    If results stay same then Ross co and st Johnstone need to win 3 of last 4 to overtake us and us to get no points at all. They also have still to play each other.   We will be fine

    Yeah that’s what I meant saying that County losing is good for us. I don’t think we’ll be relegated and I didn’t think we’d be relegated before today, but had County gained any more ground on us after another poor result and performance for us then it would have made things twitchy.

    I'd like to think we've got one win left in us 

    You would certainly hope that we could beat Livingston at home at least. Though the rest of the potential fixtures, away to Hibs and Ross County eg. then you would be thinking that a draw in both games is the most likely outcome.

    This performance is worse than last week

    No doubt the state of the pitch will be put forward as an excuse but there’s no getting away from the fact that this is dismal stuff. We’re not out of relegation danger by any means.

    He's still a Hearts player so we can pull the deal. You can't have a guy like that in the team, he's in the Butcher/Obika zone. 

    Of course we can. The deal was that he was on loan here until the end of the season with the option of us signing him permanently from the summer onwards. We don’t have to take that option up and if he’s not fit enough then you’d certainly like to hope that we wouldn’t. I suspect he will retire from playing once this season is over anyway so it won’t be an issue.

    After Patterson’s performance last night, SOD should cancel any summer holidays and prepare for a recall. The ex-R##### made more errors in each half of the game than SOD made in total in all his appearances. But haven’t heard mention of it anywhere.

    Have you actually seen SO’D play for the past three years? If that’s who Scotland turn to to solve their right back issues then God help them. :lol:

    And I love how you refer to Patterson as “The ex Ranger” rather than “the Everton player” which he has been for well over two years now. Is that all you see him as? There must be some amount of mental gymnastics involved in supporting Scotland for those who just can’t see past their hatred of Rangers.

    His first task should be to boot Bob Park into the sun. 

    I disagree, his first act as CEO should be collating the head of social media and getting them to remove that dreadful patronising nonsense “we exist to improve people’s lives” from all platforms. 
     

    That’s what I would do anyway.

    It wasn't a friendly and I doubt it was meaningless to Lennon Miller. If the players don't want to play international football, they can simply choose not to go, but I suspect it means more to them than it does to you.

    And what possible difference is Scotland  getting pumped going to make?

     

     

    You’re right it wasn’t a friendly, so I stand corrected on that one.

    But for me International football is pointless and it is especially pointless not to mention completely disruptive when it forces the real football to stop for an entire week or so during the season. Why can’t they just play these games in May/June in years where there is no World Cup or Euros? 
     

    And Scotland getting pumped by Holland isn’t going to make many difference to anything, but I will still have a chuckle about it.

    I am hearing that Lennon's injury is serious and he may be out for the rest of the season. 

    Of course it’ll be a season ended. Our players just can’t pick up wee niggles that keep them out for one or two games. :wallbash:

     

  9. Get international football in the fucking bin! It’s bad enough we can’t seem to go a few weeks without key players picking up injuries when they’re with us but when it’s playing a meaningless friendly for the National team then it just rubs salt in the wound.

    I hope Holland pump Scotland tomorrow night as a GIRUY to the SFA.

    I don't think we did deserve to lose , we were abysmal but Aberdeen were worse. Our age old failing , teams only need one shot at goal to beat us. All game we boot the ball long then with two mins left of normal time, we decide to play possession football and don't put a single ball into the Aberdeen area.

    We need a serious clear out if we manage to stay up, this lot will always put us in bother

    I take your point but if a side is only needing one shot at goal to beat us and we can’t get back in the game with over half of a football match still to play, at home, then I’d say that we deserve to lose. It’s fine margins in this league and games like today’s more often than not come down to which side can take chances at one end and keep goals out at the other.

    I can't agree with that. We weren't good enough to win, but we certainly didn't deserve to lose. Far too passive in the game in the first half, better in the second, but no real goal-scoring forwards is a problem. We don't have anyone that can convert half chances. A draw would probably have been the right result.

    The VAR decision was in the 43rd minute. As harsh as it looked we were already behind at that stage and deservedly so. We then had an entire half of football to get back level but we never looked like we would score. 
     

    “We don’t have anyone that can convert half chances”. 
     

    You’re right there. And that is why we lost today and deserved to lose, because if you can’t score goals then you don’t win football matches.

    Var didn't lose us that game today. It didn't help but neither did players who are slow of thought and movement , can't pass a ball to a teammate, can't tackle properly  , not to mention a poor team selection and tactics and substitutions. We could still be playing and still won't have scored a goal.

    No arguments there, we deserved to lose. 
     

    VAR is a separate issue, and as I said is ruining football matches.

    If i messed up at my job as hard as the officials at Fir park did today i would be suspended or even sacked, So why do these clowns get to keep pulling this shit week in week out ? If what happend today happend to Celtic or Rangers there would maybe be an investigation but because we are small time nothing will happen. They will be out next week making a horses arse of some other game. Not much to play for now but saying that if we keep playing like we did today we might find ourselves in the play off spot 💁‍♀️

    It’s the inconsistencies with VAR and refereeing decisions that is most frustrating. What you see pulled back one week is let go the next. It’s just scunnering.

    That said we were awful today. Flat, ineffective, weak in midfield and conceded a poor goal. Just so depressingly predictable.
