  1. I know I'm never his biggest fan but is shinnie ever going to open his body to receive the ball? First touch is always backwards to let him turn around. Plays like a full back funnily enough
  2. Thought Polvara did really well at CB. Also thought Clarkson did well and seems to be hitting form. Maybe we should be playing around him.
  3. Can't agree. All fart no poo. Though just having some endeavour made him better than most.
  4. Shinnies passing is fucking abysmal
  5. I'd settle for somebody smashing Tony watt and accepting defeat at this point.
  6. It's shinnie playing in the hole?
  7. All the optimism is gone. We seem to have a squad who only play under a new manager bounce then collapse. Time our captain was replaced by someone with drive he's overseen multiple disasters now and is clearly unable to turn a team around. McGrath is quite comfortable playing at the bottom of the league ( he's used to it) and that's his level. Nice touches, little effect on a game. Flatters to deceive. Those being two of our middle three, is it any surprise were seeing mediocrity and not dominating? Keskinen is a headless chicken, I'd be gutted sitting on a bench watching him run into people. All round disappointing again. Mentally fragile team and despite the miracle start, Jimmy will come under pressure soon if any January changes don't improve form.
  8. United deserved that. We're toothless and we have a weak streak through this team. Imagine losing to Goodwin. Jimmy has a big few weeks. Can he be ruthless and add backbone to this squad because that's what's missing
  9. We're far too deep and laboured trying to play forward. Need to be getting that ball up to the wingers a damn sight faster. Ps McGrath is a total fraud. Tackles like an under 10s girl. Just doesn't have it in him to roll the sleeves up but amazingly always seems to stay on the pitch
  10. Is mitov our play maker now?
  11. McGrath anonymous, shinnie just isn't up to the physical games and this was always going to be one. Nilsen very poor today and we look to have no real plan other than to get it in a channel and run with it. Really poor. Changes are needed . We need to up our physicality and impose ourselves on games because the tactics have been found out.
  12. Aye he should've been out with the line.
  13. Had our chances. 4 on target each. Doohan did well Only criticism is that they just seemed a bit physically stronger in the tackle. I though Nilsen was a force in there again.
  14. Actually thought doohan looked comfortable and was quick off his line when needed ( the goal was a bit of a fluke with a deflected cross then it comes off Devlin from the header) Mcgarry played ok until going off.
  15. That was a rough second half. Again, struggling to get a foot on the ball up the pitch. Thought despite a couple of slack passes Nilsen was everywhere winning the ball. Shady was outstanding for the first half and Milne was excellent. The games changers on the bench struggled to get into it though. Not a bad result at tynecastle I'd still question playing McGrath wide instead of someone that can get past their man. Especially the way we spray it wide early. I think it's him or Clarkson, not both.
  16. Had a few let offs there. Great goal from ester, although Morris must take a lot of that credit. Centre halves and the keeper are an issue. Don't seem to know who is doing what. I know Mitov is a great shot stopper but he's quite indecisive when the ball is in the box and the centre halves don't seem to know what to expect. All young but definitely could use some work
  17. Devlin very lucky there
  18. Surely we brought a nisbet in to get in front of the centre half. Both strikers were pointless today.
  19. Most dangerous team won. Passengers everywhere. Now the real work has to start. No threat from us at all today. Sick of watching us try to cut the ball back instead of firing it across the face. Another game where the physicality was questioned.
  20. Make that two. Shady haS been really good TBF
  21. I'm not sure Clarkson, McGrath and Shayden have enough bite for me. All nice to haves when you're winning but not sleeves up and win players on a shitty winter afternoon in paisley We can carry one but not three.
  22. , never a red. Not even yellow for me. Dives in but gets the ball and misses Morris
  23. The team had been fantastic but make no mistake the occasion got to them. It was panic stations at the back for most of that game.
  24. Bottle crashed. Simple as that. Mitov should come for the first and causes mayhem for the second. His indecision is becoming an issue for me. Topi offered nothing again and could do with some bench time. We were weak in the tackle all game and were taught a lesson in movement and closing down. Celtic were ruthless but we made it easy. In 46 years I've never left any game early but tonight I did . Gutter!!
  25. In Driving in after son finishes his shift Sth stand Driving to an 18th birthday / Halloween party 3-2 dons because why not Duk, ester and keskinen to finally come of age with a winner.
