Morelos not having a good game at all...

Yeh, I see that now. We still don't 'rotate' Patterson though!

McGregor dropped - after one mistake!

Only downside was Balogun's injury. Wish we hadn't let Katic go now on loan.

Actually Alex Rae corrected him before it was official, saying it was the head that counted, not Roofe's back which was offside!

C'mon Alf, get your 100th tonight!

I'm starting to get twitchy now. If we don't improve quickly I suspect SG might think he'd taken us as far as he can - and in a way he'd be right I see we are linked with a Blackburn player called Rothwell in January - yet another midfield player. Maybe to replace the Lily of Bacuna?

Their troubles sound remarkably like our own this season.

Correct. They are just pretending that they don't know that the booing was directed against Kamara.

Second halves only against Israel and Faroe yes. But they are playing winning football. Many times in the past Scotland have played the beautiful game and got thumped, but the present lot are getting the job done. Our boy Patterson made the goal last night.

Read a lot about Johnny Hubbard - South African, I think - and I feel as though as I had seen him. Likewise Don Kichenbrand, though I think both were living still when I was growing up. (You can tell it's international break, can't you?)

It is difficult though, isn't it? Nobody wants to be called a hypocrite but yet.....

I wonder how Rangers fans would feel if we were to be taken over by a Saudi consortium?

I'd be very disappointed, given what he's said, if he decided on Newcastle. If it was Liverpool, then he would go with my blessing, as that is where his heart is.

Kelly played very well. Can't understand why he is not higher up the pecking order for us. Middleton, I think, may actually offer more than Wright.

I remember Jim Steele - he wouldn't last five minutes in today's game. Re Porteous, I think it was telling that SG said he was reminded of himself at his age, but whether he can sort himself out remains to be seen; at any rate there is the makings of good centre back in there.

Is there any Scottish club you don't hate, actually? (Apart from us of course.) Asking for a friend...

Still no Jack, even on the bench. Very concerning now. If Patterson excels, then whither Tav?

You would hope so but as you say we need to give the science as much opportunity as possible.

One of the best sights in football is to see a winger skimming past a full back and crossing the ball for it to be headed strongly into the net. Lose that and we lose a big part of the game. I'm not for a minute doubting the science, but surely the modern ball is far removed from the old bladder we used to play with - it was just that type of ball which led to the death of Jeff Astle.

Comparing Ryan Jack to Jim Denny? The latter was a poor man's Alex O'Hara surely.?

Dont you see what I'm objecting to? Kamara was the victim - booing suggests that he did nothing wrong. Can you imagine us booing a player if it was Keltic who had been in the position of Slavia?

Surely there will be repercussions, given that Eufa relented on their plan to ban spectators. Maybe they need to be slung out to get the message through.

Goldson has been missed at both ends.

That was disgraceful but children are encouraged by the adults.
