    Well of course but the whole Curran hatred is well overboard and it's nonsense all the people saying he contributed nothing last season.

    He had a few good games with Nelson and set up a few of his goals and gave him some space to play. When either player was partnered with our other option, Miller, the goals dried up and we were totally incapable of holding the ball up top and then struggled when both attackers took their injuries.

    I'm not saying he's amazing but he's spent years playing at top flight level in a productive attack and clearly brings something. Obviously a Safranko (which is why he left United) or a May would bring more but of all the players we have to shit on from last season, he's fairly low down the list of players to waste my seethe on and I think he's a good option to have in the second tier and a player of his style will definitely help Nelson.

    United's spending on guys like Shankland has put out of proportion the expectations we have just because they are our arch rivals and there's a limit to what the club can afford.
    His job is a striker, mainly his job to put the ball in the net.
    This season he may well do alright but he was so out his depth in the top flight. He may work hard and run about but in the top flight you cant just do that and that is it.
    Many shots on target last season do you reckon he had ?
    His seethe I had on him from last season was same as rest of them , which was clearly none of them are good enough in the top league. Only two players I would of kept at the time was Ralph and Nelson and one went away for nothing.
    However it is in the past , we have found our level and these players need to show they are good enough to get back in the top league.
    We have 3 ( sure its 3 weeks or may be only 2) until the league starts to make sure come the friday night we will come away with 3 points against Dunfermline, that simple

    Yeah if it wanst for Curran, Nelson wouldn't of scored them few goals that he did...

    I mean Nelson only scored his first two goals while Curran was on the bench and then Curran came on and after a lovely move scored in an open goal.

    However regardless of what happens we now know one charity will be better off because of Curran, that is pleasing

    Hopes that Curran has turned a corner after one goal, Jesus guys just settle. One goal after six months of of never looking like scoring isn’t enough to sway my opinion. But he works hard, so that counts for something right. 
    As for plaudits from other players, remember the players 100% backing McCann, then backing McIntyre. Or saying Hamilton is a very good keeper etc It’s what they do. When was the last time a player criticised a fellow player or manager?
    If Curran starts scoring and/or assisting  regularly, then fine. I’d be surprised if he does though. 
    Just be happy we won. Didnt happen much last season so live in the moment.

    It was a thoroughly professional performance with the midfield in particular looking excellent. The game against Inverness will give us a better indicator of where we are in for the league due to how muck Raith were for large spells. 
    Hate sounding the cliche claxon but we do need some extra bodies in as there was no one on that bench who's likely going to be able to change a game. I reckon we'll see another 2 come in. 
    Yup that my fear. That team we had today I think will be our strongest starting eleven. Aye we cruised it against Raith but just think like you say bench wise it's short of bodies and that not including when injuries appear as we have many players who have had plenty injuries already.
    However gotta be positive, didnt think we did too much wrong the day. Gotta enjoy it and move on to next and sorta feel with next few games in cup is to still change about the squad and get some game time in for other players, especially if we are not going to bring any more in.

    3 goals and a clean sheet is good news.

    It's scary how good some fakes are these days. These are not good in the slightest, don't even attempt to look like any actual Rolex ever made l.

    Could you post up a picture of the back of the watch and the clasp as well? Curious to see what bits they have used creating these.

    There should be an etched rolex logo at 6 o'clock on the crystal as well which is not visible typically with the naked eye. If its clearly visible or not there at all it's another sign.

    Ha I aint fetching it out the bin, dad said to get rid once i told him it was fake so did exactly that. Still a mystery as to how it got in the attic and how did it come about
