Whilst I’m not looking forward to Sunday, we may still well finish the first round of fixtures in 3rd place which is a vast improvement on last season. Even after our defeat on Saturday I think there is still reason for optimism. We find ourselves in or close to being third after having played everyone and we all know there is still lots of room for improvement. COYW

I’m not blaming manager for the first. Physio asked him for 2 mins. McGuire was the stand in and he got beat. We got caught out because nobody was expecting long to loose the ball and so we moved into attacking mode. Long lost the ball and Aberdeen caught us on the break. Second goal was just dreadful stuff. Then it was over. So on to next week we go and hope for better.

Dreadful

Polworth and Scott having quiet game but that’s probably due to Aberdeen. Hardly given a pass to Scott’s feet. Mostly down the left but Aberdeen making sure there is no room. Our goal came from Long loosing the ball much too easily when everyone was moving forward to attack and they just caught us with quick break with us all caught out of position

Physio asked for 2 mins to asses him

Not looking like our day

Is Donnelly still suspended or injured?

Getting excited about this one. Which way will the roller coaster go tomorrow? Step right up folks! COYW

What makes you think we will give up 2 goals?

Explains the 5-0 prediction then.

Who is the other Aberdeen player missing because of red card other than main?

You say that but you know better!

I’d tend to agree with your changes. For me Long looks much more the likely of the 2 to start banging in some goals

Partick?

Yep. As I was posting I was thinking the same thing. Just a pipe dream to think that we could have a successful manager that stayed around for a long time.

Just realized 2 things after looking on soccer database at our manager history..... 1. I’m as old as dirt. I have seen teams play under every manager except the first 2. 2. they don’t normally stay very long. After Bobby Howitt we have only had one manager that stayed more than 4 years. Wee Tommy who managed 10 years. The vast majority only managing 1 or 2. Would be nice to have some stability.

Go to the top of the class

Just seen latest score so glad our man is not playing. But at the same time might be worth a try in other games.

Well he did come off with a knock on Saturday so maybe not wanting to aggravate injury?

I would hope there is no january sale.

I think the last few games Campbell has been excellent and improving is all round game. Turning into Mr Consistency.

... and who doesn’t like Willie? Could that be considered a probing question?

Probably the key is getting an early first goal. If we can do that then we may get a few more.

I’d like to see Scott start getting some goals on a regular basis. He’s got great control and Looks very confident on the ball if he can start adding some goals he’ll be a terrific player for us.
