    You talk good sense. He must be better than he looked last night. But what is he? Excellent build for a target man but doesn’t look as though that’s his game.

    Seen enough already. It's curtains from me! He's poor.

    Look, McCall will bring in another forward or 2 next season plus Vaughan is back, Novak will be still here and we might decide to offer Donaldson a new contract.

    I'm already thinking where does he fit in?

    He's a 1 in 5 man plus tends to do rubbish in his second season at a club.

    Harsh, I know but McCall isn't giving Devitt a chance and Paudie for example so I think a lot of Bowyer signings will be shown the door.

    I hope Guthrie for now until the end of the season proves me wrong but based on last night that's not happening.

    He is not a target man, so he says, likes the ball to his feet. I am not writing him off yet. He had involvement in the second goal.

    So are we saying there’s some beef between the two of them?

    I'm hoping he signs this forward/attacking mid that was playing in Sweden. The we're back to the "big man/small man" combo that has served us so well in the past. Novak and Donaldson/Guthrie is not going to work - especially as it looks like Stu is telling our fullbacks to ping it into the box at every available opportunity. One forward to knock it down, the other to knock it in.

    Far too early to write him off.

    Not sure, but I'm sure someone could make something up.

    The swedish lad is a left winger I believe. He's scored a few but isn't a natural striker, more someone if played centrally that would be akin to a devitt or McCarten type.

    I doubt it. When Devitt was on loan here previously, McCall was at Motherwell. And looking at Devitt's career, their paths don't appear to have crossed.

    Somebody implied he wasn't in the McCall camp when McCall was here last. That shouldn't be surprising since Devitt wasn't even at VP during McCall's last spell! Imo, it's other posters making stuff up.

    AH, scrap that then. Although, a left winger would be nice!

    Exactly what I was thinking. I can't even remember him the first time.
    We're making stuff i suppose, because it's a weird situation. We've all been waiting for him to come back from injury, and when he does, he now can't get in the team (apart from 45 mins on his comeback).

    I honestly think we would have taken 1pt max from last 2 games if GB had still been in charge - players with limited quality, desire and confidence. Well done Stuart for at least making a real difference at half time last night

    That's what I think the other poster was insinuating but I think he's got his facts wrong.

    Glenn Middleon who we signed on loan from Rangers is a left winger. Before he joined us, he played 6 games in the SPL as a left winger.

    I don't recall him having even been included in the matchday squad as yet.

    I believe Jeremy Corbyn is soon to become available.

    Is it?

    Is it too early to say Devine, Anderson are done here under McCall?

    Point is I can't see him getting ahead of Novak or Donaldson and McCall will want to bring his own players in.

    If you look at last night's fixtures several clubs had very long journeys. Can't imagine why these were scheduled for midweek when it's difficult for fans to get there and the possibility of postponement is high at this time of year.

    You're right. That will teach me not to rely solely on my memory! :)

    Writing him off after about 75 minutes of football. He'll play parts of this season definitely. He start more games on the bench but will be part of it.

    No, they are finished but that's more to do with having 600 midfielders to choose.
