Glasgow And West Red Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 We are not playing well and dont seem to have goals in us at the moment,maybe tommy wright should be given his chance alongside maybe sone aluko or jamie smith Lee miller's from has gone pear shaped and i simply dont rate barron but we wont get into that just now as its likely to get heated. Whats worrying is that if we dont find form in the next two or three games we could soon be out the top six?? Hibs fans are raging and they want big mixu sacked as they beleive they are having a horrendous season,they are only six points off us. Quote

Hibs fans are raging and they want big mixu sacked as they beleive they are having a horrendous season,they are only six points off us. I'm really not keen on Aluko through the middle, much prefer him out wide (as long as we manage to get the ball to him, of course) and likewise Mackie... if he's going to play, play him through the middle and not out wide!

quirie Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 The scary thing is Motherwell are only 3 points of us now. A win against St Mirren is essential now Quote
BrownyBrown Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 We're exactly where we deserve to be in the league right now. We've failed to take advantage in matches against our nearest rivals for 3rd place and now when theres a chance to make ground on one or both of them we've failed again. Quote
Glasgow And West Red Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 Hopefully gary macdonald and jamie smith will start in paisley to give us a wee bit of freshness in the team,its time mackie was given a spell in the reserves and miller was given a spell on the bench as he seems to have lost form??

Are you asking us or telling us? I don't think MacDonald will be back in time for Tuesday as JC said he wasn't recovering as quickly as they thought he would. Quote

dave_min Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 Oops, to be fair, I only skimmed your post as I thought your were talking shite in most of it Quote
Glasgow And West Red Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 Anyone but barron mackie,we must have half decent reserve strikers who could do a better job than this joker? Quote
Mackie's ace! Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 Surely half decent isn't good enough? Quote
Glasgow And West Red Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 Surely half decent isn't good enough? Yes but the problem is mackie isnt even in the half decent bracket Simple as that Quote
Mackie's ace! Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 He's not even playing up front at the moment. Quote
Glasgow And West Red Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 He's not even playing up front at the moment. Thats because he has a appauling scoring record compared to number of appearances,he either has something over jimmy calderwood or calderwood just feels sorry for him why else would you play a loser Quote

Agree, Wright probably deserves a chance. As for Mackie, he's playing wide right at the moment. I'm hoping Smith will start there soon then there should be competition for places up front which will hopefully be the kick up the arse some of them need. Quote
Kowalski Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 Thats because he has a appauling scoring record compared to number of appearances Better than Lee Miller's though! Quote
BrownyBrown Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 If we can get players like McDonald and J Smith fit then we shouldn't have to worry where about Mackie plays because he'll won't get a look in. He is still a squad player IMO, no better than that. Quote

tlg1903 Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 I dont think hearts have slipped away from us just yet, there are 30 points to be played for after all. I said in another post that we have always come good in the last quarter under jc and hoepfully that will continue to be the case. As others have said the drop in form seems to be directly related to gary mcdonald being out of the side, hopefully smith can emulate some of the creativity that mcdonald gave us. Lets not get too down folks, we have had some bad luck in all this too. Hitting the post in the last minute at tynecastle for example though speaking of hearts i cant help but be impressed by how well they have coped without berra, thought they were going to cave big time when he left Quote

My sentiments exactly............... Quote
Jute Posted February 28, 2009 Report Posted February 28, 2009 Who has scored more goals (from open play) than Mackie this season, for Aberdeen? Nobody and its one of the reasons we are 5th. 6 goals is the sort of total you expect from the main striker of a team struggling to stay in the league not one supposedly looking to finish third. Not that being third means anything really. Quote

Actually I do not think we are where we deserve to be. I still think the only reason we are as high as 5th is the fact the rest of the teams are pish as well. Quote
