I see SC was represented today by top London based lawyer Paul Gilroy QC, an employment law expert who specialises in football, he happens to also represent Sir Alex Ferguson & Luis Van Gal.

Perhaps he's the reason the charge was virtually quashed barring a repeat offence this season......

Whilst bored at the Oldham v Cheltenham game tonight,  I noticed JJ was out for dinner tonight with "footballing advisor" Barry Hughes according to his Instagram.
 
Wonder what advise he is giving. New studs perhaps?
 
 
Hughes is the agent for James McCarthy I'm sure, as well as a few other players. It's one way of legitimising yourself I suppose.

Is he playing well? 

Terrible. You'd be best leaving him with us, he's miles off your first team.

Seriously though, he's been absolutely great. He came  into a dire team playing under a manager who everyone knew was about to get sacked, put in a Man of the Match performance on his debut (and got a goal), followed it up with an excellent showing (and an assist) against the runaway league leaders, and was downright unplayable (under his third manager in three games) at the weekend.

He's exciting on the ball, hardworking, brave, very skillful, not afraid to shoot and seems like a great lad. I'd love it if we could hang onto him for the season, there aren't too many better players in League One.

I've stuck our highlights from the weekend below. He sets up the second goal at 3m43, and then goes on a great run to score the fourth at about 7m40.

That's excellent!  He started extremely well with us last season, although in hindsight may have been the standout of a bad bunch - he was certainly one who was very quickly overlooked by Steve Clarke, and hasn't really had an opportunity since - so I can't seem to think he'll be back with us this season, the only thing is they might want to have a look at him in the league above for the second half of the season? 

Certainly skilful, I tend to like him - hope he keeps doing well for you :)

That's kind of what prompted my question, he can only play for ourselves or Killie for the rest of the campaign - so if he's unlikely to get a look in at Rugby Park then he'd be best playing 90 minutes every week with us.

Guess you'll have every Sons fan hoping that your good form continues, and Clarke sticks with the guys he's got!

At this stage, I would doubt he'll get a look in.  Although we have a loan deal or two ending in December, our midfield places are hotly contested, and I'd imagine Sir Steve will look to bring in new faces/ extend loan deals in December.

Delighted to hear he's playing well for you, he showed occasional flashes of brilliance early on for us.

The club intends to challenge the Fast Track Notice of Complaint issued to Greg Stewart following our match with Hamilton Academical.

A hearing has been scheduled for Thursday, November 1 where a determination on an alleged breach of Disciplinary Rule 200 shall be made.

Until an outcome is reached, Greg remains available for selection including for tonight's Ladbrokes Premiership match against Rangers at Ibrox.
