And a clean sheet. See hearts and Ross county lost, so happy with the win!

Job done. Nice that we are developing a style of play. We are still work in progress but a win is a win.

I think Ambrose gets worse each week

Today is a day we lack a threatening 9.

Move McGrath to 10 and bring on topi!!

Good to see Milne play, keen to see what he can do in one of his more natural positions. to be fair to be morris, he’s been less shite than expected and has a goal and assists this season. He’s a confidence player so tough on him if dropped. Still, he is shite and hopefully is fazed out.

I think morris is dropped for topi and McGrath is on the right. Think gueye keeps his starting place. Wondering if shinnie or sivert gets rested for ante, but unlikely. Think we see ante in the second half. 3-0, changing my scorers, sokler topi and McGrath.

Done everything asked, won every game, and it’s clear he’s implementing a culture and style, not just coaching a team. Players seem happy, positivity around the place, the one player he’s known and signed seems a good addition, and in game management he’s had a couple of games where half time adjustments were needed and he did just that. i think an A is fair, can’t be A+ since performances haven’t been perfect. B+ is a little harsh, what else are you expecting from him/what else could he have done?

Think it was Burrows that said when bojan’s departure was confirmed that we are continuing to look at ways to strengthen the squad until the window closes, I assume that means more to come in? another forward? Another winger? Perhaps another central defender and Macdonald and or Jensen moves on? thoughts? Any gossip/rumors out there besides the u20 defender that I think was shot down, plus the st johnstone forward??

Confirmed, killie are in Denmark next Thursday, then pittodrie next Sunday.

You mean it gives killie another midweek game while we have a week to rest and prepare for the league game. Hopefully they are away and travel next Thursday too.

Love the ambition of miovski, great move. And Ferguson, Ramsey, ramadani. And then there’s Connor Barron. Reading and listening to the shit being spouted this week, did Barron join a sinking ship??

I expect Topi to start in place of Morris, McGrath moved to the right as he was when Vinny came on last week. I also expect/hope to see Ante play but I’m thinking he comes off the bench. Good game for both of them to make debuts. team more or less picks itself, confidence is increasing, expect a good performance. Ideally we get a shut out, two conceded in league play and both somewhat avoidable. That needs improved. 3-0 us. Sokler 2 and McGrath.

Wish him nothing but the best, a model signing, a class act, and a very good player. where’s Duk? The ongoing silence is a little bizarre.

I’m with you, I have my fears and I expressed them yesterday, but I do want sokler to come good. I still don’t see us spending on another forward at present when we have sokler Ambrose and gueye. JT asked for time to develop the squad, I think adding a fourth striker, 5th if you include bavidge, would be reckless spending at present. miovski was a model pro and a tremendous signing for us. Such a likeable guy. I don’t see sokler as much different, except he maybe doesn’t smile as much. I’m so wanting him to succeed, and if we recall miovski’s first league goal for us was a penalty, I hope sokler gets a break and gets one and confidence rolls from there. FWIW, sokler is better in the air than bojan, hopefully he gets on the end of a few crosses from the new boy!

I can only assume Jensen wants guaranteed football. I also would like more Scots in the squad so this would have been a good thing. But yes, as stated, bit of an odd one. Unless Jensen and mcgarry are moving on and he’s a left back too…..which to Rico’s point, would start the clear out of those not worth keeping.

What makes you so sure we’re signing a replacement? What was Ambrose signed for? I’d assumed he was signed and he or sokler became our 9. Sign another 9 when miovski goes then we have one more forward than last season and less games this year since no Europe. That doesn’t add up to me. While I’m having my doubts about Ambrose and sokler, I’d be surprised if we signed another starting forward.

Thanks man, I’ve looked there before and couldn’t even tell if they were legit jerseys. Decided against it, most likely hoping for a second hand one that the buyer never wore!

Sorry for the selfish post, anyone know where I can buy the northern lights top? Missed out last year but still keen to get it, adult large. Willing to buy very good /excellent condition second hand too!

I agree, his movement is good and he’s getting chances. But he’s got to take them. Confidence comes from goals. Two years ago bojan scored in the second and third league game of the season, hit the ground running, sokler needs league goals.

I’m still willing to give sokler time. After the window closes it will become clearer since we’ll have all pieces in place by then, hopefully one or two more on board. Even once miovski leaves I think it helps him, rather than miovski sitting on the bench watching. We have sokler gueye and Ambrose, then bavidge. Right now, season to date, that’s not a great bunch. But we’re winning and scoring goals, so that’s ok for now. But once we stop winning the pressure increases.

Worth a look??

To be fair, st mirren are what most of our league are, it’s a poor league. Maybe hearts are decent but other than the old firm, this is what we play most weeks. All winnable game as long as we show up. One game a week really helps JT do some work and develop the team. Add a decent winger, we have depth in center mid once clarkson and polvara are fit, we just need a center forward scoring goals. Hope it’s sokler but he needs to fire league goals quickly or his confidence will go.

Molloy has been pretty solid first two league games. However, I’m not sure if st mirren were big up top but I don’t recall him winning many headers. Is he poor in the air?? Poor goal to lose but of the three I think ruby should have got it away. vinnie looked lively, I’d rather see him start over Morris…... although new guy starts over both. Thought sokler was poor and Ambrose just doesn’t look very good. Gueye looks like a decent player to bring off the bench. Starting to think a new 9 is needed. didn’t think we were great today, but second half I though we were in control. we’re also buying time until another starting player or two comes in. Worried about sivert seeing red after the early booking but thought he handled it well. Today, sivert booking and shinnie getting hurt, it’s a day a solid third center mid is needed. Hope that’s ante. Lastly, we have a few too many divers for my liking, McGrath in particular.

Thank fuck morris can’t shoot!!
