Any word on Coulson?

Now I’ve seen the tackle again I think it’s more a red than yellow.

Same here after seeing it on tv, but I’ll admit that at the time , from my view in the South Stand  a yellow seemed right. But the ref was just a few yards away with a clear view.

And I think Gallagher was just fuckin slow rather than deliberately dirty.

He's a fucking coward. 

Fine when he's got a baseball bat or tackling someone from behind but didn't see him win many face to face battles in a red shirt against strikers last season, got rag dolled a few times.

Struck me as a bit kari arnasson but nothing like as talented.

File under disappointing.

Arnasson was struggling when we resigned him as a defender. In his first spell when he was a much younger midfielder the couple of times he played centre back he looked decent.

I would put him much more akin to Bug Wullie Garner minus the shit hot punditry of course.

Yet he looked a million dollars for Iceland at the back which just added to the mystery

I really don’t think he was fully fit is the only explanation I can think of along with being on the slow side with the defensive midfield lynchpin of Dom Ball playing in front of him. Poor bastard didn’t stand a chance

Was watching the highlights/full match replay on RedTV and really impressed with Jack McKenzie on the comms. He speaks really well and is not afraid to say what we're doing wrong tactically etc.
