    Controversial here, but I'm not overly unhappy about Josh Edwards going. At the same time, if he signed  new deal I'd be okay with that. He has a good engine, and is rarely injured but his inability to put a decent ball in the box is an issue. He will do it, but for large parts it usually ends up in the stand or out for a throw in on the other side.

    If we can get six figures for him then excellent.

    Oft be careful here. I've had a red for less 

  2. We set up not to lose and so that's on McPake. Mehmet was maybe at the bog when Mcpake said OK let's actually try and win rather than not get beat durong the HT talk, so was still playing the earlier approach.

    The game was there to win that first half as they looked nervous, and despite starting well, the set up and not get beat attitude held us back.

    Shocking yet unsurprising.

    Nah, we really need an upgrade on Mehmet. He makes some good saves but overall isn't good enough.

    There was a moment on Saturday when a floaty ball in to our box was headed out for a corner or throw in by Benedictus. There were no Airdrie players near him but he didn't get a shout from Mehmet and was clearly pretty unhappy about it. 

    Mehmet can't control his box effectively enough. He has issues with crosses and teams are clearly more aware of this now.

    This 👍

    If the defence can't be confident in the keeper they'll always second guess and look nervous and it shows quite often in games. Some of the shambolic and laughable defending we've seen stems from this imo.

    He's the best left back/left wing back in the division, and as bad as his crossing is sometimes, he's still a pretty major threat who I can't remember an opposite winger getting the better off. 

    Sorry I can't agree. Defensively he is also suspect imo. Seen plenty go against him if running at him and get the cross in regularly.  He can break it up further up about half way but he can get caught when deeper.  Many may not agree but I'm not sure I get all the hype at times.
