No brainer. Craig Samson. Couldve easy been 10 otherwise.

I think there were a lot of things wrong tonight. Too defensive from the off. Invited them on top of us and couldnt get up the park. I think we missed McHugh. He and Clay looked a good pairing together. Much as I love Las he was way off the pace tonight and I just dont think he has it anymore at that level. Too many individual errors defensively. All that said and done, Celtic have much better players than we have and on that form I dont think it would have mattered what we did they would have had too much for us. Sammie saved us from an absolute hiding.

Aye the odds have fair come in overight. Bet365 in to 12/1 from 20/1 Skybet in to 10/1 from 18/1 Looks like a few Dossers have taken advantage of the silly prices. I dont really expect us to win. But those odds still look generous. Here's hoping the bookies will be proved wrong tonight.

I see we are 20/1 on Bet365 to win in 90 mins. I know our record there is shite but thats an outrageous price. Obviously trying to entice me into jinxing our chances!

The delay in Moults op was supposedly due to a waiting list at the hospital so not sure how the LC fixtures can be blamed for the timing.

Im not Chalmers biggest fan and Im not sure that he has what it takes to have a future at the club, but I thought he did okay when he came on yesterday. He clearly looks more comfortable in midfield than at fullback. I suppose thats all relative to his previous poor performances.

Lots of good performances. Thought Cadden was excellent particularly in first half. McHugh and Clay looked pretty good together too. Went for Heneghan though. He looks better and better every game.

Made it more difficult than it needed to be but a good 3 points in the end. Thought we were very comfortable first half and more than deserved to be in front at half time. The goal was a lovely piece of play and a nice finish from Lionel who had his best game in a long time. 2nd half we got a great start with another well worked goal albeit the Killie defender appeared to gift Cadden possession. But for an abysmal finish from Lionel we should have been 3 up and home and hosed before we conceded, setting us up for a nervy last 15 mins. Lots to be pleased about but still room for improvement.

I like what they have done with the league cup. Having the final in the first half of the season is good. Not sure about having the euro teams seeded as theyve already had preferential treatment by being given a by unto the knockout stages. Definitely an argument for making it an unseeded draw from there. I dont like the challenge cup revamp. As stated above it was a chance for the lower league teams to play for some silverware. Should have remained so. The U20s already have a cup competition.

Some of the subtitles are a hoot!

Home game for me. See you all in the Brass and Granite about 1pm!

Always difficult to tell what a player has to offer with limited gametime but for what its worth my assessment would be MChugh>Lucas>Clay All similar types of player and given we've already signed McHugh Im not sure what Lucas or Clay would offer other than keeping Campbell out of the first team. Might be harsh but I think the money can be better spent.

Cadden by a distance....

Clay was average. No where near as good as McHugh or the brief glimpses Ive had of Lucas. Only one game but against lower league opposition didnt impress that much.

Anyone know the best pubs in Stranraer? Preferably between the railway station and the ground!

I would imagine that most if not all of it will go to paying Les back and getting us on a firm footing for entering into fan ownership.

Pretty much this ^^^^

Thats the one!

Pretty comfortable victory. Result was never really in any doubt and the performance was solid if unspectacular. Night and day compared to East Fife last year in what was a pretty similar type of fixture, away to lower league opposition on a plastic pitch. Great away day though. Carlisle was pretty decent as was The Shed in Annan. Felt like a wee bit of an adventure. Loving the Jacob Blyth song. Hope he gets a few starts as it could have mileage....

Marvin played well but Moult was MoM for me. He led the line superbly and his work rate was superb. Youd never have known he was carrying an injury. To last 90 m8ns and get 2 goals, cant ask any more than that.

Always thought Chalmers had the look of someone supremely lacking in confidence. Maybe not surprising given his injuries lack of gametime and the poor form we were in at start of the season. However, if he hasnt been able to impress the manager enough in training to get a start on front of Marvin then I think its fair to say his days are numbered. Anyone know when his contract is up?

Exactly this ^^^

Sounds from reading that, that he feels fans were too comfortable with him owning the club that they didnt need to step up. By transferring the shares he is changing that dynamic and basically challenging the fans to make it work by making fan ownership the only game in town. From some of the posts on here it might already be working.....

This is a pretty significant change of direction 14 months into a 5 year plan. I fear there is a lot more to this than meets the eye. Deeply concerning......
