Totally agree. On Wednesday JG says he'll have a new player on Friday. And on Friday, we sign a new player. Cracking stuff. I see he thinks we could have signing number 5 by Monday. Good times.

I remember Boyle saying the new manager would have a budget to use on Bosmans or "small transfer fees" as he saw fit. Nore sure what would constitute a small fee, though.

Seems to have a good pedigree with David Moyes (if you can believe wiki) tipping him as a future England international.

At least you can see it. I'll have to wait until I get home before I start messing around with proxies etc. so I can finally watch it.

Because I'm psychic. Right now , for example, my sixth sense is telling me you are just looking for an argument.

Dundee Utd's biggest ever defeat is 12 - 1 to Motherwell. EDIT: beaten to it.

You might think that, but Gannon apparently doesn't

There is no point in risking problems with the pitch in December for the sake of one game. Can you imagine the outrage on here if something went wrong with the "Why did JB not listen to the experts?" and "More incompetence from the club!!" etc. The club screwed up last year with the pitch, so the more good advice they heed this season, the better.

I like Sutton, and Murphy seems like he will be a significant contributor this season. However, as Gannon said post-match, he doesn't like to overuse his youngsters, so we will definitely need to bring in one other striker. I don't mind if that doesn't happen in time for the game in Romania. Gannon has followed through on all his promises of signings so far, so I'm looking forward with interest to see who comes in next.

With all the changes to the playing personnel and management/coaching staff, this has been an ideal pre-season. Six (at least) competitive games to let the new faces find their feet has been terrific preparation for the league. I imagine the Europa run has also made us more attractive to potential signings. Next season, however, I'd rather we didn't get involved until the first round proper

Closing paragrph in The Herald's match report.

Aye he was a good wee player for us when he wore the claret and amber.

Here is The Scotsman's match report. Barely enough space to describe the goals.

Presumably, JG wasn't expecting much activity down O'Brien's side of the park and wanted an extra attacking option. I can't imagine he sees him playing there long term.

On the bright side, I imagine any tie from now on will be available via video stream.

Luckily the teenagers of Motherwell could handle the pressure. It must be upsetting to lose to such a bunch of amateurs, so thanks for your positive words.

That's not so good.

Sounds like the tactical adjustments are working so far. How are the 2 new signings doing?

Aye, I was thinking exactly the same thing there myself.

Better than the 'fishul site though

Who got number 6?

I guess JG decided on the first approach

If you've got SopCast this one seems to be good quality. http://livefooty.doctor-serv.com/thu23.7/Ujpest_Steaua.html Click on "LiveFooty11" and you should be good to go.

I didn't want to tempt fate by watching the Steau game. Do you think it's safe now?

Superb stuff. I can't even keep up with this thread
