With the season less than a month away, is the outcome of this game any cause for concern? I was upbeat after the defeat to Rangers because they were so far ahead in terms of preparation than us and are one of 2 best teams in Scotland by far. But after all the early predictions in this game pointed to a win for us (some even suggesting a comfortable win) is losing to a team in a division below us something we should be worried about?

exactly. I'm not worried by today but I am a little confused as to why we look so off the pace compared to the performance against Rangers who were 1 week away from starting their season.

Good sign for the future that he can make those runs.

I understand being positive as I'm usually overly positive myself... Today is a concern surely as we are miles away.

Love that Godden didn't bollock Bapaga for not passing, but encouraged him instead.

Bagpa should have scored, but he has looked decent.

Compare him to Baka and he has played better already. Need to strengthen up front badly.

We look off it every pre-season. This season we had a 150 day break between matches. Calm down, and let our manager who has 2 promotions in 3 seasons sort it out. We will be ready I have no doubt.

a lot of work to do in a short space of time. I worried about this preseason preparations so far. we’re in the championship this season. Massive gap between league 1 and that league. that’s my worry

No your worry is trying to find videos of non white breaking social distancing while ignoring white people who do it.

Don't we have this hand wringing every season? We never pull up any trees pre-season.

Bit surprised we're not a bit further on in terms of fitness, but not worried at all.

I've said a few times that they've had 2 games in the last couple of weeks. We've just had a week off. Think that's more the reason than when we started.

To be fair, we played better 12 days into pre season against Rangers that were 5 weeks ahead of us and starting their season the following week.

We've looked more dangerous since the kids have been on to be fair.
