Gone.....thank fuck.

Exactly this. Sligo lost three goals to a bunch of Welsh amateurs in the previous round, who were presumably also in their 'pre season' phase. The fact that we lost 3-0 over two legs to them and rarely even looked like scoring against them, says it all.

We did all the right things, I can't fault them for effort, sometimes these games are about fine margins and things just didn't go our way........I could write it for him.

Exactly the same as what we did last week. Lets see how many players we can play out of their natural position. Seriously, anyone who thinks that Alexander has a plan beyond 'I know what I'm doing, you're ll wrong and it doesn't matter how often results go against us, I'm still right'. We've been watching the same disjointed non football since the start of last season. Without the goals that Watt scored and this is what we're left with.

Jake Carroll is utterly useless.

WT a F ?????

Or we could equally have a first half to the season the same as our second half of last, which would leave us 'bouncing around' in the relegation zone. I think that's a hell of a lot more likely than us having a first half of the season similar to the first half of last season.

As others have said, not unexpected. We've been dross since December, bar what, two results ? We were dross before December for the most part but managed to score enough in games where we were under the cosh to take the points. Question that needs to be asked is what is the manager playing at ? Can Carrol defend the left flank ? No, so he can't be played as a wingback in a 443 because if he can't defend when he's in position, how is he going to defend when he has to go forward regularly ? Is Spittal left sided ? No, so why did he spend most of the game on the left ? Is Morris a right sided player ? No, so why did he spend all but the first ten mins on the right ? Is Shields a winger ? No, but he's played out wide right for months now, with the same result over and over again. Why, when we've been over run in midfield since the start of last season, do we persist with a midfiled three ? if we're going to play 4 at the back, why is it a different 4 nearly every week ? 'Systems' are all well and good but sureley you have to base your system around getting your best players on the pitch doing what they're best at, rather than making them play a system that it's proven over and over again doesn't work.

Calm down everyone. According to a lot of people on here towards the end of last season, it is a necessary part of the process to go 3 months without a win to scab a couple of results and reach your target position. Alexander has got this.

Can almost hear Alexander's post match interview in my head now.......

Or a defending team really.....

Oh dear........

Stream good so far here in France. Not seeing a massive gulf in quality between the sides so far.

Plays either side of the front three according to the 'fishel....

75-76 SC 3rd Round against Celtic and obviously, the 91 SF Replay. Both I suspect had highlights posted here many times :-)

Can play anywhere across the front three.....

Was Wullie P not also rejected by Alloa or something ?

Who are you counting as a good guy in that photo ??? Not McClair surely ? (The original McCair was a good guy, the one that came back was a wk).

He sounds like he'd be a great player. Up there with other brilliantly named players of our past, like Abel Thermeus, Casper Sloth, Esteban Casagolda and Stevie Cowan.

Do you have a preference for male of female or can any blonde with big tits message you ?

1-1 now, united pen.

County 1 up LOL

Fucking Celtic letting us down now !!

Slattery looks much more effective in that forward position.

FFS Ojala...
