Aye I'm 99% sure that's Carlos Lyon himself (he changed his name by deed poll). He's been training with us.

If you can offer him a deal instead of us, that would be great. Wouldn’t want him at our club both for his ability and the fact he was found guilty of sexual assault.

Afraid I've had it confirmed numerous times by numerous folk that he was only training with us to get his fitness up after more than a year out. So he's all yours.

If it had been against a top flight outfit, it probably would have been dismissed as a harsh lesson. 

But this was against a team only a league above us.

Again, no one is calling for heads to roll, just that it was a brutal optic last night.

"Heads to roll"....🤣

Ok the got a thumping last night. What did we learn?

What I don't understand is why we picked a full time team to be our first warm up.  Why couldn't we play Forfar West End or some team of the same calibre ....give the lads a run for fitness and some confidence of having shots and maybe even a few goals.

I totally agree, start with a, hopefully, easy tie to ease them in then work up to playing a fit full time side who already have had games. Choosing the opposition last night was purely down to Gary’s pal being their gaffer.

A bizarre over reaction in here to a friendly. Surely every football fan at this level has seen enough over to the years to know they mean absolutely nothing?

It's just players having a kick about, getting the rust off and going through the motions.

I'm fully aware it's not fully indicative of the season ahead, but it's not exactly inspiring either.

If he stays fit, could be the difference.

Staying fit is the main thing there. On paper, great signing for league 2. Tbh id take a half eaten bag of scampi fries over Aitken at this point.

It’s absolutely mind boggling the stick Aitken gets from some of our fans.

He finished our 2nd top scorer & had the most assists in the side.

And if he was any use he'd have scored twice as many goals. The amount of sitters he missed was infuriating. Never mind the amount of times he did the square root of f**k all.
