Very much a game of two halves yesterday, but the mention of our win being undeserved are way off the mark. Thought we were so dominant in that second half that it was deserved. Paton completely changed the game and he, along with SK, deserve the credit for those 3pts. Not that I think anyone needed yesterday to show it, but we cannot have Bair as a starter or we are in bother. He is simply not good enough at this level. I fully expect that we will have atleast 1 more striker signed up before the deadline.

Mandron is one of the least talented footballers that I’ve ever seen at Fir Park. Someone described him as a footballer with 4 different people in charge of his limbs. Couldn’t believe it when St Mirren signed him.

Heard this rumour. I’m not convinced it’s a good signing. Assuming he will be on a decent wage and not sure he will contribute enough to justify it.

Why such negativity? The title is pretty much in the bag!

I used to live in Bangalore and he was playing out there at the time. He was seen as one of their best players, but the standard was rotten and they were one of the better sides.

Really big month or so coming up, which will give us an idea on the likelihood of us avoiding the drop. Whilst Hammell is hardly going to come out and say that we will be bringing in a coach load of new players in January, the noises about 1 or 2 is concerning. Moult and Aarons are both away back to their respective clubs, so I would expect as a minimum that they are replaced. Would be good to offload Morris back down the road, but can’t see him having a long list of interested clubs. I’m not convinced we are going to be able to get the quality that is needed. The team are weak both physically and mentally. There is no way that this lot come out on top in a relegation battle, they will shit the bed! Alexander is still to blame for this shambles of a squad, but Hammells inexperience is showing badly. Make or break next 5 months!

Jake Hastie. Was thrown in by Robinson in Jan 2019 and he had a ridiculous purple patch of a couple of months. Was out of contract in the summer and got a move to Rangers. Can’t blame him for jumping at it as it turns out he isn’t actually very good. Dont think he ever played a competitive match for Rangers and has had mediocre to dugshit loan spells at Rotherham, back to Motherwell, Partick and Linfield. Now plying his trade as a regular unused sub at Hartlepool. Suspect he will be punted from there soon enough.

Yeah I feel we will be lucky to get nil and Aberdeen will score as many as they fancy. One for the handicap coupon next weekend.

Yeah, I recall him hitting the bar with a free kick with probably his first touch. I recall him playing a handful of matches and offering next to nothing, so 10 wouldn’t be unlikely.

I would take Utds potential opponents over ours. All very accessible ties, which is probably my preference as it’s unlikely that we will progress.

Kazakhstan looks a no go, unless you go on some sort of club charter. Looking at over £1k for flights and that is a 3 stop/25hr+ effort. There are a few options of 2 stops and less time, but I would rather spend the £2.5k on something else… Latvia/Macedonia are both reasonably accessible and gives us the best chance of progression. Istanbul/Prague both straight forward travel wise, but would be almost certain defeat! Plenty of time to come up with some travel options after the draw.

Agreed. Don’t get the love for him. Imposter

Best burger I’ve ever had. Heading over for New Year so planning a visit!

I was regretting the decision to head to the game when I seen the team announced at 1:45pm. Tried to persuade my two mates to sack going and spend the day in the Aberdeen boozers instead. Delighted to be voted 2-1 in favour of going to the game. Thought Aberdeen completely bossed the first half and were well on top. Felt only a matter of time before they created the right chance to take the lead. Maguire was lucky to stay on the pitch, but I thought Robertson was dreadful for the full match for both sides. Some strange calls and struggled to let the game flow. We took both our goals well and the delivery from Goss for both was excellent. Defending from Aberdeen was shocking, with Bates at fault for the first and Brown for the second. KVV had acres of space for both goals. Aberdeen were chucking aimless balls into the box, which completely played into our hands and with the exception of the Kelly save, I don’t think there were many more decent chances. All in all, felt a reasonably comfortable end to the match. I thought Lamie was brilliant when he came on. A few decent blocks/tackles and the obvious assist. He did have a tug at the Aberdeen forward off the ball for a pen and would have been claiming for it had it been at the other end. Not seen it mentioned, but something doesn’t seem right with Carroll at the moment. Possibly in a bit of a huff due to his lack of playing time, but he went straight down the tunnel at FT with the rest of the players and staff over at the ‘Well fans. Could be reading too much into it. Tremendous 3 points and badly needed!

Booked for January. Going to be stupidly cold, but going to go for it.
