I think Mark Kerr and John Baird have been two of Houston's best signings. I wasn't too sure about Kerr when I seen he had sign as I thought he was more or less done but he has proved me wrong hugely. He control's most games and his passing and work rate are usually of a high standard. Baird just runs and runs until he has nothing left, he gives no defender a minutes peace.

Shame on Taiwo as I think he is very underrated in our team. Huge loss for us in my opinion.

Great news about Taiwo IMO. Cracking wee player who gives us a physical edge

Surely this Mandron wouldn't break our wage structure like it was reported this new signing would?

This... I would be happy with, with McCracken as back up when fit.

According to the website, there is only 2 trialists with the team.

Agreed I would be happy with Botti, Baird, McHugh and one other as our strikers. Let's be fair, McHugh will be better than Morgan. Don't think Botti is nearly ready to leave us. Hasn't shown enough quality for a sustained period for me. As others have said there have been glimpses in some games I.e against Hearts and Inverness but that's about it.

Please not Clarkson, please!

Houston and Maybury arguing with the fans near the end. Smith crossed into the south stand, one of the worse crosses I've seen, the fans criticised him and Houston and Maybury turned with Maybury calling someone a "fat c**t" and Houston "see you outside"! Don't want to see that from the coaching staff.

Hamilton fans raved about Cuthbert before they signed McGovern. Let's not forget, had it not be for Cuthbert's superb saves in the second leg of the play-off game last year it would have been us playing Hibs and possibly in the Premiership.

Hearts played a 3-5-2 system against Hibs yesterday and got slaughtered the first half and had to change it. Would it be a gamble worth taking?

Not too bothered about Loy leaving as I'm sure there will be a fair few strikers available come the summer. As someone else mentioned we've lost more effective players than Loy in the past few years and replaced near enough all of them. Don't get me wrong I would loved to have kept Loy, but he clearly wasn't interested as he's been offered a new deal at least twice in the past 8 months.

We've got to keep Loy in this window- at all costs. I know he'll leave in the summer for free, but it's our best chance of getting the play-off's and possibly Hampden (depending on draw)

I know Houston never rated Millar but it makes you wonder why when he rates OTJ and Taiwo!

Under Holt, Alex Smith wasn't allowed in the dugout and had to sit in the stand. He takes care of the academy more up at Stirling. He's been up there for a while dressed in the forth valley academy tracksuit. Under Houston, we've seen him make a return to the dugout at specific times. I've got to admit I'm a fan of Alex Smith and I know he is highly regarded by the staff and kids at the academy.
