"Burton", obvs!

Watt made absolutely no progress at St Johnstone either (or at Salford or Burtion A.to be honest) yet look at him now (badly missed at the moment but I think Oscar can fill the void on his return to fitness). I was relieved there were no boos for Vogt when he came on because his confidence looks fragile but his two crosses were excellent. We need players like Thor and P-H to be getting on the end of them.

"Naw, Alfie, jist hoof it up the pairk!" That'll do the trick..........

Sums it up for me. Judging the manager so soon after a summer of turmoil, both personal and professional, is misguided. The new players need time to gel to produce something like the kind of football we saw last year. Aberdeen had nothing but the long ball for the first half hour, kicked and niggled all the time and got a goal with their first shot on target. The second, a deflected one from a simple mistake was the killer. They could pick us off then when we went for broke and it worked. The much-criticised Vogt produced two excellent crosses which should have been more productive and Thor a couple of flick-ons and hold-up play which was an improvement on the performance of the front three which started, who offered little/nothing as a unit. The Dundee game is a test for the new manager and players to show a big reaction.

Had a quick look and this looks like an enormous amount of work. Will look furrit to digesting it at leisure and full marks for finding the true origin of our beautiful C&A: Lord Hamilton of Dalzell's racing colours were red and white.

If you want MFC to play out from the back, which is the basis of our possession play, then the odd mistake is inevitable. Paulsen has been excellent this year but simply made a misjudgement today. Donnarumma of Man City committed a howler that escaped a goal by about three cms today so it can happen to the best of GKs. Even then I thought we could have scored but three reasonable chances went a-begging in the first half and we looked out of it in the second: knackered. The international break for once has come at the right time for us. I'm pretty sure we'll come back strongly against The Mutton Molesters. Alfred was honest in his post-match comments and I'm sure we'll make amends.

Downward spiral......

Sadly, true. And I have little confidence about the refereeing tomorrow. i meant centre circle btw: sausage fingers.

We’ll both get into trouble from the site Puritans……..

Apparently 6-1 to win at some bookies. Seems disrespectful given we've beaten them three times in four at The Place but if I were a betting man..........

Yes, they have smoked us a couple of times in my experience........ Sorry, I'll leave the building.

That was ridiculous given the conditions (even an Aberdeen player asked the ref. not to send Oscar off and fair play to him) but the referee surpassed himself by sending off Gordon for denying an obvious goal-scoring opportunity on the central circle with two covering 'Well players plus GK between the Dons player and the goal. Unbelievable, but that's Scottish refereeing for you.

Ha! Ha! Fairy Nuff. I will thrash myself with birch twigs 🤣 😁😆.

Have to say, when I saw it on the pitch I thought it was a bit harsh. A yellow, certainly, but I would have been disappointed had it happened to a 'Well player in those circumstances. Am I being too fair? 🤣

My small brane can't really cope with this but I hope to learn:
