Tony Watt named the vice captains at Dundee United. He couldn't get out the door quick enough in January.

Robbie Mahon has joined Edinburgh City on loan.

Thank you. Yeah, that's what is happening to me as well I'll just pop into the ticket office instead.

Does anyone else have issues trying to buy tickets on the website? It reserves my seats for the home cup games which I have been trying to buy but at the final stage when I press process it just blinks and goes back to the start.

That would be excellent if true, I wonder if it does materialise that one of Lamie or Mugabi would be moving on. It's not been too bad a week or so with St Mirren getting landed with Mandron, and Danzaki moving on and by all accounts, it sounds like Shields will be following suit.

Probably not surprising but I see Josh Morris turned out as a trialist at Graham Alexander's MK Don's friendly yesterday.

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.
