    I'd play Mark O'Hara there before him. That was a horrendous performance. We let a better right back leave. 

    McGinley had a better second half but there were a few times his touch was that bad that it completely done the Ross County player. 

    McGinley will do ok I reckon

    The two full backs cannot use the ball. Grimmy's two attempts at crosses were comical and McGinley just hangs the ball up like a pub player. 

    McGinley was the only player to come away with any credit...Grimshaw having the right back position sewn up is a worry as he is awful

    I used to listen to guys like McAllister and McLair take the same kind of stick from the East Terrace. If we had a team full of Liam Donnellys I'd give up watching the game.

     

    That's a belter of a comparison

    We're playing Celtic in a friendly anyway apparently. Have to accept that this is a weird pre season when pretty much the only teams available for friendlies are other SPL sides. Not going to be many secrets before the season starts...

    ...and whats your point? Fitba managers and scouts are generally absolute anoraks, they want to know everything about the teams they will come up against and the details they go into are unbelievable

    Nonsense. We've got a chance at getting 3million pounds which would set up our club for years to come. Your thinking they are watching the way we line up, Celtic are far too big-headed for that and expect a victory no matter what way we are playing a pre-season friendly! They are looking at the goods they might pay 3million pounds for, justified, yes!!

    You don't think Lennon would ask the scout how we played and how we set up?

    There are two NHL teams in Ontario which has a population of 15 million. Metro Toronto has a population of over 6 million. The Maple Leafs get average crowds of 20,000.

    It's a stupid comparison. 

    He'll keep going about this daft idea until you agree with him or just give up...

    Only providing access to season ticket holders would be a huge mistake in my opinion. Imagine how many other fans are out there, both home and away, willing to pay a tenner or whatever for a stream of the game? 

    I honestly think this is the future of football. It's taken this virus to force through changes to the rule saying 3pm kick-offs can't be shown, and now the toothpaste is out the tube I don't know if it'll revert back.

    It's a revenue maker that will hopefully sit alongside actual ticket money from match-going fans. I don't for a second think that a fan who is able and willing to attend in person is going to change their mind because there's a stream available. Those fans will always go to the games when they can.

    What this approach does is open up an option for those who can't physically make it to a game. 

    Disagree with this I'm afraid...a run of the mill saturday match against Ross County that's on the tv? I'll be on the couch most definitely

    Gillespie confirmed at Newcastle on a 3 year deal, fair play to him. No doubt getting his motherwell wage ten times over on that contract. You have to wonder how much football he is actually going to play in those 3 years though, could genuinely not play a single senior game in that time which at 28 would  be a massive step back coming into his prime years so to speak. 

    Good on him but.

    If you're Gillespie and at 28, probably not made much money in football, it's an absolutely life changing deal for him...hes got the luck that unfortunately Carson didnt

  9. Anyway, Hastie back...who'd have called that?

     

    Not ideal, given the circumstance of his departure and hes not played much in the last 12 months, but even with his boots on the wrong feet and a covid-mask over his eyes, hes still better than Seedorf, so it's a positive footballing move...I think its lucky for him though that there will be no fans in the ground for a while

    Dean Cornelius (looked good in last pre season in Belfast) Cole Starrs, Ross  McIver .or maybe bring up another Rotherham bench warmer. If Hastie does play well i'll also be quite happy.

    Dean is more central, Maciver will get his chance, Starrs is a bit away
