Big Stall

Not really, if we get beat on Sat we are still in a battle to ensure we at least get that playoff spot.

Starting to calm down now, or maybe malaise has set in. At the end of January i wanted Barraclough out, a complete imposter is what i thought. Then, credit to him, Feb and March he turned things around. Even ignoring our positive results, the football on show was such an improvement on what we had seen all season. We were a threat and actually had a go at teams. First half last night we certainly didnt hit the heights, but we had 4-5 really good chances. Luck didnt favour us, on another night we would have went in at 3-1 up. Thats got to be encouraging given we were not firing 100%. However........ the shambles we saw in the second half once accies had scored was shocking. Our players were hiding from the ball, they had chucked it and given we are in a relegation fight this is very troubling. Balls need booted after lastnight. I dont want us to get relegated but the least i expect from the team is that if we are going down (12th or into the playoffs) we fight and give 100% up to the final whistle. I doubt any one of our team could look themselves in the mirror and say they did that lastnight.

Hope so. Chances are I should be back in time. Worst case scenario I'll at least have made the train to Glasgow by kickoff and can watch it in a pub.

Do we know if there will be a pay at the gate option? I'm working in Aberdeen during the day (should) make it back in time, but don't want to shell out for a ticket just incase.......

Look on the brightside, we would be fucking legends if we were the team that beat Rangers in the playoffs and kept them down

Its a bit of a cliche that every week we seem to be looking at 'the biggest game of the season', but this really is one of them. Win and we effectivly relegate St Mirren. Lose and they are right back in the fight to avoid 12th place!

From what iv been told, Ross County haven't been that good football wise, but they are obviously picking up the wins. Perhaps a combination of determination and confidence. Hopefully their bottle crashes soon......

Lionel, wasn't going to vote for him as I thought he was shite in the first half, but........ once that goal went in he was unstoppable. Watching the extended highlights helps see what he can do. Great goal, great finish for the second and then when he started running at their defence he had them everytime. A couple of close attempts, one bad pass when he put in a lung bursting run from our box. He was on fire in the second half. Would love to have seen the wee man hit that pen. The way he can put the laces through it he would put the keeper through the net.

First half I thought it was the worst of our four recent 'revived' performances. Not bad, and certainly miles better than the rest of the season, but not as good as the last three. Second half, much better. We really need to be keeping our foot on the gas, I hope Barraclough and the senior players drill it into the rest of them that they can't relax. We are playing well but with the way Ross County and Thistle are picking up points, we are literally in the fight of our lives. Lionel, what a conundrum he is. I thought he was terrible in the first half, indeed I said after 17 minutes we should just get him off now, he's no use when he's not at the races. What a turn around second half, and when he really got the bit between his teeth he was probably unplayable. We need him stepping up that side of his game big time. OK, he's not going to score 35 yard pearlers everyweek but when he has his eye in and starts running at teams with pace he is some weapon. Special mention to 'big straker'. I along with many others here have given him stick but credit where its due, the boy played well. Onwards and upwards, need to rack up some points.

Yabba, still cant see any reply/edit options. My name bar has a big tick and thats it. just had a new android update the other day if that is anything to do with it or i could just ve being daft

Weeyin, not from the version on my phone. Cant quote or edit etc.

IMO! Is there no edit function yet?

^i would have Pearson rather than Vigurs in the team IMI

lawson got his latest injury during his best game for us. If he could give that level of performance every week and wasn't always injured, he would be a good addition to the squad, maybe even the first team

Glass half full busta, its at least 9.5degrees today!

Twitter updates suggesting Dom Thomas and Craig Moore are currently running riot in the under 20s game

We dont have time for fannying about though. If he is better than the options who are in the starting 11, then he needs to play.

Two weeks ago i would be expecting a hammering. Now however we have started playing football and attacking teams. Im hoping we catch these arseholes cold and they dont know whats hit them! 0-3 to the 'well!

So what did he say? Don't leave us all hanging

Erwin for me, best i've seen him play. Skippy and Pearo made a right difference

Aye but the grill on the corners triple fried chips are pretty good. Maybe he should have had a jacket or mash with his steak but lets not make it out as something its not. He had a steak dinner in a very nice restaurant. He didn't go for a Mc D's or a fish supper in the Rex! Joking aside, i do know where you are coming from. I read an article on Andy Murray a couple of years back and his diet and training regime is unbelievable. However, do we know what level of nutritionists we have at the club? Do we know the players are not told they can't have a beer or a nice meal after a match? Maybe its as much the clubs fault as the lad himself that he orders chips with hus steak!

I dont think its that bad if they are semi famous and you have a vested interest such as supporting the team. The bit i dont get is when folk start following players burds as if they know them. Remember many a post on here going on about Tom Hateley's bird and the fact she was pro - Rangers. Who the fuck cares!!

A steak with a side of chips is bad behaviour now? Whodathunkit??

To be fair, Barraclough was playing our right winger for the first few games and most of us on here agreed that he needed dropped. Can't argue with the rest though

So, sitting with sieb_dykstras_barmy_army and he is making a good case for his opinions. I'm particularly interested in his thoughts on Straker, N Thomas and Davey Clarkson. Hopefully he will brief everyone
