Good solid start to the season. Hopefully Pearson is alright.

Team pretty much as expected, wasn't sure about Fletch or Moult. Watt must have picked up an injury.

Missed the Celtic game but should be sorted now.

I think McManus will have had a fair influence in the Ripley signing. Going back a couple of years, I think he played a part in Hollis being selected over Neilsen. Hopefully it proves to be a good signing. Clearly he was down our pecking order of targets but he looks to be a big unit of a boy.

Certainly not a Rangers bound Allan. If he does depart elsewhere, McGeough would be his natural replacement, who again will incur a similar transfer fee to McGinn.

Good luck to Moore. He needs a right good run of games to try and reignite his career.

McGinn to Hibs seemingly a done deal. At a time where we're open to modest transfer fees, I wonder if we expressed an interest.

The Sun now covering the Jackson Irvine link according to the bbc gossip page. I'm hoping there is something in this.

I suspect we're holding out for superior quality. As Weeyin alludes to, there should be a number of reserve keepers in England looking for a move by the end of August. Twardzik is the best keeper we've had over the past 2 seasons. Happy for him to be no.1 for at least another month.

The Irish press linked us with Bolger (and Towell to an extent) at the beginning of the summer.

Lawson has had to go part time due to injuries. Maybe Vigurs is in the same boat.

If we bring in a midfielder, I'd play all 3 in Inverness with Pearson out to the left a touch. Inverness have over powered and outplayed us many times in recent years. This is a real tough start for us but impossible to predict a result at this time of year.

Preston were always going to be a tough test. Good to hear that Moult got off the mark. Interested to hear how Chalmers is looking. Seems to be getting a fair bit of game time, predominately in midfield.

Is McFadden still training with us just now?

Only had the game on in the background but I clocked this too. Baraclough has previously stated that he's already planning for the January window. Burrows has previously tweeted that we're looking at players outwith the UK. It may be the case that we have our eye on 1 or 2 from the summer leagues across Europe.

It's white. Dan was wearing it against Bradford.

New away top arrived today. Absolutely love it. Full credit to those involved in selecting the design.

Long has plenty 1st team experience before arriving. Can't see us looking to bring in a 19/20 year old keeper unless we are really scrambling for options.

Delighted with the Skippy news. Fantastic business from the club.

Not ruled out as such. The new Sheffield United manager has gave everyone a clean slate while his predecessor had seemingly ok'd a return to Motherwell. Fair chance he'll end up going out on loan next month.

He was called up after Scott Bain pulled out injured in June. Probably one of few options not on holiday. Samson is mediocre at best, similar level to Meldrum. Pretty confident the club are setting their sights a little higher.

Very good goal from Luke Watt. Good to hear that Cadden's absence up until now was down to injury.

Kinda regretted not going when I seen the starting lineup as I'd like to have seen Watt and Fletcher in particular. Good news that Marvin is back and Cadden is now making the bench.

Depressing if that proves to be the case. While not sure about Long, I'd rather stick with him.

Baraclough on radio hoping for Skippy decision in next 48 hours.
