    Come on, we dont need Hastie when we have quality like Cole/Ndjoli, Seedorf, McIver,Hylton & Ilic.  

    have you seen Hastie recently? He was honking for their u21s side. He got hunted from his loan down south. Apart from his initial purple patch, he seems to have gone backwards. Good pension mind you!

    The thing is, Robbo will just put this down to the missing players "were poor and have no money so we cant cope when you lose Long, Gallagher & Turnbull" completely ignoring the fact weve been fucking gash with them too (apart from Turnbull who wont play for us again) 

    Just wait for the predictable "dust ourselves down and we go again" bollocks post match

    to be fair to the manager he is usually pretty truthful and tends not to mince his words.

    Gave tonight a miss but the only surprise is the margin of St Mirrens lead. Our lofty position at the turn of the year was flattering in the extreme and a reflection of how poor the rest of the league was. After a really poor January window, there was potential for our season to go into freefall and so it’s proving. 

    we have had good results over the last year. Performances have been up and down granted, but I guess that's what you get with the type of players we have. The only other thing I would add is that  there is very little between most teams outwith the old firm. Every team eat anyone on their day it seems. Still does not excuse lack of effort mind you.

  4. perhaps contract discussions should have been delayed to the end of season, as it seems some of the players just aint giving a jot. The basics are not being done for some reason. You've got Donnelly jogging back when possession is lost, runners not being tracked etc etc   Cant believe we are lacking confidence, giving where we are in league, all be it we have lost a few.  Perhaps the cup bonus money is low.

  5. Sorry i dont agree that we have failed to recover after the accies game. I refer you to jowarks... post. We dont know the ins and outs of our recruitment in the last couple of windows, so i dont know how you know for sure mistakes were made. Every club is looking for a 20 goal striker. Theres not many about it seems. I could argue that given our position and 4th top goalscorers our recruitment has been a reasonable success.

    As for team selections and tactics , hindsight is a wonderful thing. Again  tho we have got it right most times this season, hence our 41 points. Yes there will be the odd hicup, thats what we do. Every manager gets it wrong at some point. Its the nature of the game, but in our current position i think its silly to say serious questions need to be asked. 

     

  6. Could be wrong, but we have only failed to score in 7 games out of 25. We are also the fourth top goalscorers in the league. So after a couple of defeats the sky has fallen in and we are rank rotten. Yes we could be better, but we also could be in hearts position. Lets just cut out the over the top reactions every time we dont win and chill.
