Elgin will be a tougher test than Spartans were in the league cup but still should be a game we are winning. Would like to see Jensen start if Mackenzie is still “injured”. Was not that impressed with Dorrington on Wednesday but would still start him over Nilsen at centre back. Gutted that have stuff on that means can’t make this as always enjoy a Scottish cup game. oot Flat Maybe Hibs v Clydebank if have time. Out with family 3-0 Nisbet x2 and Keskinen

Watching English football highlights just now and Isak was on fire again tonight 2 goals and an assist. That’s 17 goals for the season. Think we might have missed the boat on him.

Thelin needs time and to work his new players into team but it should be made clear to him and the players the performances like tonight’s and the one at Kilmarnock will not be accepted going forward. Thelin said after Kilmarnock that a performance like that would not happen again but it did tonight. We have a lot of dross still in the side who don’t seem to even get the basics like positional sense or passing to people in the same colour jersey as them. As much as Thelin needs to get new players in he needs to get some of them out.

That is worst Tribute Act team I have seen since mid 80s when shite like Gregor Stevens played for them. Embarrassing to lose 3-0. We have fallen off a cliff form wise. Only positive for me was Jensen. Elgin get an early goal on Saturday we could be right in the shite as confidence has gone completely.

Cannot be finished as we are surely getting a striker in.

No idea how we will line up tonight but with Tribute Acts home form I fully expect us to lose and possibly by a few. £36 a ticket for Scottish football is a joke so I am glad my work is insisting that I actually do what they pay me for today which means I cannot attend as I am weak and would have folded and gone. Oot work hopefully home for game on tv flat 3-0 no dons scorer

Another defender surely not.

Dorrington signed a new 4 year deal before coming on loan so doubt he will be signing on even if his loan is successful. Jensen is an interesting one. Looks the very definition of a utility player but utility players are usually ones who are not good enough to be a long term answers in a set position but good enough to plug the gap until a longer term solution is found. However given fee we have paid I would be surprised if we are signing him to be a utility player and will have a position set for him. Which one I have no idea.

Being linked with both Rome clubs, both Milan clubs and Juventus in last few weeks. Looks like nice bidding war coming for his services.

Pretty sure McInnes gave him his debut in Scottish Cup against Dumbarton just before he was sacked.

There are studies in the U.S. that now suggest that artificial surfaces can lead to more non contact knee and ankle injuries. There are also a couple that suggest injury recovery time is longer on artificial surfaces as well. https://www.center4research.org/injuries-related-to-artificial-turf/

Finished 5-2 to Barcelona with them finishing game with 10 men.

Spanish super cup currently being played in Saudi. Barcelona 3-1 up just before half time.

I thought McGarry was caught out of position time and time again but we got away with it as Hearts were as bad as us going forward. Better team will exploit it. Not usually a fan of Doohan but he his two saves won us a point today. Was eye bleeding stuff to watch at times from both sides.

Exactly what a few said in pub pregame about him going there.
