I dont think we are that far away from them tbh. We make mistakes and they are more clinical. Moving forwards, what are you suggesting?

Would a contract with incentives be a good idea for Cantwell (a player with attitude problems)? Although, I can also see how this could have an adverse affect on attitude.

Let’s hope we can go about our business as efficient as Aston Villa were….

So... what do we think after today's reaction, Barasic leaving?

Has anyone seen the 'league' table for punishments handed out by the CO? I'm sure I have seen it somewhere before but can't seem to find it.

Caught the end of it when they brought up the league table. No mention of Rangers being top and 13 points clear, straight onto talking about hibs in 2nd place.... Maloney's analysis of how a team stops this Rangers side is ....exactly what you would expect from bbc.

As mentioned above, McCann is spot on. I actually liked his take on telling our full backs to stay a little deeper to allow Kent and Barker to attack and take on a man from a wide position. Just to change up a bit and instead of them recieving the ball with their back to goal.

Spot on. If selling morelos means covering the fees for incoming players then who cares. The Scottish media may paint whatever picture they like but the bottom line is, as already said by someone else, he is going to be a great profit for our club.

Fair and totally agree. Although, I tend to think this supports the view that our team are better at being underdogs than handling the pressure of being out in front. The difficult thing for our club is that we cannot buy 'winners'. We need to rely on developing players into winners. Whilst I cannot deny the improvement under SG, only time will tell if he is capable of turning our squad into 'winners'...

I reckon our players get devalued because they haven't won anything yet. Perhaps this is justified given the post winter break meltdown the past two seasons. Which is worrying me slightly because the pressure is already being lumped on us to stop 10 by the media. (Note that most media outlets have already moved on from the fact that last season was awarded and not won). It would be interesting to get everyone's opinion on whether they think our players will be able to handle the pressure this year?

Given the new season is due to start next weekend, does anyone know when the arbitration process is expected to conclude? If Hearts and Thistle are successful, do they win compensation but still get relegated?

Does anyone know if there has been any genuine interest in Buffalo? I know a few decisions against him have been a dubious but those decisions will likely continue into next season. Can Morelos be our number 9 next year? IMO, if we go with Morelos, it is essential that we bring in at least another striker of first team quality (not squad player) for both back up and to challenge for the starting spot.

Crispy hips ?? I didn't realise the big clubs were interested in him and, finance aside, I would have thought we that our lure, Gerrard et al, would be bigger than that of the mid-PL clubs.

I see Ryan Fraser has rejected a short term deal at Bournemouth. He has been playing at a fairly high level for a good few years now, still only 26 and in his 'prime' years. Do you think we would be interested in him and would he upgrade our current squad?
