Pretty sure it WAS McGinn.
Yeah I thought it was McGinn as well, Sky stats gave it to McShane.....they're probably wrong [emoji1] -
Looked at the stats today and was surprised to see McShane got the assist for the first goal, thought it was McGinn that passed it and shows what I know, nowt...well done McShane and thought he played really well today...as did McGinn....
They didn't seem to give an assist for the 2nd goal, maybe because Morgan just did it all himself [emoji3][emoji3] -
I said exactly that to my nephew at full time. The United defence couldn`t cope with him and the defence looked shit scared every time he got the ball
They did indeed, it didn't come to anything and in fact eventually he ran the ball into the keepers hands but there was a run down the right at 2-0 where they looked as if they had no idea what to do and just kept backing off till they were almost in their 6 yard box.... -
They've been sniffing around him for a while. Any lingering doubts they had will have been put to bed today.
Maybe they weren't watching though...?
Fingers crossed.....being optimistic here I'm thinking he will stay, might mean he walks for not a lot at the end of the season then so be it...I don't need to balance the books mind you so easy for me to say [emoji4] -
Who's bids have we knocked back?
Burton Albion during the summer wasn't it. -
Good news, with the current managerial teams coaching he can become a really solid CB! Did really well when he stepped in for Davis and seemed to grow in confidence as well...

Think Jack Baird has proven in the last few games just how potentially good he is. Not a single foot has he put wrong.
He is more than worthy of a new deal and has bags of promise.
Indeed, thought he was excellent on Saturday!
He's young and will make mistakes but hopefully will learn from them, worth a new deal for me......He does need experience beside him and hopefully Gary Mck decides to stay and we can replace Webster with a decent CB to give us competition in there.
-
Thought he did really well when he came on today, tough against a good hibs side but for me he did ok... definitely have him in our squad next season if possible!
-
I thought Stevie was superb today, as others have said we should appreciate the talent whilst we are allowed too, what an unbelievable goal that was, only he could score that!
-
It was utterly fantastic, a number of fans round me and my son put our hands to our faces in awe...did that just happen! Pretty sure Rory Loy did something similar!
Very talented boy and hope he goes onto further his career, really he stepped up today and I thought MOM by a stretch! -
I thought all the team played well today including McGinn with Utd taking their chances. If we had done that in the 1st half we would have taken the trophy back to Paisley
Again agreed, thought he did ok, worked hard, pushed us on...First half missed chances cost us...
Flood was annoying but the best player on the pitch in the end and won them the game in the 2nd half, he'd get a game for anyone in that league imo -
I'm sure they'll be shaking in their boots at that first half performance which saw us... drawing against 4th place United.
The reality is simple. We are in a hellish league position with 7 games to go. If we are going to extricate ourselves from it, we will need to play far better than we did today.
Must admit I didn't think we were that bad today, maybe I'm easily pleased nowadays but thought we did ok, seen far worse....
Obviously we still lost so not quite good enough but we had 3 glaring chances in the first half and when you don't take those good chance it will come back to bite you, as it did...We looked a little tired midway through the 2nd half when they scored and that was the game for me as despite some pressure we couldn't get a break.
Can't think of anyone who played really poorly and thought a good few had decent games....Morgan was a little frustrating in that I thought he did well till his final ball or strike at goal but he's a young lad and will learn and improve.
Onwards and upwards and next Saturday is vital, feel we must win and no matter what we have to back the team... -
Players are only worth what other clubs will pay for them, not what fans think they are worth. McLean was sold to the only club that bid for him as was McGinn. We have some good young players but if they were that good more clubs would be showing interest.
That is of course is true, but it's the timing and value of it that seem strange - if it's all accurate.
If he's worth £200k now can't see that changing dramatically come the summer regardless of where we end up -
Must admit disappointed if we accept £200k for him, perhaps I'm being naive but he seems worth more than that, especially if he helps keep us up. Was hoping for double that...Again maybe I'm being naive.
Pretty sure he has another year to go so surely worst case he'll still be worth £200k come the summer so not sure why we'd accept that now.
Hoping the figure is just paper talk... -

Fair point, but if it means shunting Irvine across to right back whilst losing Naismith, I'm not sure that it will strengthen us.
To be fair I reckon he has to better at right back than he is at left back....worth trying him on his natural side if we can bring in a decent left back.
It's what i reckon the manager will do fwiw.

I don't know if getting rid of gordon was incompetence or a tactic to pave the way for old pals.as far as I'm aware there is only 3 centre backs at the club now.and I know this is something I keep banging on about but this is a big part of the reason we are were we are. no one challenging for positions.its easy to stroll about the park when you know your a shoe in every week.
Appreciate might not quite be what you mean but think the actual reason given was to free up a wage to try and then get in a holding midfielder as we're clearly short in there, I could be wrong on that...regardless a total cock up by Rae!

Don't think we can recall in the first 25 - 30 days of the loan, unless it's an emergency. Not sure of the actual number, but it's something like that.
Wonder if manager less, bottom of the league & can't defend for peanuts counts as an emergency.....
-
Been outstanding. What a mess Rae made of that, hopefully our new managers first act is to recall him ASAP.
How does the loan system work, can we recall when we want? -

Broke down again, not expected back any time soon. Another long term treatment table sitter.
Bad news if so.....he really needs to find a way of getting more strength in that midfield as playing 2 wide men and Mallan isn't cutting it

Feck never seen this thread ... delete mine please.
It's a long, lonely walk for a losing manager across the pitch at the cheaper insurance direct stadium.We will likely go 4-4-2 again. Mallan and Hutton in the centre of midfield, Webster and McKenzie at the back and Langfield in goal.
Who's going?
What's the latest on Quinn, anyone know? We really need to beef up the centre midfield and make us at least hard to beat....teams ghost through our midfield and get to our pretty weak defence with ease!
-
Bear in mind there was also Rae's rant to the dugout about Mallan at Raith .. I think everyone heard that
What did he say? Mallan for me has been very poor so far this season so genuinely interested...he seems to have found Kenny Maclean's Xbox FIFA type passing this season in the games I've seen... -
One of the most interesting things about today was the sub of Webster.
3-1 down at home with 20 odd minutes to go, he swaps the centre half for another centre half.
Webster clearly wasn't injured, but was having a nightmare. It seemed like Rae did it to humiliate him.
It was a bit odd but Webster was terrible today, perhaps a message albeit a bit late...
Webster wasn't alone...Mallan was brutal....as was Naismith, Irvine Langfield and most of the rest!
Morgan got pass marks and at least showed some fight and talent.... actually thought Hutton was okish and at least showed for a pass now and again
Reckon Rae will be lucky to see the next couple of games out, what has happened, last year he did a decent job of steadying the ship and signed ok during the summer or so I thought...
Brutal stuff....

first real test off our new owner .
seems strange, very quite from our chairman,
no show off support,
does he want his own man in charge,
if so ,,we wont have to wait long,
on wards and upwards,
Yeah Gus could be back soon, apparently he's a big fan [emoji53] -
Think he needs to be given more time, I've only been to the Morton game so far this season and we were crap that day and sure we've been just as bad or worse since but still 4 league games just isn't enough to justify a sacking imho....
It does feel like we have a decent ish squad so if he can find a line up that works who knows....

Great day today, we won whilst not at our best and went top of the league....shows how far we've come.
I had a bunch of German exchange students at the game today who absolutely loved the whole vibe and overall atmosphere, we should savour this.. We can't play brilliantly every week and sometimes we have to win ugly, it's still 3 points at the end of the day.
