Did we sell out in the end? This definitely a fixture both sides will be looking to win, so hopefully this set up will provide enough cover for the back line. Missing the game tonight due to travel to Auckland, hoping to see a good result at the end of it! COYR

Well, I knew you would

I see the barcodes won the terrorists derby. One of the least interesting results of the night.

That’s a good number, doubt many more than that would be travelling anyway?

There were still some 2,000 tickets available yesterday, so hopefully they’ve now been shifted. This is probably our winnable game if we can call it that. At home and confidence is good. Do we set up the same as the county game rather than huns? I’d suggest yes, but I’ve no real idea of the opposition. Hopefully we see a bit more of Sokler, needs to get the opportunity to start shining, not that I think we should be dropping miovski for him. anyway, hoping for a decent turn out, was a decent package the club put out. out bed work work 2-0 dons, miovski and barron

That tackle Mackenzie made was something special! managed to get my boys to watch it all, and for all the huns possession, we looked decent enough after the first. A few hairy moments, but subs were good and contributed. As you said panda, beast mode performance from shinnie thought everyone played their part, superb.

What a glorious result to wake to and I have to say, dons Twitter is equally glorious. Fuck me, did not see that coming. Had a sneaky suspicion we might sneak a draw before going to bed, probably from listening to the gartenmann interview in fairness. Got me feeling optimistic. looking forward to watching the game back now!

Just on Gartenmann, it sounds like he’s be keen to be here permanently but as his club only gave the go ahead late in the window a loan was likely the only option. Hopefully something can happen at the end of his loan. This came from chris Harvey. Most of that is what he’s also said in his redtv pre match conference interview. He talks a lot of sense.

Really intrigued by this one, get any sort of positive result there and it should act as a further shot in the arm for this team. Confidence is building, but I really want us to avoid a hammering. Not sure they'd be able to separate this from the general momentum. Defence has started to gel, finally, so all I ask today is that we have a good performance.

I don’t mind developing players for other clubs, as long as they’re not in Scotland. They’re not the problem for us. I’ve been trying to find out that same bit of information, seems to be a few conflicting ideas floating around. Regardless, I agree, would be nice to develop a defensive partnership for a few consecutive seasons.

I think i'm probably more concerned with MacDonald tbh. From memory, according to the fans at the time, this is the form he was apparently showing for his previous club. Rubi is a walking red card but i'll give him the benefit of the doubt as he's young and moved to a new country. Hasn't played much first team football so i'm hoping with the stewardship of Jensen and Gartenmann he will come good. That said, those will should also help MacDonald?

Not convinced by them, but they seem to unsurprisingly be getting the rub of the green and are still getting results. Back to back wins will hopefully have helped confidence grow, so we're in a better place than we were a fortnight ago. Would look to try and set up like we did against Frankfurt, as they'll probably try and press us more than other teams do in the league. Hopefully we get some positive news on McGarry, although the team have done well without him. Team ethic seems to be building and Robson appears to be willing to try a few things and using subs earlier, which is great! Whilst I understand the logic of resting folk for this, confidence is the most important thing here and we want to get a bit of a run going. Out Bed Bed Bed 2-1 them, Miovski

Could and probably should have been further ahead in the first half, but generally a well composed performance until the Rubi moment. That really fucked things up for us. Great to see Sokler get his first goal, and Shinnie's, well, what a peach! Hibs will hopefully have found time to stutter by then, good win for them tonight.

Word has it he changed agents? Fucking hope something comes of it rather than seeing him piss off for nothing. He’s talented and played well so far this season. Hopefully last season was a blip due to poor advice.

Ooft, controversial! I'm not sure our confidence is at such a sufficient level to do that just yet. As much as it makes sense.

Not sure the Macedonians really agree you on that one Anyway, hunbos up 1-0 at killie in the league cup game.

What could possibly go wrong ?

Our record there is more in our favour than not, of the last five, we’ve won two and drawn two. Relatively close affairs so I think your guess is probably pretty close. I can see him sticking as close to that starting XI as possible. But it’s been nice seeing him make changes early. Definitely not the McInnes school of thought. 2-1 dons, AET, miovski and sokler

Growing up, this fixture was always in the news. Had always aligned myself with ajax. Not sure what smashing your own stadium achieves

Didn’t someone get a card retrospectively upgraded last season, or am I making that up? What you sounds very plausible though

Great to wake to 3 points and a solid performance, hopefully the shoots of recovery and improvement are there. How brown stayed on is beyond me. Surely it’ll be retrospectively upgraded? Won none of the ball and completely out of control. great to see miovski amongst the goals and assists, I’ll still maintain he would have scored that effort on Thursday hope we get the full season out of him but if it’s big bucks in Jan, hard to turn that down. That assist from jensen, obviously an attempt at goal but a solid effort nonetheless! Onwards and upwards!

Issue with that is mcgarry is not as good in a four as apposed to a five. His defensive side is easily the weakest part of his play.

Hope everything is alright Al, glad you were able to make the trip back home

Enjoyed that read, thanks for sharing!

The first of two probable make or break games for robson. There were definite positive signs on Thursday but I think they played a game that suited us, I.e slow. Most spfl teams aren’t like that and will force the mistakes that lead to goals. Haven’t seen any of county this season but they’ve obviously started the season better than us and have managed to get some good results. Don’t think this’ll be as easy as has been mooted elsewhere. I’d like to see duk on the bench again, still needs a kick up the rear. Hopefully miovski isn’t actually injured? out bed bed bed 1-1, miovski
