Marcus: Yet another two points dropped due to our inability to consistently put the ball in the back of the net. I am also not completely convinced on Jens Berthel Askou, I just do not think this preferred style is suited to scottish football and I still maintain the idea that someone like Jack Ross or Malky Mackay would have been better suited to achieve success in this league. I want to see my team try and score goals not just win the 'highest possession stats trophy'. This was a comment on the BBC - 😂😂😂 Malky Mackay 😂😂

Cant really argue with any of that. Totally get JBA wants his keeper to be an extra outfield option. It is a very important feature. I am maybe just being harsh on him due to his blunders at Tynecastle, parkhead and home to killie which cost us key points. At same time agree we need a striker. Been huge defender of Stama but our system doesn't really suit him

Livingston had no midweek game so they are well rested. Thankfully after Saturday’s back to a week between games till we play Celtic last game of the year. we should have enough players with enough energy to see us through this game. 🤞

If only we had a Danish connection at the club

He's too good, and the SFA asked us to stop making other midfielders look ordinary. The story I heard was minor injury, but no idea how accurate that is.

I noticed Mika is struggling a bit this season. Not sure if he has been injured or something, but only 2 goals in 19 games across all competitions.

3 consecutive clean sheets is a big stride forward. Will be interesting to see if JBA brings in a striker or two in the next window. The way we are playing will hopefully interest a few additional targets. I'm going for clean sheet number 4 for this game with a hard fought 2 - 0 win.

Five games in 14 days is a big ask of the teams fitness , with the type of game we play and the possession stats. Hopefully they have recharged the batteries and we keep the pace up against a stuffy Livingstone.

💯

Its a big ask and while we wont win the league, if we were able to get a striker who can convert chances & if we hold onto the manager, i honestly see no reason we cant be in the fight for 2nd. Typing that out just had me thinking how good Biereth could be in this team with his pace, game intelligence & eye for goal.

With Hibs playing Falkirk and Celtic v Hearts, 3 points from the Livi game would be a great boost. Perhaps Killie can even take some points off Rangers at Rigny park.

We still had about 64% possession last night and our goalie has had 1 save in the last three games with the TEAM keeping clean sheets 3 games In a row now. So maybe shot stopping goalie not our top priority at the moment?

Anyone know what is actually wrong with Watt? I note he wasnt even on the bench, so suggests more than just rotation / load protection.

Welsh, McGinn, sparrow , longello , fadinger all had good games . Welsh for me has filled a huge gap and not put a foot wrong in last few games

I said before last night's game if we took 8/9 points from our next 4 games this could very well be a standout season. Still stand by that. That's 15 games gone an no team has been better than us in any game. As poor as we were last night we were the closest of the two to getting the win.

I can but dream 🤣

Grizzlyg you are generally glass half full type and I get your concerns. However if for example. Oxborough who is good at crosses we would not have the same control in games as we would have a man less at back to keep the ball. Our game is all about creating an extra man somewhere and ward like all others in team are a part of that. Also he is organising defenders in front of him and very much part of us keeping clean sheets. On game last night I like most thought the subs for us slowed us down but I would argue the point that we were more in control of game than Falkirk. Still haven came away from a game this season thinking the other team were better than us. A centre forward required in January would be my choice.

You know you’re setting yourself up for disappointment here Mio . Albeit your optimism has plenty of base . A couple of key signings would make a massive difference and maybe just maybe

Ok a wee but tongue in cheek but really? Have we seen any standout teams in the league? We’ve had the better of Hearts twice but just lacked a cutting edge on Saturday and Rangers have no identity and are woeful. Celtic have improved under ONeill but I see this Nancy guy being a Russell Martin clone. last night was our poorest performance (in the league) yet we still came away with a point from an inform side, difficult to beat, on a terrible surface. I think we’ve had continual improvement all season and I think we should be aiming higher than just finishing top 6.

Welsh and McGinn again for me. Picked McGinn on Saturday and Welsh tonight. both at the top of their game at the moment.

I agree his distribution has been better since his clanger at parkhead. I am old fashioned and want my goalie saving shots and collecting crosses. Defence in front of him definitely helped last few weeks

Tom Sparrow

Lots of really good points here . Slattery not been playing well, he may benefit from being on the bench for a couple of weeks. We have enough depth to replace and personally I like RCC he gives more width and supports longello nicely . Welsh for me is captain material and if we can we should spend a few quid and bring him perm . upfront is an issue , AP and Hendry are not great as lone strikers . If we can get Sule back and fit he looked to have strength to be they player but we need something diferent and can see Stupavic or Robinson solving either

Good point not a lot of teams shall keep a clean sheet and take something away against Falkirk this season. Slatterys mind looks elsewhere at the minute he has been so off the boil last couple of games been so so poor.Slows down the play alot and his passing recently has been shocking all over the place. I do think in January we need something different up front in the middle still lacking that difference between a point and three points kinda player that can nick a chance. I hope we can hold onto Welsh if not have a near enough exact replacement he has been top drawer compliments McGinn perfectly. Anyway onwards to Livi and a few more layers of clothing it was Baltic last night lol.
