But we are unbeaten? So how has it hindered us? I will repeat - I would rather he stuck with one of them but it has certainly not hindered results.
It hindered our result on Saturday!

It is that stupid we have a club record unbeaten run. I am happy to let the manager, manage his squad. It is not for me but I certainly am not going to lose sleep over it like some seem to be.
Not losing sleep over it but it is just not needed and does not help the team in any way.

We have been rotating all season it has been that stupid an idea we have not lost a game in the league all season
It is a stupid idea, no need for it.

25% I believe, so 9. He'd made four substitute appearances prior to starting yesterday. I'd really like to think sentiment played no part whatsoever in his selection. Until or unless the league is won, there is simply no way he should be starting games, irrespective of the opposition.
Didn’t think he was at all bad yesterday, certainly not the player he was right enough.
Good pass for Morrison’s goal.

Where did he say he was reporting to another club? My reading is clearly there is no deal but is trying to be “fair” to the players as individuals. I am not convinced it is fair on them the chipping and changing.
Being “fair” to individual players should come a long way behind what is best for the team.

Final word from me on the goalkeeper situation.
For me the main issue is not which keeper is better, they are both bang average but the fact that our manager thinks that it is a good idea to rotate them the way he has been.
Quite ridiculous and as has been stated several times more in line with a poor pub team not a professional football club.
Really bad management in my view.

He didn't say it was contractual but he makes a comment that we could have lost Long in January so he sat down with both goalies and agreed to the monthly rotation. Either Long has asked to leave in January because of game time or Lincoln have been in touch and requested Long be given more game time.
In which case we should have thanked Long for his efforts and wished him a safe journey back to Lincoln.

Not a great result today but in the context of our league position hardly the end of the world either.
A poor performance that lacked our trademark high tempo, precise play. We created a lot of chances but didn't really work their keeper enough. That has to improve over the next few games, starting Tuesday night.
As basically everyone has already pointed out Long just isn't good enough, he must have cost us at least 4 goals this season because he can't catch a cold and that's a really poor goal to lose right at the end of the game.
McGlynn has obviously made his mind up to do this rotation thing with the keepers but f**k knows why.
I actually think we hammered them in the first half without making it count obviously.
Second half much more sluggish but still comfortable until the nonsense at the end.

Okay, we could alternatively blame Lang for a terrible clearance just before that gave them possession unnecessarily. Or MacIver for missing god knows how many chances. Or Miller for putting in several poor balls.
Or we can accept that we succeed or fail as a team, not individuals. Bottom line is we don’t know - it was an off day and the players that didn’t play could’ve easily been worse.
It was a goalkeeping error end of story.

Stay classy.
Appalling manners and grammar.
Used done well as a deliberate response to well done.
Fully accept that I have appalling manners though and Annan were shite.

No red dots from me, completely agree.
See McGlynn is talking about giving the goalies a month each? Long in January, Hogarth February and Long now in March? Madness.
This switching the Keepers is pub team patter.
Get it stopped.

Or maybe the manager has sat the two lads down and agreed a plan of month about? Long played all January, Hogarth all February. March starts and Long is back in. Not that I agree with it TBH but McGlynn has already said there was no deal with Lincoln.
As you know not hugely impressed by either keeper but Hogarth didn’t deserve to be dropped and he is our player.
Play him to the end of the season (or until he has a horrendous game) and stop making unnecessary changes.

Hardly heads gone. That’s two bang average performances in a row. If it wasn’t for Hogarth’s big saves last week , we’d have drawn/lost that too. All it takes is for a couple of draws and Hamilton wins (like today ) and it’s opened up again. 3 away games in a row too to some difficult places.
Calm down!

Folk have every right to boo that performance. The keeper is dug meat and created very little against them. The last 10 minutes we couldn’t even pass it to each other. As Sir Alex once said “they get plenty praise, so they’ll get the criticism when they deserve it”.
We could/ should have been 4 or 5 up at half time with the amount of clear chances we created!

Well done to Annan should have ended your rant ? Civility is honourable.
What was it you done well except accepting a gift from our keeper.
You were absolutely shite.

Got what we deserved, outrageous amount of missed chances and keeper selling the jerseys yet again.

Resting players carrying knocks is not squad rotation it’s common sense.
Fannying around with the team such as at Edinburgh is and really should be avoided.

Question: I have a season ticket for the KM but my brother doesn't. We are going on Saturday. If the KM is sold out again for pay at the gate, can my brother get into the away stand instead of the main stand like he went to last time? He thinks he will get a better view from the away stand with the two nearly full stand in front of him.
Why doesn’t he buy a ticket online?

I lived opposite the Pines. They were more aware of underage drinking than else where. Got challenged a little but that was 1975. Awful disco I seem to remember.
They weren’t too fussed when my mate asked the barman for “two pints of beer please”!
That would have been 1979 prior to a senior youth club disco at the school.

I really miss a decent pint of heavy in a pub.
Edit to add I did my underage drinking in The Pines in Denny which was basically the senior common room for Denny High in all but name.

Underage drinking - I used to go with Bubble (Brian Guthrie) to the Centurion after each home game. I was 13 and could pass for maybe 16 but no-one cared. I'd manage a crazy 4 or 5 pints then get on a bus home to Denny swallowing polo mints. I only once got drunk enough that my mother realised I was pissed. I think that illegal drinking however made me less of a drinker in later life although I always loved beer.
In fact the reason why I drink heavy to this day (and try asking for that from a Millennial bar person these days) was it was the only beer I had heard of when it was my time to go up and buy and I was nervous enough as it was to ask for anything more complicated than "3 pints of heavy please." When did the Centurion close?
I really miss a decent pint of heavy in a pub.

Entirely possible that we will win this shitey league by more than 20 points.

We should have been out of sight after 5 minutes but that has nothing to do with the ongoing goalkeeping nonsense.
No amount of whataboutery excuses that.
