Ross County fans are generally positive about his time up there in terms of his coaching ability and man management skills which I don't think we can dispute during his time here. Getting a tune out of KVV and taking a player St Johnstone fans described as the worst player they've ever seen and turning him into something resembling a decent forward supports that view imo.. The one criticism they had of him was the standard of players he brought in who didn't exactly get their fans excited so perhaps that is his weak spot with some poor summer signings which tbf he looks like he's recognised and gone some way to remedy. If we were to bin him at this late stage would anyone fancy the gig given the present circumstances, I don't know. I

2k pw in front of 4000 fans or 5k a week in front of 10000. I don't blame him.

Got your reply in before I'd finished editing mine but we're on the same page.

They would need to go some to catch Hearts. Not impossible but unlikely.

Wouldn't say we were short in Central defence in terms of numbers, quality maybe. Blaney Casey Mugabi Butcher plus McGinn and ODonnell who can also play there.

Not happy with it but it's where we are and is what it is and no point losing any sleep over it.

He goes into the dressing room where everyone knows he's on 7k a week while they're on less than half that. Not exactly a motivator. Killie will probably be in the top 6 on current form so we play them on Saturday then don't have to give him a second thought after that.

I'm glad the club didn't get involved in a crazy bidding war for Van Veen. Killie gambling that he can hit the ground running and his goals will guarantee them a top 6 spot and possible European place (which on current form they might get anyway). If they don't however, then its basically money spent for mid table mediocrity like us. History tells us that people with more money than sense piling cash into a Scottish football club at any level usually ends in tears. I'm actually more pleased at getting Devine on loan than disappointed at not getting VV.

Dont think thats going to happen unfortunately as according to one of the resident stattos over on P&B you're only allowed one loan player from another SPL club so as we've apparently retained the registration of Montgomery and not cancelled the loan, we can't get anyone else on loan from Celtic.

Hearts have confirmed they've no interest in him. Killie (according to their fans) are only looking for a defender this window. Leaves us and possibly St Mirren as the other clubs interested (allegedly I might add). All coming from a tweet by a Dutch journo.

Funny how when Steelboy gets a bit of stick Yodo suddenly makes an appearance.🤔

Wonder where they'll register on Steelboys pishometer.

Can you not give the guy the benefit of the doubt and make your mind up after you've seen him in the flesh or is that too much to ask.

So how do you know Vale is a poor player when you haven't even seen him play.

Allegedly tried that and were told to FO.

Think we're all getting ahead of ourselves. It's only a rumour and even if its true it doesn't necessarily mean he'll accept their offer. Despite what some people say, he's been one of our better and consistent players this season and I wouldn't be surprised if even more clubs were sniffing about him.

Fair took me back there Smiddy Thanks👍

Right now I would take Usain Bolt (well someone had to do it)

I can think of 3 right away.

FWIW someone who is usually spot on with his info told me that we were never in for Main or Scott and it was just paper talk.

Seems like he's been here for years and only played a dozen games. Lovely guy and I hope things work out for him.

Took the words right out of MJC Steelboy and Yodo's mouths.

Livi have been playing him way out of position as a wing back according to their fans and he's not a happy bunny. Was being touted as a £1m signing not that long ago He's always caused us problems when played up front and if we could get him for not a lot of money he could turn out to be a good addition.

Only really seen him for any length of time up at Elgin but he's a natural on the RHS so in theory yes.
