    I really like Rusk. I would be okay if he was the new manager!

    Too early to say, but he definitely seems to get more out of this team than Juric and Martin. Probably another indictment of our recruitment more than anything.

    Still making some bad passing decisions at the back, passing square to a player who gets closed down immediately instead of going back to Rambo in acres of space.

    Downes and Chucky looking good again in that double pivot.

    I’m way behind on the clock. Had a bit of buffering over here

    You’re probably not. I’m actually from the future.

    Next season is great by the way. We go 24 unbeaten but still win the league. Ross Stewart with 12 goals

    But Selles looked crap as we fell down a division. Rusk actually looks competent in an awful situation. We haven’t conceded a single first half goal under Rusk - which means his teams have always been in games.

    Decent. Would rather we didn’t rely so much on miskicks in the second half though.

    Pretty good half. Been under the cosh a huge amount as expected but largely dealt with it pretty well - not sure we can survive that sort of pressure all game though so need a second.

    Insurance bet placed.

    A reasonable half, we look like we have a plan. Stephens showed good leadership at the back and even scored one of those goal things.

    I have to say I’ve never seen KWP play worse for us. Kept giving the ball away and was continually outpaced by Willian, who is 108 years old.

    But Fernandes is just awesome.

    Anyone think Sulemana should have had a penalty but as he didn't fall over it was ignored.
