Riku Danzaki is offski.

We beat Dundee United 1-0 in a game up at Tannadice this afternoon.

We drew 2-2 with Falkirk earlier in a closed door game. Liam Kelly saved a penalty with minutes remaining.

Reading a Kettlewell interview earlier he mentions we are 6 first team players down on the side that helped us achieve a strong finish and that we will need to move some players on before we can sign others. Obviously we had a bloated squad as we added many new bodies in January but it would have been interesting to see how things played out if Casey, Goss, Mandron etc all accepted new deals.

Kettlewell confirmed in an interview with the Daily Record that Sean Goss won't be returning. Least thats now put to bed.

I see the youth player Jevan Beattie has signed for Sheffield United.

I read that Gordon Young's book earlier in the year and he spoke about him. We had really high hopes that he would progress into the first team but just as he was on the cusp of doing so he suffered a horrible injury. Fair play to the guy for working his way back, not the best penalty taker though. It was also interesting in that book the amount of highly rated young talents we lose at a younger age.

I think he played for a short time up at Ross County in the League Cup. His one and only appearance.

What about players that we have signed for the first team but never kicked a ball before leaving. Can anyone add to the list below. Luka Belic Gavin Strachan Dean Brill Scott Fox Semih Aydilek Holm Kraska Marko Tuomela Mats Lundgren Eddie Nolan David White Graeme Mathie

I seen that Scott Burns mentioned earlier that Goss has interest from India and Casey is looking to see if potential interest from clubs in England open up.

Dundee away is our first league game for us this season.

Ross County have just spent a six figure sum to sign Eamonn Brophy from St Mirren. That's one thing about Robinson, he always seemed to get most of his transfer business done when he was with us around May/June time.

Lots of chat today about Steven Fletcher joining us. He's just left Dundee United.

Yeah, Roy Carroll in goals for Odense ran to the dugout area just as we were about to take the penalty, they also got two guys sent off later on. I think it was the penalty incident that sparked the brawl with Broon and the Odense officials, then they nearly got into a fight with fans as they hung around the middle of the POD Stand steps.

What was his role at the club previously under Willie McLean, assistant manager? He nearly guided us to a fine win against Rangers at Fir Park but a goal was chalked off for offside for us late on but it was well onside and as per they went on to equalise. 2010 was enjoyable for the best part, thoroughly enjoyed a game where we beat St Johnstone 4-0 midweek when Nick Blackman tore them apart with a first half hat trick.

Hearing Craig Brown has passed away.

Going by the pictures posted on social media it doesn't look like Danzaki has traveled with the squad, plus that's been several interviews Kettlewell has said he was well down the pecking order followed by he will need to up his game to be considered. It'll be interesting to see how the squad looks come the close of the transfer window, I hate criticising players but if we could shift Shields, Maguire, and Mugabi that would be a great start, easier said than done though as they would likely all be looking at a reduced wage. I think with McGinley's injury issues he will be kicking about for a wee bit yet.

Thumbs up on the new kit. New Strip

I see Dean invested in a new hairpiece for his new club, I take it he was away to Turkey a jolly. I hope the move works out for him.

There was a picture posted the other day with the players returning to training and one player has his back to the camera and is partially blocked by another player. On social media, a lot of people jumped to the conclusion that it was Harry Paton but it is actually Ewan Wilson.

It's always honking patter when you don't agree with someone. You have already admitted to belittling people on here a few months ago. Like I said, over the past few weeks you have constantly been posting things "In the know" in regards to our squad budget, kit release, Well Bois and on Dean but you keep it all very vague, it's easy to take an educated guess on things. Earlier in year you fought the corner for Cornelius when it was surprisingly reported that he was linked to Preston, obviously I'm paraphrasing but I'm sure your take was that it wasn't surprising and he contributes more than given credit for (before his consistent run) but thats some come down for him in club choice. I have no doubts a number of clubs in League Two will be able of offer better wages as you do have the likes of Bradford and Wrexham but are Harrogate, a club who draw roughly 2,000 fans to home games likely to blow us out the water with an offer he couldn't refuse or is it more likely he fancied his chances to make an impact in England. Good luck to the young guy, I truly hope he does well where ever he ends up.

Sorry dude but you spout some utter keech. You're calling out someone for mentioning finances and being an expert on it only for you to quickly follow it up by being in the know about Harrogate's playing budget. Are you Dean Cornelius da by any chance as you haven't taken any criticism of him well on here or on P&B over the past few weeks.

Scratch that someone has created a ton of fake Daily Record Sports accounts on Twitter. I like that platform for the legit reporters and club news but conversely full of fuds with fake profiles.

The Daily Ranger reporting that we are interested in signings Dipo Akinyemi from Ayr United, Dundee also in the mix. A Premiership club was interested in signing him in January but bid was declined then.

Kelly is just fine, he did let his high standards slip for a bit this season. I still wake up in a cold sweat at night thinking about Stevie Woods and Craig Samson so I'll personally be enjoying the guys services until he departs.
