For this wondering… the latest 40 min Levein podcast ‘Sacked in the morning’ has no Saints content. Just a mention of VAR injustice.

Brighton for me. Get some wonderkids from the remote corners of the world up here to learn the art of ‘Levein ball’

Netball would be embarrassed with that ‘foul’ a clash of boots, awful for the game

Phillips out again. His appearance % can’t be great. Seems he is out often

See Adam Montgomery has been recalled to Celtic. Wonder if he will be considered, I would

Tony Doc watching him in our 2-2 game and thinking ‘He is my man’ has me laughing

Is a loss, scunnered we can’t play him at Dens

Went to see Airdrie earlier in the season. They played well, they beat Partick. It was oddly cold there in early August. Going there in January will be baltic. Will be a tough game on the plastic pitch

Courier reports Levein and Kirk incoming

My concern too is Levein has not been in management for a number of years now. I’m intrigued in the Tam Courts link. Done well at United on paper for sure but weren’t his team guff to watch? I remember we dominated his team at McDiarmid during the covid season but Siegrist was saving everything at him.

Any other manager now will now know they are second choice. Not ideal

I too have heard this but laughed it off. However seeing someone else mention it makes me wonder…

I drove past earlier at 10 and saw no sign of life at the ground or on the training pitch. Found that odd after McLean’s post match interview. Unless they are training at Stirling again?

To me, I reckon we are a centre half short and yet we are trying to move McGowan on. Hopefully that means we have a new centre half incoming tomorrow

Talking of loaning in wingers anyone think we could get Vata in from Celtic at all. Since we done Montgomery and Ralston a turn could we be considered? Personally don’t like loaning on and developing OF players but best to consider all options in our predicament

If true, is a good signing. Twitter has numerous English club fans hoping their club takes him on

As mentioned, agree with all. We are a hard sell now, McLean could be picky, we are tightening our belts etc etc but in essence as a club we are totally at a standing still stage now while other clubs are being proactive. Another take perhaps. Could the lack of movement maybe indicate a takeover is ongoing behind the scenes? I’m likely clutching at straws here but potential new owners could be wanting a say on recruitment while current owners don’t want to spend. Any potential sale would be probably be known to us though. I do wonder if there is ‘politics’ going on somewhere though as I can’t remember such a dour summer

If it is who I’ve heard… At least Mulgrew won’t be with him leaking goals

Interesting thoughts. Ibrox away in the quarter finals of the Scottish Cup would have been great. However, Hampden in the sun beating Hibs would have been bliss

Good to see some O’Halloran comments at last on recent tweet

Hoping todays result starts a chain reaction of people now saying ‘let’s go’ and a flurry of emails and phone calls across the world… By Monday afternoon I expect to see new owners showing us shiny pictures of a refurbished McDiarmid, (blue seats, corners filled in) a new kit deal with a Nike/adidas type, plans for a new youth academy and pre contracts deals with 6 players from South America… But let’s be honest, In reality, it will be just one year extension for James Brown…

Can only see Brown and Kane getting a contract extension tbh. Spoony maybe. That will bring the squad numbers down by almost 10.

I see Crystal Palace are having to play a kid in goals tonight as they are down to the bare bones in numbers. Does Remi have a recall option or are we ok till the end of the season?

Looks like no statement is coming from them either. My prediction for Celtic is 3 stands again. But £20 a head for us as this time there is no split on ticket money.

I have a feeling Spoony might try Canada/the States on expiry of his contract. Not heard anything but have a hunch
