is looked at across loads of variables and each council will be the same. We luckily have a decent relationship with them too. Things like total actual capacity, space for players and staff, actual number of fans, entry and exit points to stadium and surrounding approach etc, space within stadiums and different stands, will more people likely travel by car or public transport, previous fan behaviour,l and previous club behaviour.in the pandemic.To name but a few.

I know you aren't a fan of O'Hara but I'm not sure why you are mentioning him here? I like both lads to be honest. 100% agree on what Grimmy brings to the team in that respect. Been saying the same myself for a while - all the way back to the cup finals season. When he's on point and driving us forward from right back it's great and opens up a lot. I do like O'Hara when he's on song and played correctly too. The latter being the most important point. Robinson, for me, shifted him about to much as some sort of Donnelly V2 in his own eyes. But I don't see him as someone who drives us forward like Grimmy does at his best - which it kind of, I think, looks like your suggesting other have said.

I think that was maybe the case last year when we were in complete lockdown. But, as OTF, said there are quite a lot of new protocols and exemptions now in place for travelling while working since the original lockdown. However, there may be some players that just would prefer to stay closer to home during this time - can defintley see that. Either way we should have a scouting network covering down south and up here. Feels like we do have both in play given recent signings but I could be wrong. As an aside, choking for a proper player rumour here to keep me going.

I'm happy with us taking our time and getting the right players over the next few weeks. We were very early in doing business last year, from memory, and that didn't exactly pan out as well as hoped.

I can't help but think one of Lamie/Mugabi will start a lot and one of Crawf/Maguire/Donnelly too.

Will be interesting to see how it pans out with GA...that's a few times youve hinted that he might not be here for the long haul. :-)

Bob Malcolm will take some beating in my opinion.

Knowing how Billy Bowie operates I wouldn't be too hasty on jumping fully on the side of Killie here.
