Good win against a tab that has been hard nut to crack in recent times. Thought MacLean played pretty well

1 down at home to motherwell at half time, nice one skippy.

DM said that AOC fancies his best position as cb in his pre partick presser

Wanted as cb or cm bb?

As I understand it we are creating chances just not taking them manc

I'm disappointed we have failed to get a win in the first two games but in the grand scheme of things I'm really pleased we are looking more solid at the back. From what I have seen of AOC and Lewis they look a real finds! A little perspective, we have just had two shutouts against teams last season that scored 16 goals against us accumulatively over 9 games. Every regular on here said we need to strengthen at the back over the summer and that's clearly happened.

Just before they play sevco too

A thought occurs, it's not out with of the realms of imagination to suggest that perhaps Shinnie himself prefers playing cm.....

Their first away game in the top flight on saturday, it will be interesting to see how many of their fans decline to spend the 'Blue Pound'. I suspect not many.

Going out of Europe is a blow when it comes to getting someone else in. I like Storie for the role but it's a gamble. We may yet get someone on loan in on deadline day.

Good move for both i would say. Not fussed after the signings of stockley and storey, we're pretty full up front.

Well, assuming this comes pass, here's hoping this is the key cm we've been needing since Arnason left. Also here's hoping shinnie gets put to left back again.

I missed the game due to a multitude of reasons and only just got to watch the highlights. After hearing so much about his performance I kept a particular eye on Taylor. I noted with interest Shinnie having a go at him in the 1st half and also when the goal came no-one really wanted to go near him despite his notable contribution. It could be patience is wearing thin with him within the squad as well as the support. I'm wondering if DM is planning on dropping him but not wanting to go with an untried defensive partnership in Europe which does make some sense. With that in mind I wouldn't be at all surprised to see O'Connor starting against ST J. Aside from the issue at CB and particularly Taylor we're starting to look a quite aggresive and direct side. Stockley is going to have a field day in the league and is fast looking a very shrewd bit of business. With the attacking options at our disposal I think domestically we are going to score a shitload of goals this season..... If we can only shore up the back line we could have a glorious season. Great to see Jack showing a return to form, this is a really big season for him and he's also out of contract at the end of the season. Overall I'm reasonably confident we can do the business in Slovenia.

That's a bummer MBT

You also have to add in matchday revenue which must be worth about half a mill per home game.

Promising to hear Lewis is doing the biz. Ash Taylor? Gash Player more like.

And a far more lucrative one.

Yeah just spotted that. Cunting Fuck.

Was Rooney playing through the middle with Stockley?

Slightly bizzare he's just been released when we were all expecting him to transfer to Utd. I've still not given up hope on getting Jackson Irvine in....

Assuming now, regardless of whether or not the leadership election even goes ahead,that Corbyn has withstood this coup I think Labour have some big and bold decisions to make. I think he should bin all the rebel mp's from the party and select corbyn supporting replacements to stand against the resulting independents in the by elections they would have to face.

Manc you've pretty much just summed up exactly how I feel about it all. Well said.

This is up there with skonto riga.

I suspect he was sent on his holibobs the moment the ft whistle blew last thursday
