  1. Was at Alloa v Edinb City last week, occasionally go to their games over the years, was very poor, if we don't comfortably win this words will fail me.
  2. Now that sums up the issue with aspects of our recruitment, if he didn't fit our style why did we buy him? Agree with you, that is what he is.
  3. Couldn't agree more. I felt Gent also could have stopped Yohan at the start of his mazy run for first goal and saw Kelly having a pop at him. He definitely needs to improve defensively but thats a trade off against what he brings offensively and the improvements in our results since he's been starting games. I remember Hammel's debut at Pittodrie when he was culpable for opening goal, it happens, its how you recover and learn. Hopefully the young man does just that, but really surprised and disappointed at SK publically singling him out especially when more experienced defenders making mistakes aren't
  4. Lucky you, tried to get a ticket now, says sold out. Created Hibs account etc, notice they are not selling tickets to home fans behind that goal, doubt we have sold out the whole end🤣 Scottish fitba eh! making it difficult to spend money and get to a game! UPDATE: Now got one, tried the link earlier today, still saying sold out, just tried again now and tickets now available
  5. Trouble is once you have a succesful set up (as in fairness we had), the opposition look for ways to nullify so you need a Plan B, and SK hasn't been able to find one
  6. Being old enough to remember Roger Hynd starting his tenure with 5 straight wins before it all went pear shaped, and of course SH picking up early wins, I well understand why we should be wary of appointing someone just on 2 results. But we need to look beyond that. How did he get the results from a demoralised bunch, and new players?, How did he approach the games tactically?, how was his ingame management?, how is his man management?, how well does he communicate? How much of a 'leader' is he?, how well does he know our opposition? Winning 2 games is no guarantee of future success, but he ticks all the boxes on the above questions. I would not hold Ross Co sacking against him, if he demonstrates what he learned from it and is ready to go again. Resiliance is a great thing to have, and tbf the other 'candidates' have more than one sacking, and right now are more of a risk. And if not him then who???
  7. Lee Bullen not been mentioned anywhere, doing a great job at Ayr on tight budget and a legend as a player and captain at Sheff Wed, interim mgr 3 times with 50% win rate at difficult periods. Well travelled in early part if his career, wiki page really interesting. No shrinking violet in dressing room I'll bet
  8. I was a gk, only played at amateur level, but for a gk more than any other position confidence in yourself and your defenders is essential. So much of goalkeeping is split second decision making and reflexes. When your confidence is low and your mind is not clear you start overthinking and second guessing leading to the sort of mistakes that Liam is now making. I've never understood making a gk captain for that reason. I wouldn't drop him, but I would move the captaincy to an outfield player, only one game I know but Butcher looked capable of that role
  9. Jack Ross performed a miracle in keeping St Mirren in Championship, (they were miles adrift when he took over), preventing back to back relegations, before bringing them back up. Dundee Utd was a strange one though, but I wouldn't dismiss him
  10. Last time the club took a stand re away tickets (Rangers play off game), we were backed by the biggest and noisiest home support I can remember and I sincerely hope this welcome move does encourage a bigger home support at these games. As for the regretable decisions made in the past re Cooper Stand for auld squirm, that was under different management to what we have now, and shouldn't be held against the club anymore Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
  11. We have the 3rd highest SPL points tally in 2019, 6 points less than Sevco and zillions less than Celtic, but better than all the rest, including Killie. But thats not good enough for some apparently Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
  12. Glad we won't all adopt that attitude....can't get my head round that reasoning. Many reasons why folks might not renew a season ticket but thats a corker. Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
  13. Credit to the manager for subs. I thought we lost the plot a bit immediately after the sending off, but subs changed it, Main held it up better and McHugh was terrific always showing, never wasted a pass, got us a foothold back in the game. Great entertainment. Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
  14. ATS scores for Crewe in a 3-1 defeat, Theo Robinson scores for Swindon in a 3-1 win Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
  15. It was indeed, if I remember correctly we were 1 up through Kirk and cruising, we missed a sitter for 2-0, then Utd scored 2 late goals I think through Brewster with Dykstra at fault for at least 1 of them. Game was originally scheduled for 9/4 but played midweek 3/5. Crowd was only 5200 when we had a genuine chance of winning league. Winning that game and EITHER Raith away or St J home would have won us the league...we were that close Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
  16. Don't think its anything to do with Craigan leaving, perhaps media team are short handed and having to prioritise since Lewis Irons left? Just a guess though. Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
  17. Agreed, the loss to Dundee Utd at home was the killer. Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
  18. McCall sacked by Scunthorpe Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
  19. Was at the game and it was absolutely brutal. Dylan came on as second half sub and looked even bigger and less mobile than I remember. Tucked away his pen nicely though. Darren Smith complete with beard had a decent game, but overall it was rotten. Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
  20. Indeed, both subbed and Anier missed a 1 on 1 just before NI scored their second. Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
  21. Jacob Blyth scores for Barrow away at Wrexham.......Cedric benched for Wigan, perhaps a long ever present season is catching up with him? Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
  22. Right subs today, Gorin on a yellow, game won, lets get Carl back onto the pitch after his recent injury, lets give Danny Johnson some game time and see if he can adapt to lone striker role, (looked like he can't), and when your style of play requires 2 wingers, make sure another winger also gets a good run out to keep him sharp and involved.

  23. Because it is in their DNA to be moaning chunts. Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
  24. Like Aryibi you mean? Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
  25. Unused sub on fri night Sent from my SM-A320FL using Tapatalk
