Tish, Curtis, Lowery, Hugill, Deas all excellent. But f**k it - I gave my vote to Dom Thompson. Slaughtered continually and was excellent all afternoon.

Superb! Definitely 😅

Would be nice if someone brings a Polish flag!

Lowery has been good and Thomson hasn’t shown he has what it takes, yet, so would be madness to swap them out.

Considering he’s contributed very little to us over the years, certainly in comparison to his natural ability, I’m constantly amazed that we still have to discuss Liam Polworth. Can’t see him being kept around for next season and fancy him to head back up the road and be a top player for ICT.

I wonder if we could wangle a special dispensation for him to play citing injuries like Dundee are doing with their goalie who was at Montrose. Or does that only apply to one position? Either way it’s a daft rule. If we send our player on loan, who has already played for us this season, and their season ends before ours we should be able to play him should we want to.

Aye he’s been wanting clarification on his future and wasn’t able to get it. Madness considering he’s improved them since he took over. He’s someone I’d like us to add to our coaching team but I imagine he’ll have his sights set on a management gig.

I get that they’re already down but fair play - £20 a head is a great price. Especially if this ends up being a big game for us they could have easily upped the price.

Always go to the Bull. Best pub in Paisley and a nice mix of fans.

Noticed on Instagram that Robbie Deas has been getting help re: mental fragility and making sure he’s in the right frame of mind for games. Could well be a coincidence but Saturday was for me his best performance in a while. Fair play to whoever identified this, whether it was Robbie himself or the club, and tried to do something about it.

They simply won’t sell to Rangers or Celtic. USG have sold players for over €20m and the Belgian league isn’t a ridiculously higher level than Scotland. Not saying Braga is the one who’ll go for similar but he’ll be off for a big fee. As that starts to happen and Hearts start to be more successful the outlay on players will rise but with it will come a greater demand. Have to be honest and say I’m watching what’s happening in Gorgie with an element of jealousy - it’s just going to get better for them.

Given our dearth of goalkeepers bring in a “only Scottish goalkeepers allowed” rule for the top flight like they have in other places.

This is something that happens at USG too. They know that the hit rate isn’t always great early on but allow players who might be struggling a bit 6/9months to settle in and get a full pre-season behind them etc. Fancy we’ll see one or two of them make a big impact next season. Well one things for sure - they won’t be selling to someone in Scotland.

I’m in a similar boat. Will try and get my seat but on the rare occasions it’s taken I’ll sit as close by as I can. Doesn’t ruin my day or make me want to start scrapping. Unallocated clearly the best option for me but when it’s a game like Saturday, where nobody chooses their seats at time of purchase, free for alls tend to be more likely.

I get that, but there’s a huge difference between being calm in possession and being lackadaisical. We’ve had so many footballers over the years that treat the ball like a hot potato and want nothing more than to get rid of it as quickly as possible. A lot of the time that ends up with poor passes or balls to teammates in dangerous areas. Tish isn’t perfect and gets caught sometimes but that’s always going to happen - yet people highlight that all the time and ignore all the times he turns into space and makes a positive pass. It’s a bit like the long ball/playing out debate. People love to highlight the times you’re caught playing out but ignore all the times the ball went long and went straight to an opponent.
