Giving away a soft penalty to let them back into the match was criminal. Moffat , a player with talent, got booked needlessly and i think it lead to him being subbed in case he got a second yellow, considering the bizarre decision making by the ref. He should have scored to put us 3-2 up. That’s a bad miss. Jet ballooning the ball instead of getting a shot on target was dreadful. The manager needs to get off Garrity’s back. No other player gets as much criticism, much of which is unjustified. He gets blamed for situations not of his making. I understand taking Moffat off due to his yellow, however too many subs disrupt the shape and the players coming on are rarely improvements. Reynolds is woeful, unfortunately. We haven’t got time to let players settle in while we get knocked out of the league cup and don’t win in four league matches. Did we do any proper scouting on him except for the youtube footage of his Ipswich goal? If he is coming on ahead of Davies then it doesn’t say much for Davies. Taking Ali Crawford off today was perplexing, especially when Blues is the replacement. And i’ve seen enough of King now. He won’t improve. His Morton career has been occasional good work but it’s outweighed by the bad. He needs to sharpen up and quickly when he comes on.

I’ve seen the team twice now. It’s very early days. The concerns based on what i’ve seen so far include benching Baird to accommodate Broadfoot. Boyes isn’t exactly commanding as yet either. Delaney has yet to settle at left back. If Davies is a goalscorer why are we playing him wide right? Likewise if Reynolds isn’t a goalscorer then why is he playing through the middle ?

Where’s King? Not on the bench again tonight

I see that fans without season tickets can now buy e-tickets . Has anyone tried it ? Did it work ok ? if it works then it saves fans queuing at the ticket office , which is a good thing .

Did Erik move back to Denmark? He stayed in South st when I was a lad 30 years ago

Vuvuzelas!

Quite literally, Status Quo's 1991 album Rock Til You Drop. For a bit of variety had Persephone's Bees on in the car this afternoon

Whilst reading the Telegraph's report about John Boag I found it particularly sad that a neighbour hadn't seen him for weeks. As details are scarce at the moment I sincerely hope that John wasn't there for any significant period of time before being discovered as that would make a sad story even more tragic. With this in mind, should we all take a look at ourselves and use this as a reminder to text that pal we havent contacted for ages, phone your mum to see how she is getting on, drop in on your granny for a chat and a cup of tea ?
