Welcome to Almondvale

Welcome to Almondvale, Mr Barcellos. I don't envy your job just now given the current "high-powered" backroom team in charge.

From getting rid of our best players to destroying the morale of others, the latest conversation-stopper is to be told by Davie Hay that "I'm the boss".

Well Mr Keane, I think fans need to be told just who IS running the show as far as team selection goes next season, and I think you know who we'd prefer.

I'm impressed with the new coach's ideas and hope that over the next few years, we do indeed become serious challengers to the Old Firm.

Our supporters should be patient during this time as I believe it will take a while for Barcellos to mould and gel his team — if he's allowed to, that is.

Just to help the Brazilian out, we need a left-back, a striker and a right winger. Any other signings are a bonus.
