Do we really think Messi could cut it in Scottish League 1? Would be interesting as it is a completely different game to the level he excels at.

It’d be even harder to excel if Miller and Cracks or Rennie was his manager, they’d try and convert him into holding midfielder 🤦🏻‍♂️

I can see him making a defense cutting pass to .......

Nobody as they would not expect it!

Possibly a bit of a design flaw in that you can’t really have away fans totally segregated in the main stand due to the  toilets and kiosks unless you give away half the stage.

Got to say though I’d be looking at alternatives to opening the north stand to potentially 50 people.

Bring back the gazebo

Squad going to look a bit thin today without Alegria and Lawal plus the bodies that have shipped out.

 

3 in the door at 09:01 please 

I think there will be announcement(s) this morning. 

Marketing ploy or paperwork related as long as we get some signing emojis pre-game I don't mind.

Just listened to Manager’s interview & how refreshing it us to have a guy speak with transparency & clarity on what we as fans need to hear. The prospect of at least two if not 3 incoming players puts to bed the rumours to the contrary & excited to see who is next in pipeline, both in position & player profile. 
 

As an aside the references to his relationships with other managers etc is a measure of his own positive profile in Scottish game & we must be benefiting from this in the bigger picture going forward.

My starting 11 for today would be

Morison in goals 

Back 4 of Rowe Donaldson Mackie & McCann

Centre mid of McGinn & Henderson 

Yeats in hole

Front 3 of Morrison Burrell & Kennedy

That leaves bench of

Martin,, McKay, Oliver, McGuffie, Nesbitt, Caroll, & maybe couple of new faces?

Forgot about Malcolm to be added to bench taking us to full completion assuming any new faces.

Given recent exits, Algeria’s absence & injuries to Watson, Williamson & Lawal we now need urgent replacements even for squad depth

That, but with Nesbitt in for Yeats.  I don’t understand the dislike for Nesbitt- I think he’s one of our most improved players this season.  Yeats looked good at the start of the season but pretty sketchy in his last few matches, I don’t think he’s ready to be a regular starter yet.

FWIW that’s my overall preferred 11 but with Lawal in the position when he’s fit.

Alegria on the bench as well, or have I missed something?

He’s had to go back home for a family issue.

I got a few takes on the Nesbit thing part of it is the bun and a bit of a resemblance of Gollum from LOTR with one the other was he has been a bit Telferesque last season this season is much improved but the first Kelty game he went missing and wasn't up for a fight but has been since in short he's been a bit like that missing sock in the washing to put an analogy you know he's there but can't find him when you need him.

I think Nesbitt will be in for Yeats but that would be my starting X1 today based on what’s available.

He wasn’t the only one to go missing in that game!
