    We have to give our owner the benefit of time , the alternatives are too risky. Its a dilema but we have to play more of the long game, in both senses, imo., unless that is fortune smiles at us for once, and we find another Ross Stewart .

    Good player though with loads of experience. Give me him in the middle of the park ahead of Ekwah, all day long

    Beale or Dodds would have had him as a lone striker or centre half

    Seriously? Jesus. Pleased you're nowhere near the recruitment team at the club.

    Find your dislike for Ekwah but defence of Roberts pretty bizarre tbh. At least Ekwah has contributed.

    Roberts has had a terrible season, no doubt. Ekwah is just soft as ****e imo. Far too casual

    He's not been good, but he's been constantly asked to play as the deepest midfielder when he just can't. Thats not exactly his fault is it? When he has played more advanced, Southampton, Plymouth and Stoke all at home he's been good.

    The deficiencies within recruitment to not get a player who could play alongside both Neil and Ekwah has been detrimental to both of them and the whole team.
