He’s got to score that, no defending a miss like that. That said he is still by far and away our best and only serious goal threat and if we lose him for any period to injury then we might as well start looking forward to Friday night games on BBC Scotland next season.
Well the plus point is we didn’t get beat but we should have won that imo and other results now see us joint second bottom. Next Sunday against Hibs is now must win, no ifs and not buts, it’s must win.
This has all the makings of a hard slog and an utter shitfest but if we are to avoid relegation then games like these are the types we need to win or at the very least not lose.
Yeah to be honest I’m not saying that we should sign Leigh Griffiths now, more that if there was a situation where he was fit enough to play and available to us then his off-field baggage shouldn’t be a deal breaker to us as a club.
Considering we as a club have made a big effort to show support for mental health awareness up to and including bringing out a new strip especially dedicated to helping charities which support it, then giving a chance to a player who has had his own ‘demons’ perhaps should see him fit into our image.
Everyone will have their own view on this based on age/when they started supporting the club.
For me in my time it’s Tommy Coyne. A brilliant forward and an absolute class act of a player and we’ve never had anyone like that since.
We’ve not had any real leaders since Hartley, Tait and to an extent Gallagher left. There’s not one player at the club who you would look at as being the obvious captain.
