I agree his distribution has been better since his clanger at parkhead.  I am old fashioned and want my goalie saving shots and collecting crosses.   Defence in front of him definitely helped last few weeks 

Grizzlyg you are generally glass half full type and I get your concerns. 

However if for example. Oxborough who is good at crosses we would not have the same control in games as we would have a man less at back to keep the ball.

Our game is all about creating an extra man somewhere and ward like all others in team are a part of that.

Also he is organising defenders in front of him and very much part of us keeping clean sheets.

On game last night I like most thought the subs for us slowed us down but I would argue the point that we were more in control of game than Falkirk. 

Still haven came away from a game this season thinking the other team were better than us.

A centre forward required in January would be my choice.

You know you’re setting yourself up for disappointment here Mio .  
 

Albeit your optimism has plenty of base .  A couple of key signings would make a massive difference and maybe just maybe 

I can but dream 🤣

I said before last night's game if we took 8/9 points from our next 4 games this could very well be a standout season. Still stand by that. That's 15 games gone an no team has been better than us in any game. As poor as we were last night we were the closest of the two to getting the win.

We still had about 64% possession last night and our goalie has had 1 save in the last three games with the TEAM keeping clean sheets 3 games In a row now. So maybe shot stopping goalie not our top priority at the moment?

Its a big ask and while we wont win the league, if we were able to get a striker who can convert chances & if we hold onto the manager, i honestly see no reason we cant be in the fight for 2nd.

Typing that out just had me thinking how good Biereth could be in this team with his pace, game intelligence & eye for goal.

3 consecutive clean sheets is a big stride forward. 

Will be interesting to see if JBA brings in a striker or two in the next window. The way we are playing will hopefully interest a few additional targets. 

I'm going for clean sheet number 4 for this game with a hard fought 2 - 0 win.
