Is today the day we put the final nail in Baldemort’s coffin? If so, I think the zombies would probably thank us. -

I’d start Maswanhise and task him with constantly running at and through their defence from kick-off. Rattle them early and hope our striker(s) can feed off scraps. If we let them start well and take control, we’ve got no chance. That’s why we need to start fast and aggressive to not let them dominate possession. This will get their fans on their backs early, which is exactly what we need. It’s in our hands to take the initiative and win this game. But, if we start with Robinson up top alone, we might as well all go home early. -
Brilliant result and just what we needed in advance of Sunday.
-
That should be the case, but I fear Kettlewell will start with Robinson up top alone again.
-
Scottish football refereeing is the last place you’ll find consistency.
-
Not signing a fit and able Spittal replacement to service our mixed bag of strikers continues to be an issue. However, we don’t need attacking midfielders when teams gift us goals like that.
-
If Kettlewell sets us up to take the game to Rangers and attack, I'll eat my hat, but the guy suffers from the problems of every other over promoted donkey manager in this league and will likely try to set us up to not lose, and then lose. Fair play to Aberdeen for sourcing and securing a manager with some talent, who's not afraid to take it to the Old Firm. It's refreshing to see that in this league.
-
Based on my opinion which I further explained. Does that satisfy you?
-
Going into the semi-final following 3 defeats on the bounce won’t be helpful, so that’s why I think tonight is a must-not-lose game.

I think that whatever harebrained formation he sets out tonight against Dundee United will give us a likely indication of how he plans to approach the Rangers game. With that said, I can forgive whatever he tries tonight (if it fails) so long as it helps him figure out what’s needed for Sunday. Although I would suggest that the Celtic game gave him that information. -
Stama may be decent, but the way he’s mostly been deployed by Kettlewell so far has rendered him ineffective as a striker. It seems to me that he needs to play as part of a front 2 or 3.
-
Weak defending and dogshit tactics cost us today. We need a big performance away to Dundee Utd now, otherwise we’re going into the semi-final on a complete downward spiral.
-
Weak defending for both goals. We make it too easy for them.
-
The evidence suggests that he couldn’t manage himself out of a cardboard box. What’s more vexing is the fact that someone somewhere in the Club thought that the credentials of a retired police officer matched those required to undertake the role of safety AND facilities manager at a top flight football club. The former I can just about understand but not the latter. It appears that he’s actively costing the Club more money than necessary, due to incompetence, at the same time as doing his best to play the role of pretendy policeman as he seeks to vilify and piss off paying fans.
-
He's either sick or his ACL exploded into 300 pieces during training and after Kettlewll's pre-match conference. Knowing our luck, it's likely the latter. Anyone in the know?
-
It’s almost like clockwork. Keep on being you.
-
We know that he'll respond by starting with a similar line-up and system because he's a stubborn donkey who continually rides his luck.
-
Two spot on analyses. Poor recruitment and amateur tactics remain the issues, although, for what it’s worth, I don’t think we’ll see another 15 game winless run this season. We have improved, slightly.
-
It appears we likely missed our captain driving and organising us today.
-
It seems like the outcome of not signing a proper replacement for Spittal other than a few chocolate-legged jobbers is still causing us bother. Let’s see what the wingers can do now.
-
His next job will be with whatever club that wee rodent Si Ferry is at.

It’s probably a fair point to suggest that those WS members with a monthly direct debit are also season ticket holders. A real challenge for the WS is how it (re)engages those members who no longer financially contribute but regularly attend games. EDIT. I forgot to add that there are plenty of WS members who financially contribute but, for whatever reason, don’t have a season ticket or regularly attend.
