I would say to anyone that’s against var in Scottish football, what’s the alternative ? Carry on as we are with the truly dreadful standard of decision making we have now ? Everyone just shutting up and accepting the refs will make awful mistakes game after game ? One or two refs up here are seen as a joke, you only have to sit around others rather than just watch games on tv to hear the comments. If I honestly thought standards could start to improve I would be fine without it, does anyone honestly think that could happen ?
The decisions now are a disaster in game after game, look at the blatent pen not given which would have gone to Var. I don’t like the way it breaks up the flow of a game but it’s been shown without doubt to get the vast majority of decisions correct. There will always be cases of the wrong call still being made but my god it’s got to be better than the shambles in Scottish football that we have now. I personally don’t care about the debate on the old firm and their influence, what’s important is improving the level of overall refereeing decisions.
We’re starting to get pretty consistent at not winning, that’s one win in five now with three very tough games coming up. The football has certainly improved but it’s important to start getting more points on the board even if it’s playing hoofball at times.
I thought so. I’m personally not big on the monarchy but I don’t have a problem with what’s happening. We now live in the world of social media where keyboard Warriors rule, Where there is often seen as being more value in insulting others than showing a little kindness. We will see much of what’s best in people over the next few days, hopefully we don’t see too much of the worst.
I doubt any new manager is going to look at his stats over the last four years and be desperate to take him back. Regardless of who’s in charge I would be amazed if he’s not a free agent in the summer.
Looking at the way we are playing now what’s obvious is Alexander actually signed some good players. Goss, Slattery, Tierney, Spittal, McGinn, for starters, he just refused to let them play.
What I would say is it’s brought a real feel good factor to the club, look at the response on Twitter, the supporters love the guy. That alone actually gives the whole club a lift and as much as I have reservations you can’t beat that feeling.
Could have been better, could have been worse, we look to have a decent left back at last and have added another two useful additions on top. The main worry for me at the moment is up front, Van Veen will miss game time and we have nobody to replace him ( I will believe the Moult rumours when we see him in the stadium but not the right option anyway if true). So maybe free agents it is.
