I don't think the formation is the big issue. Aberdeen and Rangers were both totally reliant on the number 9 scoring and when that dried up they went downhill. We were sharing the goals around but without any regular scorer you are always likely to regress. We needed a centre forward who could score AND Scott to kick on and we went on to sell Scott and brought in Ndjoli and Watt. Robinson hasn't signed a regular scorer in five transfer windows. It's a glaring flaw.

The inverted winger thing is utter stupidity at this point. Whoever was in charge of our transfer business in January. I'm sure we'll find out in an upcoming episode of the Longer Listen.....

Polworth at wing back is crazy.

He was always tracking back in his first spell. He would be our best player by a mile. We would only have got him if he left Ibrox with question marks over him but no chance of that now.

Refs will give some leniency for competing for the ball but stuff like kicking it away and trips are going to get pulled up. Long has been booked four times for dissent since December. He's a clown.

A good result in the circumstances. We have to take 3 points on Tuesday now.

Another goal for Murphy. He's ruining any chance of being at Fir Park next season. Cut it out Jamie!

Aye loads. Not idiots that constantly get booked for dissent or guys that have been fans for two minutes that take a tantrum at any criticism of the team though.

Long has an absolutely stinking attitude. I can't wait to see the back of him.

Arrons at LWB today? Watt and Long should cause then problems.

There have been streams when it's been on Alba. The weather has mental today. Gale force winds with spells of hailstones. We will have to grind it out.

I'd like to see us ditch the inverted wingers in this game. I don't think we are getting any benefit from it and it is adding a degree of difficulty for guys who need to focus on the basics. It might revive Hylton who won't need to stop and reset all the time and although Ilic has looked dire he has only played on the right which he is obviously not cut out for. Accies are on form at the moment without getting great results. They will be confident they can beat us after the respective performances before NY.

Just for weakening the squad in January when we were aiming for Europe and a good cup run. Why? Having to play guys like Manzinga and MacIver is criminal.

The January window killed us. Thank you Burrows.

He's got a deal for next season! Too risky to offer Hastie a contract but that joke gets one.

I think with Bowman he hadn't really done enough to justify a new contract so it was better to part ways. The only problem is that Robinson and Burrows forgot they were meant to replace him so we are up shit creek. He definitely improved during his time here so I wouldn't rule out that he has stepped up another level since leaving.

As well as Murphy scoring big Hutchy got the winner away to Preston, Jutkiewicz scored against Brentford and Bowman scored the winner in 3-2 win for Exeter.

We are playing Accies away next Saturday. Cup quarter is in two weeks.

I've got the feeling that we will put more effort into getting the Cup game on.

Watching another game in a storm would have been miserable. Good decision.

It probably boosted our support at Dundee.

Anyone can get injured at any time. Saying that Scott would be injured if he was still at Fir Park makes no sense though. I wonder what Ndjoli's injury is?

I'm mixed up because I'm looking at Soccerbase and they have his card on the first day as a yellow but it was upgraded to a red. So last night was his 6th yellow and he'll miss the Ross County game along with Donnelly.

I think Carroll is suspended for this. Going 3-5-2 for a home game against St Mirren would not be a positive step. We don't have the wide players for it.

The wheels are well and truly coming off. Our January business was a disaster.
