And the Morelos kick at Turnbull

For me we do, we should be giving Andy McCarthy a sustained run of games, he has not let us down any time he has played and looks a good prospect. He cannot be any worse than Adam has been in there this season.

I'm not so sure guys, I feel the guys playing at the highest level and in form should at least be in the squad, it's not something other countries get nervous about. Take Wales throwing 17 year old Ben Woodburn in during their make or break last round of games rather than more experienced players - scored the winner in the first match and assisted the winner in the second. By all accounts Lindsay handled Fernando Llorente very well last week, whilst Berra struggled against Miles Storey at the weekend. Mulgrew, decent player that he is, is playing at pretty low level these days. I do take the point that throwing in Liam could be damaging for him if we have a disaster. Does Christie have a Scottish Granny so he can play at right back

Lindsay left out again in favour of a League 1 player and Berra, who was rotten on Saturday

Cerny has been 50/50 for three games now. Surely he must at least be approaching 55/45

Just reading a few Barnsley forums and they seem to be well impressed with Liam, with one guy saying he will be their record sale (encouraging considering they have developed and sold Stones, Mawson and Holgate). Could be a shrewd sell on clause in the mould of Andy Robertson

No I thought Ryan played well tonight and is a worthy number two. Rangers never tested him much but I thought he looked very comfortable

Haha fair enough, that probably just about qualifies as a good game for a Scottish ref. I also forgot about his ridiculous booking of McGinn so I take it back

Throw in excepted, I actually thought Collum had a decent game tonight. Only thing I didn't get was lengthy injuries to Wallace and Jack in the first half and and 2 minutes were added. No injuries in second half and four minutes added. Don't get me wrong, we were wasting a lot of time, but rarely get more than 3 minutes against St J no matter how much time is wasted!

I think we have a decent side but the midfield just is not working. I really feel we should give McCarthy a run - held his own in the team, can pick a pass and is forward minded

And given the early views of Barnsley fans of Lindsay, let's hope some Premiership team pays a daft sum of money for him in a year or 2 and we get a chunky sell on

I'm the same, I really enjoy getting to see the youngsters play competitive games against senior teams. I would also love an away day to Wales so holding out on that for next year It can also be a bit of reality check - the young players at Celtic and Sevco in particular start to realise the step up to competitive football - how many billy big time loanees like Stevie Lennon have turned up thinking they are brilliant because they have banged in 30 goals in the youths ans reserves

Sounds like the guys gave a good account of themselves last night against a side that the first team only squeezed by.

I think your right, it was Accies. I think it was Richard Offiong he tangled with (who, incidentally, was a good striker here before disappearing way down the pyramid in England

Totally agree it was a yellow and thought Niall was lucky not to see red for the challenge in which he got his first yellow, just didn't think Madden was giving it initially

Yeah I didn't think Keown was getting the second yellow either, then he seen McLean and I think got it in the ear from a few Dons players and then gave him a second booking

I thought the defence played well today, Keown and Turnbull were solid (apart from being split at the first goal), Christie was Christie and Milan did well considering its his first start. They were playing against some of the best forwards in recent SPFL history. The central midfield on the other hand were poor and offered little cover - we missed Abdul. I thought Aberdeen shaded it although a couple of their fans were saying we are the best side they have faced this year. I thought Madden was appalling today, although to be fair he got two big decisions right, the penalty (which I've seen back several times) and the red card. All round though he was terrible and the joyous hug for Scott Wright when he went off was ridiculous from a guy under the cosh from the home support. All that said, think that is Madden's first time back at Firhill since his cancer - great to see him back after overcoming what was probably a horrific experience for him and his family. Final word on the penalty - stonewaller and stupid shove from Banzo...but a shove identical to that which Biton got away with the other week

Yes it was a total embarrassment from a referee!

So frustrating that we let Penrice go on loan the day before - our rotten luck with injuries continues. Speedy recovery to Callum, hope to see him back soon. Ross Fleming looks a good prospect but he is just a bit young to throw in.

Haha! You are spot on though - Ryan Christie is an excellent player and will be one we need to deal with

Charlie Christie is about 50

It's about £5 for the parking mate, but there is plenty of on street parking to the south of the ground and you get away quicker

Thoroughly enjoyed the game and looking forward to the next round. It's good to see the way the youth team is instructed to play, all very confident on the ball. The whole team strolled but McCarthy was a clear cut above. Some very exciting prospects in there and hope to see some of them in the first team over the next year or two

Goals 2 and 3 were superb, but particularly Lamonts, what a finish And a great solo from Kev for number 4

Yep and ironically that run was broken by the softest penalty ever...against Celtic!
