Maybe our new 11 can adapt to that plastic pitch fake ground better than their new 11?

I see the Germans have started voting for Nazis again. That's not going to end well, it certainly didn't last time.

We couldn't beat Killie at home so I don't see how we beat them away from home. Unless we get a new manager by then.

Completely against the run of play Sociedad make it 2-3.

Elche v Real Sociedad been decent so far. Sociedad were 0-2 up but reduced to 10 at start of second half and Elche now got it back to 2-2.

Any interest in a Survivor Pool or Pick em pool?

I've fucked about with the app and I can't find any settings that specify who can go in the flex spot.

I'll check the scoring settings.

I think Robinson is seeing exactly what we are and is really just looking to protect his players at this moment in time. Which is fair enough, prefer laughable post match deflecty comments than chucking players under the bus. Agree re the press and also agree the changes in the front line formation don't help. That there has been huge turnover of the squad and the fixture list hasn't been kind to compound the team of strangers problem is a fair retort to that stat list. The big problem Robinson has is that even if he's 100% right and everything will come good in time he doesn't have that time. This weekend is must win and it will get all kinds of toxic if we don't. That said a win and a good performance (stop laughing at the back) could be a huge shot in the arm and Killie are a bit shit too so there is some hope. Thing is if we were to go out with the very tough trips to Motherwell and Hibs following so quickly after it's not implausible he goes into the international window either a manager under huge pressure or sacked. I don't think he would get sacked personally, I think burrows relationship with him would buy him a bit more time but colgate has been ruthless in the past. Fucking huge week for Robinson regardless though.

I could be listed on the subs bench as a trialist. Just ten minutes or so in the car for me to Rugby Park

OMD - I Was Only Dreaming

Not sure on this, as bear in mind its a lot of travelling involved for this one!

The thing is, even without the stats it's very clear, christ knows what Robinson is seeing. However, despite all the stats, there isn't a huge amount between being a team that is shite and one that can put a run together. We're one or two away from having a serviceable side. Until then, I think he can work a lot on the pressing side. It's very disjointed. Perhaps from the constant changing of the front 2/3. A working press would see a lot of the statistics change in Robinson's favour. If he ever works out his best midfield then this should make it easier. I don't think he's a great coach to be honest.

Interesting thread here, pretty damning actually, on why we are so rubbish

Will RedZone still be on Sky?

Aye, that's bad news. The Channel 5 coverage last year was borderline unwatchable.

Just seen that Channel 5 have the 6pm and half 9 games on a Sunday with Sky only having the late games. Bit disappointing as found the Channel 5 coverage to be shite in the past compared to SKY coverage.

Just a reminder that the draft is set for Wednesday at 7.30pm.

I think that was more a case of Calderwood throwing Leighton under the bus.

0-0 draw against the hun, after Langfield went off injured. Kenny Miller booted him in the head. An accident of course. His last appearance for the Dons, freed that summer, with a year left on his contract. Bossu - Kept goal when the mighty Peterhead, hit four against us, in a pre season friendly, that season. Alarm bells were ringing then, as he looked as though he had won a competition to be goalkeeper for the night. Supposedly signed on the recommendation of Jim Leighton.

JC was going through a phase of playing back up keeper in League Cup as he also played him away to Ayr Utd in the previous round and from memory kept a clean sheet. It was a mental first forty five that night at Rugby Park with all six goals in the game coming during that period. Am I imagining it, or did Bossu not get subbed on in a game against the original huns not long after that and keep a clean sheet 🤔
