One of my biggest bug bears is how long it takes us to decide a player ain't got it. Barry McGuire should have been moved on at least 18 months ago. It was the same with Stuart Carswell. 4 seasons with us and the max it should have been was 2. Bevis Mugabi coming into that category too. In his 5th year with us now and should have been moved on again about 18 months ago. Thankfully Bevis contract is up this summer however I've just got this awful feeling we will give him another contract. Mind you I don't think anyone will ever beat the 9 years Stevie Woods got. Consistently the worst Goalkeeper I have ever seen us have. He has no equal in the kind of fuck ups we endured from him.

Bang on. Don't look on twitter you'd think we were losing a world class player.

I was seriously begining to think I was watching a different guy with all the weeping and wailing about his departure on twitter and how great a signing he was. The guy was steady / decent nothing more, his form of late had dipped. He is only 19 and may well turn out to be a quality player but right now he's replaceable and that's SKs job to find a suitable replacement.

To be fair I think most acknowledged we'd have taken a point before a ball was kicked bit the way we played is still concerning.

I wasn't suggesting we shouldn't do it . My point was it was so predictable we'd make a cunt of it and we'd give them the ball back as we did the entire game.

Our problem started because we fannied about at a corner in the 90th minute. You just knew we'd give Hibs the ball straight back. We did it all game our possession play was abysmal. If we can't keep possession for more that 10 seconds we will always give the opposition a lifeline. Dreadful game management.

I wonder if that's because Thistle don't fancy him or SK thinks we need him.

Yes they shouldn't be exempt but sometimes it's actually the players fault for being unable to pass a ball ten feet.

Not yet.

I have sympathy for him, why should he carry the can for pros who can't do the fuckin basics. Kettlewell has to suffer the same stuff.

What if he steers us to 8th

The standard is dreadful across all the teams. I've not seen one decent team against us which made our horrific run all the more depressing. Big game on Tuesday, if we can get away from Easter Road with anything it gives us a chance to take a breather regroup and possibly get some new faces in because we badly need them. The current squad is frankly dreadful and at least 6 or 7 need to be in their last season with us. I'm most pleased for Stuart Kettlewell. I know a few wanted him sacked but I've always hoped he'd turn it around. I think he's an honest hard working guy who is really giving his all for the club. Will he see it out? still a fine line but personally for me I really hope so.

Performance doesn't matter right now but you have to say if we continue to play like that for the rest of the season we will be mired in the dogfight right to the last game. I sincerely hope we have a couple of decent signings up our sleeve in the January window because that squad is pitiful.

Slattery s default position

We had an element that loved Bob Malcolm so anything is possible.

Ah so that's where he got the info... Mind you he's been a pretty good source before, time will tell. I'd much rather KVV went there than Dundee Utd or St Mirren where he could do us real damage 😆😆

Back in work today and speaking to a friend who is generally a reliable source of football gossip. Apparently KVV will sign a 6 month loan deal with Rangers. Was supposedly at Murray Park yesterday for a medical. If true Im frankly amazed that he secured that deal. That said zero risk for Rangers, 6 months for what they'd need to pay him will be small change to them.

Thank God you said Tom Boyd apart...lol I'd airbrush that cunt out of every picture of the Cup winning team. A horrible horrible bastard.

None of our fans enjoy us getting beat , that's the reality , the pish that's spouted on here should always be taken with a huge pinch of salt.

Nothing surprises me about our fan base 😆😆

Can't see it. He's scored five goals since he left us, he's 32 I don't think he's what Hearts would look to replace Shankland. Might be wrong just can't see any of the bigger clubs in Scotland going for him. He does seem to carry baggage hence Gronigen are willing to punt him after 5 months of a two year deal.

Those will be the ones that applaud the team off the park after we've been horsed. That one baffles me.

Possibly, not sure Killie have the finance needed Dundee possibly. Oh I forgot St Mirren they are desperate for a striker and could be an outside bet.

I don't think his scoring exploits since leaving us will attract any of the top teams in Scotland, especially at 32. That's why I think Dundee Utd will fancy him. someone within the price range and offer enough over a season to be the difference between them getting up or not. What a scenario that would be us facing Utd in a play off with them having Gallagher , Watt, Moult and KVV. The stuff of nightmares 😆😆😆

Anyone care to bet against KVV going to Dundee Utd. He ain't going to Rangers or us and I suspect none of the more fancied team in the SPFL will go for him.
