Think its still far too early to say how things are going to go. The league is still settling down and this topic should be saved for at least another 10 games. All the teams are dropping points left right and centre and its too hard to tell as dundee, partick, dunfermline and ourselves have done nothing to suggest that they might go on a run of results. Think we will be right up there though and im happy with the team butcher is building. One thing is for sure! County will not be up there!! Wasnt that impressed by them and to be honest we handed them a victory on a plate. Lets see where they are come december!!

Send out lionel and rooney on loan.........................on second thoughts why would other teams want players that cant play football!!!!!!!

Good shout!!

League is by far the big priority but I also think its really important to us fans that we beat county in the semi after the last game against them. We're owed a performance after that one!!!

This is the most RIDICULOUS thread ever!! Renegade, are you winding us all up?!! We've just had a convincing win away from home. Fair enough we should be expected to win easily but 3-0 away is a very good sign for me. Butcher is clearly building a strong team but your wanting to change it completely and alter the formation!! its hilarious!! Thank f**k your not our manager!!

Kris Boyd. Part of me says he should never play again after what he did but he is the most natural goalscorer we have had in years. Thats what we lack and everyone in the country knows he would have put those chances away. you cant not pick him

Kenny Miller is not a natural goalscorer but i thought he was excellent last night doing what he does best - playing on his own up front, chasing defenders down, making runs down the channels and competing for every ball. I'll remember Kenny for those things and his cracking shot that hit the bar rather than his miss I had a great time at Hampden last night, the atmosphere was great and the performance from every member of the team was good. I think we're a centre-half or two away from being a decent team and i'm sure we'll qualify for the next Euros - hopefully under George Burley. What?!!! Yeah he was excellent at what he does best - missing great chances in big games!! The game last night, iceland at hampden, holland in amsterdam, italy at the san siro a couple yrs ago - shall i continue? Ok he has scored goals for us but the number of chances he has missed at crucial stages in big games far outnumber those. Its just not good enough

Main thing is the league but what a boost it would be getting one over dundee and county and winning the alba cup

Was at the game last night and couldnt believe kenny millers miss!! Dont know who is worse! Him or adam rooney!!!

Big BIG chance for revenge! We better see a big reaction from the players for this one as it means so much after that last farce Would have preferred to have pumped them in dingwall though!!!

They see last season's top goal scorer and he also reacts to chants etc. Good with the fans :angry05: Thats hilarious!! Think he scored 6 last season. Thats a big total to be proud off eh?!!! Better than Barrowman... our supposedly brillant striker on ?2,000 a week. ;) He must be one of our better strikers considering all them goals have been from the bench.... Who said anything bout barrowman being brilliant? Dont rate him either and wouldnt play either of them!! We have a decent striker in foran. We just need to find someone capable of playing alongside him. But no no no, you keep singing your rooney chants for no reason at all!!!

you seem to be defending him quite a bit!! Would he be in your starting 11? Without hesitation. Why is that then? You trying to tell me your happy when he does all these stupid tricks in his own half putting our defence in serious danger?!! EVERY GAME!!!

Def agree with that. Got a feeling butcher doesnt really rate mcbain though. Dont know why cos he is one of the most commited players at the club

We're actually going to give points to them this week!!!! Hayes Bulvitis Cox

you seem to be defending him quite a bit!! Would he be in your starting 11? I know that is not directed at me but I would play him against Partick. Its only a cup game and it is a perfect chance to see if he can bounce back. It is better than playing him in a league game which is im my opinion way more important than the challenge cup Its also the perfect chance to make changes to the team ahead of a massive game down at morton in 2 weeks. Mainly Lionel out!!!!

you seem to be defending him quite a bit!! Would he be in your starting 11?

settle down i know rooney missed a good chance yesterday but he isnt as bad as slow as barrowman who stands up front doesnt move and for a big man wins nothing in the air . Are you trying to say you rate rooney?!!!!

Doesnt deserve to wear the jersey!!! Ive never seen a slower player in my life and is movement is terrible. He doesnt look a goal scorer and i knew he would miss that chance yesterday. Along with lionel its another player that the fans love for no reason!! Its hilarious!! Im not a big fan of barrowman but the sooner he is back the sooner we can get this belter out of the team!!

Think all our new players have potential but really worried About our lack of experience in the team. It was plainly obvious that we lacked it yesterday. Surely the older heads like mcbain and duncan would have been better for a game like that. They have been there done that and they know what it means to play for caley th in big games. If we are to win this league(the hardest in the country) then i feel the older guys need to be in the team a lot more. Thats how we won the league last time

I think he has potential. He goes about his job quietly and keeps things simple. But his lack of experience told big time yesterday. I personally think duncan should have played instead of him yesterday as he would have offered a lot more in a game like that. Give stratford time though

Well how about most of our support get a grip and start realising that he is sh*te!! I cant believe how long it has taken for people to notice this. You could see from the very start how bad a player this guy was. He struggles in friendlys against highland league teams let alone spl and sfl!! All you want a full back to do is be defensively solid at the back, keep things simple and sometimes push forward to help out in attack. Richard Hastings does all that brilliantly. I dont want to be sh*tting it every time our full back gets the ball scared that yet again he is going to put us in yet another dodgy position!! Yet everyone adores him. He pulls off all these tricks that he shouldnt be trying anyway and the fans love him and sing his name. It hides the fact that he should just be keeping simple and im very surprised butcher hasnt told him that. The guy is a liability and the sooner he is out the team the better!!

An absolute DISGRACE yesterday. I still cant believe that performance. None of them deserved to wear the jersey yesterday. It was such a good performance last week down at dundee and things were looking so promising. But to serve up that yesterday in one of our biggest games which meant soooooo much to the fans is nothing short of disgusting. Il always back the team all the way but it was hard yesterday when there was such a lack of fight and passion. For me the players all cheated the supporters
