Well we’ve signed someone but I can’t make out who it is with the Twitter page. I wished they’d just fkn tell us!! I find that signing in darkness annoying

Was ODonnell captain yesterday? Have I missed that he’s taken over the captaincy from McGinn? he’s been doing really well, long may it continue. In the words of yogi hughes “he’s a gid big honest laddie.”

I think the powers at be have did well with the JBA appointment, I know it’s early but I get a better vibe from him that he’s here for the long haul than I did with Wimmer. I liked Wimmer, he seemed a genuinely good guy but I’m not sure whether it was his grasp of English or demeanour but I never felt he looked that comfortable here. JBA looks comfortable, he’s clearly got ambition to do well here, his teams play nice football, his English is phenomenally good, he talks up the support and overall I don’t see any negatives from him so far. Would we have taken over 1000 fans to Perth yesterday under Kettlewell……. That’s a NO!!

McInnes already showing signs of playing like a stock sample anti football McInnes team and their natives are getting restless. 1-0 Motherwell

3 players from our academy on at the final whistle today and another excellent talent with Forrest on the bench. I think this is all very positive

We never get home games!! Could be worse but it could have been better uglies get their decent draws yet again. Unreal

Did you see Bailey Rice at that Alloa goal? Pathetic…. if that’s an example of his work, no thanks.

I thought ODonnell did well again but Just was exceptional, ran out of steam in ET but I thought he was brilliant today.

We can pick holes in this performance but at the end of the day we were playing the best team in the championship at home and we won. Give me this as oppose to our last game in the cup up there all day long. bring on the quarters

Get in Faddy!!!! He’s been quieter today but a great finish

Just should have done better there, Odonnell did well getting up there but if you watch AP he didn’t even give him an option for a cut back, standing static behind the defender. the longer this goes on the more likely we are to lose a goal

The Players look knackered

To be fair they do agree with me that Just has been the best player in the park

Osong, shown enough in 2 mins to look like he’ll be useful

He’s just did that again, another half chance and a terrible touch. he’s been rotten today. He’s not a player I dislike either but he’s been well off it today.

Great play from Just, nice dunk through to AP who once again has a bad touch

There’s actually decent balls at times whipped in, there was one 2 mins ago where AP should have been in there in front of the defender. We had a few in the first half. We need a striker as I don’t think AP is the guy we need. His movement is always away from the goal.

AP’s really slow, I just don’t think he suits the way we play. We need him mobile and making space for himself. Too often he’s standing static next to a defender

How the fk did he clear that off the line? That was lucky

Wee Just is working his ar5e off in there, he’s doing well.

Minutes applause for sammy Johnson before the game. I hadn’t realised he was max johnsons uncle

My main gripe is that the central midfield is so important in this new set up and he’s going to miss games, it’s disruptive. And has he really been good when he’s played for Rangers? The support I know havnt been that impressed? He did quite well in a European game and he started a cup game against a lower league side and he was hooked at half time? i’m not convinced with youngsters from rangers anyway, I think they are cursed with a “I’ve made it already” attitude. Lowry went out on loan and was rotten, the boy Devine wasn’t great. I just don’t think they get good habits at rangers. Similar to youngsters at Celtic. Maybe that’s why they have such an appalling record at bringing in youths Anyway, I doubt it’ll happen!!

Turnbull is a definite no go, I think he’ll be at Cardiff for another 2 years and see out his contract. Crazy money involved down there. as for Rice, even if he does come and does well, he’d need removed any time we played Rangers, I just think it screws up team dynamics when we get a loanee from SPFL teams. Not just for those weeks he’s not allowed to play but a week or so after it when he gets back in the team. If we could sign him permanently great, I’d take him then but is he the type to take a drop in pay To kick start his career? I’m not so sure.

Vietnam flashbacks!!!!!! Gardiner v Hearts 😢 ……. And Stevie Woods was a terrible keeper, only goalie I ever saw who made the goals look bigger for a striker…. but apparently a good coach and a decent guy.

Good to see our forward options increasing
