Nothing wrong with a draw away from home on a shite pitch in shite weather. The onus is on the home team to win.

 

We don't deserve anything and have no right not to be in this position.

 

All that said we have been devoid of luck this last wee while. Yes - you make your own luck. But iffy penalties and last minute deflections...

 

Even when we save penalties - they are re-taken...

 

Next 3 games are critical. My worry is the players feel they are jinxed and the run of losses sucks any belief they had.

It is starting to feel a little bit like last season when nothing seemed to go our way. Late penalties, deflected goals and bad refereeing decisions have hurt us over the last few games. However, we need to pick ourself up for the next league game against Killie, as that really is a massive game.

We lose too many goals. We dont score enough goals. Limited creativity. No influence or gamechangers coning off the bench. We cant beat the teams about us. Is luck and/or refereeing decisions really our problem?

Neither team really deserved 3 points but Partick managed something we didn't - shots on goal. Cerny didn't have a save to make.

 

Two points.

 

1 Moult has been poor recently. McDonald ran himself into the ground tonight but he had nothing to play off. Moult badly needs a goal to get his confidence and form back up.

 

2 Pearson just didn't have the engine on him tonight to make runs from midfield. That reduces our goal threat significantly.

 

With these two factors we ate going to struggle to score.

Think it was lionel not tracking his man...

 

Mcdonald was the only player to get pass marks for me tonight covered every blade, showed for every ball and generally ran himself ragged. Everyone else mediocre at best.

 

Hall going off injured not good either.

Has Ainsworth contributed anything at all to the cause this season? I'm struggling to think of anything. No goals, any assists? You certainly don't get a shift out of him.

 

Total empty jersey.

 

He's the biggest culprit but we have many passengers and many players who are past it, not up to it or simply aren't interested.

I wish people would just chill the fuck out!!!

 

Yes, we're on a poor run and yes if we want to avoid relegation or at the very least the play offs, then yes, results have to improve. But if you listen to both managers post match interviews, they both thought a draw was a fair result in poor conditions which did not allow for any type of decent football.

 

Short of a bad referee call and a deflected shot by the obligatory ex player, we would've been 7th and looking to go 9 points clear of killie and 11th place in our next league game.

 

Sometimes that's how shit rolls and we're at the bottom of the hill!!

 

Our luck will change and we will not be relegated. And if folk take themselves off their self imposed suicide watch, we've got a cup run to put together and the squad will need some positive backing to do that !!!

In the interests of fairness and balance according to espn ainsworth has our most assists. That probably tells you more about his teammates than him as he's barely played this season

Main problem in substitutions was that Pearson should not have been on the park at the end. Fine take off Moult before he got booked or worse but leavingbPearsin on cost us. He made umpteen mistakes in 1st half and it was his piss poor clearance under no pressure whatsoever that got pushed out to the right for Lawless shot. If Cadden had panicked and halve hoofed the ball pathetically like that people would say he was too inexperienced/ lack of composure etc. Pearson rotten and bad decision by manager to leave him on.

Ainsworth is a weapon, and in my opinion, not getting deployed at the right time.

Im sure the Morton-tiff with Robinson is part to blame.

Is Lasley getting slated for his penalty giveaway to Hamilton or failing to track McGowan at the weekend?

Moult / McDonald / Johnson any blame for passing up umpteen sitters in recent weeks?

Fucking sickener to tonight. McGhee made a huge mistake is putting Johnson up top, then failed to attempt to rectify it. My fear is such a defeat could be a real confidence killer, the players looked utterly deflated and defeated at full time.

 

The only positive was Gomis' cameo. He looks like a shrewd signing.

It's never his fault, is it.?

Another McGhee masterstoke put Johnson up front with skippy and the when we are trying to see out the game bring on Lionel.......just like the Accies game poor substitutions have cost us points

 

Stevie Hammell had an absolute nightmare along with Pearson
