Jute Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 3rd is on Lewis for not just wiping Main out and Bates for playing Main on. Bates has been partially at fault for all 3 and looking very poor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goldie03 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 The 2nd half promised so much then completely changed with our sending off. Horrible goal from Curtis Main but Lewis again for me Still hoping we can somehow get a draw cause was such a nice change watching that first half Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jute Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 No wins in 8. Maybe acceptable in development team football but not when it’s first team football. Way we collapsed when Jenks was sent off was deeply concerning. Some very weak individuals in our team. Was this not where Brown’s leadership was supposed to help. This run of games is now going to be a major test now. Not sure we have the quality on or off the pitch to get anything from this run.

RicoS321 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 I'd say that was slightly less pish than recent weeks, we almost had the shape of an actual football team at points, in the final third. Incredibly harsh two yellows and at that point we needed the McInnes cautious sub that never came. Bates was poor today like. Lewis with a poor clearance on his wrong foot, but keepers do that all the time and the most basic rule of defending is to get into your line as quickly as possible. I mean it's drilled into players, but Bates was miles behind the others. You sprint out and retain your shape as soon as the ball leaves the keeper's foot, just as a striker should never be caught offside because they didn't get back in time. Bates also at fault for their second, and threw himself into loads of needless challenges. He just looked way off the pace. Lewis makes the wrong decision for the third, but he was always going to be second to that one and the only option of going through main was probably fairly risky - they got fucking lucky that main basically missed it. Another naive performance unfortunately. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaarDon Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Just exactly what I said about Bates He's a dirty player too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sancho_panza Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 (edited) I think we would have won that without the sending off so can't blame Glass for it too much. The harsh reality though is that result will put him closer to getting sacked. He needs something against Dundee probably or he's in trouble assuming Celtic beat us.

Panda Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Time to drop Joe Lewis. He's at fault for two of the goals. One clean sheet in 20 games - he's got to be culpable for some of that. I can give David Bates a bit more leeway in that he's still new, but fucking hell. Can we not find a decent centre half anywhere? Lewis Ferguson is another needing dropped. Offering very little at the moment. He's just playing for himself just now, constantly taking pot shots at goal because he wants to boost his goals for account and net himself a January move. That would be fine if he was hitting the target but most of the time he's not even forcing the goalkeeper into a save. Other than that, at times we were playing good stuff. It's easy to lose the head because of the run we're on. I watched Dundee v Rangers yesterday and Dundee missed a pile of chances and Rangers, without playing particularly well, get out of there with a 1-0 win. When you're luck is out, it's out. As negative as it would be, I can't help but feel maybe we should go three at the back next week v Celtic. We're losing too many goals with the back four and I really don't fancy us to go toe-to-toe attacking wise with Celtic just now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyFuckinPowers Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Kind of stayed away from here, trying to give Glass time and see where we are, the guy says all the right things and I think we can all agree there's a bit more purpose about how we try to play now, but ultimately it's not working, there are many reasons for it. First and foremost, Joe Lewis needs dropped, that's a simple one to start off with, guys as good as a goal down these days. It gets more debatable probably here after, for me, cannot for the life of me see what Scott Brown brings to this team, very much in the same vein as Lewis Ferguson, no secret I have never rated the boy, but Brown and Ferguson together is not productive. Calvin Ramsay will definitely go on to bigger things, he's a proper prospect, but he still has so much to learn defensively, MacKenzie I've no real issues with, for me, McCrorie replaces Brown in the middle of the park, McGeouch replaces Ferguson, and whilst he's clearly not started brightly, Gallagher and Bates should be Central Defense, Ramsay and MacKenzie the full backs and Woods in Goal. I'd have Samuels and Hedges as close to Ramirez as possible too, Ramirez is pretty poor all round in my opinion, but he's predatory and will score with the supply, but he spends far too much energy and time chasing lost causes, looked like he could link up well, but that was one game really and that was with Emmanuel-Thomas right next to him. It's been a pretty abysmal run of results, some good play and less aimless hoofball aside, it's not good enough. I'd have no issue in keeping Brown as a bit part Player and coach, I'd sell Lewis Ferguson to the highest bidder, McGeouch may not be a goal threat, but he is box to box and rarely loses possession, always gets about the pitch and looks for the ball, leave that to the likes of Longstaff, Hedges, Samuels etc... Woods Ramsay Bates Gallagher MacKenzie McCrorie McGeouch Longstaff Hedges Samuels Ramirez I appreciate that looks a bag of shit, but you get the idea. I just think we're being held back by poor individuals, and have been even under McInnes, although he never helped himself with poor selections and personnel for a long period of time, the same will happen to Glass if he doesn't shake it up. Sorry for the rant, appreciate constructive criticism as of course there will be many disagreements and hope everyone is well and safe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panda Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 While I don't quite agree with you that Brown offers nothing and needs dropped, I do think he had his poorest half in a Dons shirt in the second 45 minutes - he was giving away too many fouls and his passing was a let-down too. When you needed your captain to get a grip of the team he fell to bits. Would like to see McGeouch back in the team though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis was poor today and is not playing as well as he has for us but even at that level he is a far better keeper than Woods. Abysmal keeper who was signed as a cheap bench filler for injuries nothing more. No way he should be considered. Tom Ritchie supposedly looked good in the challenge cup games (saved a couple of penalties) but he was loaned to Huntly yesterday. Think we are going to have to stick with Lewis. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manc_don Posted September 26, 2021 Author Share Posted September 26, 2021 How the fuck have we not won a game since Consi got injured?!? Pathetic. That's not deriding consi, more how long it's been. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elgindon Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 If we could get the defence settled for once,you'd hope it would boost the rest of the team a bit,inc Lewis. Not sure if that means patience with the existing personnel,or another dip into the transfer/loan market which seems wasteful when were as bloated as we are. I do think Glass could still turn it round(dont ask me why),but whether he'll get the time to do so?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotfree Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 We have to start winning games NOW to keep out a relegation battle at the end of the season. I know that there is a while until the end of season, but I don't think this team will handle that pressure very well (or players playing for the badge). I wasn't expecting this year for us to set the heather on fire, but no wins in 8 games... I'm not one who wants Glass sacked now and like Elgindon I think we can come good but it has to happen very soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
