Just turn on the sprinklers at full tilt.

Lacking width badly. We've had some rough breaks against this lot over the years, but extremely fortunate to be level at halftime.

The Ross situation is a strange one. We're only four games in and we've gained six of our ten points in the short time he's been on the park, not forgetting the penalty he earned against Morton. I honestly thought he'd kick on once fit.

And come back again.

So the guy who brought an Argentina flag when Casalinuovo played for has no right to be at Stark's Park?

And the Queen Mother was celebrating as not only did she have us as one of her five aways that day, but she began a love-in with Ivan Mballa.

Yes. And Mickey.

I saw the flag in the Estuary before the Pars League Cup game and also on display at Annan. I've always liked to think of Rovers as being a broad church politically and religiously, therefore I've no idea why some people get themselves into a mess over a flag, unless they see the Rovers as being the sporting wing of some political organisation.

Please tell me David Bates isn't involved, and if he is, easy on the jokes please.

The first half wasn't a pretty watch, but I think it was just a case of letting them throw their punches, then picking them off as they tired. Great set up play by Easton for the 2nd and 3rd. Job done.

My thoughts initially as well, but their away strip is green with white chevrons, so I might just about have to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Possibly waiting to see if Cliftonville were as, ahem, robust as Glenavon were a few seasons back, before committing Ross. They're not.

There have been a lot of young goalkeepers who have been seriously hyped early in their careers and not remotely fulfilled it (Michael Watt, Stewart Kerr, some guy who went from Stirling Albion to Everton), but I honestly have to say your boy looks the real deal.

A strange comment from a fan of a team which has the best kit in Scotland by a country mile this season.

The thing that gobsmacked me was making a triple substitution when you're 2-1 up, but a man down. Given you made a sub at half time, you were still allowed three breaks in play, so surely you make three individual substitutions in order to run the clock down? As far as the game itself was concerned, folk around me were berating Murray's tactics due to us not putting the game to bed, but I thought his shape and tactics were spot on - they weren't the reasons we failed to convert more of the many decent chances we created, nor the reason for the defensive calamities which so very nearly cost us.

On more important matters, we have doner meat with baba sauce pies tomorrow.

Hopefully McPake.

Goncalves has been released from Livingston. He'll be looking for a club. Some poor sods are about to get landed.

Two league goals in four games (one from a centre half and the other a penalty), suggests Mitchell should improve them.

If a load of **** are heading through, I'd stick them right behind the pillars in the main stand with restricted views. Give them a taste of their own medicine.

I really rate Mitchell. His work rate is tremendous and he showed great positional intelligence to bag the equaliser at Firhill on the opening day of the league season.

To cheer the mighty Rovers?

Hope the street map continues to the back so you can see Osprey Heights.

I don't like to be greedy. If he ships five, I'll happily spare him the red card.

That's what I was meaning - not reachable by steamer.
