Shields is complete mince and Hammy doesn't have a clue. This awful squad and weak mentality will see us relegated.

They'll hump us.

Yep, we need a whole new spine to the the team, which isn’t a problem easily solved in a January window.

Take it out of Burrows' wages over the next wee while. It was his fault for extending a duds contract against all common sense.

I never though I'd see the day where I found myself praying for Efford to return from injury to show Shields how to attack the right wing, beat a man, and cross the ball.

Shields is crap; he offers worse than nothing, but my concern is with Hammell as he keeps picking him.

Putting the formation chat aside, the bottom line is that the squad needs to be entirely turned over before we can start to properly set up to be effective in different games, and that won't happen in January. Hammy is a rookie manager and it is concerning that he doesn't seem to be learning from his mistakes, but he is still hamstrung by the utter shite he inherited. 10th place is the best we can hope for this season.

Can someone send Hammy a huge sign for Christmas that says ‘442 and get Shields to fuck’, please?

McGinn is injured.

Is this your source?

I can only hope he is more confident/competent off-camera, as his form on camera is uninspiring and oozes repetitive negativity, a bit like a shrinking violet. I sincerely hope he succeeds, however.

The only way we will be able to sign better players in January is by farming a lot of the dross out on loan or offloading them, and I note that Hammy suggested loaning players out in his recent interview. I don't imagine the cost of fixing the recent weather damage will help our transfer window war chest. We need Penney to re-sign, a new CB, new CM, and new attackers.

No matter the result, the performance will set the tone for what we should expect for the rest of the season, barring a few January moves/additions. I’ll be happy with 10th and a complete reset under Hammy for 23/24. That’s the best we can hope for.

VAR in the Scottish game is a pile of shite. It's like strapping a rocket to a faulty grenade in a futile attempt to 'improve' it. All it ends up doing is exacerbating the clusterfuck that is Scottish refereeing incompetence.

I was there. It was a complete windy shitemare. I was in crutches after breaking my ankle on the eve of the Millennium.

His short-sighted inflexibility has proven that he doesn't think.

I imagine the players will be feeling the pain and struggle of their nice wages as well.

Given our growing injury list comprising the better of our players and our generally shite squad, I see St Johnstone winning this game.

It was difficult to tell whether it was his ankle or knee from the camera angles, but it looked a bad one regardless.

Looked like a high impact ankle collision with Mooy. A sore one.

Our strike force is now Morris and Shields. Bloody hell.

It’s getting worse. Morris on for McKinstry.

He’ll still manage to contribute the square root of fuck all.

Sums him up recently.
