    Personally I thought McNulty was a good signing before the season started, there were mitigating circumstances around his lack of goals last season, most notably he was played out of position most of the time as Shankland was still there. However, he has had plenty time now in his favoured position and is just not delivering.

    But, building a good side needs to start from the defence and we have that part of the game covered. Now we need to move on and get better up the park. Signing Watt was a great start of that.

    You were doing so well in my eyes as well!

    My dad in the late 50s and through the 60s went to see both sides, and when both teams were away, he would be one of many who went through to see Raith as well!

    However, its bad enough to put ourselves through what our team are serving up, but to set foot in Dense as well?

    Neilson did that with Siegrist, Reynolds/Connolly, Butcher and eventually Shankland.

    Micky did it with Siegrist, Edwards/Reynolds, Fuchs and Shankland, or thereabouts,

    Tam has Siegrist, Edwards/Mulgrew, and not much else forward of that! However, i am now minded to say the teams best foundation is Siegrist with Edwards/Butcher/Graham in front of him.

    I think we have a decent back line for our standard its really good, but its a bit everything great defending , good defending all hand on deck defending, woeful finishing great goal keeping, OGs we have it all.
