Thought it rang a bell, so just checked - Jamie McGowan was actually English.

Fair enough. I'm sure none of us are really bothered who their best player was, but if all he did was score a tap in, that still makes him far more effective than any of our front players.

Nobody's claiming he's Mo Salah, but you're obsessing over his goals. Are you honestly saying you thought he wasn't bringing a lot more to the team before he left, or that you can't see how clueless we're looking without him?

1. Who else would you give it to? 2. To rub our faces in it.

Watt was winning every award going for us, long before his goal scoring blip. Fundamentally pish? Utter pish.

Anyone who sees any positives in that performance needs to take their eyeballs out and polish them.

Is that the defence or prosecution's argument?

Aye, we're playing some great stuff.

They are utter shite. And they're beating us.

Get Ojala tae fuck off that park.

* All attack out

Aberdeen and Dundee games called off.

Proof. Aye.

Aye, like I said, I wouldn't fancy him either, especially at that age. I know it wasn't yourself who mentioned the number of clubs he's had being a sure sign we shouldn't touch him, but most of the guys we have up front could give him a run for his money on that score, and it's likely any replacement will be the same.

I wouldn't fancy him, but if we're bringing in a forward player with any experience, they're probably gonnae have a long list of clubs on their CV. The ones who don't move around much tend to be far more prolific/better all round players, and way out of our league.

One more than Watt, two ahead of Van Veen, though Woolery ties on twelve. Shields has seven in six years, so he may yet beat the lot of them.

Does Valakari rate him?

If there's no financial gain for us, you'd think the only sensible option is to hang onto Watt till the end of the season. But I suppose there are other issues to take into account. Players obviously have their pals at a club, and if someone's hanging around, not getting a game as a 'punishment', there's the potential for unrest among the squad. Having said that, I have no idea how keen Watt is to get away, what his attitude is like, or if Alexander wants to make an example of him, as he did with Gallagher in the end.

Does football exist in a vacuum utterly devoid of laws?

There's hours of fun available for anybody who fancies reading about the various definitions of 'pandemic' and how the scientific community cannae agree on what constitutes one, for numerous really, really fascinating reasons.

I'll be a total fanny - a pandemic doesn't need to be global, just across a large geographical area.

steelboy hates the Scottish Government and Nicola Sturgeon in particular. You can argue the toss over other venues remaining open - for now - but when there are around 30 games postponed in the English leagues due to Covid outbreaks among players, this was inevitable.

Kilmarnock, Dundee Utd and Raith Rovers have all beaten Rangers or Celtic in Finals since 91. Dundee Utd, St Mirren, Inverness, Ross County and St Johnstone have all beaten them in Semi or Quarter Finals on the way to winning cups. I'm no seeing much luck there.

He brought them back after they had officially left in the summer, so I think we have to count them - unless we blame McLeish for Lawleff's return. I'm not saying I wouldn't have brought them back too, nor do I think it's easy to get rid of all the dead wood, but it's his job to make it work. We'll see how it pans out, but I don't agree with his assessment of how well we've been playing.

I count 6 - Kelly, Solholm Johansen, Slattery, Goss, Roberts, Shields. Which of those aren't his signings? You also have to take into account the players he chose to keep here, rather than punt.
