Has anyone heard any transfer news or rumours from Palmerston? On the BBC website it says that we have missed out on Adam Livingstone of Motherwell to Morton.

Don't need a left back so not bothered by that.

Have to say that midfield is the worst I've ever seen at Palmerston totally clueless no quality what so ever

Pybus looks OK and if he had a good player beside him would be ok

Kidd don't even get me started on him if you need a rb for cover fair enough but in cm jesus no

Paton poor fitness will be a problem doesn't look very interested and looks finished

Mccarthy not seen enough to make a real comment but if kidd is a better option he should retire

Oliver wasted out wide should be up front as should Murray imo

Kilday I don't mind him think he's a decent signing

Holt looks OK in spells will come good

Hamilton he has also played on the wing why I don't know he's a big lad we are missing dykes workrate and layoffs surely this lad could fill that gap

Face like the look of him and once he gets a goal and match fitness will be fine

Lyon clearly not fit but offered nothing yesterday

MCcrorrie good signing

Rather than sign kidd and paton I would have liked to give young boys a chance at least when they make the mistakes those are making we could understand

Fort me the midfield is a bomb site no one knows what their doing or how to do it and unless we can get 3 or 4 players in we will be in trouble.

Lot of that I  agree with .

On the subject of poor CM pairings, I’ll weigh in with Mark Millar and Jake Pickard being utterly useless in CM together.

Pybus is a good player, but is doing the work of 2 players right now. If Lyon can get some more game time under his belt, there may or may not be a player in there.

We are severely lacking in wide areas. Paton is probably one of the slowest players in the team, every other option for the wing (Oliver, Murray, Faiss, Hamilton) is far better centrally.

Reserves team today v Hearts...

Leighfield

Moffat, Gourlay, Semple, Newbould

McCarthy, Kidd, Luissint

Vezza, Hamilton, R.Irving

...so some first teamers getting a run out, and all but Kidd getting the 90 mins. Tight first half with not a lot happening, but finished 3-1 to Hearts with Jack Hamilton getting the Queens goal. Lewis Kidd didn't even look up to pace in midfield at reserves level, got frustrated and got booked. AJ was on the bench with Eddie Warwick, good to see (if it wasn't deadline day!) I don't remember Naysmith being at many reserve games last season, although he and Levein were there today.

Any thoughts about Luissint? I find him an interesting signing. A French national with a sports agent down south who specialises in placing young French players. Already 21 so not the youngest to be signing to play in the ressies and we seem a bit of a random choice.

Naysmith was at many reserve games when he was manager and when he wasn't Dougie Anderson was...

Fair enough, in the stands when he was so I must've missed him/them at some then.

He looked OK, but had quite a quiet game. Hearts midfield was pretty good though. I heard he was pretty impressive in the game at Dunfermline, so maybe he's just in the reserves to get him up to speed with Scottish football, like Norman and McGrath last season.

Dunno if that's a hint or just coincidence. Would be happy enough with him returning. Beggars can't be choosers. Not sure if he got on with AJ or not though.

Can't believe we have not used at least one of our loan signing what the hell is AJ doing.

Killie signing a few players he should be in  contact with them to try and get Iain Wilson on loan All I will say about Aird is that he is better than Paton but that would not be hard

Greg Kiltie to Pars on season long loan, wouldn’t have minded him. Appears Calvin Miller is still at Celtic as well, another I would have liked. Can’t believe we never got anybody in at all. Going to need a miracle with our current midfield.

The shite that’s left


Dan Armstrong and Craig Curran both free. Dundee had 2 ‘Curran’s’ playing against us in January, think Craig may have been the striker rather than the winger Jesse. Would take Dan Armstrong, tore it up in League 1 and was never given a chance at County

I am not one to cry "sack the board" – they are putting their own money into Queens (and losing it) and I don't see who else could come in that would do better. 

I would just like to know if we have a long term objective. It seems from the outside like our objective is just to keep full-time fitba at Palmy, stay in the Championship and stay afloat.

If that's it, then it's not particularly inspiring, although I suspect a lot of Scottish football clubs have equally pallid purposes.
