Satan

Early days of course. Only 12 games played so far. It'll start to look more realistic at the turn of the year, bottom 2 or 3 will drop off and the top 7 will split into 2 groups - 2 or 3 teams vying fir the title and the rest scrapping for the glory of playoff spots. Who knows where we will end up, especially when we start to pick up injuries.

I thought we signed him for the physical side of the game. Looked like he was giving as good as he was getting. If only he was as mobile as Billy.

Tbh I miss the match day programme much more. Absolute travesty that we don't produce them anymore.

Is there bonus points for how hard,high or long you can kick a football?

With only Raith, Arbroath & Hamilton scoring less than us we really should look to up our goals for tally. Tight at the back is one thing, but if the season continues to be so close at the top then goal difference will be very important.

Best team performance of the season so far, patient with the ball, organised without it. More than matched Patrick in the first half, won all the match ups we needed to. Slackened off 2nd half, seemed to be confused how to exploit the numerical advantage. Lots of crosses from both wings, many with no end result, I felt we needed a pass through the middle to open them up properly but Im not sure we have that sort of player who can deliver these balls and that is probably the only reason I miss Liam Polworth. Credit to our captain for his running, hold up and link play. Some shift he put in again and rewarded with a finely taken goal. Slightly shaky last 10, but multiple substitutions don't help when youre trying to see the game out. Ian McCall. Tube. Happy days.

Start fast. In hard. Repeat to end.

The expectation is different - we are better at sitting in and hitting on the break, something which doesn't usually go down well in front of our own support. When we do this away from home we make our well oiled band of travellers very happy indeed.

Are they not extinct?

Aye, the summer didn't yield the financial results he was expecting.

An article on BBC yesterday... Scottish clubs in financial 'perfect storm' of rising energy costs and cost of living crisis - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/63080244

We started the game with four (4) centre backs, young boys in both midfield and attack, add to that our backup keeper means it was not going to be a very cohesive or pretty display whether we won 3 nil or 1 nil. Job done, gums bumped. We move on.

Spot on.

Get a grip.

Oh how the Raith must hate this fixture.

Doubt they will remember after tonight's festivities.

You will have you wait for Dodds to tell us how it went.

Expect the home 'crowd' to dwindle as well if this form continues.

We shipped 4 against an average championship team, no surprise that a Premier team is finding it so easy.

Would the club not be due a percentage of monies owed to it by the CoCo for rental of the facilities? I'd assume that the football club is in the same position as the other creditors who aren't getting the full amount owed.

I get the impression that the concert income was always viewed as possible extra revenue. The ILI deal seems to me is the main 'new' projected income stream for the next 12 months .

We are missing some of our best players from last season - to injuries and loans ending. With Broadfoot also leaving this leaves a huge deficit in our experience levels, and the signings we have made (as well as not signing a proper fullback) have failed to address this. I'm not sure we have the leadership on the park to ride out these tough spells, or turn draws into wins. We needed some good signings this summer and I've yet to see any evidence that our management team has succeded in this.

Not great press, comes off even worse after its been spouted by scummy redtops. Difficult to get away from this without a foul odour. Definitely club related, despite idiotic claims to the contrary.

A first half to make your eyes bleed.

Certainly need a positive reaction today, after last week's lukewarm offering.
