Think you are spot on with the 2 week break Dave it will benefit nobody and you can guarantee Celtic will have a friendly arranged.

Finished 4-1 so no "Paul Lawson returns to haunt us stories" for people to get stressed about then. Any team with Rangers in the title must be pish it will be a routine stroll to the next round for us.

Yes part timers ie Albion Rovers have beaten us, when at the time McCall put out a badly prepared and shit team on that Dodgy plastic at NDP. This time we are at home with a better looking squad and if McGhee gets them prepared properly, this will be a routine victory, but no doubt the pant wetters will suffer sleepless nights until the job is done.

At Fir Park we will pump either of them, non league part timers FFS if they keep it to less than 3 or 4 they will have done well.

considering some of the utter dross we have had for keepers recently Hollis, Neilsen, and yes Twardzik (3rd choice at Dundee when McCall signed him) Ripley is a step up in class. Granted he is not a Ruddy or Randolph but he is miles better than what we had and if he goes back to Boro in January then we have Samson to step in, who is also better than Twardzik.

another performance like the Hearts game will be great we need to get some monentum going and get used to picking up points regularly again. Thistle had a good win last week but they are not that good we can win this one, 2-1 for the good guys.

If it was EK away pretty sure the game would be moved, the K park is too small

Pearson for me, had a great game in Midfield showed some of the fight and decent tackling we have been missing all season

After the shit I sat through in Dingwall last week that was a great game today, we actually looked threatening for a change, a win would have been perfect but on the balance of play a draw was a fair result. The only thing that worried me a bit was after Johnson went off the whole shape and balance of the team changed just to accommodate Ainsworth down the right, we pulled skippy back into midfield and went 1 up front, we sat back and let hearts come on to us.

Try to find and persuade some wealthy individual / consortium to invest in the club, that seems to be the way for most clubs.

All you get by punting 2 or 3 Arseholes from the squad and bringing in 1 more is a smaller wage bill, no improvement in quality.

The number of WS members has been quoted at around 1600 if that is correct its getting close to 50% of our average gate these days, the target seems to be 2000 members at least another 20% i cant see it happening we dont have the fan base.

Any excuse to get the phots out again..its like the England 1966 world cup win..zzzzzźzzzz

Might get some people in place now that actually know how to run the WS/club properly.

As Lobey Dosser mentioned in an earlier post if the club lives within its means then the WS might have a significant role to play, not to run the club on its own that has always been a non starter but to provide a bit of financial support as required. A club of our size will always need a wealthy owner/owners ie Hutchison, Boyle, Chapman etc

said it before if the u20 players are deemed ready for the step up then they will get their chance, maybe McGhee and the rest of the coaching team do not think they are ready?

Dont think its crisis time yet looking at the league table 2 or 3 wins and we could be in 5th place. But we have to get a bit of momentum going, McGhee inherited some crap but we have the basis of a squad capable of getting us up the table and away from the relegation fight. We need to get rid of some of the crap so the January window will be important if we get a few players in for key positions we will be ok

No..he is an obnoxious wee fud and apart from that he would be no improvement on what we have now.

It was a stonewall pen Dave, right in front of us county player was looking for it but Kennedy got wrong side and dived in ref had no choice

skippy was the best of a bad bunch for me put a decent shift in tried hard but got no decent service, constantly trying to deal with high balls punted up to him

As bizarre as it sounds yes...never had a clue where he was supposed to be the whole game

on way back from game we were feckin dire no threat the whole game, pearson had a nightmare as did kennedy and why mcghee thought Johnson could play at left back is beyond me. but to be fair 3-0 flattered county a bit they were nearly as bad as us niether keeper had a decent save to make

yes its a contact sport but RC seem to apply a bit more contact than most other teams. The last 2 games at Fir park they tried to kick us off the park, constant fouls and spoiling the play and as usual no action taken by the refs.

going up for this one,we have shown signs of improvement recently so i think we can get something from the game. would love a win but think it will be a 1-1 draw
