should secure a top 6 finish and at least one semi!

Hopefully the Mrs is up for it that day then.

Raith have a game in hand though

Routine win against poor quality opposition. 

Hopefully get better when Barron and the two strikers come in. 

The seemingly endless search for a decent left back and attacking midfielder continues. 

Should have been so much more than routine though

Ramirez missed 2 absolute sitters AND passed up 3 more than decent chances on top of them

If we had a proper striker we would have won 4 nil against Peterhead and 4 or 5 nil tonight 

[North_Andy_Dandy]

2 wins out of 2, on our way to our first group stage progression since the 07/08 season.

[fine-n-dandy]

Still got the 2 better sides to play ?

Yes because proper striker don't miss, you've forgotten that he had an excellent goal taken off him tonight as well, he really should be on 12 goals already.

Aye he had a stinker. 

Folk get all sensitive though when it's pointed out. 

[BonnieDon]

Good result. Another 90 mins in the legs. Ramadani looks a good player. 

Goodwin clearly not overly impressed by Bates. Wouldn't be surprised nor disappointed if he were to depart this summer. Same applies with McLennan. 

Ramirez needs everything put on a plate. Looking forward to the arrival of Miovski and Luis Lopes.

Hancock looked good in glimpses. A loan move would benefit him. A new left back is needed.

Ffs Ramirez.

 

When does Bojan arrive ? 

Hahaha, so Bojan would do better? What you basing that on?

I'm looking forward to having attacking options so we aren't reliant on one guy. 

Like any sensible supporter would.

Nah it just wasn’t his night really. He missed one absolute sitter & deserves all the shite he gets for that but the chopped off goal & other ‘sitter’ were just a bad day at races. Also unlucky with a decent header. 
he could easily have had a hatrick or 4 on another night. Unlucky for 2 one round post should have been on target at least & the sitter was just stinking. I bet he’s far more pissed off with himself than anyone else is

 

also could have had at least 2 maybe 3 assists. Still early season yet

It didn't cost us. 

We have reinforcements arriving. 

We move on.

I agree with that. No guarantees he or Duk would have done any better tonight though.

Exactly. All good & still a lot of fine tuning to improve on.

You canna be defending that miss in the first half pal come on to fuck ?

[fine-n-dandy]

I view these shitey games as preseason games still. Raith game is where season starts. Only team close to level of teams we will play in league. Hope we’re close to the side we want for league games by that point

[Bamber]

so I make it that we are the only premiership team who are undefeated.We could do with a better GD

Some decent stuff tonight. Could and should have been six. 

Missing out on Europe might be a blessing in disguise.

[fine-n-dandy]

@Millertime

you see. Your pre game fantasy excitement has seen it all ruined by that one absolute sitter miss & longtime ire of Ramirez. 

The team is only about 60% complete at moment as well.

Sensitive or bored?

Wee boozy looked fantastic tonight. Duncan also promising. Add in Barron & few new signings & we are golden. 
 

Still not sure on defence tbf. 
Roos at that shot/cross he spilled for a corner was baaad. 

Still hopeful JG wants to sign us a decent LCH to replace Scales for Celtic games at least. Not happy with defence at all yet, even though Stewart looks decent he’s still looked prone to silly mistakes & that’s against poor sides

What silly mistakes has he made that make him look “prone” to them?
