Sorry ………… But have you watched the 3rd goal Hastie is on the edge of the 18 yard box when Gillespie collects the ball from the corner He sprints 40 - 50 yards to take the throw out in his stride He then is to strong for the first defender and then drops his shoulder as if to go inside and while still going at speed goes to the outside of the 2nd defender This bit of skill is what makes the defender to do the splits and fall making him look like Bambi on ice … great bit of skill by Hastie Hastie then puts the ball throgh the legs of the keeper ………… how many goals are scored with the ball going through keepers legs ?? The highlights are on BBC web site and on official site ………… suggest you and Gazzy go and have a look and just appreciate a great bit of skill from young Hastie

Don’t know what game you were at For the first goal Hastie was brave and put his head in where the keeper could have taken it off As for the third he out mussels the first defender the sits the second one on his arse with his skill and then has the composure to slot it home A bit of credit where credit is due wouldn’t go amiss

If we’re not going to give them game time between now and the end of the season the 2 players that we should be looking to loan out for experience are James Scott and Adam Livingston

His 1st job is to get Adam Livingston and James Scott out on loan Let’s get these two boys playing regularly week in week out for the next 2 to 3 months Look what that has done for young Hastie !!!! If they kick on as well as young Maguire at QOS we have the makings of a exciting young squad for next season Gillespie Maguire Livingston Cadden Campbell Turnbull (If still here) Hastie Scott

With the amount of money he’s made from the game doubt cash comes into it He worked with Robinson and Lasley on match days seen him in the stand both home and away taking notes and disappearing to dressing room at halftime Just wonder if when McCart left us for Celtic how many of our youngster will be tapped up to follow him

Heard he’s away to Celtics U16 …… yes U16s Think that shows his ambitions

Well said … … … not to everyone’s liking but a really good steady pro who seems to go under the radar doing the dirty shift that is appreciated by those around him Your welcome back at Fir Park anytime Andy All the best in your future career

Correct they actually made the team worse if that was at all possible

Sorry but up until today was prepared to give him benefit of the doubt BUT how can anyone explain those substitutions today ……… the back 3 were doing fine and never at any time look under pressure The obvious problem was the midfield where Grimshaw was a waste of a jersey McHugh couldn’t pass water and for god sake please please get Tait back to right hand side where he belongs And as for Main he canny even foul people properly and couldn’t score in a barrel of F****y’s So we end up with 4 forwards on ( 3 of whose 1st touch is a pass) and no one to get the ball to them Im afraid I think he has lost the plot and it’s tie for him to GO and GO now

That farce today should be done under Trade Description Act for trying to impersonate a FOOTBALL MATCH !!!!!!!!!!

Yip the priority has got to be St Midden Killie and Accies games As the Tic will be up for this big time and the way they tend to keep the ball and make opposition teams work I would save the legs of Campbell, Turnbull,Main and Johnston for the more important games coming up. Also change of formation 4 - 5 - 1 for me and try to frustrate them anything we get out of this game is a Xmas bonus!!!! Gillespie Mbulu. Aldred Hartley Dunne Grimshaw Bigi Gorrin Rose Frear Bowman Tell Bowman to empty his tank then substitute him for Salmon at about 55 / 60 minutes

Your right … … was speaking to him on Wednesday night and injury making progress but he doubts if he will play this season

Sorry … … … But it’s got to be horses for courses Livii had about 5 or 6 guys who were 6ft+ They play for set pieces so they can fire in free kicks, corners or long throws We play a midfield of midgets !!!! So what do you expect … … they score from a long throw and a corner If ever there was a time to play hoof ball this was it there is no way you can play football on that surface and no way you can run with the ball so the surface took away everything that Bigi and Grimshaw brought to the party last week.

Picked up knee knock against Rangers … … worse than first thought, heard he could be out for up to a month Young Livingston at left back and Tait to right back Lets stop trying to be smart and stop trying to put square pegs in round holes

Samson going to coach the goalkeepers what NOT to do to make them better goalkeepers

Was Thomson not the ref a few years ago when we were beating Aberdeen 1-0 Aberdeen got a penalty’s which was saved (can’t remember keeper) and twat face Thomson made them take it again due to encroachment, how many times have you seen that happen. Needless to say Aberdeen scored with the retake

Your understanding is correct his contract is up in the summer along with that of Barry Maguire not sure about Adam Livingston As I have said on numerous occasions on various threads have watched young Turnbull over last couple of years ( ok got to take into account quality of opposition) but watching this boy there is something about him. He should have been getting game time at the start of the season against the likes of Edinburgh City, Clyde, Stranraer as should Barry Maguire Very similar to young Campbell last year it has taken us till we have just about hit rock bottom before these boys are given a chance. We should be getting his contract extended as a matter of priority along with that of Barry Maguire ( here’s another snippet for you this boy has also got what it takes to kick on in this game if only we give him a CHANCE ) This is where man management comes into play with these boys knowing when to put them in and take them out as there is going to be a period with every young player whe the go off the boil. Think this is the case with young Campbell sine he came into the team last year the boy has hardly had a break from 1st team went away with Scotland in the summer played in all their gams and has also played during the international breaks this season …… to much football !!!! The break he is having at the moment in my mind will do him good and hopefully like yesterday manager manages minutes on the park between Campbell and Turnbull as I have every hope that they will be our midfield for quite a few years to come.

Nether Mbulu, Turnbull or Maguire were in the reserve squad yesterday Livingston only played for 45 minutes Whats the chances of them playing involved tomorrow night?

YES WE DO His name is Barry Maguire But just like David Turnbull ( up until Saturday) Robinson will not give him a chance

David Turnbull display yesterday proved that he has the ability at this level Still only a young lad and he tired after about 65 minutes which should have been anticipated by coaching staff and a plan being in place for substitution That said the time that this boy should have been getting 65 - 70 minutes of game time was during league cup section games and he was nowhere to be seen [ shite forward planning] As far as this 3-5-2 shite goes time for it to be binned …… think Robinson is so intrenched and stubborn that he won’t change it Time for 4-5-1 formation ……… only 1 up top because Main and Bowman between them barely contribute 1 player

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again young Turnbull has all the attributes to make it to the very top IMO he’s got more potential than Alan Campbell Should he be playing every week …… No Should he be getting more game time ……Yes As what happens with a lot of young players Alan Campbell has hit the proverbial brick wall … boy got no rest over the summer as he was away with Scotland and he’s played in every U21 games this season ……… Club should have been more proactive in protecting him ……… but our start to the season and Robinson’s insistence that we play 3 -5-2 has meant that he has played in just about every game. Looking forward to the day when we play Cadden Campbell and Turnbull in midfield …… although think that is a long way off under Robinson

NAIL. HAMMER. HEAD

For me that hits the nail on the head !!!!!!

FFS what can you say about that performance absolute non event as a football match both teams would put you off wanting to go to games Livi were bad but what sort of performance was that from us Donnelly must be one of the worst players to pull on the jersey in the last 20 years But to the main cause for concern OUR shape we played back 3 all season and it is just not working but Robinson is determined to persevere with it. A blind man and his dug can see it’s not working but still he continues with it. We still continue to try and put round pegs in square holes eg. Donnelly and Tait on the left when neither of them are comfortable on their left foot created a complete on balance. I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s his way or no way I cannot believe the seasoned ex pros like Lasley or McManus can sit there and are unable to see what is going on Im sorry but my patience (along with plenty of people around me in POD) is running out with Robinson ……… he’s dug himself into a hole with the formation and seem unwillingly or incapable of changing it. Some of our attempts to pass the ball to our own players today was embarrassing

Change of formation is a must … … we must start by not giving the opposition freebies To that end a back 4 is a must I would then play defensive midfielder in front of them and then a midfield 4 with 1 up front We really have to get back to a solid base to build from
