It would be great and not impossible to pick something up in the first home game leading into the game at Dens. -

I actually think the timing of the Rangers at home works for us. We need to get home form back on track and I think our 3 home results will be absolutely decisive on where we finish. We pulled off an out of nowhere performance vs Celtic last season at home and I cant see why we cant again if we rise to it. I get the fear of Rugby Park vibes for the away game at Dundee, where the big occasion gets to us. Hearts and Killie at home, I feel we have to come away from both with points. -

Has he not had something like 15/16 clean sheets? Thats a decent return for a goalkeeper and the season isnt finished yet. -

I think at the time when he signed for us, he had offers from clubs in Europe. I'm sure one day soon he would like to return to Cyprus and settle with his family. -

I'm just going on the basis that Main was offered less when a new deal was on the table as it was outside the wage structure. The club are looking at reducing the wage cap. They pushed the boat out for Gogic. I'm not saying he's not worth his wage, i'm just going by what has happened previously and from what ive heard. -

He's apparently our highest earner. I can't see us going all out to pay him more than what he's currently on. Gogic himself may only be willing to stay if we make europe also. Imo he would be offered a lesser contract just like Main was on reduced terms. -

Fun fact. He's the stepdad of St Mirren supporting DJ Ewan McVicar. -
St Mirren v Aberflaps 02/03/24

What a bizarre take on it. Having a go at the player for trying to win the ball whilst we were chasing the game. If anything he should more determination than Devlin to win the ball. -

We are there on merit, though I guess its when you put it into perspective the bigger clubs below us such as Hibs, Aberdeen with more resources. Apart from those two, there isn't a huge difference between the rest apart from possibly Livingston. -

Imo there was a shift in mentality as soon as SMISA took over in 2016. It's been progress each year since then and fromwithin, we are not accepting to being a bottom 3/4 club regardless of the budgets other clubs have. Tony Fitz publicly came out and believed we should have been aiming higher and he got laughed off for it. We have put more at it towards our budget over the last couple of years and we have added more home fans to our gates most notably post covid when all was meant to be doom and gloom. -

I think it's only natural he has been linked. Robbo alongside McInness have done tremendous on similar budgets lower than that of some of the teams around us. They have tried this approach already with Goodwin and it failed. They then employed from within and it failed and they have tried the tested veteran in Warnock and it has failed. I can see them either appointing a left field option from overseas or look at what is available down south within their budget. Gary Monk who was just appointed Cambridge manager wouldn't have been a bad shout imo. -

IF we were awarded it and IF we scored it at the timing of the incident, it could have well had a brighter outcome going in level at half time and chasing a winner second half. -

Was that during the game, half time or post match? I personally didnt think the shirt pull was a pen at all. Looking back at the replays it's a definite hand then head. They said during the game that the incident that VAR monitored was the pull in the box and they must not have looked beyond that, though the fact his arm was up next to his head, surely that moment should have been caught when they were trimming down the replay?
