Big Wispy Flossy

Moult cadden and McManus didn't deserve to be on the losing side today

This the weekly ainsworth scapegoating thread? It's difficult to blame anyone today after the effort they put in but if you are going to point the finger at our players for the 4 goals conceded then it should be McDonald hammell henaghan and Lasley in the firing line.

Sore yin - hard to be critical after what was a decent performance. Yeah we lost after been in a winning position a few times but they put absolutely everything in to it. If you play an intensive pressing game from the first minute it's always going to be difficult to last the 90mins

Elvis ken's the drill

Brings back painful memories of stevie woods not only gifting a goal to gordon durie when 2 up and crusing at fir park but then goes on to throw In a shot from Albertz within 3mins at the replay

Baws - unless of course we win

Put simply none of our players are anywhere the senior national side

Still too good a goalie to be playing for us for 3 years

Clanger for spurs equaliser

Richard tait

Tait is looking like a very capable full back and thought McMillan and ferguson both strolled the game. Heneghan toiled against big azeez to start with too. Clay and Lasley still give me the fear in the middle of the park but in the end a comfortable 3 points

Struggling to see how we will create any chances with that line up.

Hmm not so happy with that

I'm out

Gutted to miss that through illness today. Sounds like we played well and it's also good to hear that we dominated the middle of the park. I've been highly critical of late perhaps knee jerk in nature but credit where it's due

What's the alternative?

I've been defensive of McManus in the past, and still believe some of the criticism directed towards him is over the top, but, that was a performance on Wednesday so bad that it reminded me of the days when Kevin Christie was providing Saturday 'entertainment'

Like it or loath it - it's the only option on the table

Especially so since McFadden is unqualified and has virtually no coaching or training experience

Think Samson had empty packets of walkers over his hands

The point I'm trying to make is that you don't have any left footed players on the left side, then you play narrow on that side and with width on the right hand side where it's a more natural fit

Both Maclean and McMillan are right footed but McGhee inexplicably had both playing on the left touchline together for long spells in the second half

You are mental

Again hard to disagree with that. We can't legislate for injuries but we have control over player recruitment, and there's no doubt that's been a disaster

It's hard to disagree with that. However why then waste a wage on Lucas if he's no better than clay or Lasley. A replacement for Pearson should also have been a priority.
