    Premier sports are absolutely * embarrassing when it comes to Scottish football


    * build ups


    Fail to post goals


    * in general

    That was positive almost all round.

    I thought the guys brought in looked keen. Engels looked good and happy for Murray. The overall pace was good and we generally looked sharper that in our first couple of games.

    Up front is a worry though. Clearly Kenny isnt the answer and nor is Idah. We are crying out for a proper striker.

    But all in all im happy tonight

    Thought that was a good performance early in the season. Tempo was good.

    Badly need a striker and a few wingers in still but just repeating ourselves at this point with that.

    Creativity wise I'm still unsure against better opposition.

    Both Trusty and Engles both looked great tonight

    My main takeaways from tonight are that was good and we moved the ball quickly. Was pleased with the amount of crosses we put into the box even if some were howlers or we didn't make the most of them. Murray had a good game and pleased he got a goal but still don't think he's good enough. Kenny worked hard and looked hungry but he's not good enough either. Trusty played well and the Scales LB at 60 odd mins thing has to stop it is * painful. Yang and Bernardo looked eager to impress when they come on but Yang probably isn't good enough either and it's now or never for Bernardo, but I'd have him over Engels tbh, McCowan looks more useful than Engels which is wild to me given how much both cost and where they came from.
    No need for McGregor to be playing the full game on nights like tonight either.

    Enjoyable game. Slightly disappointed in Falkirk, thought they were better, certainly more organised, when we played them last season.

    The after match interview with the managers are outstanding though. Just get them to join in like they’re a pundit and the pundits talking to them about football. Not the normal * journo questions looking for a gotcha headline.

    BR’s too polished for it to be much different but I loved it when Ange done it, him and WGS being the pundit was geeking out about football and tactics. Everything else they do is * but. They even have a tiny wee * desk

    Until December they were by far the hardest game we got in Scotland last season. They outplayed us for a good while, they tired and we brought on Kuhn who at that point his form was like us cheating, brought on a ringer:56:
