Yes. Or see if Marc McNulty wants a contract until January to market himself.
Would go for this 100%

Who would you have signed? And you're not allowed to use the words Kane or Hester.
Absolutely not Hester, never thought he was anyway near championship quality, he is League one at best, would have hard at Hearts for Euan Henderson, tbh

Surely Paterson needs a loan too for the guys development
Absolutely

I can’t see anything happening but would be good to have proved wrong, even a ‘punt’ of a loan striker until January surely worth pursuing over absolutely zero
It is inconceivable to me, that we cannot go to January with the strikers we have, if we do and we are bottom, then blame lies squarely at the door of the manager

If I recall correctly, did Sir Bobby Linn not play up front as a centre forward for a couple of matches several years ago due to the squad being depleted? Don’t think it proved to be much of a success - but I would be tempted to give Linn a free role up front on Saturday- very few options, so perhaps worth a throw of the dice ?
Apologies if I am talking nonsense- just looking at all options until the suspended and injured players return and we sign a couple of strikers.
Bobby played upfront against us, in his last season for East Fife, didn't suit him at all

Some of these QBs are dreadful

Have you used your free Saturday to dabble with acid today?
Tbh, with no game, had to fill the time somehow

Am I missing something? We haul him out of the Lowland League, he commits to play for us, he does well, he works his ticket and gets out of the deal. Forgive me if I don’t get all misty eyed.I kinda think someone, would have taken a punt on him at the time, but not a championship team, like us, so with that in mind, does well, appears to quite happily sign two year deal, then agitates for a move, bad show from him, I, also will not get misty eyed over this

I don’t know what’s worse now, the unending Nicky Low chat on P&B or the unending Queen coverage everywhere else.
Oddly enough, it's no compulsory viewing, either of them

No ToB and or Scotty Allan, no Mikey McKenna and Nicky Low will no doubt be nowhere to be seen
Gaston
Oakley
Little
Hammy
Hancock
Tait
Jacobs
StewartHilson
Linn
Shanks
No doubt Fosu will play though DC seems to love him. That teams very suspicious but we’ve got absolutely f**k all else.
I’d probably play Gold if he was fit and the only boy we’ve got worth putting on off the bench is Dylan Paterson. Grim
Don’t mind this, tbh

Now that we are stuck with the harbour end as the home end why do our players warm up at the other end. Dug outs signify home and away ends surely.
Yes

That looks like an absolutely stonewall red card for Scott Allan. Possibly lucky the second one wasn’t a straight red.
To be fair, think it was obvious what the ref was about to do, if it was just a yellow, he would have flashed it quickly

Think he has built up enough good will to survive one relegation
Although he should not be immune to criticism, the current state of the squad, is down to him

Genuine question.
At what point is Dick's position considered?
If things dont improve on the pitch and we end up doing a Brechin, is the club and its fans willing to accept a complete collapse and relegation after all the hard work on and off the pitch the past few seasons.Think he has built up enough good will to survive one relegation

2 weeks is the max. He ain't getting fined. Shouldn't have been sent off.
No issues with the red card, rank stupidity

I wasn't at the game and I'm aware that statistics don't tell the full story but in what respect was this ever a close game?
You’re right, statistics don’t often tell the whole story,

Lunged into a tackle on the touchline, ref played the advantage, then poleaxed someone in the middle of the park. Yellows for both challenges. Entire sequence happened in the space of a minute.
Exactly what happened

Couldn’t agree more. I can’t make today but all I want is an energetic, attacking performance and to look at the match stats and see a lot of attempts on goal.
Absolutely this, last season we always looked like we knew what we were doing, this season so far, not so much

Last time I was at hospitality at Gayfield, am sure they auctioned off a Arbroath FC, dog basket

Almost want us to go to 3 centre backs ans Stewart and Hancock wing backs, Little ToB and Hammy with JT as back up,
Really don't know what to do with the midfield and Forwaed positions buy wouldn't be against putting Linn in a more central position up front,
I thought about this after the QP game

Everyone’s been woeful and we need to stop making excuses for the defence too, this spooked thing needs to stop. Gaston, Shanks and Allan on his limited time on the park have been the only guys that have played to a standard I would expect
Also can I just say this is what supporting a football club is all about, a period like this was always coming after last year. 30 years old now and seen this and been here before, stop hitting the panic stations and embrace it. It would be worrying if we never had a good squad of players but we do, we have plenty of good players who are underperforming for various reasons. We clearly aren’t finished with ins and outs, lots of changes week to week and I think there’s an added pressure this year
Getting 2000 home fans every game and for the first time there is an expectation on them this year. We have never ever had that at this level
Yes, we have good players, this week is crucial for us, our recruitment looks to have been awful, so far, but that can change

the moronic mewling of a desperate man. It was a stonewall penalty O’Brien made a save that Buffon would have been happy with and if there is ‘anyone who knows anything about football’ that agrees with Campbell they need their head checked.
Got to love that refs should just disobey the rules so a player gets his wages, hope they have also considered replacing water breaks with cuddle breaks and only allowing a goal to stand if the opposition are ok with it.
fud.
I agree, most of what Campbell says is, nonsense, I don't read what he says and i don't watch his pressers, I got the feeling a few years back, that what he says is to wind people like you up, just ignore him
