Has 50 points ever been way too little for safety? Sure, it's gone a bit over in the past, but generally that's a good mark to aim for.

It'll be a travesty if he doesn't win it regardless of the next result. All time club record broken, 4 wins on the trot for the first time in 8 years. Great stuff.

We're looking like a top 3 team right now I'd say. Confidence is higher than it's been for years, we've still not lost yet and have managed to achieve the notorious three wins on the bounce. Too early to say we'll be able to stick it out as we need to see how we handle our first defeat if and...

I haven't checked the league's top scorers for a few weeks - I assume Dan Holman has hit triple figures already by now?

Oops. I used to live in Manchester so I'm letting myself off. Strangely when you say United in Manchester, Carlisle isn't the first thing that comes to most peoples' minds.

United's attack is only 90 because it's an average of the default starting XI in the game, and I think they've got Ibrahimovic as a lone striker.

8th isn't too bad at this stage IMO. We've had a lot of signings, plenty of whom were signed as starters, and are getting results despite rarely playing well for a full 90 minutes. If we can continue scoring goals whilst shoring up the defence a bit then I think we'll be in very good shape going...

Fucking hell, this is rough

I wouldn't be opposed to us signing him either, but I don't see it as the type of thing Curle would do

I'm thinking Asamoah is probably more of a favour to help him find a new club, would be very surprised to see him back here

When do we think about giving Kennedy, Penn or McKee a go? We're not doing badly at the moment but we could certainly be doing a lot better. Kennedy has already got a couple of goals this season coming on as a sub hasn't he, so maybe see how he does with Jones from the start?

I'm not sure what the Raynes rumour was about or who started it. He's said he never wanted to go, Curle never wanted him to go and there were no official bids for him. He certainly isn't worth £100k to anyone else but, given how late in the window it was, I wouldn't have been too pleased if he'd...

They Accies players were simply in awe of his raw talent. Once he came on they tried to play every pass to him but Hearts had 9 men surrounding him with the other left to score goals. Will he ever be able to live up to his true potential?

Blackpool is a big one now, win and we'll be right back on track but you can sense some fans are starting to get frustrated and a loss would tip them over the edge.

If we can remain in and around the top 7 through the next month then we've got a much easier run from the end of October until the end of December. Only 4 points off the top still and we remain unbeaten. Hopefully JP asks about Reid at some point in this interview.
