Could easily had two more sent off as well (although Malmo could have had one more away) with McCulloch and Naismith very lucky not to join the other two. They actually were the better side tonight as well and would have probably won if it wasnot for their players losing the plot.

Pretty sure Brown has already tried him there in a couple of firendlies towards the end of last season.

Need a winger/creative mid as well. When he first came in Brown said he would not be repeating the mistakes of the previous incumbent but here we are starting the season with a squad that is totally unbalanced and missing at least one full back just like last season. Brown did what he was brought into do and stopped us going down. Is he capable of doing much more than making us hard to beat and keeping us up I am not so sure and less convinced everytime I hear him speak.

New manager is taking charge tomorrow so no way this has not been planned for a while now. Makes you think that the run of games is just an excuse and it is Jefferies standing up to Vlad the Mad over the kiddie fidder is the real reason for his departure.

Sky sports saying Jeffries been offered director of football roll and Brown and Locke not sacked but their positions are under review. cracking preperation for their euro tie on Thursday.

Pretty poor excuse. St Mirren made the same number of changes and seemed to have no problem palying well.

Nah no need to panic only Tims and Hearts next.

Not manage to get one of the free tickets then.

With game being on 10th August could even help us punt Fyvie before the close of this window. Was thinking of heading to this anyway.

Think we desperately need a left back as well as the striker and winger if we are to have any real chance of getting back up to the right end of the table.

Vernon with the rest struggling to get into double figures especially if we continue without any width or creative play.

You missed out the Spaniards from Espanyol.

Premier Sports have got the rights for both legs.

Watching it. Decent game for a friendly.

Club moving Fyvie on was my first thought as well.

Is Woods not another central midfielder.

Thought it was his shoulder he hurt?

Anywhere from 5th to 11th.

Is it a case of them not releasing him until he gives up on the back wages he is owed?

See St Johnstone have signed Cillian Sheridan and are hoping to have clearance to play him on Saturday.

Would want to see how his fitness stands up to rigours of Scottish winter first before offering him any sort of extension. He also looked a bit on the slow side when I saw him at Forfar so would like to see how he gets on in games being played at full pace before deciding on any sort of extension.

Mackies continued presence goes a big way to explain why last 5 managers have all be canned.

Tommy Wright?
