Mad Dog

I think that saying he's been dreadful is overstating it a wee bit. He's been left completely exposed by a poor defence way more than he was last season. His distribution has deteriorated markedly though, his pinpoint passing was a real feature when he arrived on loan.

I'd pencil in Oxborough for league cup games next season to give him first team experience. This season the only change that I'd make in goal is giving the armband to an outfielder and let Kelly focus on his own performances.

You think he's hot? Not sure that needs to be part of the recruitment process.

PJ Morrison has apparently made a massive blunder in scoring an own goal and giving Darvel hope of getting back in the game. 2-1 Falkirk at the mo'.

Yeah, I'd understand if Johnston had gone off too but he was fine.

That's us defaulted the game then surely?

This is the kind of signing to get excited about!

I was thinking 4-4-2 as well but with Danzaki instead of Spittal as he's much more mobile and possibly Obika instead of KvV. The old school little and large pairing upfront is something that is worth a try.

Looking at the other games this weekend there is a chance that our relegation rivals will all drop points. We need to hope that our marginally better away form gives us a chance tomorrow.

Does he also need international clearance as he's transferring in from America?

Aberdeen desperately need a win. Perhaps our surrender monkeys can assist them.

Do we know for sure if Danzaki has international clearance yet?

I was thinking that it looks like three at the back with what we have available.

Hard to forget him: scored Celtic's last goal in their 7-0 win against us.

And this is why our kids should always stay on and play a couple of years in the first team before moving on.

So you're suggesting that Tony Watt will lead all of our players out of the club? As bizarre as your example seems, that only reinforces my point that he has leadership skills. Or is it that he's a rat? But then who led him to Dundee United? He went on his own.

What a peculiar comparison to make.

That's my preferred shape too as O'Donnell has always been better attacking than defending, would suit Max as well. Would cut down the need for Kelly to punt it aimlessly as we could build from the back instead. The main concern is that central midfield still looks weak as Goss can't tackle.

Folk are always complaining that there are no leaders in this squad, well Tony Watt would be that kind of player.

Ah, so "Lego heed" was football chat. That'll be where I went wrong, struggling to keep up with these new, elite coaching methods.

Celtic are looking to punt Yosuke Ideguchi and he's a central midfielder. Never seen him play but could be an improvement on what we already have. Maybe loan him in until the end of the season?

I just don't think that we have a large enough fanbase unfortunately. The likes of Hearts could make it work much more easily than ourselves.

It's a points-based system to establish the level of the footballers in question so that, in theory, only high quality non-E.U. footballers are signed. Basically, if we're signing a second tier Japanese with no full international caps and no age group caps the argument will be that we can sign someone else of a similar standard within the U.K.
