He had an off day. We all have them. I think he has proved that he has ability during his time at the World Cup; and he has been very good for us in the past.
We look a very good side. Taylor, Boyd-Munce, Hemming, Gogic - to name but a few - all had a great game. With the window open for 11 days, can we hang on to our players, though? Particularly Strain, Baccus and O'Hara?
I knew someone was going to write something like that, when I posted it. Ach, I will turn the other cheek like usual, though...
I thought he fouled a defender and was surprised the goal stood, to be honest. Still, I agree he looks good.
I'm all for encouraging ultras and creating a good atmosphere, but I agree that there's no need for the hard man routine. I suppose I could be a bit of a dickheid when I was young, though.
Great game today. I was a bit anxious at the end, despite the fact a 2-2 draw would have netted me £65.
I need to watch the highlights, but Strain was brilliant again, as was McMenamin. Good to see Mandron score and I was pleased that Carson got the reception he deserved. Entertaining, but a nail biting finish.
It looked like we should have had a penalty in the first half. Also will be interested to see why they were awarded one, I saw no appeals.
Top of the League!
I will not have time to do a dot count today. If someone could do one about 2 pm, then I will genuinely consider you to be the second greatest man to have ever lived.

How many walk ups are we likely to get tomorrow?
Currently, aye, assuming N1 wasn't available and Dundee have sold no more tickets.
I would anticipate ~7,300.
I think the weather may put people off on the day of the game., unfortunately.

I'm sure I read on P&B that the away end is looking like a sell out, with 400 tickets remaining at the time of the post (however, it was unclear whether N1 was available).
I will endeavour to check again either tomorrow night or Saturday morning.
For you it's an unpleasant surprise...?! 😧
Given our away form so far this season, in which we have scored one goal in 180 mins at lesser opposition, I think only our most optimistic fans will have seen this coming. 😉
Arbroath are rubbish. I think they managed one shot on target when they played us. We should have been 4-0 up at half-time, too.
I think Airdrieonians will be a surprise package this season. I also know a few Thistle fans who are quite optimistic. Morton and Ayr look like they might be quite handy, too. I think it will be a close run thing like last season.
I couldn't see a match thread for this, so thought I would start one.
Firstly, has anyone had their physical season ticket, yet? As I have still not got mine.
I would be optimistic about this game, but have a horrible feeling we're going to lose players. I think if we lose Strain we will struggle, as he is by far the most creative player we have. If we keep the current squad I think we will win this one 2-1.
