    Looks like Accies are starting their relegation saving run...
  2. Aye, except even Craggs thought it should have been red.
  3. Aye, he sounds like a vicar commenting on a Sunday School football match.

    Mark McGhee

    I'm more pro than anti McGhee, but I think he is a little less foot-in-mouth these days. I find his arrogance to be quite entertaining at times as it's often in the form of subtle digs at clueless journos.
  5. No vote from me, as I wasn't at the game, but good to see Thomas put in a shift when he got his chance.
  6. Not pretty from United, but it's been working for them recently and sometimes you need to try and battle your way out from their position. Glad to see, like against Accies, we stood up to it well. Enjoyed the game tonight. Under the floodlights, greasy pitch with the ball zipping around, crunching tackles, open play and some quality in the second half. You wouldn't see a game like that on plastic in the summer (or the winter).
  7. Aye, every game we have lost this season has been 100% down to ex-players scoring. It's amazing we ever pick up a point.

    It could, but Ross County showed last season what a team on a run can do at the end of a campaign.
  9. Did we have any add-ons for Murphy getting a Scotland cap? (Although I suppose if we did, his recent move might have nullified that anyway).
  10. I'm not saying I agree with McManus' statements, just that I can see how it would play well with his team mates. As for next season, a big defender from his German contacts must surely be on the cards from McGhee.
  11. Sticking up for his team mates, you mean? I'm pretty sure they found that to be positive, even if the gaffer did not.
  12. Guys like McManus are a compromise between experience and talent. It can be frustrating when he switches off for a few minutes during games, especially when you see what he can bring when he is 100% focused. On the other hand, I doubt Ben Hall would have made the same progress if he didn't have the experience of McManus talking him through a game. Also, if McManus conducts himself as well in the changing room as he does in his press conferences, I can imagine that is a very positive influence on the guys around him.

    I'm not just talking about that game - although the should have tied up 2nd place before we nicked it from them. In previous seasons too, both Aberdeen and Dundee Utd fell away at the run in.

    They bottled it a few times when we ended up best of the rest.

    Proving once again that points on the board are more valuable than games in hand.

    Aye, whether they end up being safe or not, if we keep them behind us, it's a good thing.
  17. I think that headline should have read "How Roger Hynd is Changing the Game -For the Worse"
  18. I'd stick with the team that won the semi.
  19. Good to see from the highlights that we finished the game at the Accies' corner flag killing time. The players must read this site for coaching tips.
  20. I think it's the latter. I have been to NDP a few times and it's just a terrible place to watch football on a terrible plastic pitch.
  21. Tom Boyd played almost a sweeper type role in central defence before he moved to full back.

    I'm not convinced Hibs will get past Falkirk for the play-off final right now.
  23. No idea what the circumstances were, but under the law, typically the "defending yourself" test means running away unless you're backed up against a wall with no escape route. Whether that's fair or not is up for debate.
  24. Not that we have been in the same division that often in my years following 'Well, but our performances at both Old and New DP over the years have been pretty shocking at times. I have taken plenty of stick from my Accies supporting mates.
