I could only think that he expected County to park the bus and let him be more attacking. But maybe he has other plans for him.

Did he bring Welsh with him?

Aye, there's no such thing as a poor cup win.

5 million + Kobbie Mainoo

I see we did pass the 5,000 mark for crowd. 5,547 the official attendance and I think they said 147 away fans.

I went for the keeper. Didn't have much to do, but made a couple of important saves to keep our clean sheet record intact and avoid any extra time shenanigans.

Every time I've seen us win the cup we start off with a 1 - 0 victory.

The joy of cup. Blood and thunder, end to end excitement as two teams go all out to advance to the next round. And there was this game too. Take your pick...

And keep an eye on his title and cup rivals.

Every time I watch an opposing keeper hit a long ball to our defenders now I think "why would you want to do that?"

We have - exactly what our game was needing.

7 million.

First goal incoming as soon as JT times his run beyond the offside trap.

Dunfermline away is a tougher game, but every cup tie needs our full attention. Have no reason to believe we'll be anything but well prepared.

Looks like a decent line up to me. Only major surprise is Ross getting a starting slot, but seems low risk given we'll have 75% possession. At the start of the season I thought Connelly was the most comfortable of all 3 keepers with the ball at his feet - although Ward has obviously improved since then. I expect Said and Sparrow to be pulling them wide to try and create spaces between the buses parked at the back.

Fans are fans. We had posters on here who claimed Slattery wasn't good enough for us during his first couple of seasons.

I'd say the opposite. Too many poor decisions due to "letter of the law" rather than "spirit of the game". The handball rules are a great example of this where attempting to remove subjectivity has made them a complete joke. I agree we need more consistency and better referees. I'd prefer it, however, if we just let them do their job and ditch VAR.

Slightly off topic, but I'd much rather see Camelon Juniors vs Elgin City or Spartans vs ICT being shown tonight than Annan Athletic parking a bus at Ibrox.

It would be great if every signing worked out. It would also make us the only club in the history of football where that happened, but it would be great.

I'd have struggled to tell you what game it was, but seems it was the Alloa cup tie in Jan 2024.

I must have missed that day

I'm not even sure O'Neill wanted him back. From his comments, it sounded like the higher-ups wanted him back so they could assess their options.

I think Slats might be the one to leave. He'll have been with us for 5 years in the summer and if he is looking to play elsewhere, he's at the right age for a move. Be delighted if he stayed, though.
