I think because we have such limited resources and that aberdeen Is so far from the central belt a lot of players we have talks with hold out till the end of transfer windows to see what other options they have. I don't think its a coincidence these players are saying we are still in the running to sign them with only five days left of the window

Wasn't at the game but delighted to get the win. I'm also very pleased that JC got such a warm welcome back, hopefully this will finally draw a bit of a line under his tenure. As for the game 1 up front at home isn't exactly positive but I actually don't care at the mo. That was a really important 3 points to get

Replaying the game was what the decision should have been in the first place imo

Oh well midweek away fixture in feb it is then, one for the truly hardcore.....

Gutted, couldn't help but get my hopes up a wee bit but as said better than seeing him line up against us. Still gutted tho

Am I right in thinking miller is out of contract next summer? He's a decent player but if we got offered half a mill I'd take it

I'd have him back in a second

Ha! Yeah fair point aj, didn't really think bout that one.

Get over calderwood? Its been 6 months since he left and yet the debate still rages in one form or another. I'm bored of it, anyone else or am I the only one?

Well hopefully rougvie and cooper will come out in the press to clear their names. Eg "I never regarded myself as a dirty player but could never help myself against davie provan, honestly he's a cunt of a man"

Wasn't at the game and not seen the highlights (at a wedding reception). I thought mackie was amazing last week at tannadump, good to hear he has carried his form over. delighted with the win, let's hope for a decent draw at home, anyone know when the draw is?

Aye they got half a mill for levein and won't go above 90k for fenlon. Apparently bohemians would have settled for 180k. I would be a bit pissed if I was an arab......

As far as I'm concerned this debate over the death of the ultra's has been the most interesting thing about them. I can honestly say I really didn't give a shit about card displays, horns or big flags. That's not to say I dissaproved of them I just didn't give a shit. I never really saw it as adding to the atmosphere, if the game was important enough/entertaining enough atmosphere takes car of itself. If its not no amount of big flags is going to change it. I respect the time they put into the ultra's, it bothers me not that they're not anymore. On the flipside at least they will get to have a few beers and watch the 1245 ko in the pub now.

Without any shadow of a doubt russel anderson everytime. I would love to have him back.

Playing devils advocate a wee bit here but all the people they are looking at are hardly inspiring, maybe they should go for calderwood

Ah ray naturally both footed mckinnon. I'll see him with micheal o neall

Excellent result and one that we sorely needed. I thought mackie was superb, never gave kenneth or webster a moments peace. Marshall looked very good in the first half, the lad can actually pass the ball and did very well to set up charlie. Real shame gassi got sent off as he had been having a good game. Pass marks to everyone and get it right up ya jutie scum

Re aluko, don't think its very fair to judge him too much at the moment. Due to injury and international commitments he's had no kind of run in the side. I think waiting till he's had a few starts in a row would be prudent

Right soz for delay. Answer to one, of course no manager is perfect with their dealings with the press but JC is in a completely different league to levein. I remember when lafferty got mulgrew sent off, jc afterwards said of the incident "well charlies an honest lad and he's come off saying he's not touched him but you know big kyle he's an honest player too" Compare that to the rant levein went on when utd got screwed at ibrox. Point 2. Levein has been the director of football at utd for a good few seasons now and has completely changed the clubs infastructure at pretty much every level. Point 3. To be honest dave i just really like the way levein goes about his business. He's shrewd tactically, has the eye for a player, is a very good man manager and has a good record with youth development. I cant really say these things about calderwood

My flatmate who works as head of admin at a football club was telling me that pre contract agreements can be signed as far ahead as two months before january (assuming the conract expires in june) and that most do but only get announced in january. I cant help but think its gone a bit quite as its done and dusted.

I would argue that the ability to articulate when dealing with the media, board of directors and players is a big part of the job. One of my biggest hang ups about calderwood was his talking pish in the media, some would say what has this to do with the job? Well players listen to press releases just like the rest of us, hard to take someone serioulsy when they drivel pish in the media all the time because they clearly like the sound of their own voice. Levein has done a lot more at utd than just manage the team, i dont care what the league standings say when it came to a head to head between the two he is the more talented by quite a distance. I for one would laugh my ass off if JC took the utd job, a good friend of mine is an arab and he is shitting it that jc is going to get the job

I was right behind the wall when he pinged in the free kick against St Mirren, it was a doozer. I agree with what BB said, wasnt too fussed when he left as he hadnt been playing much and when he had he was disappointing, the reason i think he is remembered so fondly is because they were dark days and often he was the only ray of hope we had in the side, even though he was so inconsistent. I had always hoped he might come back though, when he died my friend summed it up quite well. When i play pro evo or football manager and get a really good young prospect coming through i always give them the 47 shirt in tribute to zero RIP Hicham, you succeeded where so many others failed, you made a trip to paisley worthwhile.

I for one would not like to see them go out of business though i think there is a fair chance they will. If they were to get relegated though they would be all kinds of screwed and it would only be a matter of time until the administrators came in. With the debt they have i just dont see how they could survive. I wouldnt like to see it happen though as i hate seeing clubs go out of business, even clubs i dont particularily like. The only exception to this is the gruesome twosome

Aye so why is he the second highest spl scorer then? Boyd has scored plenty against us for both rangers and killie and we are clearly a top 6 side. I cant stand the man but hes a very good penalty box striker. Anyway im sorry if i am being a buzzkill, im delighted with the three points and the bragging rights. Touch wood we'll have more points after saturday

isnt that where the tims got mccourt from?
