16 (13x3)= Thompson (11/12, 12/13, 13/14) 15 (14) = Higdon (10/11) 13 (11) = Sutton (06/07) 13 (3) = Mehmet (09/10) 12 (8) = Obika (19/20) 12 (7) = Mehmet (08/09) 12 (10) = Dorman (08/09) 11 (10) = Gillies (00/01) *league goals in brackets

So Stephen Robinson's not having the best of weeks then.....

16 (13x3)= Thompson (11/12, 12/13, 13/14) 15 (14) = Higdon (10/11) 13 (11) = Sutton (06/07) 13 (3) = Mehmet (09/10) 12 (7) = Mehmet (08/09) 12 (10) = Dorman (08/09) 11 (10) = Gillies (00/01) 11 (7) = Obika (19/20) *league goals in brackets Updated as I'd made a couple of mistakes....

Arguably an assist for the 2nd goal last night as well: deliberately held off the defender to let the ball go run through, knowing Ilkay had space at the back post. Really intelligent play.

16 = Thompson (11/12, 12/13 & 13/14) 14 = Higdon (10/11) 13 = Sutton (06/07) 13 = Mehmet (09/10) 12 = Mehmet (08/09) 12 = Dorman (08/09) 11 = Gillies (99/00) 11 = Obika (19/20)

Jon is now amongst the elite few who have managed a double-figure goal return for us, as a top league club, in the past 2 decades: 16 = Thompson (11/12, 12/13 & 13/14) 14 = Higdon (10/11) 13 = Sutton (06/07) 13 = Mehmet (09/10) 12 = Mehmet (08/09) 12 = Dorman (08/09) 11 = Gillies (99/00) 10 = Obika (19/20)

JG on the radio... Lee Hodson had a nerve issue rather than a hamstring strain, which the physio has been able to resolve. Ross Wallace can manage 20/30 minutes at the moment if needed. Will cover for us at left back or central midfield.

Accies have serious issues at centre-half now. Easton / Woods started tonight: Easton stretchered off with a bad injury and Woods hooked at HT after a poor showing. The Accies' fans reckon he's a poor replacement for Sam Stubbs.

Talking of missing defenders.... Accies' first-pick centre-half, Brian Easton, has just been carried off with a suspected dislocated shoulder. If that's the case then he'll do well to be back this season. Hamilton 0-3 Aberdeen HT

Brian Easton, who's slow as a week in the jail, is back in the Accies defence after injury. Looks like the tactic is going to be to run at him rather than let him enjoy the physical battle with Obika. Chabbi though?

Looking forward to seeing the effect of the new man on Durmus as well. Sounds like they've got a great knowledge of each other's games. Also nice for the pair to have each other's company day-to-day when living far from home. Hopefully, we'll see the best of both of them.

See 49:30 - Sportscene, 2019/20: 02/02/2020: www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/m000f47j via @bbciplayer I think you're due a new pair of specs.

Looking at the highlights, Obika did his bit for both goals. Held off Darren McGregor (no mean feat) to win the corner for the 1st. Goal number 2: dragged the defender to the front post leaving space for Andreu to score.

For anyone planning on travelling from Ayrshire direction by train...... They're doing work on the line all day Saturday so it's a bus between Gilmour St. and Kilwinning. Trains running normal Gilmour St. to Glasgow.

According to Beuzelin after the game they will be playing to win on Wednesday night. He says a point will not be good enough. Given their defensive problems they may decide just to go for it and try and outscore us. They've only had 2 clean sheets this season anyway (compared to our 8). Today couldn't really have played out any better for us: early sending off then a power of work put in for the remainder the game as Celtic had to keep the foot on the gas. Accies though......
