We've seen that early kick play before and as much as it's to be applauded, without the 'bread and butter stuff' connecting, it'll just be a gimmick as before and another isolated get out of jail desperate play.

I see tony smiths copping some flack for short kick offs from the FC fans where we invested a lot to practice them and have since ditched them (Millars absence noted).

On Momirovski, obviously early days. He looks strong and defensively solid, but can't help thinking we will miss the running threat of Macdonald.
Not sure he has that.
He clearly has excellent pedigree, but so did Tetevano.
Hope he settles in and shows what he can do.
