Beat me to it

Isn't it a Fifa rule? I'm sure a club somewhere took them to court over it about 10 years ago! Although it's probably technicalities around being outside the SPFL it's not a member of Fifa or something so only applies in the SPFL

Robinson clearly not fancied (if that rumour is true) Joyce works for the Times.

I like the busy end of December. I'm off, can go enjoy the games more with friends. A few weekends free of football in January while I'm skint and burst from Christmas works out well!

Booth away to Spartans.

Don't believe so Mo mate. Played away to Killie last season pre split and he played very well. Many fans were loving him. Played under MacLean in the league cup this season where it went poorly for him and the rest and he didn't feature again. That's been it for him. Although it's the only position we look "good" in as well.

Midweek rearranged game. Sigh.

Shambles

Notice how it's the Dundee fans talking about the the Saints fans calling it a Derby again? All I ever see is Dundee fans mentioning it. Why was your first though the St Johnstone fans? As for the game. It'll be the usual. We'll score and then they'll end up sitting back for 30-40 mins trying to hold on, which won't work.

They do. You're unlikely to get them in the post in time now though. Thats why its in person only now. Dundee don't offer e-tickets so even if you did purchase online you'd still need to go in to collect them. The issue here is Dundee's inability to offer any form of service for tickets themselves other than sending them to Saints and saying "deal with this". Saints providing manpower and effort all for Dundee to make the profit. Its Saints who've been using their online system to sell Dundee's tickets which Saints will be having to pay the third party to arrange.

Will they open the bottom sections?

Wonder if international clearance might be an issue if they're signed from elsewhere with offices being mostly closed? Hibs game from this weekend was moved to a few weeks ago to fill an empty Sat and free up the busy schedule a bit.

There's a section of the population who are thick as f**k isn't there?

He's the "Loans manager" at Burnley. He would have been the one who organised the move to Perth.

Probably a lot to do with the fact Kane can't finish his dinner. It's probably been 2 years since I'm seen Kane his a shot that wasn't a scuffed effort.

Kane Ritchie-Hosler I think???

Jepchott the obvious outward one. Cooke loan cut short, if not by us by Newcastle as he hasn't featured enough. Crawford out on loan to see out his contract. Issue will be if he's not training then no one will want someone weeks and weeks away from fitness. Booth like Crawford, he won't walk away early but a loan so he can go play somewhere. Chance for him to impress and earn a deal for next year elsewhere, probably part time. Ballantyne, disappeared but a loan to get him playing again? Can't see him being overly keen on a perm move to part time move in Jan. The issue here really is moving folk on... Can't see many clubs biting are hands off for any of these players. In terms of fitness, what was wrong with MacPherson now? He certainly wasn't training last week

Small things but.. McGowan pushing young Fran to have a wee moment of his own in front of the East Stand as the other players were leaving the field.

Depends on the £. If Kane's contact is due in Jan then he might be the one allowed to leave due to the fact he's out of contract. Although I don't disagree with you in terms of production. Stevie would be my first candidate up front for the chop.

Carey frustrates me so much.

Live.... How was that offside? Half the Hibs team were on the line.

Only saving grace on Halliday is midfield is probably bottom of the signing priority list as it's the strongest area. Although he could play left back...

On that subject, how many Hearts players will Levein try to bring in? The likes of Forrest on loan etc
