The Gers have picked up nine points from their first six games.

Rangers striker Martyn Waghorn has told the club’s official website that they are still learning about the Scottish Premiership.
The Gers were promoted to the Scottish top flight last season as they won the Championship in Mark Warburton’s first year in charge.
It has proved to be something of a tough return to the top for them, though, with just two wins from their first six games.
In their other games they have drawn three and lost one, the latter being the heavy 5-1 defeat at the hands of rivals Celtic.

To say their start has been disappointing would be an understatement, especially with talk of them challenging for the title in the summer.
But Waghorn says there are differences they are still learning about, naming three of them.
“We are still learning about the Scottish premiership, it is the first time the club has been back here for four years and it is a completely different structure,” he told the club’s official website.
“It is a higher level than last year, the teams are bit more organised and I think the fitness for the 90 minutes is more of a challenge than we experienced last season.”
Rangers’ Joey Barton looks dejected
Rangers fans will now be hoping that their team can adapt to the top flight sooner rather than later and start to pick up points.
That are four points behind Celtic at the top of the table, although that gap could increase to seven points should Brendan Rodgers side win their game in hand.
That gap will be a big one to make up even at this early stage and they will have to find their form quickly to ensure it doesn’t get even bigger.
