Big G

I mean he looks a lot older 22. So the hard work of a paper round made him look older than he is.

Tell you what, if he is only 22 years old he must have had one hell of a paper round judging by what I saw on Wednesday.

Not heard a lot about our captain lately and noticed he wasn't in any of the new kit pictures. How bad is his injury?

He looked a lot like Alan Gow to me. Certainly not a youngster but he did play about 70 mins so would Gow's injury allow him to have done that.

As I said people may be dissapointed by the lack of stripes but I have to say after initial doubts I've grown to like it. Now if the sizing is better I will be giving my £40.50 to the shop later today.

Just back. The no.8 looked like Gow but played central midfield. Sounds like a broken record but we passed and kept the ball well but have little cutting edge. Not a lot more to be said really apart from Josh went off very early, Christie looked bright and Billy scored.

I'm going along with my wife and dogs. I don't think to many of the U20's will play as Yogi is still using players in different positions and will try this up to Sunday I think. Always a good night in Banff.

Those (like me) hoping for stripes may be disappointed. It's blue but very diifferent. P.S The sponsors logo (with the "eat fresh") looks good on the shirt.

Still no cutting edge and as the half progressed Brora sussed us and closed us down giving Tansey no room.

I'am heading north for this. Hope to see a better game than Saturday.

Played against Nairn on Saturday.

Am I the only person getting confused by what's being quoted to the press (or at least what's being printed)?

Ball retention at the World Cup was imperative because of the heat and conditions, but as Spain, Italy and a few others found out it had to be backed up by fast incisive attacking play. The best teams had both. A statement I've heard more than once in the last month is "Tikka Takka is dead R.I.P"

I guarantee it will be. It's a corporate logo and a Reg. Trademark.

Flat first half followed by a flatter second half. Passed and kept the ball well but posed little threat. Plus points: Draper cruised through at CB in the 2nd half and Meekings at right back was our most attacking player. Negatives: Vincent is still struggling in mid field and we seem to want every player to touch the ball before putting it in the box.

Ryan Baptie has not yet signed for us. he is still awaiting clearance from SFA.

At any point has anyone said Subway mascot would be at the stadium on match days? It seems to me it's being used in the media marketing of the clubs new sponsor. It's about time people stopped looking for any little thing to show outrage about and concert all their efforts in getting behind the club. ( Notice I say club, but still think Hughes is the wrong man).

Yes because a green monster and an oversized cat are so dignified. Why would a mascot embarrass fans. Most if not all club mascots are pointless and the Subway mascot is for a company not the club.

Maybe the design is so controversial that releasing it will affect season ticket sales and the powers that be are holding it back. I think it could be yellow and green with pictures of salad vegetables on it.

Aye I agree. Up until last night nobody over here had heard of the guy. Now he's more wanted than Bin Ladin was.

Hughes told STV that he has now gone back home but will sign him if it's financially right for the club.

Let's look on the positive side. The home shirt will be available long before the 2015/2016 season starts.

I'm sure they are absolutely gutted by this news.

Did the Chilian Panilla play at the TCS when he was at Hearts?

That would indeed be sensational, especially when you consider Arsenal's kit is now made by Puma. Oops! But you know what I mean.
