  1. Really enjoyed that today! First time visiting home in ages and got to go to the game. Great team performance. I thought Spittal, McGinn and Butcher were standouts. The team shape now really benefits Goss....the guy is a baller! Furlong is raw and tired towards the end but he certainly grew into the game. Obika is huge help to Van Veen. You can see the confidence coming back and we knocked it about well at times. Onwards and upwards!
  2. I was at the game today.....disappointing. We started really well and it was a really nicely worked goal. After that we seemed to just sit off. Kilmarnock were winning all the 2nd balls and we could not track the midfield runners.....I can remember at 4 times in the 1st half where Cornelius was caught out by the same ball in the left channel. Midfield is where we really lack. No spark, no movement and we end up so deep inviting pressure and leaving our limited players (especially morris) up front with too much to do. Kelly's kicking was so aimless at times too. That being said there was some positives in McGinn, the goal and the fact we didn't chuck it. Expecting quite a bit of movement this week after that if there wasn't going to be already.
  3. A good 3pts. Not a great performance but Livi turn games into a shitfest and even the top two have had their fair struggles against them in recent years. We limited them to nothing and found a way to win despite our attacking limitations. An improvement if you ask me so on to the next one hopefully with a few additions on board.
  4. I agree about not giving a fuck today. Enjoy it.....it was the perfect tonic after recent times. Moving forward is the challenge. A reliable LB, finding our best CB pairing, more work on tactics/team shape and player confidence increasing will help with the soft goals I hope. A good start today overall but a long way to go.

  6. Brilliant! Even better when it is against that mob. I saw more in that performance than I have all year. Cut out the silly moments at back and more ruthless up front and it could have been a battering. Something to be positive about at long last
  7. Karma for Tait. Shouldn't have been on the pitch and got what he deserved making an arse of it! Should have had a penalty too. 2nd half nowhere near it. 1st half ok. Manager clearly looking for a spark but tonight's team selection wasn't it.
  8. Great 3pts in those conditions. Some good play despite not being clinical before the pitch turned into a pool. Tempo and press much better. Watt, Woolery and Mugabi were all excellent. Just clumsy from Maguire to put the team under pressure.
  9. Well done Scotland. Great performance. O'Donnell played really well. Considering we have 4 solid centre back options we should really be going for back 3, SODS/Carroll as wingbacks and Watt/VV up front. No brainer.
  10. If he is injured again and i've missed that then fair enough. If he is fit he should be in the squad and playing. One of our most effective players before his injury.
  11. The manager seems too stubborn to change unfortunately. It seems obvious to all of us that some version of 3-5-2 is worth a shot with the current squad and it surely can't be any worse than the shite served up the past wee while. The manager needs to be bold and the players need to step up big time. I would go for...... Kelly Mugabi Solholm Ojala Grimshaw Carroll Donnelly O'Hara Slattery Van Veen Watt
  12. All stems from another fucking pointless long ball out of defence by Mugabi and we get turned over. Amateur. Losing any optimism I had.
  13. Is it just me or is the current personnel crying out for 3-5-2? I feel it would work so much better with Watt and Van Veen as a two. We would certainly get more out of O'Donnell and Carroll who should be back in the team whipping balls into the box knowing they had a wee bit extra cover behind them. We have more than enough options to pick 3 solid CB's. I Don't understand the Kelly hate all of a sudden. The guy has pulled of a multitude of amazing saves to pull the team out a hole. Brainfart against Hearts aside there is not much he can do when he is left exposed. 3pts on Wednesday is a must.
  14. Great 3 points. Ross County were a tough opponent and will start picking up points before too long. Watt can do no wrong just now! Slattery goal was a cracker and he is slowly starting to show his quality. Midfield clearly still needs work. Donnelly has been building up slowly it seems after a long lay off but he brings much needed control and composure, won't be a shock to see him claim CDM role soon enough. Woolery needs to be more direct at times he can be a bigger threat. 7 games in and we are showing up to be a well coached team with good potential. Can't complain too much!
