    If I was a voter in the US, I’d be asking why I can’t get my £5k now? They already have 3 branches of government. What’s stopping them? It’s almost as if they’re talking pish

    Can’t get my head around how that’s legal. They are suggesting that if it’s a legitimate ‘manifesto pledge’ then it washes. Bonkers.

    When I’m trying to be optimistic this is pretty much how I try to see things too OD. There is no doubt that SR was brought in as a partial panic but also to stabilise things a bit. There’s also no doubt he’s on a tighter budget, he’s suggested as much himself. We can’t possibly balance the books with the spending we’ve been doing and no clear financial rewards (big player sales, trophies and European football). That said, SR doesn’t seem to be stabilising things at all. If anything we are looking more erratic, shambolic and devoid of any structure, system or style. As the guys on The Terrace said last week, we’re getting all the shit SR traits without the good ones (hard to play against, battling, legs etc). I’m also looking at other clubs who have had to gut squads and start again (St Mirren, Motherwell, Falkirk and Dundee as comparisons rather than Hearts who are a bit more of an anomaly at this point) and they are doing much better than us. Competing with OF in games, looking well coached and generally gelling quicker with a clear style and structure. While there are clearly significant limitations to his coaching ability and all round approach, I continue to believe that SR has a degree of capability and should be able to settle us but I think there is a chaotic backdrop to his tenure in Cormack and possibly Lutz that isn’t helping.

    Should this not be the Autumn 2026 Transfer Window now?

    I expect it'll come right after the $5000 DOGE bonus and $2000 tariff refunds arrive.

    Nobody tell the PJMs about it, they'll have it on their honours list faster than you can say Summer Cup runners-up.

    We def got out boxed with just the 2 in midfield in first half at Pittodrie. Does leaving Aremu out mean we lack some grit in there? I think we might need to drop Nisbet for a bit and give Mouloua a shot as main striker alongside one of the ‘versatile’ guys. Maybe bring Nisbet in later to impact games.

    Is it fair to say we’ve way over spent in recent years and this is a cut back year? Not only with players but paying off managers. We gambled and speculated, doubled down, but then no Europe. It’s almost like a reset year, start from scratch. No long term contracts and hopefully maybe 6 or so of this group are good enough to build on next year? It’s very clear it’s been a no thrills window, very blue collar and practical. It’s been all doom and gloom. We’ve gone from the excitement of a last minute karlsson to a free agent freebie after the window closes. Club won’t say it but it’s a reset year. Not a fan of Robinson but he’ll get no love or breaks from the fans, and that’s harsh. We were perfect league cup, you can only beat who is in front of you. We played the top three teams from last year already, that’s a hard ask. Losing all 3 would not have been a surprise. We were shit last year and gutted the team, it won’t be good for a while, hard to expect us to compete with the best teams straight away, think we have to be fair and realistic. 1 pt from killie and Dundee is certainly disappointing, but throw in new players and the tough other games, were expecting the team to hit the running, and that hard. Said last season I’d give Thelin until Xmas before judging, doing the same with Robinson. Not seeing much positive to be honest, but got to give the guy a fair chance.

    There's probably eight of them not getting near (including hyperbole, they'll get a couple of games between them) this Robinson side too: Suman Tobers Milne Gyamfi Frame Devlin Briedl Palaversa Of the remaining twenty, I don't think there's a single player you'd be concerned about losing. Most seasons you could name at least one player who leave a big hole when missing. I can't think of anyone who fits that description. Maybe Robinson was right about Lyons. You could put a mix of any of those 28 on the pitch and not be significantly worse.

    I assume docherty isn’t happening then. that’s some size of squad, even if tobers doesn’t actually exist.

    Who knows what Robinson has planned for Saturday, but with Knoester fit I can see a return to 5-3-2 (which we've played in three out of four halves in the past two games). I'd play Milne as, despite his defensive deficiencies, he can at least step into midfield and is comfortable with the ball at his feet, something he did well at times under Thelin. Means Knoester can play on the left where he's more comfortable, and it should allow Ronan to push a little higher up the park. System doesn't suit Nisbet, but he's our top scorer.

    So this is our squad until January (unless there's other free agent movements pending).

    Our greatest victory in decades occurred because we didn't have a go at them. There are different ways to beat the scum, and glorious 0-1 failures in any style are worthless. We're not having a go at them at the moment for the same reason we're not having a go at Kilmarnock - because we lack the players in key areas to play the way that the manager wants to play. The one thing that past good Robinson teams couldn't be accused of was not having a go against teams better than them. They generally ended in glorious losses too of course.

    Ok both St Johnstone and St Mirren both end up on the wrong end of 0-1 defeats at the ends of the two arse cheeks. But my point is at least they had a fkn go, why of fkn can everyone else have a go at the scum apart from us 🤬
