Worst half of the season. Just caved in and stopped playing like we can. Really disappointing as the game was ours. And to put the Tin lid on it, the wee saluting h*n got the winner.

Crowds will drop again as people getting fed up with collapsing in second half. Real defensive issues there.

It’s just so frustrating because we do have some really good football in us but we aren’t able to actually make it count in terms of winning games. And at the end of the day it counts for nothing if you don’t put points on the board. We are good in the middle but weak at the back and toothless up front.

Maybe one day we will have all our best players on the park. This nonsense of sports science etc needs to get in the bin. Let them play as they are more than likely just get injured training anyhow.

Still early days, but we need to start learning and wise up. 

Soft goals lost again today. 

Players looked flat and tired second half. Usual after International fixture and performance.

That was a feckin disgrace today, 1-0 up at half time when it should  have been at least 3 and we turn out a feckin brutal 2nd half performance and gave 3 points to a team that done feck all and never looked like scoring. A shocker of a performance, we are weak in midfield when Slattery is out and still lightweight up front.

Yeah cos it would have been easier to take us losing if it had been any other Falkirk player that scored would it? Or at least a non-Rangers supporting one?? :rolleyes:

As good as we were first half.

Hearts, 3-0 up, didn't win.

Kilmarnock, 2-1 up, didn't win.

Dundee, 1-0 up, didn't win.

Celtic, 2-1 up, lost

Falkirk, 1-0 up, lost.

That's 12 points down the swanee because this team cannot defend a lead.

It's not bad luck, this is a thing, this is a serious, serious deficiency and it needs to get sorted and sorted quickly because if it doesn't being 2 points off the bottom will seem like the good old days.

We have Livingston and Dundee Utd coming up.  These are absolutely pivotal matches for the way our season could pan out.

We have been very good at times this season but we are mentally weak and it's cost us far to many points already,it's happening far to often for it to be anything other than a worrying trend.that second half was atrocious and that's putting it mildly,we threw that game away rather than the opposition having to do much.

1 win in 8. And it was a lucky win against Aberdeen. Relegation form. 

There’s no arguing with any of this.

You can point to good football and ‘if onlys’ all you like but the bottom line is that we are now in mid/late October and have ONE solitary league win on the board. And when you take into account the points we have thrown away from winning positions in several games now then it really is damning reading. 
 

Today should have been three points but we have yet again thrown that away because we aren’t capable of making advantage count and seeing a game out when on top. The longer that goes on the bigger the issue it becomes.

Says you who brought Rangers into this discussion in the first place?? 😂

I don’t know about you or anyone else, but my only concern is Motherwell and how we play and if we get beat then I really couldn’t care less what team the player who scores supports/used to play for.

I didn’t mention rangers, I said about airfield, similar to when polworth scored against us. You didn’t mention that.
Only any negative rangers comments trigger you.

It's disappointing again dropping more points ,  I certainly won't be turning against the gaffer or any of the players

We do seriously need a few wins very soon . Crazy to think how much further up the league we would be right now if we had even took some of those dropped points

Russel Martin get flak for refusing to or being unable to change tactics on a game. Jba is similar. When teams adjust/ change tactics against us, he has no plan b. 

There's definitely truth in that,even this early in the season we have created the blueprint for the opposition on how to play against us,all they need to do is stay in the game and we will crumble,the next game at home could very well be a carbon copy of today.
