Think he was always odds on to go when West Ham pulled the trigger on Lopetegui. Think Everton interviewed Potter as well so be interesting to see where they go.

Hadn’t noticed they were only 2 points outside relegation places. Maybe not a surprise he is gone then.

West Ham manager punted only 7 months after they chased Moyes out the door. Being replaced by Graham Potter who is not holding out for Tribute Act gig after all.

If we make Europe we will need to have more Scottish born/developed players to meet UEFA squad requirements so would expect to see more come in this summer. Also as Rico says once Thelin gets a better understanding of game here he will start to look at players in this country.

Think she left when he moved to Italy.

Striker Hearts signed seem to take 3 working days to get his and he is not a full international so should hopefully get Tobers through in a similar timescale.

Yeah missed 6 games for Utrecht due to injury then could not get his place back. Joined PNE week before they changed manager to Heckingbottom who plays a system that does not use wingers. As you say Thelin knows him so not such a punt. I do wonder where he is going to play as Keskinen has looked better on the left than on the right. Do we move Keskinen back to the right or play Okkels there.

Right sided player who can play centre back and right back.

Always felt that McGrath is one of those players who looks great in a winning team but is one of those who disappears when team is struggling. Agree with Rico that McKenzie looks like he is still not fully fit after injury. Think Devlin looks like he might playing with an injury. That said with a winger coming in I suspect McGrath might be away this window.

Scott Burns reporting it’s a loan deal with option to buy. Only played 5 games for Utrecht and 10 games for Preston in last two years. Wonder if this means Duk or McGrath are away in this window?

Pictures on line tonight of Gunn at ABZ allegedly meeting a player. No idea who it is.

There is also a rumour there may be an offer in for Gueye. Not seen anything to back that up so suspect it’s bullshit.

Jimmy saying both have long term injuries and he hopes we will see them again this season. Rumour is Sokler is done for season and Molloy has broken collar bone so out long term if not the season.

Need to get someone in sharpish if rumours about Molloy and Sokler being done for the season are true.

Another two very odd substitutions. Keskinen especially looked our best player.

McDonald and Nisbet off for Polvara and Clarkson. I genuinely have no idea what we are doing.

Leven red carded in the tunnel at half time.

Not sure Rubi even touches Watt with his head but still stupid to react. McDonald on left side has been a joke again. Assume Molloy must be injured as not even on the bench. Have to say Palaversa has been poor again and there is no way we should be taking on option him. Nilsen was fine until the Jinx Rico turned on and been shit since or maybe ran out of steam about then. Going to be long 2nd half.

Which contradicts what ticket office told me on Friday. Oh well.

Weather not in looking great for tomorrow. Wonder if there is a chance of this being called off. Rubi, Nilsen and Palaversa all back from suspension which is a plus but countered with Mitov being out and potentially Sokler. Genuinely no idea how we will line up or what score will be if it’s on.

Kye Rowles allegedly leaving Hearts for MLS with fee rumoured to be in region of £600k. Replacement Jamie McCart from Rotherham United.

To answer my own question no cash gate for the away end on Sunday. Was going to be last minute before I knew I could make this but decision made for me now. Seems odd that clubs are making it difficult for folk to attend games. Not as there is any chance of this selling out.

That first half was very poor from us. Created very little and defended poorly. While Wright’s goal was a wonder strike the build up to it involved Doohan flapping at a cross and our defenders and midfielders having several chances to go out and close the ball down but to a man failing to do so. Second half we actually created several good opportunities for our strikers but Nisbet and Ambrose managed to miss them all. Duk was unlucky with shot off the bar but his dive just before he was taken off was criminal. He was passed his man and decided to dive instead of driving into the box. Special mention to McDonald who managed to produce an even worse performance than he did at Kilmarnock. Looked completely disinterested and clearly knows he is on his way out. Said a while back this poor run of form was Thelin’s first big test and at the moment he is failing it. Club need to get him in new players that can play the system he wants to play urgently and he needs to get them playing well quickly or we are in danger of falling out of European positions or even the top 6.

Is there a cash gate for this?

Mitov out is a shock.
