Sons' sorrow

Agree with this totally.

Totally agree with you and Lorenzo and others. It's that unusual business of football, having a supporter versus a customer. 

I also saw the messages from Albion, Annan and Morton who had the similar Pixellot issue. I see our statement reiterates the point the while it won't fully make up for missing live streaming,  the full game is up there to view. I bought a subscription, got in early last night and watched no problem.  I've also been back in this morning.  Are most people who subscribed able to go back in and watch ? 

To the commentary team and those who had done all the testing well done. Must have been a sickener that all the hard work was, in some fans cases, negated by the 3rd party issue.

Similar here - I will only seek a refund from Pixellot, not the club. I watched some of the match this morning and the picture quality was superb. The commentary was spot on and they clearly did their homework on both teams. I thought, from the small amount I managed to watch, that we played quite well, looked nice and tidy in the middle and the defence seemed to be quite calm and controlled - no real bomb scares, although I read on here that Rico was looking a little rusty in the second half.

I will definitely be logging on every week.

Just in case it was missed in all the livestreaming fun and games, we have signed striker Jaime Wilson who featured in pre-season. Ex ICT kid who had a spell with Rothes before heading to Northcote City in Australia. Duffy confirmed it last night but said that we are waiting for clearance and I clocked him in the stand during the game. I'm reliably informed by my Highland sources that he's "a dream strike partner who'll get you 10-12 goals a season." Has a decent turn of pace and some workrate apparently.

Here he is scoring some goals for Northcote...I've no idea what standard they are at, but I reckon he's worth a punt.

 

Really hope we get clearance soon as we need more bodies in the door.Happy with another striker but we need 2 more in midfield  including a winger).No idea if the budget will stretch so far but we need that at least.

Absolutely. I've no doubt that retaining a number of last season's squad avoided the customary headless chicken performance in the opening fixture - the defensive organisation was evidence of this - but with McKee gone we are currently reliant on Forbes for any creative spark in midfield. The lad Wilson looks to be a useful addition but a pacy midfielder with some football would be equally welcome, and a possible antidote to back-four hoofball. I'm sure JD is on it.

We need linked with an exotic sounding foreigner. There's been a distinct lack of that in this window. 

How many different nationalities have played for the Sons?
