  1. Someone on Pa&B suggesting McGrath could end up at Dons on a player plus cash deal and, while I don’t think that would be a great move for him, if that happens then I hope the player is Matt Kennedy.

    Not everyone’s favourite but I thought he was the only bright spark at the Fakes in his last season there - pacey and can take a man on and beat him.

    Hopefully it’s a moot point as we keep hold of McGrath and stop the hoofball.

  2. Brophy is good enough and Dennis has previously shown that he knows the way to goal.
    That said, I'd love us to sign a striker with some real aerial presence in the box. 

    I like Brophy. Shots on sight and offers more in his general play.
    Dennis needs a run in the team to show what he can do.

    I’d start Erwin before Main if we are to continue with one up top (and Brophy is out)

    What’s up with McGrath ? I’d forgotten he was playing until he sent that free kick into the stand.

  3. The league after today's results, thankfully Livingstone lost, but the worry is our next 4 games are looking like they could be pointless and the teams below us ALL have games in hand.
    Looking ahead to the end of the month, any bets where we'll be in the league by then?

    We’re odds on to be bottom by the end of the year, however, unlikely as it may seem, I do believe we’ll pull a couple of surprise results out the bag and only be 10th place - with County and Dundee below us.

    COYS !!
  4. A shambles at the ground queuing to get in in the pelting rain.
    Fighting with the stewards inside because of the shambles outside.

    Missed the first goal as wasn’t in the ground
    Didn’t see the second as distracted by the stewards.

    Soaked to the skin and we’re losing to a poor Aberdeen side.

    Should I have stayed home and put up the Christmas tree ?

    No. If I’m going to moan about the team use like to do it having witnessed it in the flesh.

    Very poor but I don’t see why we can’t get it back for a draw ……

  5. They are the away team so will more likely try to sit in and attempt to keep us from scoring. Especially after their last game.
    It'll only be tough if they succeed and if they can create and take chances.
    I'd have to say it would be a poor showing from us if they do - we are a lot better than them and really ought to prove it.
    Saints 3 v 1 Dee   McAllister, Brophy and Ronan

    Not sure he’ll get on the scoresheet but I hope he starts on Saturday. I don’t think the Dundee defence will be able to handle him.

    And certainly not Brophy !

    We should win comfortably, but we’ll need to keep 11 on the park - which means not getting sucked in or retaliating to what I expect to be robust, over enthusiastic challenges from a side determined to prove the County game was a one-off. Watch out for Adam and Griffiths in particular.
  6. Before the Hibs game we were a mess, no wins and dour draws were as good as it was getting.
    That game, against Hibs, IMO, was the best football we've played since that mini run we had last season around the Rangers victory.
    What a difference two wins make to the league position.
    Ross County up next, got to look for another three points.
     

    Think I’ll go to the County match. It’s only just over 2hrs drive for me and I think the offer of a pre-match visit to the Wimpy may swing it with the family.
  7. Just had a wee read on the Aberdeen forum, not a lot of confidence TBH.
    Their goalie is especially getting it, the weakest link according to quite a few.
    The Aberdeen support who will travel will collapse if we score first,they are on a knife edge.
    Shoot from anywhere, that's the way to win this game, seemingly. 

    I expect Brophy will shoot on sight - it’s what he does.
  8. Will not be at this match but will be watching on Sky.
    Difficult to call.
    Would normally expect an away win in this fixture, but had recently been thinking optimistically that their poor form would allow us a chance of getting our first victory of the season however, with Hedges coming back, I think a point is the best we’ll get on Sunday - and our winless run will continue into October…

  9. A wonder if wee mini mr t still absolutely honking?last a heard he signed for kings lynn or something, think he scored one off his arse for full season for last team

    I believe he did score for them in their last match - also think he got a red card in the first match of this season.
