Great 3 points yesterday. Felt like an old school routine 3-0 home win from the good old days when we were racking up trophies. Aribo is really developing into a player with a final product to back up everything else he offers. Manager got the midfield spot on yesterday. Sakala looked a constant threat. Needs more composure in front of goal and he will really take his game to the next level. I have no idea how the wee skinny fat guy was not sent off. The referee needs to call the game as he sees it and not with some kind of context he clearly applied. That's the only reason I can think of for the boy not walking. In fact I have no idea what their manager was thinking involving him, he comes with too much baggage V us and doesn't offer anything on the park.

I wonder if we will go back in for Bright Osayi-Samuel at Fenerbache. Dont think he is playing much. Turkey is having a bit of a financial issue which is impacting the football clubs. We could do with a proper right winger that can stretch the game. Maybe a loan.

Yeah I'm not sure I can follow JR's logic, if there was contact then the player was fouled and its a penalty. Jack Ross is turning into a bit of a parody with some of his post match comments defending the indefensible actions. Like the recent sending off at Ibrox. Good to be here, very sensible posts and no real hyperbole or wild stuff

Ive picked Aribo but really couldn't justify it if pressed. The Goldson clearance in the second half was great but he didnt have a great night. Kent won the penalty, got a few decent shots off well but had a poor night other than that.

Linked with Xavi Simons of PSG https://www.sport.es/es/noticias/barca/nuevo-posible-destino-xavi-simons-12930999 - twitter feed link Supposedly the boy and his agent (a certain Mino Raiola) want him playing 1st team football. Id imagine if we were to get a deal arranged it would come with caveats of 1st team football. He is available on a free. It would probably be similar to the Boumsong arrangement where the player would come here, play well and win a big money move elsewhere with player & agent making a big % of the transfer fee. I wouldn't be against that and the agent would ensure a decent fee for the boy I'm sure.

Terrific result and a very good ground out win. Penalty was a stonewaller have no idea how anyone can contest that decision. Didn't think we were great by any means and I'd struggle to pick a MOTM if pushed. But I don't think Hibs troubled us at all.

Having sat in the enclosure, seated directly behind supporters in wheelchairs for two seasons (that's all I could last before moving) the view from there is not great. Ideally we should be able to allow wheelchair access supporters better viewpoints in the stadium. I know it has challenges due to mobility and fire escapes etc But there must be a way. And I believe the club needs to prioritise this over any safe standing initiatives as much as that wont go down well with some.

From what I've heard so far it was a bit of a standard AGM with a few points covered we already knew about, stance on selling players, further investment etc. How great is it to have an AGM pass by almost un-noticed after recent years.

Dont think there is much chance of this happening unless Hagi is desperate to move, as you stated there is not much money in Turkish football at the moment. Actually i think its a good market for us to be looking at bring players in.

We played 3 at the back at times yesterday it looked to me. Kamara dropped in when Livi were taking goal kicks and at other long ball scenarios.

Between Arfield and Aribo for me. Both very good. But Arfields running into the box gave us a real cutting edge. Only 2 games in but I like the way Gio sets up the team. One of my biggest issues with us under the previous management was our obsession of slowly working the ball wide, for our full backs to cross into one guy in the box v 6 defenders. We are looking for early balls into channels in behind more often (first goal v Sparta and 1st goal today) Getting the ball forward more direct will allow us to get the best from both.
