Was at the Elgin game at The Glebe last night. Mackay was playing on the left of a forward 3. Good overall performance which included Daniel missing a sitter of a header in the 1st half and netting a rasping 20 yard drive in the 2nd half. Was easily the goal of the game aswell.

Enjoyed the latest edition, well done all I applaud you. Some good ideas from Moogthurso there but as there are only around 24 players taking part in the NPL I can't see it holding a lot of attention. On the other hand it may entice some more folk to give it a go.

Really enjoyed the honesty and variety of views. Theres even some radical alan simpson style controversial views. The Mutilator Some terrible ideas below. Any chance of talking to some of the young uns in fort william as a road trip interview. Find out domestic issues like meeting team etc and travel . And what they think about this opportunity to play every week. Fw boy of the match? What about reviewing man of the match votes and telling everyone how pish their votes were and why. Agree with result , disagree, or blind guys choosing. Worst techies of the week spot _ todorovs backward header in defence, etc. Best opposition player in next match. What to expect. Bobby linn well spotted!!!! Grasswatch _ weekly update on new pitch condition from groundstaff.... Aquifer watch- weekly pessimism from caleyd. Steward watch. Weekly update from those pesky kids in the stand whose wham bar gets stolen as a lethal weapon. Prediction league highlights......geeky. Well done.

The boys need game time. This could really aid McKay's development and could become a replacement for Curry when his loan expires. He can be ready to step in for us fully fit and high in confidence, which is a massive thing for a player.

As I've said before, I don't believe that any cup is a nonsense cup. Sure, some may be more important than others, but the effects on a team's confidence of doing well (or badly) are very real. Winning this cup in 2018 initiated a great run-in to the end of the season.

Wait for it when we go crashing out early doors the happy clappers it's a nonsense cup who wants to win this! I'll be buzzing if we win it

I agree. Perhaps theyve made it too limited? I think they could have raised a lot more money on these.

Was hoping this would be the year we gave our young guns a start after all Robbos hyping them up ! Might be a good move for wee Mackay get a few goals at Elgin surely

It's becoming very frustrating. Having watched all of the young players playing its clear have real potential. The likelyhood of Daniel getting game time with the senior options available was slim at the moment so going on loan and getting experience makes sense. However again like last season i see it as a waste of the talent and potential. To reach their potential they need to play first team football at the highest level possible. Playing with better llayers will improve them. You only need to look at Ryan Christie development to see that. If these guys get to 19 and still only have a handful of games for the club and dont make it for me the management will be responsible for the failure to maximise the potential. Are they better than senior first team players yet? Possibly not. Are they miles off it? Certainly not. I'd rather a year with them playing and improving from it rather than guys like Curry coming in taking up game time.

Solihull Moors away would do me nicely thank you (although IHE might not like going there just now..)
