0-1 Sarsfield with a 25 yard free kick. Bit against the run of play as Boca had started the brighter. Boca had to clear one off the line after goal as well. Good game this so far.

Would be okay with Martinez but would be much happier with Rico’s suggestion and would like to think club would not stand in Robinson’s way. Please don’t let it be Naismith.

Boca Juniors v Velez Sarsfield on Premier Sports 2 shortly.

River lose again. Now 4 games in a row in the Clausura they have lost without scoring. First time they have ever lost 6 domestic games in a row in their history.

Tigre v River on Premier Sport just now. Mid way through second half a. River still not scored. And Tigre just have 1-0.

Be interesting to see if we have a game plan for this, as we've lacked one in the first two games. Dundee beat us by playing the kind of football I thought we'd be playing under Robinson; high pressing, quick balls forward over the top of our defence, energetic midfield, pace up front. Instead in the first half we attempted to play it out from the back, were too slow and created nothing. Second half we went 4-4-2, stretched it a bit and moved it quicker, but had two guys who aren't wingers playing as wingers. If Robinson thinks all we need to do is get Lyons and Ronan in the team and start the same formation and tactics again, and it doesn't work out, then don't come out and claim the players just didn't have the desire. He has a week to think of an actual game plan.

Unfair comparison. Mouloua was trying to win the ball and hold it up, and took every knock he got, stood up and went again. On the ball he was also driving to the byline. I don't know if he's good enough to be starting games for us yet, but in terms of a project, there's something to work with. That's in complete contrast to Lazetic turning away from the ball to barge into a defender (something he appears to have passed on to Jack Milne) and Olusanya constantly looking for a free-kick to hide his inefficiencies as a footballer.

Nope still on the go but with the changed recipe. Magnums are still on the go too, now in many different varieties and very, very small.

In life or with the ice lolly? Could you find a spare 5 minutes to try one and let me know? Not right this instant of course.

Can you give me your email address? I've removed you, so I'll send a new invite to you. Do a private message if you dinna want to post it.

I didn't know a Feast was still a thing. I thought they were rebranded as a Magnum something or other.

Right from the start our keeper was hoofing long balls towards Yogane, who, unsurprisingly, isn't any better in the air than on the ground.

I was never a fan. There’s too much going on

I also think today showed that we’ll look for the Geiger/karlsson/aouchiche loan signings in the next two/three weeks. It’s def a transition year, and the goal is to set a standard, but we still majorly lack creativity. Plus a legit center mid. I get we were missing lyons in the middle today, but he also went missing last week. No over reaction, is what it is, reality check. Plus looks like we signed the new papa gueye today, a central players well played out of position.

Lazetic then.

A 15 year old who looked more like a footballer who would create chances than the man he replaced Not having a go at Olusanya- we all know his limitations- but the manager / recruitment team have signed players that are a definite downgrade on even some of the project players and the 40 yard crossfield hoofs up to Nisbet Yogane and Olusanya, while being unable to defend is genuinely worrying Didn’t think Mayo would be great for us but maybe more aggressive than Milne Both are not good GW is not a defender Communication at back is lacking- no leader, and Muller looks like Bobby Clark when there is little chance of him getting close to the ball Midfield offered little protection but one v ones we were second best all over the park Robinson said last week that we wouldn’t have won the game last season as though he had installed a fighting and winning mentality- he just got lucky Today showed how weak a squad we have built and he needs to take some responsibility for that

Lo! Our mighty defence - all in white What a resolute, glorious sight! Bevan made them his bitch left for dead on the pitch like a drunk seagull's skittery shite

Sadly, we go again on Saturday 15th August at 3 pm when Dundee come up the road to have another crack at us, this time on League Cup duty. If we play as well as we did today, then Dundee will comfortably win 4-0. 😡

The Dons just got beat by the Dee F*ckin' hell, oh deary me We were worse than shite And I think I just might Drown all my sorrows with tea

Müller, Armstrong and Nisbet the only ones to get pass marks, and even then a 6/10 at best. Mouloua to be fair to him puts himself about and works hard, and I think there's some potential in there. However, Guiness-Walker has some neat footwork, but as a defender I'll be surprised if he makes it at this level. Constantly out of position, can't tackle, can't pass. In the first half Yogane would face up to two defenders, we were crying out for a full-back to overlap and offer an option, and Guiness-Walker just stood back and watched him. A horrendous performance. Give Mitchell Frame everything he wants and get him in the team ahead of him. Played better in the second half when we went 4-4-2/4-2-4, but Briedl I'm hoping is just trying to settle in and can improve, I pray the Mighty Belgian is better than Olusanya, and I'm not sure I'm that stuck on Mayo. What's our game plan and style of play? Improved at 4-4-2 but have we signed a team to play that? We don't have any out and out wingers. Olusanya getting 80 minutes because the alternative was only 15 years old. Only positives really is at least we have quite a few players to come back. Lobban, Tobers, Knoester, Frame (?), Ronan, Lyons, Ntelo, and if you want to count him, Bilalovic.

That was worse than anything under Thelin. Abysmal from start to finish. Long balls into corners seemed to be our only attacking plan. Aremu and Briedl were complety over run in midfield. Cadden and Guinness Walker were roasted by a Dundee’s wingers while ours offered nothing. Cannot say I will be rushing back to watch that again.

The Hearts ladies team have emulated their male counterparts by getting knocked out of the Champions League.

Glad I was at stenny today. Heard bbc on way home and they weren't kind.

Well that was everything I expected and less. Subjected a 15 year old Nottingham Forest fan to that too. His comment 'this is like when Ange was our Manager' was too kind. Hes adopted partick thistle as his scottish Team. They have less misery

Worrying for me is that today’s midfield was no better than last years midfield. I think Ronan and Lyons are good signings, and I think aremu is decent, but concerned briedl is the new palaversa, and neither wide player looks an upgrade on what we’ve had in recent seasons. A good midfield make your defense look better and creates chances plus scores goals. A bad midfield gives what we got today.
