  1. We tried to play the same, given the limitations of the team selection,, but until we can field our strongest 1st choice 11, with the new signings up to speed etc its hard to compare.
  2. I take your point re the academy players, but we are 5 days away from the Euro qualifiers, and two weeks tomorrow the Premiership campaign starts, so last night should have been about getting our 1st choice 11 up to speed etc but it was a shambles. It was a decent enough performance against a good team but, we were all over the place, 3 goals gifted to Genk by shocking defending, the new signings did not look fit especially Vogts,he looked like a competition winner getting his chance to play with the 1st team. When you add to this the ever expanding injury list and the ongoing uncertainty over players leaving or not we are heading into the season in a pretty unprepared state. I really hope it all comes together this week and we can concentrate on getting past Havnar and into Q3, that will give us the boost we need to get off to a good start in the league, hopefully with the injury list reducing quickly.
  3. From what i saw tonight it look like the majority of the seats have been replaced (incidentily by cheap uncomfy plastic crap , not as good as the old ones) The only section i could see from my seat with the orihinal seats was above me to the left of the good padded seats in the members area.
  4. Totslly agree with you on that one uncomfy cheap shoddy crap, basic plastic sests screwed to an unfinished plank. I know there was limited time to replace them but for me they have made a complete mess of them. Every other stand now has better seats than the pod, i know the options are limited with it but for me they have opted for the cheap crappy option and it shows, we should be getting a reduction in our ST prices for having to sit in them.
  5. We are stil playing it, but without a defence, no Sod, McGinn, welsh, and longelo is nowhere to be seen, Connelllys 1stctouch was picking the ball out of the net. Not where we want to be at this stage 6 days before a euro qualifier
  6. Defensively we are very poor Dave, Genks 1st goal was a brilliant hit, keeper had no chance, the 2nd and 3rd were shambolic defending. 6 days till the ECL game and tonights line up looks nowhere near a team that inspires confidence. To be fair though Genk are a good side.
  7. I see the block e contingent are determined to get the club fined again with more idiotic pyro nonsense.
  8. Aye, Scottish football would be in a far better place if those two fecked off to England, we live in hope.
  9. They would no doubt have received a decent wedge of cash for getting to the Scottish cup final, in gate receipts, prize money etc
  10. There is a reason there were no Scottish referees at the world cup, ie all of them are feckin brutal and not up to the standard required, can you imagine the sight of Collum or Beaton mic'ed up tyring to explain a VAR call 😂
  11. Very good, have you considered stepping up for the role of forum funny guy, GrizzlyG is considering retirement or if not he should..
  12. A spirited defence of your big club as usual, but both of them are two cheeks of the same arse, ie equally culpable of everything that is wrong with scottish football.
  13. Its a feckin embarassment for Scottish football, it would never happen with any of the ugly sisters players, the SFA are a disgrace, but the other clubs wont care so nothing will change.
  14. I can accept your point re another early Euro exit and i agree that its effect on the team, fans and the clubs standing in Europe etc would not be good, However i cant see it as a disaster, when we could potentially go on and win a trophy, get another top 6 finish etc. For me it would be a setback, dissapointing, a blip on the progress we made under JBA last year, maybe even embarassing if it was a really bad result, but its how you respond to events like that that defines you so if we do make a James Hunt of it against Havnar then judge its impact next May as its where you are at the end of the season that matters, not the start.
