Can’t argue with that team minus Ox starting (I’m taking it he’s still not 100%)

Honestly have no idea how this will pan out. Mon the ‘Well

I see nothing wrong with that to be fair. I was saying the same to my brother earlier. It could go either way - but what's wrong with praising the team if we lose narrowly and played well? I remember the game against Celtic just before the 15 game winless run - we played great and were really unlucky to lose. Are we supposed to say we were shit if we lose even narrowly. I think there's a difference between calling it as it is and talking the team down 

Because a defeat is a defeat. There are no positives to take when we lose. It is that simple. 
 

And in the case of games at Fir Park against Rangers I’ve seen far too many narrow “so unlucky, we played so well, if only x,y or z happened/didn’t happen” for me to take any satisfaction out of a narrow loss to them. 
 

I’d much rather we played shite but won.

So have I. I went to my first game in 1979

It's not about satisfaction as far as I'm concerned. It's about acknowledging that we can play well and not win - particularly against Celtic and Rangers who we can't compete with in terms of spending 

I agree - I would also prefer to see us play shite and win but if we play well and lose I see no harm in acknowledging that 

That’s fair enough.

It’s just not for me though.

Disappointed in the club to allow the rangers display 

Its what has come to be known as two tier policing. If stewards took action the Police would come down on them hard.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. We need a new starting CB. Preferably one who can actually jump and defend corners. And now there’s our penalty box striker missing a sitter. Another starting CF is a must too.

We're missing a spine. Big decent CB, good physical defensive midfielder and physical striker.

Stephen Craigan bemoaning the new approach from the manager on the BBC (and not for the first time). He must be nostalgic for the last 10 years of abject mediocrity.

Craigan is an arseh0le….. a h*n of the highest order. His opinions are irrelevant. I can only imagine what horrors would occur if he was a centre back in this side.
