Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkOK I'll bite. You are talking Shite. Both are show ponies. I'd rather have our midfield any day as would most Hits fans.

Thought he looked composed and comfortable all afternoon. Not his fault for the goal good header out. A very promising start.

If Robbo does go to Hertz, could we afford Jack Ross. Thought he had something about him. Any views?

Another first goal for a player, always against us. Need to be better at defending corners.

O'Hara is a real unit and offers physicality in central midfield. He's an experienced player who plays defensively. He can also play in the back four. He'll plug a gap where we're short. All that said, I'm disappointed we're not bringing in a number 9 striker, at least today, as we are short there.
Not that I know much about O'Hara but club describing him as attacking midfielder.

The way it's been for us with cup draws in recent years , it would have been guaranteed either Celtic, Rangers or Aberdeen had we got through. I see the ugly sisters got their usual easy ties.
It is an absolute joke, how they keep the bigot brothers apart.

I feel the recruitment has been patchy at best. Think Gallacher, Carroll and Polworth are fine. However, I don't see what upgrade Seedorf and Long bring over Frear and Johnson apart from a probable saving in wages. Hopefully Sloth will bring a bit of structure and bite to the midfield.

Having had time to calm down a bit since last night and reflect on where we’re at after the first 3 games against teams at our level I think the goalkeeper and 1st choice defence will be fine this season, it clearly further forward where our issues lay.
Gillespie has had a tough start to the season with a couple of mistakes (not terrible mistakes right enough) but let’s not forget he make a couple of decent saves last night that people seem to be forgetting and was man of the match at Livi in my opinion, far to early to talk about dropping him, manager needs to show some loyalty.
Defence - Would be very surprised if a defence of Tait, Carroll, Gallagher and Dunne wasn’t good enough to keep us up.
Midfield - Very concerning in my opinion, Campbell works hard and gets the ball but badly needs ball players alongside him to be effective. Polworth is a tough one, plays 3 or 4 nice passes a game but just doesn’t do enough in 90 mins. Donnelly is a trier but as I feared I just don’t think he’s good enough with the ball at his feet to play that position in our league. Sooner DT gets back the better, but unless Sloth is going to appear and be a presence in that midfield then we need a holding/passing midfield player. A big part of the reason we were watching Dunne shell passes over the midfields head last night was that none of them were good enough/confident enough to come and take it off him (in fairness to Polworth I think he did it once or twice last night)
Forwards - Again, very concerning. There’s a player in Scott, as we’ve seen on occasions already, however it’s too much to ask at his age to play up there on his own against the experience/aggressive central defenders (like Berra). Should be making appearances off the bench or going out on loan until Xmas in my opinion. With Long and Cole it’s maybe a little early to tell give their game time so far, however neither looks to be the answer if we are going to persist with one central striker. The 3 wide players, Hylton, Seedorf and Ilic the early signs are not great. Hylton was truly awful last night and the other two have offered little more during their time on the pitch, however they need to be given a little time to adjust to our league and their new surroundings.
I think we need to tweak the formation for Accies Away, playing with two under performing wide players would be very risky...
I think we need a presence in midfield who can hold the ball and play passes, then make himself available again and build play and finally I think we need a strapping centre forward who can hold the ball up on his own and score goals. Can’t see us getting either on our budget but we can hope........
Really good post and sums up my view of the team. Only thing I would disagree with you is that Seedorf was even worse than Hylton last night and how he stayed on for the whole 90 mins is beyond belief. He was like a lost schoolboy player.

Were they behaving offensively?
I think there needs to be an element of live and let live. It’s not like the Green Brigade were given the main stand.
I’ve taken an unused season ticket for games at Parkhead and Ibrox and nobody had a problem.
Yes, that was the very reason i raised it. They were being aggressive toward a fan and his son, who complained about them being in the stand. Stewards did fuck all.

so many bad performances it is hard to know where to start. Passing terrible, defending at corners atrocious. Without Gillespie we would have been humped. Depressing.
