Not sure about this one. Signed his last deal only last winter and didn't commit very long on a 18 month deal. Think he will sign if we somehow went up. If not, he'll be away. Dundee apparently tried to sign him according to McPake.

We've got a young and injury hit squad this season but confident we'll be comfortably safe this season and push on for promotion in the next couple years. Some really good young players signed up on 3 year deals now. Maybe look at a couple late 20's early 30's players from a higher level to take us on to the next stage in the next couple windows. I think the youthful element is covered.

We're missing two of our back three. We've been hammered by injuries all season. Comrie and Otoo are not natural CB's. They actually done well this season in there but yesterday just seems an off day.

Sharp does keep his place. Ben Summers out the squad. Must be our standard injury this week.

So do I. McPake was talking about being open to making changes to a winning team in his midweek interview.

Welcome back bud. Looks like you have chosen a good time to come back in to the fold.

Got to say, I didn't think it was that bad when I have sat in it. Quite like a bit of old school, as long as it not dangerous.

That is disrepectful. Bert Paton removed from the legends wall and replaced with a QR code for the 7 kings. I'm pretty annoyed about this. Great positivity at the club right now, then some twit sanctions this monstrosity. We should be naming a stand after him not removing him from the legends wall for that hideous thing. Scratching my head as to why this was given the thumbs up.

No chance it will be Raith.

I noticed Jamie McDonald was subbed on Saturday.What happened there?

John Clark free kick around 1995 against St Johnstone midweek. Hit from around 30 yards and nearly ripped the goalposts out the ground.

Really pleased to hear Ben Summers is making a big impact in that AM role. Was a bit disappointed we couldn't get the Wotherspoon deal over the line( he's still liking just about every Pars related post on Twitter btw) and was worried that we couldn't replace Matty Todd properly but great to hear this lad sounds like the real deal.

Yep weird. If Pars were flying at the top, the last thing I would think about is Raith Rovers. They have real insecurities about what they are.

Thought we would extend McCann's contract in the summer, that maybe means he's turned down an offer already. He would've certainly been another 3 year deal type player. He's been with us for a while so compo will be pretty decent I think.

Sounds a bit of a mess. We have had similar issues with our training ground due to costs of materials and trade prices.

So have Queens Park given up on the stadium or just a temporary move to Hampden?

Ah, ok. It's still not finished then? Why has it taken so long?

Not been keeping up with Queens Park politics, but why are you playing at Hampden when your new ground is now finished?

I would be lying if I said I hadn't thought about us ending up fighting down there. I think we have recruited a couple too many young players and lacking a couple established players who know this league. Bene's injury is a fine example, where we're left with no experienced centre halves because of one injury. Chalmers is the only experiened midfielder, he gets an injury it will be the same. I think it was great getting Matty Todd, KRH and Otoo signed up but I thought after that , there would be some older players to suppliment that. Not having Andy Tod and Taylor Sutherland on the bench. Personally think they need to go out on loan and gain experience in the lower leagues first. I'm not writing us off as relegation candidates yet. I have a lot of confidence in the management teams ability and if they think this group is good enough to compete at this level then great. It's still very early and these boys talent may well be at a level that supersedes having older players with experience. I just have a nagging feeling that we have misjudged our recruitment slightly by not bringing in another couple older heads in defence and midfield.

Got to watch out for those mental luvvies...

Keep him. Bully is the man

Who was number 46? Is that a youth player or a really bad signing.
