Part of the failure was not finding a clear leader on the field who can take them by the scruff of the neck and get something going. He may never have won the EPL but I'm thinking of Gerrard and how he could rise up and take charge by his own example. We need a manager who can find and develop such a player. Las was sometimes able but never quite did it.
-
Surely we need to hear from more than the manager at this stage? We were deluded by getting those 6 covid points, but now we're faced with reality of having to earn them back. I don't think this organisation even cares what supporters think anymore and I suspect, had there been no empty grounds, a lot of supporters would have walked. This was once a club that could play against anyone.
-
So going in at HT at Ibrox up 1-0, I think we should be awarded 1.5 points. Just sayin'!
-
I think we need to look at a broader view. Teams by this time in a season would have sorted themselves out from early season issues and should have improved by this point. Clearly we haven't got anything sorted out at all, and if the appeal against the 6 points is upheld not only will we lose them, we'd have a GD difference as well, we'll be in serious trouble. I'm not impressed counting our current position without having earned the points and I hope it's not seen as how well we've done.

I just wonder if anybody in the front office is remotely concerned about the extended recent performance.
-
There is only one statistic that matters and that's the score, regardless of what the BBC shows. teams with 75% and 20 shots often lose, so just put the ball in the net!!!

I wasn't able to tune in yesterday so missed the play by play. BUT this is quite a simple game really. The manager and many on here are going on about the chalked off goal and how that might have changed the game. Surely it's simply that neither the players nor the manager understood that that was just how that incident played out and we just had to keep WORKING away rather than being downhearted. Even if that goal had been allowed Hibs still scored three without reply. It seems we didn't dig down deeper than they did, so we need not keep on about the referee, even if he got that one decision absolutely wrong. The two keys for any team are motivation (the manager's job) and commitment (the players job), and clearly neither showed up yesterday.

Here we're not even into December and the rest of us are competing for no higher than 5th place.

Where is the stream coming from?
-
Relax GazzyB, just a little tongue in cheek from me as I concentrate on the Arsenal Liverpool game.
-
...and there you have it, we're the strongest team in the league!!!
-
Unless something changes dramatically in the next few minutes we'll go into tomorrow's game in last place. Chances are that Celtic will be ready to kill after this past week's disaster, and Turnbull is away. We've got some new money, but do we have any clue how to get out of last place? Still we did finish 3rd last year, and let's not forget 2 cup finals!!!
-
I just read the manager's comments, unbelievable "I've done everything, it's down to the players!". It's probably safe to say he's now lost the dressingroom.
-
Stop going back to finishing 3rd last year, that was because of a good start. The last part of last season and the beginning of this have been terrible, and most managers with that record would have been fired. When you put the transfer season on top of that it just has to be down to the board and it's lack of vision and expectations. I can imagine if this was a normal season, that our crowds would be well down. When Turnbull is away we're in deep trouble.

I'm afraid decent football can't take the place of actually scoring. Accies are doing what they can in defence, but I'm not sure we have a plan to counteract that style. It's pretty basic and that will have us competing with Accies once a few more teams have done that to us. No imagination.

9/2. Nex week's training should be simply shooting at that space inside the woodwork! I'm only half kidding.

Reid, Hunter, St. John, Quinn, Weir.

Just tuned in for the first time, it seems that most of you are not very happy!!!
Just another Saturday rant, but I'm surprised someone hasn't called for the manager's head already. Enjoy the season one and all.
-
Well, or not well! It really looks like this team is just not comfortable in the top three since we're now unable to string a decent score in recent games, and we sure can't get any points from the OF. So just wonder where they've set their level of a successful season at. Clearly all the others are aiming for third, but I get the impression we get nosebleeds thinking about that.
-
Very good season with relegation off the table before Christmas. I'm not sure how we can cope with that! Merry Christmas to all of you!!!!!!!!!!!
-
I worried if we could hold them off with only a one goal lead, but this team is tougher than we've had for a while, so a good week, and when did we last have this point level at the start of December?
-
Take the points and run. Just watched the Liverpool/Arsenal goalfest, we should get some of those youngsters on loan! Still, Mon the Well!!!
-
I watched the game in a Rangers supporter's home and we were both surprised: him with how ineffective they were and me with how we stuck in there and frustrated them. I thought we would absolutely wilt in the second half, but the lads dug deep and hung on fairly well.
There should never be a close game the way the OF have been able to get better players, so third is as far as we can really go, but this team seem to have more backbone so I think they might just do it.
-
As long as the model is to find young players and then sell them on we'll never have ongoing success like the top teams have, and that impacts on attendance as well as budget. We'll never get the kind of money Celtic seem to get from transfers. It will always be season to season, and any comparison to Sir Alex at Man U makes no sense at all. Enjoy what we've had this season while we have it because we're all striving for 3rd place now that the OF are back.

I wasn't able to listen today, but I didn't think it would be 3-0.
I do not believe our develop and sell model will ever lead to a consistently winning team, and today we can reap the rewards.
I think we deluded ourselves that we were 3rd last year. If play had not been shut down with covid Aberdeen would have finished 3rd, and Hearts would not have been relegated.
We've retired the debt, great, but we're bankrupt in a football sense. We've got a fair price for players, Turnbull, but the fees have just not been put back into the football side of the business, and I really wonder how many supporters will pay to watch the quality that's bee delivered this season.
