    Why?

    Why have paid near on £1m for a striker and he can't get a game in a side that struggle to score.

    Looking at the stats we've matched wolves in all departments today and it's left to a defender to get our only goal.
    If Thiam isn't good enough why have we thrown £1m away? Was he bought to appease the fans?

    He might not be up to it but at least give the lad a chance we're not going to be any worse off than we are at the minute especially if we stick to this stupid 4-5-1 formation, if we'd got McBurnie it might have worked but we didn't get him so let's forget it.

    And half a million for Mallan who can't get on the bench, even though he doesn't seem to put a foot wrong when playing for Scotland and Barnsley u23s?

    Think Mallan has struggled with the step up to this level

    Panic buy ? Bought without seeing much of him actual play.

    I'm just going on what his Dad said , fitness wise and learning how Hecky wants to play has been a big step up but he's working hard to fit in .

    Scottish Championship is like our League 2 level
