Aye was going to say don’t really remember Bowat from the U21 games. Another centre back seems an odd move when we have deficiencies elsewhere in the squad. Maybe moving to 3 at the back? Left sided as well seems odd as we already have two left sided centre backs and two left backs. Seems overkill to sign a third.
Coming round to the view that Sokler isn’t going to be the replacement for Miovski. Think he is a decent forward but as someone has said his best performances have come playing with Bojan as a front 2. I don’t think you can fault his work rate but he just doesn’t look like he will score many goals especially as a loan striker. Think we will need to get in another striker in to either play along side Sokler or more likely to replace him.
3-3 after VAR gave France a penalty equaliser in 90th minute. Just going into extra time. Game is on BBC iPlayer if anyone want to catch last 30 minutes.
City Group own 12 clubs world wide. As well as the ones listed the own clubs in Belgium Italy, India, Japan, Brazil, Uruguay and China. Have to question how they get round the club ownership rules.
Would think they will have to as they will be shattered as they spent 90 minutes chasing the ball tonight. Brann were better team by miles but just didn’t convert their dominance into goals.
Money. Getting rid of the reserve league was seen as a way of reducing squad sizes to allow clubs to save cash. As Wee Toon says now with teams having up to 16 players possibly playing in games I cannot see it teams being able to finance big enough squads to bring it back. Personally I think getting rid of the reserve leagues was a mistake at the time.
St Mirren will be strongest team we will have faced so far. They easily beat Hibs after playing last mid week and although Bergen are a step up in quality they are at home and no travelling to contend with. Can’t see Thelin changing starting XI from Monday if everyone is fit. Issue is what we do if we need to make subs as from Monday’s showing Gueye and Ambrose are not ready at the moment for first team football. If Miovski is gone before this game we will struggle.

Evening Express linking us with a loan move for 19 year old Chelsea midfielder Leo Castledine. As I said before woukd rather give game time to one of our own players than than develop a player for somebody else.
