It maybe that those on the seats roundabout you had season tickets , but moved to other bits of the stand to sit with mates ( who also probably had season tickets ) but moved to sit next to their mates

I hope he does well , showed some nice touches on Tuesday , and a wee bit of pace at times , felt he was playing a wee bit out of position on the right , and also felt we played better with Magennis and Morgan playing wide , which for me means Dale will best be suited playing just being one or two strikers . Playing for us is a great opportunity for him , and I hope it brings the best out of him , especially if we concentrate on playing football and not just hoofing the ball up the park.

Was impressed how Twp footed he was on Tuesday , that will be quite handy taking free kicks round about the box

Think we missed the experience of Irvine and Sutton who might have have the team a bit of muscle , though the referee should have made two bookings in the first five minutes which would have calmed down the hammer throwing antics. We played well in patches and learned loads ,

So having seen both games , what do you think our preferred formation will be ? I,m thinking we will go with a sort of 4-1-4-1 formation , with four attack minded midfielders that can switch positions , and at times have us playing 4 -2 - 4 , thinking there will be massive competition for places .

We could offer them a couple of youngsters on loan and pay their wages , and offer them 30k

Used to slag him , but he had not a bad record at Saints

Won't be surprised if he ends up at Alloa. Ayr or Airdrie , has always looked decent in pre season , and then doesn't get his chance , might gain in confidence with regular games

Keeping watch ?

We have signed Two Stewarts , Hilson , Reilly ( I almost typed Carmichael ) , Kirkpatrick and Buchanan , if two of them are goof , two average and two poor , we will have done better than the previous five transfer windows

Carl Finninghan ?

Getting old and getting players mixed up . Sorry

And Carmichael

Dale Hilson is one of those players that can play a few positions , which is quite handy if you want to change things over the course of the game . Played in the SPL as a 16 year old , played for Scotland at under 19 level and has played about 150 senior games , and last season played for a club that finished higher up the league than us . Not a bad signing I would say

Dale Hilson had a great game against us when QoS came for the first time last season , more or less running the show on the left side , but the previous season when he came on as a sub against us he barely touched the ball ( that's because it was IP in the air all the time )Think Jack might get the best out of him

Greg Stewart on a seasons long loan at Pittodrie , do we get %10 of that , as I,m sure now it won't be long til Kenny goes down to Brum to join Harry . Wonder if we get a %10 cut of any sell on clause , should this transfer deal have a sell on clause .

Say £15,000 and %30 of any future transfer fee ( they might fall for it )

Heard Calum Waters has signed for Killie , so we can forget about him signing for us .

Still thought Sutton offered something , and gave us options over the course of the game , wonder if it would be worth using him as s strikers coach

Dale is a left sided midfielder , with a bit of pace , who could play up front if required , I think if we go for him I it will initially be as a squad player , with the hope that he improves playing with better players . Don't think it would have a massive impact on our playing budget . Got a feeling Ricky Gillies might be his agent

Raploch boy who started off with Dundee Utd , capped for Scotland at youth level , played very well against us for QoS last years.

I think Smith will play in Mallans position , occasionally providing cover for Magennis or Morgan , which will give Kirkpatrick the odd start until either Morgan or Magennis move on As for Sutton , I think it might make sense to keep him and use him as cover , and maybe even as a striker coach .

great quiz , got 80 , but it would have been more if I could spell Gonglaves , Quintongo and Innes , but well done to whoever put it together

I,ve suspected for a while that there's been interest in Morgan , also think there's a possibility of us losing Magennis next season . Hence why we are signing so many players early doors so we have our replacements within the squad , my preferred option is we arrange a deal which allows us to loan the player for the rest of the season.

Impressed , looks like a natural finisher , looking forward to the start of the new season
