I realise I may be in the minority here, even in this haven from retards (such as it is), but I'd love to have a young-again Dillon and Rankin. Those guys are exactly what we need right now.
I'd go for Robertson, Armstrong, Gauld and GMS myself. And a young John Souttar.

Naturally. At their peak, that team was awesome. But we don't have them any more. The men I mentioned we actually have.

I'm sure when we go down, we'll manage to pick up a few players like Rankin who is no longer wanted by premier sides. Or we should go after people like that at least.

Hibs seem to suffer from a lack of experience at times, but have plenty talent, whereas rangers just mostly grind out results with a bunch of average players plus the odd young player.

Wishing a player was young again seems less realistic than wishing we could have a player we don't have but at their current age.

I think you're - wilfully - missing the point.

I'm sure you knew what I meant was that the effort and commitment to the team and club would be nice going forward, beyond the likely career span of these fine men.

Jeez, what did Zwick do to deserve being dropped so unceremoniously....

Good to see Morris back though.

ETA: Strike that, just heard on BT Sport that Zwick is injured.

A bit unlucky to go in level given goal machine Anier's wonder strike and a couple of decent saves from their keeper. Very harsh free kick to concede (was that Dow's first touch?) and poor keeping for the goal...although credit Szromnik for his great save in the first five minutes when the rest of his defence fell asleep.

More huff and puff to come but we can still win this.

Not sure about the long ball tactics but they're better than the not going forward at all tactics we've employed in some games this season.

We were honking second half

Heads dropped from conceding equaliser and never recovered.

Who does the inspirational team talk?

Who decides the f*cking line up?

For sure we haven't been good all season and we deserve to go down.

At least we don't have to face newco next year

Yeah, we could have won it, but that rather assumes that you turn up for at least some of the second half. Do we ever play even half decent for two halves of a game?

Dreadfully disappointing. And down. Surely now, down. Dundee can more or less hammer one of the final nails in next week now. Eep.
