I've been really impressed with him - as much as I have been with Gallacher, which is a goodly bit of praise. With the exception of Turnbull, he's as good at playing forward passes as any midfielder we've had in the past few years. Wasn't particularly hyped about his signing TBH - mostly as ICT supporters always seemed quite equivocal about him (decent footballer but lazy, etc) - so he's been a nice surprise to say the least.
As far as I remember, our last 2 games against County were the massively dispiriting defeat in the cup last year and the mildly dispiriting 1-0 defeat at the end of 16/17 - so we're due a decent performance. Unless injury requires it, I'd be really surprised if we changed last week's team - there were very few if any failures and they must be confident.
Any chance of Van Der Weg re-signing in time for the game?
Your wingers wouldn't be fast anymore if Kenny was playing...

We are a bit of a mixed bag this year it seems. Some good stuff against Hamilton and Hearts then pastings by Livi and Aberdeen.
We showed we can grind out results on Saturday, but Motherwell look very very strong this season and wouldn't be surprised if they're in the top 4.
I'd like to see Henderson and Paton both keep their places in midfield with more of an enforcer type behind them.

A hard fought and exciting 2-2 is my prediction.

Listening to another delightful Brexit conversation this morning.
One guy voted for, his reason was; 'to stop that boot Sturgeon letting in all the Syrian refugees'. The old boy beside him seems to think Corbyn and Sturgeon are plotting with the Russians to turn Britain into a communist state.
I've overheard the first guy previously discuss how he's heard from a reliable inside source, that the SNP are involved in the coverup of child abuse at Celtic and are also heavily involved with the IRA. I'll give you two guesses as to what football team they both support.
Brechin or St Duthus imo

Bit weird?Used to have a female cleaner who would shout in the door anyone in. She didnt do this to avoid embarrassment and come back later though. She did it to identify who was shitting so that she knew who she was attempting to strike up a conversation with through the shitter door. Vile.
That's grim, if someone is emptying their bowels I can't think of anything worse than asking them what they're up to at the weekend etc.

Lovely wee shoulder injury during my bench warm up, had to bail the session and do arms and abs instead. Gutted as I'm only just back from a knee injury.

It's almost impressive the lengths people go to, to avoid doing work

Is it fair to assume that Vigurs will be out for a while again? He limped off having taken a knock to his foot - it was a foot injury that kept him out for most of last season too.
Yeah I'd think so, shame as we actually looked good to start with with him in a 3

A few year back out department got so badly slaughtered in a survey, the head of the department panicked and called a meeting for us to address issues.
After listening to us slaughter the place for an hour, she turned around and said she couldn’t make any of the issues we raised go away, so we either had to move department or quit.Sounds about right, the 'If you're not happy leave' approach

Had a Tennents Ember for the first time in a pub in Lairg, very decent.

Where I work those surveys are just there to make the staff think they have a say, when in reality the higher ups don't care what you think as long as you keep coming in and doing your work.

Aye semi finals of diddy cups against Ross County or some pish like that. And 'Europe' is meaningless, who was it against fuckin Malmo or something. If he wants to become a better player and demonstrate he's worth a start he needs to move to a decent league.
Last time we played Celtic in a 'Diddy cup' we went on to win said 'Diddy cup' FYI.

I recall figures of £20k-£30k mentioned at the time.
Well worth it!

Any update on when Baxter is back?
Laidlaw is going to singlehandedly lose us games at this rate.

I'm always keen to have a pop at Stubbs, although it's possible that Stewart needed that season in the Championship. He'd been out on loan in league 1 when we won the Championship so it would've been a big jump to go straight to the Premiership.
Stubbs problem was that he got rid of Reilly and Stewart yet only brought in Cody Cooke.
I read on twitter that Stewart has 7 goals and 2 assists in his last 10 games. That's unreal. I'm happy to see him doing well, albeit I'd prefer if it wasn't against us.He's the first name on the team sheet at the minute, really good bit of business getting him for free.

That sounds very much like the start of a rant about Alan Stubbs...
If any St Mirren fan wants to use it as the start of their rant be my guest

Ross Stewart will be our top scorer this season and I wouldn't bet against him getting 10+ league goals

What a strange game.
Still feel we need a Draper type back in midfield.
I thought Henderson and especially Paton did well.
Three points when at one point it looked like we'd get none.
HAPPY DAYS!

Fair play to Pukki winning Player of the Month, some start he's made at Norwich considering he's been absolutely bang average the rest of his career.
Can't wait for Eboue Kouassi to be lighting up the EPL in the coming years

Changed my mind on how I'd like us to set up for this.
Laidlaw
Fraser Watson Morris Foster
Mullin Vigurs Grivosti Henderson Gardyne
Stewart
I'm tempted to give Power a start as the ability of Vigurs and Henderson on the ball could find the channel for him to burst into but he's probably suited as a sub in home games.
