I have gone optimistic and predicted an Airdrie win, but the presence of Connell and Wallace does give me some worries. I also expect Millar and Watt , if they play, to want to pose a challenge. We are quite creative now but there will need to be some real grit as well. In the cliche we are now there to be shot at, so i hope Max is alert to any long hoofballs. Ticket purchased today from a very smooth system.
Quite honestly Millar and Watt would be nowhere near getting in our midfield ahead of Easton, Frizzell, McGill, McInroy or McCabe but of course this is Scottish League 1 where nothing is guaranteed.

Would actually be good to know this. Unluckily, none of his professional representation post on Pie and Bovril apparently according to their official company twitter...
In all seriousness the club need to address his ongoing absence. I genuinely feel for him, but we need to know if a. the club have held him back from playing (which would be a very bad look for them given the circumstances). Or b. Rico is refusing to play (which puts everyone in an awkward spot).
Absolutely, although option b is a simple one.
I would guess that he's probably on the sick list.

I’d like to see walker get a run of games at RB when Kerr is back fit!
At the expense of Watson?

Was it Watson that got a very early bath on his debut in the game at Balmoor?
Last season i assume you mean. No that was Kyle Turner, now at Partick Thistle.

Probably not. I personally think he is Stenhousemuir bound but more importantly it seems IM doesn't trust him.
The left side of defence is a more pressing matter of course.

Is it just me that doesn’t really rate Watson, I know we’re not blessed with many other options but I preferred walker at Falkirk for example. Against Dumbarton Ross McLean was all over Watson until he was sent off.

McGill far better midfield pushing forward, as he did in motherwell game, we have a natural right back in Walker
I just don't see what Scott Walker has done to date to justify being anywhere near our first 11. Watson will fill this role when we have a full squad as both he and Murray have hinted.

According to Murray on his post match interview Gabby McGill was taken to hospital with a suspected concussion after his head knock in the first few minutes of the game, if that's the case I think the concussion protocol means you are out for 10 days, also mentions Salim picked up a knee injury that didn't look great. He seemed lively enough with his last gasp header, we need to avoid injuries although our squad is deeper than recent years, I think our rivals have more strength in dep t h.
Any further update on Gabby and Sal
Aye that's disappointing just as they were getting back to fitness as well.

I was speaking to Queen's Park and they were bemoaning their price too. Lee-Ann Dempster is in the same thought as our chairman that they don't want it to compete with the physical attendance at the gate. They compromised at £15 for the stream. Ours is the gate price.
BUT if you're an Alloa season ticket holder you can watch for free or ( my latest offering) if you watch outside the UK and Ireland you can buy a package for the away games at £6 a game - AND you get a discount of £6 for home PPV making it £12 per game.I understand the point for home fans but don't get the business model for away fans. Away supports are dwindling badly these days so streams are the only possible the home club will get any revenue.
I've never seen any figures released from clubs regarding stream figures but it would be interesting.
On a personal note streams are excellent for fans who live 170 miles away from the team they support, like me.

Versatility indeed - I'm really disappointed @KierenAAFC didn't ask him if this was the time to start robbing banks with every policeman in the country tied up over there.
The one thing that I will improve - is moving the camera so its next to the pixellot mounted thing and that'll eliminate the shake from me being on a rickety gantry. I'll do it before winter kicks in as I'd quite like to take over the 'control room' in the press box - heat for 90 minutes
I think the criticism is linked to the £18 cost as we get slated at £15. I hope you get a percentage!

It was a clear foul, just as Geggans on Currie was a clear foul. Both "victims" of these challenges did all they could to gain their team an advantage though.

Think the man from the moon is telling porkies. No shame we're all a tad biased and irrational when when it come to your own team.

It's also hilarious that Airdrie fans are going "LOOK AT HOW RAGIN THEY URR!" when they've spent months sticking pins into Ross McLean voodoo dolls and wishing all kinds of bad karma goes his way for *checks notes" doing exactly what Max Currie did to Andy Geggan at the weekend.
You've changed your tune! Did you not previously say that it was a clear foul by Wardrop on McLean? Think you did mate.

I'd missed this until seeing this clip on twitter earlier too. Paton's wee angry run towards Easton before turning and screaming at Ramsbottom
You love to see it. I love Easton more with every game.
Think Paton was reacting to Easton having a go at him. I'm good with!

No point discussing McLean's sending off as only a few on the park would know. (Does seem to be a bit of a dick though)
Buchanan can have no complaints, minimal contact but did attempt to pull him back.
Geggan, doubt if anyone has a worse disciplinary record in the last 15 years but in this case he can have a complaint!

You seem awfully happy to accept that there may be a racist fan amongst the support.
Deary me pal. All the best
Unfortunately Stephen, you quickly dropped your disguise and confirmed yourself as a liar! A sensitive topic like this needs transparency and not trickster's like you. Jog on!

Surely tha father of a team mate will name or identify the abuser and the club will take appropriate action,
Yeh seems simple, but obviously not.

So there's folk on here obviously think Rico is "at it" or made it up or whatever.
Why would he do that ? Honest answers , folk haven't believed him from that start , so why would he lie ? Or someone lie about thier own fans?
And if there's folk on here that are angry that he's still upset by what he feels is the lack of a proper investigation ( im not saying it was proper or not) then why is he a "rat" for that ? Why you all so angry that he's unhappy ? It's a weird mentality! The club might feel vindicated but he doesn't, so why is that vitriol worthy?
To clarify, Rico did not hear anything. A father of a team mate approached the alleged abuser and obviously this was relayed to Rico.

That's a huge conclusion to jump to. He didn't play the first game after the news broke originally. Maybe just needs to get focused again. Doesn't mean he's off.
Seems a lot of vitriol towards the club from Rico's brother and agent. Looks a goner to me.

Looks like the end for Quitongo, not stripped today.

I think it’s OK if you don’t want to be front and centre as the owner - but then you need someone to make that connection for you. I always thought that was part of Stuart Millar’s job, to be that link. Since he left, it’s all stopped/broken down. The communication is terrible. This week’s statement a car crash IMO. Makes me wonder who is advising him…Methinks himself.

Agree the statement is a little long winded, how about short and sharp..
CASE NOT PROVEN, NEXT.......
There is an element in our support who appear to be 'Anti Establishment ' at all costs, interesting to hear the reasons why.....
As for Ricos brother, nice of him to get involved a fine upstanding individual, that right Jai....
I wasn't there and by all accounts there was a small away support which should have made it quite easy to identify the culprit. It's a strange one!
PH has paid his money and runs the club and is obviously a successful businessman but as you hint I do have a bit of gripe although I don't think he has done much wrong on the football side. Someone listed some points on Facebook concerned about the trust, fans liason officer, junior diamonds, Club 1924 and several which are all pretty valid. My main concern is that PH appears to be extremely secretive, private, call it what you like but his general lack of engagement, makes me very suspicious of him and very strange for a hands on owner.
I really would like to see an interview on DTV with him where he could outline his vision for the club and engage a bit more with the fan

The footballing side apart, statements and information coming from the club is piss poor. It's been suggested that PH micro manages everything but perhaps he needs to leave some functions to others.

With that in mind aptly named diamond formation could be the way forward.
Currie
Watson Kerr Fordyce Quitongo
McCabe
Frizzell McInroy
Easton
Smith Gallagher
Could make an argument for McInroy playing the deeper role with McCabe pushed up a bit more but I thought McInroy seemed to have plenty of energy and looked good going forward yesterday and McCabe has definitely looked better in the deeper midfield role than he did on the right of the midfield three when Agnew was playing there. We'd still have two McGills and Salim fighting for a place in that lineup as well.It will be an interesting selection at Falkirk with probably everyone available except Luke Lyons. If we can win there it would really fire up our season.

My thoughts too as well as Josh Kerr still absent. We would be so much stronger with Kerr at the back and McCabe in place of Agnew in midfield.
