By your measure then, statisticians should go back and classify a player's career goals as first or second class depending on who they were against. George Best has his 6 against Northampton immediately downgraded. Houchen scored goals against Wednesday, Man Utd and Spurs in that run. Why were...

I just can't agree with that. I can understand this point of few (to an extent) in Checkatrade games against U23 teams, but not in FA Cup matches. Those games really count. To say that we won't count his goal against Blues, even though they are higher league, is very harsh, particularly when...

I agree O'Hare had a far bigger impact on yesterday's game than Max. But it's not a competition in that way. Until the second goal there was still that uneasy feeling that one slip from us and all the good work could be undone. Biamou sealed the win. There are games, Peterborough away, Ipswich...

Why? The other goals count. Should the goals of Regis, Houchen and Bennett not count from the cup run in 1987?

His overall record is not better though, I don't think it is fair to pick and choose your stats in that way. Also it took Biamou a long time to get off the mark when he first arrived. I don't agree with barracking any player and Bakayoko certainly doesn't deserve to be treated like that...

You must sit in a very sheltered or positive part of St Andrews then. It drives me up the wall the way some people constantly moan, Baka being a frequent target.

You never heard some of the stick our players get at games? Particularly Bakayoko.

Also why don’t Cup goals count?

The only people who would hate Bakayoko are the same type who would have it in for Biamou. Both try their best, both have something to offer and while they are in the team why wouldn’t you support them?

This is similar to what Oggy was saying after the game.

League Two was his ceiling until recently. He scored against a Championship club the other week. I like Max. I think he is an okay player at this level. He isn’t our best ever free signing I don’t think. I don’t think we would have got promotion last season even if he was fit. However, I don’t...

I don’t think you were his greatest fan this season either.

I have been to Southend once before when we got trounced 3-0 in the Mowbray season. We parked close to the ground on a side street. There was lots of residential parking around the ground as far as I can remember so luck of the draw really as to how close you can get. The ground itself is an old...

PR is surely a much fairer way of electing a government. How can it be right that with only 43.6% of those who voted, voting for them, the Conservatives end up with an 80 seat majority? 56.4% of those who voted didn’t want them. Where I live a Tory has been elected for at least the last three...

No, I agree.Any win will do for me.

That’s exactly it. The Telegraph and CWR have the ability to raise this, clarify the situation and challenge Wasps but they don’t. The Telegraph’s position I understand more than CWR. You would think that Wasps are a valuable advertiser and they fill a lot of column inches with Wasps news...

I don’t think we underrated them. We battered them to a 1-0 defeat.

I think that that was their first trophy win for generations. Reminds me of our cup win. That little bit of success means a lot more to fans like us and those of Hibs than it does to clubs with loads of plastic fans like Man Utd.

If you have never watched it, watch the Hibs fans singing Sunshine On Leith after they beat Rangers to win the Scottish Cup. It's fantastic. When I got my son to watch it he said "that's why people go to football'

That was written and recorded by a guy called Alan Randle, a George Formby impersonator, from Nuneaton.
