  1. Frustrating team to support, no consistency at all. Never thought we'd see this today, but happy to get the point spread up!
  2. While I look at the stats, there is only one that counts. Shots on goal and corners might help, but possession means nothing. If passes counted Henderson at Liverpool is the best, but that's only because he's petrified he might have to do something with the ball if he keeps if for more than three seconds. More goals than the other team seems like the best measure for me in the long run. Bring back the Weir, Hunter, Saint, Quinn and Andy Weir any day!!!
  3. Better football is always good to watch. Anything like Saturday would cause a riot.
  4. From someone at the game or watching, is there better football, or is it still hoofball? This from a fan of the Babes who only played football.
  5. Think it's time to hear from the club. What exactly is their vision for the organization, and how far along are we towards that vision? The fan ownership is a wonderful idea, but how viable is that with so few attending games. Hearts have started down that road, but have a committed owner at the moment, and they have a very different level of support. And, if I'm right, Hearts owner seems prepared to continue until the fan option has a better chance of succeeding.
  6. That's the season really, no cups, no chance of top six. It's also the end of any hopes more people will come out to support them. There's just no reason to waste time and money when there's nothing positive to play for, except staying up. And there's no chance anybody will be in to buy what's left on the field with any serious money. Never thought I'd get to this level of thinking.
  7. I just love how they go for a break in the warm weather when the last thing they need is training in conditions they will not be in for the rest of the season. Would your boss take you on a sunny holiday if you been working below par for six months?
  8. I really don't give a sausage about the German guy, but with Sammon there has to be a catch to it!!
  9. Think there are now 3 like that, Killie, Accies, Livi, so as long as they are not banned, you have to play on them. So it's not a new or unique experience. Really just have to get on with it and not use it as an excuse for a dreadful exhibition like we produced today. We've had just as bad performances at Fir Park this season.
  10. Did the team bus break down somewhere? Must be a pick up team from the crowd playing today.
  11. Yep, with this combination of commentators, it's already how unfair the ref has been. Lewis will try to concentrate on the game if we're lucky.
  12. Forget all the other comparisons guys, they don't help today whatsoever. This is about us, and it's bad news bno matter how you try to spin it.
  13. True Weeyin, but those were different times. Top level football today is all about money, and we have none that amounts to anything. How many people do you think will pay to support this rubbish?? Even in the bad times we've had more support than now. Sad to say.
  14. Is it time for me to comment on our ownership model yet?? Well and truly hoping to keep 9th place now, but this is atrocious.
  15. Too bad, but the odds are pretty long against the OF with their depth compared to bottom six
  16. I've always felt the sell model simply doesn't build a competitive team, and in looking for the gem you end up with a team like this where decent players like Cadden and Campbell are abused trying to get a spark in a bog. I don't remember a team as bad as what we have now. It's also strange that with the success of Moult and Kipre, that the cupboard was bare last summer, with nobody coming in with any real potential.
  17. Best manager in the league is maybe stretching it a bit, but that's the difference in securing that 6th position at the end of the year. The other 5 have a massive financial advantage.
  18. The more I see the more I believe our model just doesn't work at our level. We don't have the support base to generate enough money since football is now, unfortunately, all about money. We've sold three decent players over the last few years, but what we get for them, good as it once was, simply doesn't earn enough to get anybody in who can fill the gap of the exiting players, and we can't afford to pay the wages of any half decent loan player. I admire the work done by the Society, but you can now predict attendance will drop, and struggling supporters might be looking to put their money into more practical places unless something dramatic happens, and I can't imagine what that would be. We're back at the manager issue again n terms of summer signings, team selection, and tactics, albeit there's been injuries as well, and I think sooner than later has to be on the table. Ugh!!!
  19. The reality of this league now is that the top five will play for the top five positions, and the rest will at best get a shot at 6, and that will be down to how well the scraps are managed. Killie are being managed best just now, and we are already fighting relegation. I'm an old guy and find myself looking back for great Well years, not looking forward. Sad really, but we seem to have lost the plot.
