To early to tell with Ward & Elliot. Maswanhise has pace, but his final ball can let him down. Still time for him to develop. Stama chasing shadows again today. He needs someone up beside him, and or wingers who can cross a ball. Passing from the back or hoof ball to nobody upfront. Interesting choice!? Best formation questionable. Really?? after our first pre season game with a new manager finding out about his players!! Its all well that we know our squad weaknesses, but weve watched them enough over time. The manager is still learning on who can do what. Patience. Pre season is all about fitness and trying things.

Think today just confirmed what we knew about certain individuals. Balmer, O'Donnell, Wilson should not be near the first team. Gordon is not a ball passing defender. We need an enforcer in the middle of the park, and more pace up front.

Odonnell doing his usual and turning his back, and Balmer playing everyone onside with his lack of positional sense. Hey ho, only a pre season.

Given its our first game of the pre season under a new manager against a quality team, we have done ok, especially in that heat. We could have battered a non league team and learned nothing. Playing against this mob should be a good schooling. Its obvious we need reinforcements up front, with pace. Wilson at left back is still questionable it seems.

Staff come and go at our football club. Some sooner than we would have liked. We go on as always. Modern football is a farce.

We owe county. Casey needs to mark White. As odonnell and seddon won't compete with him.

It was an easier 2nd half for him. As killies threat disappeared and he did not have to defend, especially in the air. He almost got caught out with another long ball over the top of him tho. He seems to struggle to read the game and has poor positional sense. To his credit it was a fine cross for the goal. He's fine as a squad player, but not a starter next season please.

Armstrong got some decent service for a change which helped. He offers something, but maybe there is better out there. Watt would be ok as a 10 or attacker wide left. But we have Maswanhise for that, tho does not work as hard as Watt. AP did score goals, but suffered from lack of service.

That's some penalty county got to relegate st johnstone. Just had to be var that decided the relegation battle outcome.

We improved with two up front and a proper central attacker. Wilson at left wing back won't do. Constantly playing safe and passing back to Seddon. Without Slattery we would struggle to create.

Slattery by a mile.

County need to win. Will our players be in holiday mode??

Draw for killie and a win for us will get us 7th.

County now lost 7 or 8 games in a row now. If we beat them, and st johnstone win, county would go down.

Armstrong being a better center forward than Watt. Fancy football does work sometimes.

SLATTERY TO Good for us on this form.

Much better. A proper cross and good header.

Maswanhise for Wilson to give us back our man advantage.

We need a couple of wingers.

Lol

Wilson pass back safety first. Swap him with seddon

What a miss.

Seddon is more of a threat on left than Wilson, who always seems scared to push up.

At least a striker tho.

Paton hooked again? Bit harsh if he has.
