Injured again won't be seen for 2/3 weeks how did he pass his medical looking like another player on a season long contract and hardly featuring we like signing Injured players.
Thigh strain.
Might have happened in training.

What do you mean 'another' ... I'm pretty sure last season Tiensa was our only long term injury and I think in the past few seasons we've faired well with most players being regularly available for selection
Compared to some clubs, I think we've had it good in this aspect

No surprise with the scoreline. A Scottish premiership side who have qualified for Europe playing an EFL 2 side who are only 3 weeks into pre season. Kilmarnock start their European campaign next week.
On the other hand both Fleetwood and Carlisle managed to get draws against opposition of a similar calibre.

We got our pants pulled down by Blackpool last pre-season
Didn’t exactly do us any harm did it
If we lose 5-0 on august 10th that’s when you worry
Pre-season friendlies mean absolutely nothing

Yes we were very lucky Warren was injured for a lot of games mid season

Having been there yesterday I think.we have the ingredients,ie players to make a good side at our level and with a couple more additions could once again hold our position and maybe even go higher.Whether we can replicate the form of the last two seasons remains to.be seen.In the first half we more tham held our own until we gave away that penalty.Like Adam said we could have even scored because for quite a lot of the first half we dominated the game.I would just say give Steve Clemence the chance to get the players used to his system.It may be a bit rocky at the start but so was Ian Evatts first season.From what I saw we just have to have patience and who knows where we could end up.Keep the faith.

I guess that Salford will be really panicking as they could only draw with fc united……
Far too early to be concerned.

It’s certainly not happened in a game

Game off due to Stockport changing training schedule.
