Trying to work harder than normal to pass the time ,all I can think about is watching us tonight .
It’s like a very pleasurable torture
I think Gazza is the best midfielder ever to have played in Scotland.
Ooft! Good luck OP. You better not have wearing some shite threads and have some gimpy hairdo or the Lounge Lizards will eat you up.
Good luck and I hope you got yer hole.
Penny Arcade the song?
So, is he in the squad for tonight then?
Probably start.So, is he in the squad for tonight then?
MOTM.Probably start.
Absolutely. SlimJim Loyal.A few older bears will beg to differ on that one mate
We only had no striker available because Lafferty was cup tied mate.
Totally different scenario that won't occur this season.
As others have said, Defoe did it last season for a month and a half.
The issue with getting a third striker is that we would be buying someone to sit in the stands and maybe play a handful of games as a sub. Who are we recruiting for that profile who is better than Stewart (a striker), Ojo, Rudden or Mebude? If we got a superstar to do it then that would be lovely. But we won’t. If we got a player good enough to drop Morelos or Defoe down the pecking order then even better. But that’s even less likely.
If we get a third striker then it would be a youth or a journeyman. And I can see why that is not a priority.
As I said, it the same with goalkeepers. Most clubs have 2 very decent goalkeepers. Almost none have 3.
Seems to be a few on here getting a bit of a staunner for Ross M and Greg D about their pathway to the first team and them getting the opportunity.
Opportunity is earned not just given.
If we bring in players that are better than these two and are picked before them then tough luck to the both of them.
This is elite sport and it is survival of the fittest.
I want the strongest players playing week on week, if Ross and Greg cant break through that then that will be their issue.
This is not kids football and even split of match time for each player, earn your place or move on.
That's plentyIs King the Ace up the sleeve of the Queen's 11? With Jack, surely we now hold all the cards?

What? ..... we can’t possibly
However way you wanna cut it, this same lack of numbers cost us last season. Yes I do believe we should get a journeyman type who knows the situation or a loan player from a team just wanting a wage help. A third option who can be coming on when Morelos gets suspended or to cover injuries. A natural striker not a midfielder trying to play there.
We have far too many potential games for just two strikers. I don’t want us going into pivotal games with attacking midfielders up front.
