I had other commitments on Friday so only saw the game today. Not pretty at times, especially in the first half, but a win is a win and we move on. Killie will be no pushovers, especially on that plastic pitch.

Was there other evidence apart from the two the rangers' players say so? If not then I don't think it would be right to dole out a lifetime ban on opposition players evidence alone. In fact I believe the player is intending to appeal the ten games.

I think it's a bit too late for this. Even winning tonight they would have to overtake Newcastle turning over an 8 point gap with 7 games to go and reverse quite a big goal difference. Allardyce has certainly changed their fortunes right enough.

That was a sickener. We controlled most of the game without really troubling their keeper. Had we picked better options in the final third in the first half we'd have won the match. Why Shaughnessy gave up on the ball for their goal I'll never know but, that not withstanding, where were our defenders when the ball came in? I felt JG should have removed Erhahon a bit earlier and brought on Dennis to see if he and Erwin could do something after we went down 1-0. He could have redressed it with the removal of Erwin for McAllister. On this showing we need to hope that the other teams slit each others throat as I don't see us helping ourselves. Unfortunately I don't think ICT will be quaking in their boots at the prospect of facing us.

FIFY

I've not looked and I'll take your word for it but, in that case, it shows how far their fans think they've fallen. As for the game. If we play to win and play as well as we can then I've no doubt we're better than Alexander's lot.

My second point covers this though. I think he'll be wanting to show his worth. Besides that. I'm not suggesting an automatic start. Just that he isn't left out because of pettiness.

We'd still be paying his wages so, if Goodie thinks his head is in the right frame, we'd be daft not to play him. In fact I'd go further. If he really wants that "bigger move", he'll bust a gut for the team.

I thought he already died. Will they re release Purple Reign?

Get real here people. Every player is looking for the best deal and some. like Doyle Hayes, are likely to command a bit more attention than others. Professional players are like most contract workers. They'll go where they get the best deal. The club put down a firm offer and wait to see if someone betters it. No harm. No foul.

I'm impressed. An idiot that can type while reversing. Take a bow FS. (Does that stand for F'n stupid?

Beep beep beep.

I must have misheard as I thought the Beeb said the German contingent were ok to travel now. ETA. It appears not the old firm believe this too. Austria set to face Scotland with full-strength squad - Not The Old Firm

It was akin to him giving a penalty to sevco as they walked out the tunnel.

No surprise that we end up travelling to Dingwall on a midweek, evening fixture.

I think it must be remembered that wee broonie refused to blood the young talent before he fecked off. Near half the Scotland squad gave up when he got the job so Berti had to try to rebuild during qualifiers. I still think he may have got it right if he had a little more time and a lot more patience from the supporters.

I was discounting Hamilton because, if we drew with them and all other results were as printed we could be in eleventh place on goal difference. My bad. We'd be 1 better off than Kilmarnock.

I think I updated this correctly. The above projection assumes there are no draws. Highly unlikely so I believe we're as safe as we can be under the circumstances. In fact I think a draw for us against anyone apart from Hamilton would guarantee our safety.

It isn't rocket science. Einstein not required. I think I'd already explained this far more concisely before today's result.

Theoretically, we can. What cost us was the four in a row home draws. Win one of them and we were almost certainly there. We didn't. We didn't set up with that mentality. We now need the manager to step up and get the team playing on the front foot to win one, just one game, in the next five to ensure we aren't dragged into any dog fight. Who would bet on us beating Dundee U, Motherwell, Ross County, Hamilton or a resurgent Kilmarnock?

IF we get that coveted 6th place we could do worse than give these lads a shot in the run in. We don't expect to get any better than 5th and some of the first team lads will probably be moved on in the summer.

Not for me. I don't get those who think he brings enough to the table. He doesn't do enough of the dirty part of the game to get a pass on not scoring enough for a number 9. There are plenty of non scoring strikers who would put in a shift and hold the ball up better.
