Could see Greg Stewart, hes 30, not getting a game, and I think his contract is up in June. Ross not so much, I think county are expecting a decent fee for him.
Cummings looks to be going the way of Tony Watt with his moves not quote panning out, maybe we're his level.
I have to assume we're close to arranging some outgoings too, outside of Lang going back to Wigan. Maybe ending the Hastie loan.
-
Went with Watt, good goal and great work rate for the whole game. It would be nice if he had some support, because he's doing a great job of holding the ball up.
-
It scares me that Lang is gone after next week, and White was the first choice to come on today. If White ends up starting games, we're done.
Overall, if I'm going to pick out the good points, I thought Crawford had a good game, and Grimshaw held his own again and was close to that elusive first goal. Watt does a really good job of holding onto the ball, and has steadily improved for us. He needs better around him though, Lang works hard, but made some poor decisions that cost us a couple of chances.
Gallagher, O'Hara and Lamie looked relatively comfortable, although the latter was lucky with a couple of penalty shouts. It was good to see Carson back, and he made a few key saves. His distribution makes us better too.
I think United should have cashed in on Shankland last year, he looked pretty shite to me.

Jordan White can do 2 things - 1) Foul 2) Flick on to nobody. He must be fantastic in training though.
-
We should have had that game wrapped up by about 60 mins, and it took a Carson save to ensure we even got a point. That was poor.
-
Odonnells disallowed goal was a thing of beauty.
We've done a better job of trying to play forward passes, rather than pissing about with passes back to the keeper. The movement up front has been better.
The midfield has improved as well, still some way to go, but encouraging so far. Unfortunately Robbo seems to have a knack of helping the opposition with the half time team talk.
-
Wasn’t a terrible performance, especially considering our recent run. Neither team really carved out a chance outside of mains header in the first half, and while Aberdeen looked the better team in attack, we defended pretty well.
Crawford really doesn’t offer anything that warrants blocking any other player in our squad. Polworth has been piss poor on set pieces for a while, and had his worst performance in that respect tonight. He does know how to win a free kick though, and saved us with an excellent piece of defending when Aberdeen broke away in the second half, maybe that’s the sort of thing pie sports like.
Grimshaw handled left back fine again, and almost got in the end of a chance when Cole played the ball across. I’d like to see how Cole plays in a front two.
It’s fitting that Lang might leave halfway through the season considering he can’t finish a game. All I ask is his replacement has a first touch.
I didn’t see much to fill me with optimism, but I thought we were going to get hammered, so I’ll take the point.

No Long. No Mc Ginley.
Could these guys be 2 of those to be punted??
Long is injured

The MLS season is over, maybe we can get Cadden on loan from Columbus and sell him to Oxford.

So, with long looking to be out for a few weeks, are we in danger of singing someone else who can play across the front 3 in January? Which ex player should we all clamor for? Who are we magically going to get rid of? Are any of our loan players set to do a Hastie?
I doubt we will do much business this coming window. With the potential for Carson, Carroll, Donnelly, and maybe Dunne returning, we may be looking to them to solve our problems. We also brought in a lot in the last window, including 2 goalies we didn’t plan for, and will be working on some contract extensions, so the best I think we will see is a loan.
-
Has Polworth spat the dummy yet for not starting the last 2 games? I thought Crawford did OK, but would rather we used Maguire since he’s one of ours and could surely have done the same job. O’Hara should be at the back.
We managed to hang on for 70 mins, but they had some very good chances in that period, and it was just a matter of time. I assumed it would be the inevitable penalty, but instead it was a stupid decision from Crawford (I think) on halfway which led to them scoring the first. We were done the second that hit the net.
Watt and Lang put in great shifts, but we needed to have some sort of outlet.
-
I’ve been watching Ted Lasso this week. I’m filled with positivity and love for the beautiful game. We will get hammered. I’ll watch anyway.
-
Cole and White are out as well.
-
Interesting that they seem to think O’Donnell has some sort of clause in his contract, I’m pretty sure it’s just until the window, so he’d be a free agent then anyway.
I doubt either he or Gallagher will get the exposure they’re getting now, so they might get themselves a good move out of it that they wouldn’t have got otherwise.
-
I thought we would have struggled with the way they play, and the pitch, and the conditions, but we were pretty comfortable. Gallagher and O'Hara strolled it for me, and our midfield battled well. Watt and Lang really put the work in, and both deserved their goals. White is frustrating to watch though, really strikes me as being out of his depth.

Close run thing between Watt and the Verizon lassie. Went with Watt because he worked hard for the full 90, whereas Miss Verizon dropped out of the game a few times.

If they're going to to to the trouble of getting in front of the defender I'd rather they just hit the ball themselves and scored.
Tomorrow will probably be a tight game, and I'd be surprised if we strayed from the back 3. If we're dead set on Maguire being a midfielder it doesn't make sense to bring him in to the back 3, but we may have no option if mcginley isn't fit. I'd try Maguire instead of Ohara, but I don't think the manager agrees.

There's a time constraint on the cup game, whereas we the rearranged league fixture can be played at any time. It's going to be interesting to see how this is handled, and how much it changes when this happens again, depending on the teams involved.
-
I agree with calling the match off. I'm not sure that I agree with the points being awarded, regardless of how the killie players ended up infected.
Whatever is decided, it will be worded in a way that gives the OF an out if needed. Considering we stared the season with all this shit known beforehand, the rules for situations like this really should have been clear and simple.

It's a trap
-
The bit about Louis Laing forgetting his boots was interesting (I can't think of who else it could have been). Guessing connor grant was the other one he mentioned.
-
I don't think we need a poacher, that type of player needs service. I can't think of a time this season where chances went begging.
I've seen no indication of Lamie being out of favour, and with bevis, Gallagher, mcginley, Maguire and dunne all around, I'd be surprised if we spent there.
I'd agree on cover for polworth, may be money better spent over getting another forward, hopefully he doesn't spit the dummy at having to work for his place though.

I always liked ramsden, and more so after this. Some great stories and insights. Motherwell stuff starts around 1:25
