  1. only 80% is shocking, the teams slacking and need a kick up the arse - we had 93% the other week! On a serious note another point and another clean sheet away from home ain’t that bad.
  2. Luckily most of our game is played on the ground although I agree that the swirling wind will cause problems and mistakes as passes go astray
  3. The header being a sitter is a load of nonsense and the first goal was made by his willingness to go for the ball, get in front of the defender and flick it out to the runner. Might not score as much as we - and him - would like but he does contribute.
  4. Know exactly what you mean but I’m starting to worry that we’re starting to expect top class entertainment and might run the risk that some over the top fans start feeling entitled and those are the ones who will be first to start abusing players they feel aren’t doing their bit when it’s still 0-0 after 60 minutes (so probably sooner).
  5. Hardly a clanger, he was under pressure with a Celtic player closing him down, didn’t have time to control the ball and tried the short pass rather that a punt. As has been said before it’s the type of pass that is made and messed up by other players throughout a game but since it seldom leads to a goal is forgotten about and if it had came off would have taken five Celtic players out of the game - risk and reward. Trying to punt it could have led to it being charged down by the Celtic player rushing in on him leading to a goal anyway as is seen sometimes in games. So in short, yes it was a poor and unfortunate pass and percentage wise probably the wrong choice but in my view not a clanger.
  6. Maybe having a couple of days back home with his family? edit: awe god just got ur “joke”
  7. I’d accept 8 from the remaining games but 9,10 or 12 isn’t unthinkable which is phenomenal to be able to even think about that happening.
  8. That idiot should have been looking at this game and seeing the difference between Hanley and Welsh, should have been thinking I’d maybe be best to give Welsh a game in the next friendly to see how he fits in. Unfortunately he’ll stick with Hanley.
  9. Though I can see and agree with your point, the offside part of VAR is the only part that the guys in the VAR control room can’t easily fuck up - although they have managed it at times - any attempt to change it would be a disaster.
  10. It would be crazy to train the youths to play a different style from the seniors as it would make integrating them into the seniors difficult.
  11. Up until tonight I never thought I’d be picking him but Priestman for me.
  12. I think the increase is not only due to our form and style of football but also the fact that instead of 200 county fans we got 1000 Falkirk fans. No matter what an extra 1000 on the home games is great and that probably works out at an extra £10k a week in revenue.
  13. Considering that it normally takes a player 6 months at least to settle at a new club I don’t see too much of a problem. Yes he could have had more game time but he’s a young man so maybe the adjustment will take longer.
  14. Calling the pitch a little bit different must translate into Danish as shite.
  15. It’s a strange one, the guys good at going forward - getting an assist today - but defensively he’s suspect as was shown at the start of the second half where I thought Killie targeted down that side and were having a bit of success, hence the reason for subbing him.
  16. No one really stood out but went for Said, very entertaining and frustrating player but mom today.
  17. Ladies and gentlemen we have a winner.
  18. Nae chance, over the last 4 or 5 seasons we’ve been pissed on by the current referees for whatever reason.
  19. The seven games to Christmas before back to back games against the arse cheek’s are Killie (A) Hibs (H) Hearts (H) Falkirk (A) Livingston (H) Dun Utd (A) Dundee (H) I’d like to think we can get 12 to 15 points from those fixtures but given that we’ve only managed 15 points in the first 11 games, am I being over optimistic?
  20. It’s the only conclusion we can reach after talking to the player then ignoring his push a minute later. Aberdeen manager would be mad to keep him on
  21. At our game on Saturday he was standing warming up when they scored their first goal and he stood and remonstrated with the linesman saying what looked like the ball was moving at the free kick, thought he was going to be booked because he wouldn’t let it go despite the linesman gesturing to him to move away. Might be a h*n but he was as pissed off as any of us.
  22. You got inside info on the semi final result?
  23. Agree that he’s top class but he needs to be more aware of his options, at one point he beat 3 of their players, Stam started a run only for Said to double back to try and beat the united players again, a through ball was the better option. It’s the one thing I find infuriating about him.
  24. I heard from a guy well connected at Hearts that at the start of the season he was offered to us - unsure if it was a loan or permanent move for cash - but we knocked it back. I’m 100% sure this is true and 90% sure it was a permanent move. Maybe someone else has heard similar.
  25. Ah the unbookable Callum McGregor.
