Ya Bezzer!

Moult's injury problems might actually be a boon for us. No doubt if he stays it will because other teams have counted it against him.

I don't think anyone should read too much into the game yesterday but it should be a concern if half your squad are comprehensively outplayed by a part time League 2 team who are just back their holidays.

10 changes at half time. Better 2nd half, higher pace and some real tackles. Looked more effective with Thomas and Cadden on the flanks. Dembele was entertaining, potential cult player.

2-0 Bowman. Nice work down the right from Gordon and Cadden and a tidy finish.

Miles off the pace, way too many long balls, one up front, defence a shambles, should have been 3-0 down before we scored. On the upside it was a well take goal from Tuton.

If only we had access to these infallible scouts we wouldn't have signed two dozen duffers in the last few seasons.

Well I'm not in negotiations. I'm just saying what I think they are realistically worth if I was in the market for these players. Two different things.

Doubt it. Henaghan isn't worth a dime - realistically. Cadden - you are going to be very lucky to get 500k for a technically limited player, who doesn't score many goals and hasn't kicked a ball in about 6 months. Moult - look what Ross County got for Liam Boyce. There's no chance of getting £1m for him. Would most likely be closer to half of that.

Lafferty would be an excellent purchase for any team in this league, even his old team. Well outside our budget though.

Sadly there's a few parallels with the Dundee game all those years ago when we got pumped!

I have plenty shades of grey. Laing was fourth choice centre back on merit, was enormously outperformed by an unknown Northern Ireland teenager who came from nowhere midseason, got punted, then helped Inverness a) become the only team in the league to concede more goals than Motherwell, b) stay bottom of the league for virtually the entire duration of his time there and c) get relegated out the league. As for the play offs - is that when we brushed aside Championship level guff who were lucky to get past Queen of the South in the 3rd/4th place quarter final? That's what I'm saying, that's his level.

When are people going to get it into their heads that Louis Laing is fucking garbage? Accies level signing - at best.

If I could like this 10 times I would.

Maybe football these days puts athleticism before ability.

I see Michael McGlinchey played for New Zealand in the opening match of the Confederations Cup. Russia won 2-0.

Decent defender? When the balls on the ground, it doesn't matter if he has it or the attacker, he doesn't know what to do. He'll head balls all day, say against Rangers or Accies....until someone he comes up against a physical challenge....a Sammon, a Boyd, a big powerful centre forward, then he falls apart again. My first match was in 1982 but when I think "Motherwell nightmares" Henneghan's in the last match at Partick is right up there. I suspect he will be here next season cos I just can't see why anyone would pay cash for him. He'll need to improve big time.

Apparently GMS is away down south.

This is the greatest deception since the Allies fooled the Germans into thinking D Day would be at Calais.

Ha ha! Queens Parks mascot is absolutely terrifying!

Always like hooped socks so that's nice. The actual strip is OK but I think could have been a lot better without unnecessary details and better sponsor positioning. Away strip I quite like, looks quite different and modern although it could be one of those ones where it looks horrible in real life so I'll reserve judgement!

We need players that know the league. If we pick off 10 players from relegated League 1 and League 2 sides we are taking a huge risk, especially since Robinson's record in management isn't exactly sparkling. Seems to me we are going down the Baraclough January route again. We only just got away with that the first time. "Cross your fingers and hope this dressing room of strangers" gels looks like the grand plan.

He came on to a game latterly but I don't think he was good over the course. Maybe he needed a settling in period, or maybe he's just one of those guys that gives you a performance 3 times out of 10. Was never convinced by him.

No one else playing, aye?

I'm repeating myself but I think that it is going to be very hard for provincial, and especially fan owned provincial teams, to break into the Top 6 in the foreseeable future. There was a time when we could compete with much bigger clubs for players, we just can't do that any more and at the end of the day money buys quality. Hibs, who had nearly 20,000 people at their last match, and are now the third best supported team in the country, will surely be able to recruit enough quality to see them into the Top 6. It remains to see how the Cathro experiment goes at Hearts (personally, I suspect he'll get his jotters fairly soon into the new season) but I think we are probably looking at 1 realistic free spot in the Top 6 for the non city clubs to aim at and others are in a better position than us to get it, so I don't expect a Top 6 finish. What I'm really looking for is just improvement on last year, or over the general standard of the last few seasons. I want to see us better organised, tougher to beat, play more attractive football and make sure we don't ship goals and points from Fir Park. I'm a strong believer in the home ground being a fortress and no one should come to our place and have an easy game, that above anything else needs to be instilled into the team. I'd like us to ship out non contributors like Blyth and Clay, I'd like us to avoid injuries to important players and I'd like us to keep Louis Moult unless we get an offer we can't refuse.

It means we stayed in the top league.
