One worrying thing for me is that two managers, McInnes and Presley have changed things at half time and we have struggled. After the first round of games all managers will have had a close look at us. Let's hope JBA is able to adjust our way of playing if the opposition has sussed us out.
Manager needs to rethink the goalie being 40 yards from his goal. That cost us today and other clubs will be watching. Oh and imagine the melt down if it had been SOD who gave the ball away for the goal.
The tactic of a defender taking a by kick and passing it to the goalie boils my piss. By definition the goalie is the worst outfield player in the team and if we continue with that tactic we will lose crazy goals. Also having the goalie standing 40 yard off his line will lead to someone scoring from their own half. Twente tried a long range shot in the second half but it was a poor effort. I think the manager is in for a rude awakening when the real stuff starts.
Our colours are claret and amber. Not claret, amber and white. In the fifties and sixties shorts were either black or white. Now we can have claret or amber shorts.

We are relying on a squad of players who have no investment in the club. To go into a relegation battle with a whole load of players who will all be off as soon as the season finishes and will not suffer the consequences of relegation really gives me the fear.
A massive game. The most important for a while. A win gives us a slim chance of top six but more importantly puts us nine points in front of Kilmarnock and at least seven in front of Dundee with six games left. Lose and it is three in front of Killie and four in front of Dundee if they beat St Mirren. We will then be right in the relegation play off mix.
