It feels like we chucked that game away,sadly the guys coming off the bench just aren't upto the job.

So we should take any investment going and spend like crazy but if we go bust it's ok cause we can come back as some tinpot outfit playing in public parks.

Something else,both posts on p&b mention the word sinister and how he should have been shown the door.

I didn't dare post that mate,it might have been too much for some 😂

There could be a lot more to buyabus departure if the couple of posts over on p&b are correct.

I hope the boy is ok and it isn't a serious matter family etc but it does leave us a player down at a crucial time in the season and with gent going off against hearts,we could be struggling at left back again,it does seem a bit of a cursed position for us.

Turnbull to cardiff seemed a strange move,his career is in real danger of stalling.

He's had just about everything else,a wee bout of dutch elm disease must be due.

Obika is a definite no,I just hope his sub appearances don't add up to an automatic years extension.

Both need to go,bevis is as much a bombscare now as when he first got In the team,butcher hasn't been the same since his injury.the playing budget the way it is,anybody that isn't performing should be shown the door,our entire defence is a mess and the only positive is that we have a few out of contract,we need to make big changes in the summer to our defence.

Poor defending has cost us yet again.we have more defenders on our books than we need and yet it's the same old story every week no matter who plays,the sooner this season is by and we see the back of most of them the better.

I'm not saying he would have been the better option just I would rather have seen us for like for like with that substitution rather than shuffling players about.

That's him

The left sided player we signed in january would have been a good start,rather than bringing o'donnell and then have to move devine.

That sums it up perfectly,the sooner we get rid of VAR the better.

I would be happy if we went with that team,defensively were poor no matter who we pick but after the last two games we do need to make a change and for me butcher would be the one to get dropped.we need to adopt the same approach as last night,get the ball down and play in the wide areas and balls through the channels for bair.theres no doubt if we go with miller,spittal,bair and vale then we can cause them problems if we're smart in possession.whoever is playing in defence should clatter shankland right away.

I know there's the option to extend obikas contract,I said it after the morton game grizzly that I hope the sub appearances he gets between now and the end of the season don't automatically trigger a new contract based on a certain number of games played,wasting another wage on him next season will be grim.

Aberdeen are bang average just like us so to not see that game out after being 3-0 up is piss poor,much like the morton game our arse collapsed when the going for tough.

We have seen the two sides of bair between friday and tonight,friday he looked like a headless chicken at times with zero awareness or anticipation,the hoofs up the park to him were scandalous though and tonight was what he's about,get him facing the opposition goal and he offers a lot,his back to goal not so much.

We definitely needed a centre half in january,somebody to come in and help steady the ship and maybe give the rest of them a boot up the arse,we have enough defenders on our books and not one of them are pulling there weight,I guess we will see the likes of blaney and casey brought back in but I don't expect that will make any difference.

Aye Kelly is over the place at the minute and we umpteen defenders to pick from but it's the same outcome no matter who plays,defensively were a shambles.

Don't really know what to make of that,to be 3-0 up then happy enough with a point is pretty grim.the big concern throughout the whole of january was our forward options but there doing there bit and its our backline thats let us down again,the sooner we see the back of the majority of them the better.

I've been critical of kelly this season,none more so than after friday night but like you say his confidence is gone,we all know he's capable of better as we have seen it especially when he first joined us.the goalkeeper position is more of a conundrum than any other,do we drop kelly for a guy that we know nothing about or hope that kelly can turn his form around,I personally think kettlewell will stick with Kelly,let's hope we're on here tonight praising him after a win.

Kettlewell will be here until the end of the season,there's no way the club will get rid of him before then,if they wanted to it would have happened a few games back when we were in a worse position than we are now.we definitely looked like we had turned a corner but the morton game was a right kick in the balls,hopefully there isn't any lasting damage from that defeat and we move on quickly.i would personally like us to part with kettlewell at the end of the season but I've no idea what direction the club will go in,if kettlewell is to remain we need a big clear out,guys like mugabi and o'donnell need to go.

If we can get through this season still in the top flight,then there's plenty of room to make changes to the team for next season with the amount of players that are out of contract.i would keep mcginn for another year and slattery is most likely going to offered something due to his injury,spittal is the priority but I think he will end up elsewhere.elliot and nicholson surely have to prove there worth to be offered anything for next season,the squad needs to be finally rid of the likes of maguire and mugabi and I hope obika even just with sub appearances here and there isn't enough to trigger a years extension.
