Another reason it was important to stay up for this season.

Robinson said Cadden would net us 600k or more if he walked at the end of his contract. Anybody wants him mid contract will need to offer more than that. While it's great for us, of course, it's fees like this that make it close to impossible for us to sign Scottish players over the age of 16 or 17.

Auto-correct leaks more secrets than Trump's White House.

I have no problem with players wanting the best deals they can get for themselves. I do have less sympathy, however, with players who negotiate a 2 or 3 year contract and then hand in transfer requests as if the contract didn't exist. Contracts work both way and you can imagine what Marvin would be saying if Oxford had turned around and said "actually, we've decided we don't want to pay you this season". Cake-and-eat-it Syndrome. Bottom line, however, is I hope he leaves for 4 million.

"Played decently against Rangers. Deserved a point!!" "We're on a cup run. Great performance with 10 men!!" "This is our worst performance for years!!" Two league games into the season with 9 new players, our star striker unfit and key players out injured - playing against a team that's been top 6 for the last few seasons. So it's time for the, oh so predictable, meltdown. The more I read on here, the more I think social media has turned reasonable people into bipolar extremists fueled by a massive sense of entitlement and unrealistic expectations. No place for reasoned argument, nuance or perspective. I'll leave the mouth foamers to it, while I put my feet up and enjoy the sunshine with a beer. See you all next time. Or maybe not.

Or maybe a more conventional 4-4-2. Nice to have options, though, so we can rest our injured players.

That's what I'll likely end up doing. While it's easy enough to avoid the result beforehand, it's the willpower that I sometimes lack.

Jay posted about the distillery trip on the 25th July. I'm pretty sure the initial twitter announcement was made around that same date as I remember hearing about it before I read Jay's post. Hope everyone enjoys the drams and the game.

Recording of the full game being broadcast by Alba shortly after the match is finished. I'm in two minds as to whether I should avoid the result and watch it fresh, or know what I'm letting myself in for. Maybe I'll split the difference and only check the half time score.

Extra kudos for that given he had two midfielders and Zak Jules to work with.

He's done what he said he would do as far as refreshing the squad, and so far has them playing the way he says he likes to play. Early days yet, but high marks so far. A point or three tomorrow will go a long way to getting our league campaign kick started.

He seems to have been pish everywhere he's played recently. Didn't exactly set Dens Park alight with his contribution. Guys like Moult and McHugh managed to perform in our weaker teams.

Ditto. Best bit of business we did in recent times was to sell him when we did. He's been on a downward spiral since.

I received a couple of emails, saw the posts on here and multiple tweets. Not sure what else could have been done. And I say that as someone who has often complained about the Society's lack of communication.

Mostly, I think, because he gets asked the same question at every press conference. He's said about 50 times he's looking to bring in a bit of pace up front, so it's not exactly a secret. However, he's not going to tell the media who his targets are or the progress of any potential deals.

This is going to be a difficult game. Be happy if we take a point.

I think Kipré' was one of those deals where he wanted to re-establish himself and move on if it worked out.

I'm just waiting for the "why did we only sign him for one year?"complaints.

Be looking to recreate his glory days at Accies. Seriously, though - seems like a good signing.

Robinson said he saw the replay and thinks it was definitely a penalty, but not a red card.

It's match fitness I'm talking about. And that's all about game time.

The dilemma with Moult is he's obviously a few weeks behind the rest after his surgery, and needs game time. So do we give him 30 minutes here or there to get him up to speed or persevere with 80+ minutes every week.

If this did get up and running, I imagine fees would just cover the costs. If you want to contribute to the club, however, the Well Society is the way to go.

I just meant that people saying it's "possible" doesn't mean it's true.

It's possible they offered me higher wages than Moult.
