We will still need to play well to get anything no matter that result tonight but we must go into with a real intention of having a go as there will be opportunities for us with the way there defence is right now.lose to us and i think lennon will be a goner,which would be some laugh.

As long as we go out next week and give it a real go,that's all we can ask and see where it gets us,do that and we have a chance of getting something,too many home games against the old firm lately we have just let drift by without offering much.

I was 50/50 on us keeping watt on for this season and now he's rapidly became one of our most important players,it looked like he had put the work in over the lockdown period and it's really paying off,he looks in great shape.our club has this nack of feeling like home that's able to get the best out of players that have maybe struggle elsewhere,hopefully were starting to see that with watt.if he keeps these performances up then we should be readying a new contract by the end of the year.im glad we're back playing 433,i think there's a lot of potential in the front 3 that started yesterday and add in how well maguire has done since he came in and o'hara since dropping back,we look a lot more comfortable than earlier in the season and the fact that we aren't making so many daft mistakes at the back has obviously helped.

Giving our luck with injuries lately,signing a goalie was a must for me,shame we have had to spend money on another but needs must.

Agreed,it's a waste of time playing long out wide as he's just not interested,both watt and cole worked there socks of yesterday while long went through the motions,the only thing he put any effort into was chopping down the county player on the touch line.

I said the same after the st johnstone game i think it was,that mcginley was just needing some time to show what he could offer,he played really well today and if we can have a full back that puts crosses in like that one today,then that's always a big plus.

Early days but we might again be in the position of having 2 good goalkeepers fighting it out,chapman looks like he will be a solid signing,hopefully trevors injury isn't to serious.

That'll do nicely,a good solid performance all round.that was mcginleys best game for us by a mile,hopefully there's more to come,fair dos to o'hara he looked really composed at the back and as for watt,he was outstanding,he's fast becoming one of our most important players.

Some ball in from mcginley that

I thought the stream for the st johnstone was bad but this has been farcical,piss poor service.

I really hope we have some contingencies in place if campbell was to leave,i would like to see us sign a midfielder that's comfortable on the ball and that can make us play from the middle of the park and that's before any thoughts on wee alan leaving,a winger would be nice to but i suspect if we go back to the 3 up front then cole will play left side.

I just don't get this signing either,strange was my first thought too.who knows what the plan is for our forward line for the rest of the season,it just seems all rather messy.robinson has to get it right or we will be in for a struggle all season.

Hylton to ross county,it was clear at the start of the season that he wasn't in the managers plans,i don't particularly rate him but i would rather him over seedorf or Hastie.

I still think mcginley needs a run of games to see exactly what he might offer us,lamie on the other hand has been shite,sadly i can see him being one of they players the manager picks no matter how bad they are.

I'm not a fan either,i don't think he will bring anything different to what we already have,surely if we're interested in bringing him back we must be looking at getting one or two out the door,our forward line is already bloated with to many not making any sort of contribution.

Campbell would be ideal for the english championship,other than a bigger wage going to give would be a total sideways move,he's a stand out midfielder in our league and when he moves on it should be to a higher level.

Agreed,it would have benefitted both parties if maguire had moved on,giving him a new deal and 2 years at that,seemed strange but he must be rated enough but yet he's hardly seen.we have 4 games coming up against teams we really needing to be taking points from,i would be happy enough if maguire got a decent amount of playing time in they games but that's mainly down to the dross that's been playing and not because i expect him to be an answer to our problems.like i said earlier in this thread,if maguire is in the managers plans then get him in the team and not just bring him on as a substitute when other players have already let us down.

The guy is an absolute nightmare,i didn't think we could get any lower than tony streaker,how wrong was i.

We can talk about them having better players and budgets all day long but the reality is we are paying guys a decent wage and for that the least you expect is to compete and show some pride an professionalism and there's been none of that today,there's far to many jokers in our squad the now,we need to be actively looking to get some out the door,get agents told there players are no longer required and do what's needed to move them on,no more nicey nicey,this squad has relegation candidates all over,none of the basics of football are being shown.

Our options from the bench are embarrassing,you just know that none of them will have any impct

Maguire wouldn't be any worse than some of the imposters that start every week,either give the boy a chance from the start or not at all,this bringing him on when others have already fucked the game for us is nonsense.

I totally agree with the other points you make but i actually think letting hartley and tait go was the right decision,we probably had as good as we were going to get out them,it's been our recruitment over the summer that's been the problem,not one signing looks like they have anything to offer an added to some of the dross that's already here then we really are in trouble.

How many times do our full backs get caught out with the ball in behind them,lamie has zero positional awareness and his attempt at getting back was embarrassing,he's simply not good enough for this level.

Joke of a penalty,the ref smiling after he gave it sums it all up.

Hopefully big bevis can come back in and have a good game as none of the rest of our defenders can be trusted,i have visions of lamie giving away a penalty.sit back and let the game drift by and we will get battered,best chance we have is to have a go and see where that gets us.
