Optimistic we can get something from this game.

Aberdeen coming off the back of a tough game last night and also missing Mitov.

Simo in the press today saying that Andre is a doubt and Barry Douglas is still out. Who comes in at left back for us if Andre dosent make it? Neilson?

Strikers are a concern for me at the moment. Think we need to try and get a settled front line. Clark and Benji the two best options for me at the moment with Adama coming on in the last 20/30 minutes to catch teams with his pace. Would like to see Matt Smith in the middle of park again alongside Sven and Holt. Clark playing off the strikers isn’t for me. We are not using him to his strengths. Would like to see Franczak get a game in the role behind the strikers. I think his energy could offer us something different.

Farcical again that anyone that wants to go to the game has to buy a ticket by tomorrow afternoon at the latest and no option to pay at the gate.

Yeah i think Cameron replacing Raymond would make sense, but you do wonder if Neilson at LB and Carey on that side might work?

Neilson would make sense running inside of Carey in those situations and taking it on his right foot and coming inside, while Kimpioka goes wide left. 

Maybe overthinking it.

I don't think you are, we've seen that Neilson is able to get forward and I thought he done well at RB against Kilmarnock combining with Holt and Essel.

Has it ever been stated what the problem is with Douglas. Nothing been mentioned since he was left out about 3 games ago as far as I could see.

Valakari said a few days ago that they had to rush Douglas into games too quickly, he picked up a calf injury due to that, and said its likely we don't see him play again for a few weeks.

Press conference yesterday, Simo just said that Douglas isn't fully fit. Might be he risks him today
