The Dundee game was the first time I had seen the new keeper. He made a few decent saves but he looked a bit flustered at times, and spilled shots on a couple of occasions. I think I'd still rather have McGurn as the No.1.

Heard today that McGurn had signed a PCA with Dunfermline.

Maybe it's just a very pre-contract agreement, and won't take affect until next summer when his part time deal with us expires?

Obviously not, I'm just speculating.

Right enough, I completely forgot about that. Some memory.

Well...............I know a man, who knows a man, who knows another man who has a dog. If you ask this dog to bark once for yes and twice for no he will answer your question..............well normally.............however, i could'nt pass the chance up, soooooooooooo

I said, is it true that Mc gurn has signed a pre contract agreement with partick whistle................and he barked just the once!.

Now I know some of you will be sceptical......and others may indeed have some more questions, but, I promised this guy that I would adhere to total confidentiality, and therefore cant tell you his breed or sex (he barked once when I mentioned sex, hell, I howl masell when ah hear the word) Wink

So, if its true, and he is a pretty smart dog, then you read it here first. Shocked

Good to see big Davie back between the sticks. Tbh, I hope he's back in the team for the rest of the season, I can see him being the x-factor in the last 5 games, pulling off some incredible saves....hopefully a few at EEP!

The positive way to look at it is that perhaps having a few weeks out of the team may have put the fire in McGurn's belly and given him the motivation to really put in that little bit extra to help see us over the line.

I understood McGlynn's thinking with McNeil's selection, but McGurn has to have won his place back after today. He looked calm and composed the whole time he was on the pitch, and dealt with passbacks, and crosses better than I remembered him doing in the weeks before he lost his place.

This is one of the reasons why McGurn should remain between the sticks:

Having watched the you tube clip of the save and then the clip of the Dundee goal i'd say it was a good save but not a great save but i do think McGurn was at fault for the Dundee goal. He is still a top keeper though.

Hah! What a guy! Brilliant to keep us in it. If that had gone in, I can only dread to think!
