King Kenny

Paul Deas is the player closest to the ref

Turnbull could possibly move across with Barton dropping back. In saying that, I'm sure McGinn would do fine on the left and I've been impressed with Nitriansky from the little we've saw of him. Bad one for Christie, just when he was cementing his place in the team.

I'd try bringing Bannigan in for Edwards for the next game. Edwards does a lot of running around but he has very little composure and his passing needs big improvements. Bannigan needs to start games in order to get back to where he was, it's not going to happen with 15 minute cameos.

Scully is glued to his line, probably plays a big reason why our defence sits so deep

Frustation is the only emotion after that one. First half was decent, both teams having a go with Thistle having the better of it. Spittal's goal was a great run followed by a dreadful finish followed by even worse goalkeeping! Had Barton's header gone in just before half time then we'd have been looking at a different game. We started the 2nd half ok, Spittal took one off Barton's toe when he looked in the better position. After that we did what we seem to always do and dropped deeper and deeper. Once Archie took Doolan off for Bannigan we were effectively admitting that holding out for 1-0 was our aim. The most annoying thing was that it took Hearts to score before we awoke from our slumber and started attacking them again. We could have nicked it at the end if the final ball/decision making was better. Motherwell showed against Aberdeen in the cup on Thursday that the best form of defense is attack. Until we learn this then we'll keep dropping points. We have the players but we need to start turning these draws in to wins. Lastly, I hope Elliot's injury isn't too bad.

I think a plaque would be a very fitting tribute, glad to hear this is going ahead.

Yep, doesn't hide. Nothing you mention indicates that he hides, if anything it proves he's constantly looking for the ball. I'm not for a minute saying he's been brilliant this season but it seems he's been singled out already as this seasons fall guy.

I thought we played pretty well for most of the 90 minutes. Not sure why do much hate for Barton? It's clear he isn't strong enough to play in a defensive tackling role but he always provides an option for an outball and never hides. Once again our biggest issue is decision making/final ball in the final third of the pitch. We had so many chances ruined by wrong options/poor crosses. Sammon was excellent tonight up top, perhaps should have put the header away but it was a top save. Extra time was a disaster, a real sore one to take.

Scully's footwork is dreadful when it comes to diving

From half time until the red card I thought we were excellent. Right in their faces and pressing high up the pitch. First half was the complete opposite. I thought Storey played pretty well, he's quick and direct. McGinn had a decent debut and Elliot was excellent on the left. Nice to see him with the captains armband as well, the guy has been a brilliant servant to us. Team did well to get the point in the end, Sammon and Bannigan played a key role in seeing it out. Time to be more positive and look forward to the games coming up

McCoist was bang on about Edwards challenge. Sutton is a circus act, screams loudly about any small decisions to create controversy.

How Rangers got the throw in before the goal is a joke. Good strike but think Scully might have done better

See what happens when they make the right decisions in attack!

Execution and decision making in attack has been poor. Couple of times we've been in behind and picked the completely wrong option

That's a pretty embarrassing assumption.

Wonder why we've only listed 6 subs? Judging by the pics on twitter, McGinn is with the squad. Fingers crossed the boys get the job done.

I'd fancy Elliot's chances if he's marking Charlie Christie!

Glad to see we're keeping our heads after the first competitive game of the season!

Dumbuya has had surgery on a new knee injury, out for a few months. Looks like we'll be adding a full back to the list of players we're after.

Osman has been posting videos on social media of working hard in the gym. I don't think he's so much as injured but rather working his way back from the end of season surgery he had.

Away strip is a belter!

He stated earlier in the week that Lindsay should be looking at a club higher up than Oxford. I'd imagine he would hold similar ambitions for his own career.

First hint has the badge on a very bright blue colour....

Hibs in for Simon Murray. Looks mine he won't be Firhill bound

I think it is being fair to say that the attitude yesterday was a disgrace. We've been hammered before and I'm sure we will be again. To my mind, once that first goal went in yesterday you could clearly see several players just wander back to position. There was no inquest, demanding more of each other. Same happened after the 2nd, 3rd etc. Aberdeen are a great team, as are Celtic (for our standard anyway) but we didn't lay a glove on either. It's been a great season but that shouldn't excuse the last 2 performances. At the very least a bit of professional pride should come in to it.
