Rat-hole this. This is your runnin' money.

I hope this result kick starts our season.

I give credit to Dow for putting the pressure on us. The last 20 minutes, we just forced everything instead of taking our time.

The attitude was great today. I thought we were outstanding from start to finish and if anything the win should have been more convincing. Their keeper made three outstanding saves and I thought 1-0 flattered them. But that’s the sort of performance and the kind of mentality I’m looking for and if we can play like that next season, we should be OK.

Colin comes in to solve a goalkeeping problem as Neil Bennett has decided to go back south. My assistant, Jimmy Bone, knows Colin well from his time working with him at County last season. I have admired Mark for some time. He is a good player and has pace.

We were very close, a lot of years. We worked our way through a lot of problems, and we could've worked our way through this one. We could've made a comeback.

[Jukka Santala grabbed a brace to earn Partick Thistle a 2-2 draw after Ayr United had twice gone ahead through Jerome Vareille and Paul Hyslop.] We were by far the best side, ... But Ayr were frustrating to play against.

We never really got any good shots on goal. We never took them. We played reasonably well ... but it wasn't one of our better games.

Its growing and improving and getting better every year, ... I think it's the best place there is.
