I almost forgot we had a game on Saturday what with all the off-field shenanigans from both teams that's kept everyone talking.

Back to the football then should we wish.

I'm sticking my neck on the line and predicting that we'll keep our winning run going, certainly expect no less than a point. If I'm wrong then I'll take all the pelters I'm due come 4:45pm on Saturday.

I've seen/heard nothing from Partick this season to suggest that we should be fearful of them, certainly my prediction of Gary Caldwell being the first manager to get the dunt was correct, and while I expect them to be boosted in some way by Ian McCall I doubt he's had enough time to really work with the players. While most would have expected their defeat to Celtic on Wednesday it's still a game more than we've played since last Saturday and I think that'll show, hopefully we'll be sharper and less jaded. They'll be more organised but can they produce the extra quality that's needed to improve sufficiently, not for me.

Hopefully we can start the game quick and take it to them from the outset.

I expect us to field the same starting 11 as last weeks defeat of Queen of the South.

 

Here's our match report complete with highlights.............

 

one positive to take is that Roddy Macgregor is starting to fit right in with the first team, you wouldn't be able to tell he was 17 if you didn't already know.

Think we maybe missed Keatings movement as he offers something different to the other front men who are all pretty similar in style.

The plaudits for Macgregor are fully deserved and hopefully has done enough for a extended run, maybe at the expense of a not fully fit Aaron Doran who has struggled to impose himself and spent Saturday as a virtual spectator.
