So I finally got round to watching highlights on youtube. Tried 4 different clips and none of them show the Gogic/rolling ball bit. Was it captured on cam? -
-
Given my reservations that he was way down a pecking order that had Liam Scales on top… I’d be going all out to tie up Stephen Welsh for the long term.
-
Quite right! I’m not going either.
-
Totally outplayed them as well.
-
Plastic pitch. Sticking to my guns and not going to watch a game on these abomination.
-
There are certainly people in the media (and ex-players) who would be delighted if we fail. Can't have the "wee" teams trying anything progressive when they should be staying in their lane and sticking to the well worn traditional approach. 3 games against Aberdeen with 2 wins and draw in a decent return. I think it's obvious we could do with another central defender and another striking option, but I'm sure JBA sees that too. If we can keep picking up points in the run up to the next transfer window, a couple of astute signings could see our top 6 aspirations improve.
-
Thankfully we've already proven we can win on plastic this season. Kilmarnock are really quite poor but you are correct this will not be an easy game , our record over the last few years down there is not great. Might be wrong but think we've only won once down there in 6 years.
-
Poor Mirrens luck deserted them I see and its toys out the pram. Pure shame, not!
-
A point away from home is never bad. We are still work in progress and you can see the direction we are heading. It shows how far we have come in a short period of time, when some are unhappy with a draw against a city team and are critical of certain players. Lets just ignore the outside noise of the media and the dinosaurs of scottish football who say we cant and should not play the way we have been and enjoy the football we are playing and back all the guys on the park.
-
we are doing fine. We just need to concentrate on one game at a time and see where it gets us. Killie on that awful pitch is going to be hard.
-
If we maintain our current level of points per game we'd be on 45 points at the split that's a baw hair away from the points needed to be to 6. That would be a terrific outcome considering the huge transformational changes the club and the manager are trying to achieve.
-
Generally around 45/50 and our current return in points if maintained wouldn't have us far away from that
-
If we move from the 4-2-3-1 to a 4-4-2, the Watt and Fadinger double pivot goes, the wide attackers go, and we’re basically into a midfield diamond. That means one of the current midfield five has to be dropped to fit a second striker. Who’s that? I just don’t see it. More likely Hendry gets a run leading the line, as he’s stronger than Stama and looks better suited to playing up top on his own.
-
How would the team change with two up front?
-
11 points seems realistic.
-
Id like to see both AP and Hendry up front together - be interesting to see how it changes our approach current issue is unless we’re on the counter we’re quite easy to defend against , AP was up against 3 central defenders yesterday . As poor as he was that’s a tough gig . I do think we need to mix it up a bit
- Yesterday
-
I think 10 pts is decent. 12 is achievable. 15 would be a phenomenal return and take us very close to safety.
-
I think our biggest (only real) mistake in the league so far was getting beat at home by Falkirk. Yes, we threw away points in a few games but probably we should have been looking to take 3 points from them at Fir Park.
-
He’s an expensive flop courtesy of Kettlewell.
-
3 wins - 3 draws and 1 defeat i still see us in the top 6 come new year
-
Nae chance, over the last 4 or 5 seasons we’ve been pissed on by the current referees for whatever reason.
-
We're not the getting the rub of the green at all from referees just now. Week in, week out these decisions are going against us. By contrast, Falkirk are getting all these decisions in their favour. Hopefully things will even themselves out in time.
