Tierney should be taken off for that pathetic attempt at a dive. Could have been a chance.

The performance has been a shambles so far. Unbelievably slack.

McGinn, Spittal, Morris and I think the Oxborough signing was agreed by Alexander? Certainly not 2 players. Hammell has signed Penney, McKinstry, Moult and Aarons. All loans which suggests his budget was minimal. Penney is an improvement to the first 11 and McKinstry is contributing so although it hasn’t been a roaring success he did improve the first 11 in the 3 weeks ( not over a month) that he had to make signings. Hardly “failed miserably”.

In a transfer window where the majority of the budget had been spent by his predecessor on a squad that lost to Sligo. What a failure.

That was last seasons squad that qualified for Europe. We’d already lost players from that squad when Hammell came in. The squad he inherited had just been well beaten by a team who are currently 5th in the League of Ireland.

Not only that, he got in the way of McGinn who could easily have cleared it.

Website says there will be live video for international subscribers.

IMO that’s the way it should be. All businesses and the general public should have the right to choose how they want to react to the Queen’s passing rather than being told. There will be those who are affected by it and want to pay respects and those who it barely even registers with and will only notice due to forced disruption to events and services.

Have they being told to close or have they taken this decision themselves?

Had enough chances to win 3 games. Poor finishing, bad luck and poor decision making with the final ball cost us the win. Didn’t concede though so we’re a point better off than we were at the start of the day.

If KVV took all of his chances he wouldn’t be playing for us. If he takes 1 and we win I’ll be happy.

From ESPN talking about England: Clubs in all leagues will still be able to sign players as free agents after the deadline, and as long as they are not officially attached to any club on Thursday, Sept. 1.

I’m sure you need to be a free agent before the window closes to be allowed to register for another club outwith the window.

I think he means Steven Hammell isn’t giving any details. I’m not sure how this can happen if the window is closed. Is there a loophole?

What is it that makes you think Aarons wasn’t Hammell’s signing (despite him saying it was and being here in 2020) and that it was down to the head of recruitment (who wasn’t here when Aarons previously was)?

The head of recruitment that didn’t join the club until 2021?

Might have been worth checking before commenting.

He signed for us on 31st January 2020 and the league was cut short on 13th March. That’s a period of 6 weeks where he had 7 appearances so I think you must be thinking of someone else.

Morris can’t be trusted with the ball, even when he made simple passes there were better options. His run when we had the break with Efford was abysmal for an experienced player, he ran into an area where Efford couldn’t get the ball to him. I’d rather see a youngster get a chance than waste time on him.

Poor performance, but it was going to come at some point. Hopefully once the new signings are up to speed and joined by a couple of others we’ll have a stronger starting 11 and more strength in depth.

Livi down to 10 men.

Mikey Johnston’s 23 so a bit different from an academy prospect.

Brilliant team performance with everybody giving their all. Well done Stevie Hammell.

Yes, it was mentioned on Sportsound that O’Donnell hasn’t had any game time during pre-season. He’ll be nowhere near match fit.

This is an absolute embarrassment. No fitness, no ability and no fight in the team.
