It's always tough for young keepers. Sitting on the bench every week with with close to zero chance of game time isn't exactly a great way to develop. Going on loan gives you that experience, but then you're not available if the first team keeper is injured.
Someone like Ward has over 100 first team appearances, but presumably is OK playing second fiddle as needed. Either way, it can't be much fun being a second choice keeper anywhere.
He was my MOTM at the weekend, and I think Wimmer's approach to the game suits him much better than the formations SK tried to use him in.
The question is can he do it on a consistent basis under the new gaffer.
I'm just thinking more about the players' mentality. When you're a professional sports person, it's much easier to be playing to win something (like top of our split) than playing to avoid a loss.
Of course, as fans, we don't have to worry about that so can also hope other teams do us a favour.
Nice article on Miller in The Herald. (You can read it in an Incognito Window in Chrome, or Private Window in Firefox).
Despite the fake outrage from some media outlets, it's obvious his senior team mates knew the score and what it's like to be stitched up if you misspeak.
Although it didn't prevent them dishing out the appropriate level of stick.
Also interesting to read about how interested he was in McTominay and Glimour playing overseas.
The best help we can get is taking care of our own business. Worrying about the other results is an approach that will get you into trouble. Let them worry about ours.
It's amazing how the mood of a game can create that kind of chaos. And if Forbes hadn't missed the pen, we would never have had the pleasure of that finish.
Sometimes I think I must be looking at the wrong league table, because my copy has us sitting in 7th with Ross County having to score 8 points more than us to overtake.
I know it's been a poor season, but the league table doesn't lie, and we are at the very least, equal best of a bad bunch.
