  1. It's one thing saying you pay all your employees a certain wage but if you are outsourcing jobs to contractors who don't it means very little. Anyone who heard Dempster making the case for the 14 league team with the crazy three way split will know to take what she says with a pinch of salt.
  2. I watched Rose on Saturday. During the first half he made three passes. Two five yards back and one ten yards sideways. All in our half. He didn't win the ball once. Didn't get close to tackling a Hearts player until the 40th minute. Headed it once in the entire half. Didn't show for the ball to feet (just tried his usual run in the corner party piece). It was a complete horror show and completely hung Campbell out to dry. Frear is too passive. He hides out on the wing and when he gets the ball he is hesitant. I was obviously wrong about Blyth. I forgot he started the Accies game and came on as a sub at Firhill. It still raises the question of what Robinson was thinking.
  3. Aye Wee Dan was worse. Woods could at least touch the bar and kick the ball over the halfway line.
  4. The last time we played at Firhill Robinson started Jules and Blyth which raised questions about whether he had any ability to judge players. We had some dreadful performances on Saturday and while Bowman will have to play Petravicius, Frear and Rose should be getting a night off. There have been quite a few players riding on the effort of others this season and getting a pass while putting in Craig Clay level performances. Without Moult we need a serious rethink about tactics as launching long balls and playing the percentages isn't going to work without him.
  5. We'd be as well sticking coupons on to raise money as relying on a sell on fee. The proportion of players who move for a fee is tiny. Better players than Moult move on frees.
  6. There was more contact on Salah before his goal. The Everton boy dived.
  7. Dunne was constantly battling for the ball. Must have won between 20-30 contests.
  8. I thought the defence did well to keep Hearts to one goal considering the shambles in front of them. Griffiths had an easy day other than the goal which is on Campbell. I also thought that Lafferty handled the ball on the ground but it's interesting that Robinson can talk about decisions again.
  9. We cannot sell Moult without a proper replacement.
  10. Completely inept from Rose. Playing centre mid and he played three passes all half, two two yards back and one five yards to the side. All in our half. Didn't win the ball once. Headed it once. Changes required. Again.
  11. McHugh would be next in line to go in goals I think due playing Gaelic football. Having seen Morrison for the U20s he's not ready for this level.
  12. A Chelsea player just threw himself to the ground after feeling a hand on his arm. Amazingly the ref didn't give a penalty and a red card....
  13. I said he might make it back to the top league. I'm not sure if putting him on a level with Rakish Bingham, Craig Curran or Eammon Brophy is waxing lyrical. I was referring to Burrows putting a clause in his contract that he was able to activate by scoring on loan at Ayr which meant we had to extend his contract when McGhee had no intentions of playing him in the first team.
  14. You would have thought Burrows would have learned his lesson about these options after Lasley and Craig Moore.
  15. Hearts are very ordinary in the middle of the park and we should be looking to dominate possession.
  16. Game on according to Hearts. This stand has been an utter farce.
  17. Robinson still hasn't handed out a debut to any of our youth players. If we want to bring MacLean, Turnbull, Livingstone, Hastie etc into the squad and also add quality then there are going to have to be exits.
  18. Is he even that good? Most of their success was down to Hayes and McGinn and they were at the club when he arrived.They sign defenders every summer yet they always end up having to play Considine.
  19. Andrew Dallas this Saturday. Expect more incompetence.
  20. Further confirmation we should have came out all guns blazing on Monday. The Mhanks are world class manipulators and if you give them an inch they take a mile.
  21. A better left back has to be the number one priority.
  22. I think McHugh in midfield is a big part of our defence. Rose doesn't provide any protection and Campbell is always focused on the ball.
  23. Leaving out McHugh who even though he hasn't been passing well is still solid and goes in where it hurts for big blouse Rose is a worry.
