Pretty even and then we switch off by two individuals in poor form. 

How many goals has O'Donnell cost us by losing his man and unable to compete in the air?

About half as many as Casey.

My question would be why is o'donnell marking their tall central goal scoring striker for a cross and not gordon ?

Maswanhise is the only player we have capable of something a bit different and creating something. 
its sort of business as usual really. I don’t see any reason why koutroumbis was frozen out? Doesn’t look to be any worse than what we have had served up at right back this season.

O'Donnell wrong side of the attacker again.

I'm not a fan but was going to say he was looking a bit better today,  I can't see what's what with the stream I have, will need to see goal again

I have a feeling they might be gubbed around 70 mins, more running than usual

Couple of chances , header off line and wee masa shot, they've not had much but the usual, we don't defend well enough.

If you are going to play a back 3 maybe sure they can all win balls in the air. The old saying that you couldn't get a fag paper under his feet when he jumps is definitely appropriate.

Wilson stood right off him and was pointing towards the overlap gave the guy an age to tee it up deliver his cross and where you would expect gordon to be it was sod and was out positioned and out jumped by a centre that's good in the air,schoolboy defending.

Odonnell is definite poorest of the 3 in the air. Beggars belief why Dalby (one of the leagues strongest in the air) is left one on one with SOD. I’m not even sure Casey or Gordon were within 15yrds of him when that cross went in. Very Poor goal to lose.

Looking at the goal again. Odonnells man. Dalby did well to isolate a one on one, and was  physically stronger. Maybe they should have Gordon man marking Dalby. To late now tho.

Odonnell is not a center back. With his experience you would have thought he would make it difficult for Dalby, but nope.

Agree need a bit more drive from mid,sparrow being asked to do a lot of forward pressing.
