Good lad. Hope he does well for them.. unless they are playing us at some point.

Tonda has shown some flexibility. And good subs. Since we went to a back 4 things are looking up and the defence does look more solid I think.

Fair to say we didn't see AA scoring goals like that.

YES! A proper strikers goal,

Larin was in for the diving header. Good to see he gambled on it even if it didn't reach him.

Pretty even game so far. Could go either way!

Fair enough. I didn't realise there was only 16 left. Where has the season gone..!

It's a huge gamble. Quite simply. With luck he'll be raring to go after a disappointing season and want to prove a point. Get 10 goals between now and seasons close and he's probably done the same aa AA. Surely cant be worse than Downs.

That is what I think also. The club realises promotion is beyond us now. So it's about consolidating and keeping their options open to either sell, or go again next year without some of the bloat. We aren't consistent enough to get promoted.

So we've sold our top scorer and replaced him with an unknown. Another gamble. Classic SR trying to be smarter than everyone else.

I agree to a certain extent. But consider Ross Stewart gets injured long term again. We'd have potentially just one of Archer or Armstrong plus the new signing. Another injury and we're down to deploying youth players again. A lot depends on the quality and fitness of this new signing. Feels like a gamble. I think we need a credible fourth option and so did the club in the summer.

I'm trying to be reasonable about it. But the fingertip onto the post would have found a way to creep in under Baz. Those always did. The fine details are beyond him.

Has been really excellent today. Seems more at ease with his positioning when in a back 4.

Subs not sufficient quality.

We've got nothing upfront now. Young lad not ready. Has he even touched the ball?
