Agree wholeheartedly ……think we made tentative enquiries last year but got knocked back

Somebody needs to remind him of how Paul Slane’s career path panned out when he left at 17.

The number on the back of your shirt means nothing nowadays

People on here have been shouting about the lack of leadership/organiser at the back. What ever else you think of McGinn IMO these are two qualities that he brings to the table

He played for Chelsea so that might have been enough to put a spanner in the works

Did you see SOD push Cornelius (I think who was waiting for the ball to bounce ) out of the way and volley the ball to the halfway line.

May be way of the mark here but I would imagine the manager, whoever he is would be present at least 1 board meeting a month during the season .

We have the worst 2 fullbacks in Scottish football ……… and I include the juniors in that. Mugabi and Carroll haven’t got a clue how to play that position

Correct!!! He who pays the piper calls the tune ………… It’s how the world works

Have read all this talk of Alexander and Slattery having some sort of fall out and I just don’t buy it. If that was the case he would be nowhere near the 1st team squad let alone sitting on the bench on match days. A player and a manager fallout then there is only one winner and it’s not the player. Slattery played almost every game until he was suspended and I’m sure he was one of the players who had COVID just before the break. Players nowadays are monitored every second during games and also in training. Maybe just maybe Slattery data in training ( Wee box of tricks they all wear on their backs ) shows that his energy level recovery rate are not where they were before had had COVID ……… fit enough to sit on the bench but nowhere near fit enough to start a game. Also all this chopping and changing could COVID testing have something to do with it ??? Deepest Lanarkshire is rife with it

That front 3 yesterday will never work neither Shields nor Efford are wingers and there’s no point trying to play someone off KVV as that not how he plays (greedy bastard) Play KVV up front on his own with 5 in midfield and have 2 of them (Tierney and Shaw) breaking their butt to join him. As for Slattery feck knows what’s going on there not the fastest but he can put his foot on the ball actually pass it to a teammate and breaks play up and win us free kicks.

The tackle from Bevis was not a red card … … have a good look at it he goes for the ball with his instep and his foot never leaves the ground and he makes contact with the ball Not his fault that he’s twice the height and build of the Hibs player. The reaction of the Hibs players getting into Collums face got him sent off. Agree with you on the Roberts one a definite red card

RED Big strong guy going legally for the ball and the lighter guy not being strong enough to take the hit YELLOW Small guy flying in with studs and the defender riding the tackle So in summary Big strong defenders are no longer allowed to make tackles on lightweights

Correct worse than the one yesterday studs up nowhere near the ball and catches United man above the ankle

If I’ve got any money left after Cheltenham I’ll be lumping on Ciftci anytime goal scorer

Big strong player hitting a lighter player and the lighter player not being able to withstand the challenge As I’ve said in previous post if that’s what refs are taking into account then the games fucked

1st thing 1st Callum is an arsehole of areferee the card was out before the Hibs player does his 3rd roll. Now to the tackle I have went through it frame by frame and it’s not a straight leg nor is it studs up its along the ground with his instep and he connects with ball 1st. Excessive force ??? Could be argued but for me it’s a big physical player hitting a lighter player and sending him flying if refs have to take that in to account then the game is fucked !!! Now to the bit that has really got on my tits the reaction of the Hibs players to influence the refs decision ( not that Callum needed much influence) watch the clip and look at the Hibs No 5 Ryan Porteous celebrating as if he’s scored a goal when a fellow professional is sent off. Arsehole of a football player and even worse as a person I wish him nothing but I’ll will going forward and hope whoever they get in the semi-finals takes them to the cleaners.

WHY… … he had already got his contract with Dundee United he had nothing to prove and would want to stay injury free

Play 2 up front and 4 in midfield ……… sorted !!!

Not if he says up yours and goes through the motions and doesn’t try a feck … … then we’re £100 grand and 6 months wages down Caught between devil and the deep blue sea … … no win situation … … don’t think he’s set the heather on fire at United

Hard to disagree with any of that. Surely we must try different midfield combinations in training ?? Yet we still come up with O’Hara Donnelly and Goss week in week out. Why sign the boy Shaw on loan then only give him cameo appearances … … the boy is big strong and mobile and can pass a ball from A to B with a decent success rate. Also playing 3 forwards ( 1 in Wishaw 1 in Motherwell and 1 in Bellshill ) just does not work. Play 2 up top with young Tierney just behind them and a least he will try and link the forwards with the midfield. Oh and 1 of my 2 would not be KVV who is a law unto himself and very seldom lifts his head and bring others into play. When he’s on it he is almost unplayable but all to often he is reported missing and all he wants to do is throw his weight about giving stupid fouls away and giving teams an easy out ball.

Heard this from a few people re a replacement for Tony Watt could someone please come up with some names of players within our budget that we should have been making offers for in a January transfer window. You can put them on a fag packet if you can come up with any !!!!!

He has been consistent with a midfield of O’Hara Donnelly and Goss and they are shite

Agreed and like Carl McHugh he’s a centre half trying to play in midfield

Get him to fuck ……… He’s a lot of what is wrong with our midfield
