  1. True,the corner he gave away in the second half cause he only wanted to use his left foot was a touch frustrating.
  2. Great result with some impressive performances,that was mcginley's best game for us by a mile,now that he's added a bit of aggression to his game he looks a much better player.woolery was also excellent who should take a lot of confidence from that.
  3. I didn't notice it at the time but having just watched the highlights,watt running up and getting right in browns face when van veen scored was glorious
  4. He had a really good game,the second half in particular,hopefully he got took off with nothing more than a knock and we him on saturday.it was a great result all round for us,well done to all involved.
  5. I agree with that,my only real criticism of him yesterday was he was wanting to long on the ball at times but that could just be down to playing at a higher level and he isn't going to get the time hes used to,hopefully that changes as he finds his feet,he's a better option than seedorf was I would say.
  6. Having seen the tackle back,there's one of the camera angles that it does look to be a poor challenge by carroll but there's no way collum could have seen it as there was atleast three players between him and the incident,I was in the hunter and pretty much in line with the linesman who never put his flag up and it's not like the dundee players were going mad at the tackle so fuck knows what collum made his decision on.hes a shocker of a referee that does seem to like being the centre of attention in every game he's involved in.
  7. Stefan lindqvist,I think he only played a handfull of games back in the late 90s.
  8. It was far from pretty but we're grinding out results and that's the main thing.itll be interesting how we line up at the back when the norwegian boy arrives but we really need another option up front,woolery,Justin and shields look like there going to need time to adjust,van veen has shown in glimpses what he can offer but needs to be starting games.if we can bring in a half decent attacker and build on the opening games then we will be just fine.
  9. Brilliant,thanks for that mate.
  10. I've got a family member coming along today,anybody know if the ticket office will be open today to buy them a ticket.
  11. I was a bit critical when alan was promoted to the role when dempster left.it looked like the easy option but I'm chuffed to have been proven wrong,overall I think he's been excellent in the role and long may it continue.
  12. Goss isn't someone i would have signed but the pluses,he is a midfielder by trade unlike maguire and donnolly and definitely a better option than crawford,if I mind right he's a left footer which might bring a bit of balance if we're going with a midfield three.
  13. I think it's actually refreshing that flow engages with fans on twitter,anytime I've ever seen his tweets its only ever used in a positive way.ive seen a number of fans of opposition clubs wish there CEO would interact with them the way flow does with us.
  14. I'm not his biggest fan but he's exactly what we have been missing,a bit of drive and energy in the middle of the park is what the team requires.i hope we keep him in the midfield and let him play the box to box role,on today's evidence he deserves a run in the team.
  15. Ya beauty,great three points coming from behind on that pitch.im not grimmys biggest fan but he was excellent today,he brought an energy that this team has been lacking,I'm chuffed he got on the score sheet and the just as important goal saving block near the end.
  16. Another soft as shit goal to concede
  17. That team is giving me the fear already.
  18. As things stand I think 352 would suit us best for what we have,I would gladly leave out an attacker for another defender if it meant getting more cohesion in our play.would having three centre halfs playing stop the full backs being exposed and allow them to be more of an attacking threat and at the same time would the midfield be less timid knowing there's three centre halfs behind them,I certainly wouldn't be against giving it a go.if we go to livingston next week using the same system and put in another performance like yesterday then like you I'll be losing confidence that we know what we're doing.
  19. We may get away with playing 433 at home for most games but yesterday showed yet again that we can't play that system away from home.theres not one area of the team that looks comfortable in how we're trying to play,the defence is horrifically exposed at all times,I can't believe the amount of crosses we let into the box,there's no attempt to even close down,you would think we had quality centre halfs that could deal with everything that comes there way,your told even at boys club level that stop the cross you stop the goal but this seems to be a tactic of ours just not to bother and it's bit us on the arse this season more than once.the midfield is all very rigid,it's three players that basically play around the half way line,the offer nothing defensively or in an attacking sense,I'm assuming that's down to the manager as you would think players would be busting a gut to get forward and it's vital in the formation we play.for as well as we did against hibs,the movement of there front three caused us all kinds of problems because they interchange really well,one minute murphy would be wide the next he would be central,same goes for boyle and then nisbet would drift in a dangerous area,where our three look like there told,your there,your there and your there and we're just hoping something happens,everything is far to rigid in our play and we're going to be far to easy to play against especially away from home.i think we have enough good players to give us a decent season but I just don't see it happening if we keep going with the tactics we're currently using,there's definite tweaks needing done going forward.
  20. No idea mate,I hope so as that performance yesterday shows that were short of quality in a couple of areas.
  21. He said in the build up to this game that he's happy with what we have but he's still looking to add to the squad.we can't afford anymore jersey fillers,it has to be atleast a couple that are going to make a difference.
  22. After three games which of our new signings are you writing off already.
  23. It's definitely far to early to judge the new signings,i said on the dundee thread that I actually think we have signed quite well but the formation and how were looking to go about things is the big issue.
