I am very pleased at how it ended after the horror feeling of minute one but I do think it is worth noting that Hamilton were atrocious. I think they had a number of players out - half a team maybe? - it certainly looked that way. They gave us a corner once from the half way line with us with 10 men and none of them near the ball. They gifted us goals. Their own manager admitted it was unacceptable and suicidally sloppy. They may not have been easy to beat in the games you mention, I have no idea, but they certainly were last night. I am happy we came back and won as we did, but I don't think comparing other Hamilton scores is necessarily instructive unless they had the same players playing just as badly. They weren't just poor, they were putrid. Between their abysmal performance and the horrendous pitch, my eyes were bleeding. We were on a pitch and v opponents that had nothing to do with football. Thank f@ck we pulled together and came through the occasion, however. PS I am very happy for Pedro and the team, this is in no way getting at them, just at Hamilton!

FT 1-4. Night all

Hamilton are shockingly bad. They are like.....well, I'm not sure who to equate them to, tbh

McCrorie gives away a penalty. Wes saves. Craigan gutted, as he’d just shrieked: “Is this the beginning of the comeback” with longing in his voice. Herrara on for Morelos

After spending the entire commentary begging for a red for Pena, Craigan has the cheek to say he doesn't "like to see players sent off..."

58 minutes 4-1 Had to be a red for them that time – no card at all. Ref’s lost the plot!

Penalty to us!

ffs Jack sent off

He certainly was. I'm struggling to remember the last time a Declan scored for us. The commentators are working so hard to get Pena sent off that it is incredible.

Don't know he is, just agreeing with Frankie that he could be/looks it

1-3 Three goals in under 7 minutes! Candeias. BTW Morelos was right through with only the keeper to beat before that. 10 minutes ago we’d no shots at all now 4 shots in 9 minutes = 3 goals could/should have been 4. Candeias ran to Pedro. Pedro only up to hug him. Think he is ill the way he looks and stays sitting.

Windass falling about like someone skating for the first time. not saying it is his fault btw Gooooooooooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal DJ again

Yessssssssssssss 1-1 great solo run and RIGHT foot shot from Declan John

Shocking "tackle" from Pena. We're lucky it was only yellow. Still, on that surface I've no idea how you'd time it properly.

Either he's ill as Frankie says or as you say finished. Or both. Poor sod. Don't think he's ever stayed on his bench before.

ffs...............................

Is it just me or does the pitch not look atrocious?

Could be that, yes

Sutton says if you have a rat who leaks tales like this to the press you must get rid of him (repeated the word rat later). Butcher agreed saying it's a cancer and can spread like cancer.

BT interview even more revealing: Interviewer says dropping Kenny is a big move because he is “a big leader in the dressing room/important player” – 3 or 4 times PC said “so you say” as she repeated it He also says he has no problem with Miller. Sounded like he did though. E.g.: "Do you trust your players?" Pedro ... "The ones that are here, yes " Jack says that we are all together (but that sounded ridiculous in context)

Again we don't use our plastic pitch to prepare. That's the most down I've heard Pedro

Sorry to be dim but I'm unclear as to what the situation is here. Who resigned (as in, what were the Working party doing) and for what reason and what impact will it have? I'm trying to kee a pal in China up to date and he's disatisfied with my patchy report on this. ta in advance.

I suspect he is hoping to replace PC

What an excellent read, many thanks.
