Fao Berkey. Its already been said that he`s only going to stay if we avoid relegation. If we go down, he`s offski. I thought everyone was aware of this. Anyway, you know now.

It`s a moot point anyway as we`re staying up. I have no doubt about this (touch wood).

Neil Lennon asking questions of why have so many injuries again, some questioned earlier in the season about our fitness , it seems to be true.

So hope we can keep Lennon to call out some of the incompetence our club has produced over the last 10-15 years.

Hopefully can change it and get backed by the board.

McCann is the only option we have up front really if Kane is unfit. Frustrating as McCann performs better with Kane in the team.

I’d much rather see Cooper start over Yeboah.

I’d probably rather see Bene have a shot up front again as well if it meant Yeboah stayed on the bench.

Can’t play anybody but McCann upfront as that would mean Yeboah.

Out of the two McCann starts.

It really is a massive area we need to address in the summer.

Wouldn’t mind if we could get an hour out of Kane and then replace him with Cooper to go behind McCann or if Kane isn’t fit to start I’d go with Cooper behind McCann and get Kane in for last half hour.

Don’t want Yeboah anywhere near the squad tbh.

Other than posters on forums, I have never heard this being said by anyone connected with the club. I have heard Lennon say the contract is only until the end of the season and it will be ā€œreassessedā€ then, he’s spoken of loving being back involved….but at no point have I heard, officially, that he’ll be gone if we go down.

McCann had arguably his best game for us at Hampden against QP so hopefully it`s an omen and happy hunting ground.

Westies squint kicks, Fri 11 Apr 19:16

If Kane is out I hope the forum curse strikes and young Yeboah bags a double.
I think tomorrows game might suit him and while his decision making has been poor, he`s trying like a bear, I hope it turns for the kid because regardless of what you think of his ability he`s working hard enough.


Unfortunately we can`t afford to be content with players who can only contribute by putting a bit of effort in. McCann is in the same boat effort should be a minimum requirement for every player. We need players with the ability to compete at this level and unfortunately a few of this lot have had more than enough chances at this level and have proved they don`t have the required ability to cut it in the championship.

We aim to be top 4 and competing to get promoted next year unfortunately a vast majority of this team won`t get us to that level.

Still hamstrung by the ludicrous decision to put Sutherland and Dapo out on loan. I see something in both of them and we could really do with them as options. Before anyone jumps down my throat with "they`re not ready" " need game time elsewhere" etc. There is no way they are worse than Yeboah or McCann. The whole issue was for years there was zero competition for positions.....and yet here we are at a critical point in not only the season but our future cobbling a team together with no idea where the vital goals may come from.

I don`t think Mebude has played a single minute in Bulgaria? Not sure if he is injured or not cutting the mustard there either.

Mebude isn’t good enough either apart form his cameo debut at Falkirk he’s not really done much.

I said elsewhere that I would rather have kept Taylor Sutherland and given him an opportunity instead of loaning him out and bringing in Yeboah. Sutherland looks far more likely to contribute to the team than Yeboah has and it’s a missed opportunity given our striker situation.

Saying that just watch Yeboah come on and score the winner today šŸ˜‚

Everyone writing Dapo off is basing it on his time under the old regime when he was feeding off scraps. Shame he didn`t get the chance McCann continues to get.

We are hardly creating numerous chances now.

Lennon will pick the best he`s seen this week and are available. That`s all he can do.

Would love to talk of positives but when we have been rank all season and sit 9th in the table I`d say it`s being realistic.

Why not just play Cooper up front? I`ve already mentioned that Arsenal did something similar a month or so ago. They didn`t have many strikers fit so he played a midfielder up front and it paid off with a few goals. Sometimes you have to think outside the box,give it a try and see what happens.
