It’s almost like modern day coaches have forgot about tactics like that. Prime example is Modric for Croatia. We’ve played them a couple of times recently and we just let him roam free. I think Davor could probably do a good job on McGregor. Doesn’t take skill, just terrier like determination and a focus on being right in McGregors face, wherever he goes. Give Davor that role and slide Miller back.

For me, when we pick up any points off them, it just adds to the enjoyment to hear them whine about how we should play against them and roll over or just play wide open at the back. I mean how dare we take any points off them.

Still haven’t seen any info on this. Will he be available for Sunday?

Do we know why Sparrow was missing on Saturday?

Tough week coming up Celtic(h) Dundee Utd (a) then rangers in Semi. So not sure if that schedule will affect SK’s approach to team tactics and selection. I imagine some fringe players will get some more time than usual but we really need Sparrow and Stam available to spread the load.

What’s the info on Sparrow and Stam?

Spoke to soon. 5th

We were due a stinker anyway

Utter dug meat today

This is dreadful stuff

We have 5 midfield and can’t get the fkn ball

Who went off ? Robinson and stop?

We had about 5 defenders ball watching the number 21 as he crossed it. Having said that we have 1 shot on target that I don’t even remember. No real threat up front at all.

Ref ignoring assaults on Robinson

No commentator on the stream which is unfortunate for UKnsubscribers who only get audio. 😂

Entertaining, good performance from us AND 3 points for us

Id like to see us pick up 3 points with a good performance to set us up for the Celtic game. COYW !!!!!

What’s target dates or getting Slattery, Paton and Nicholson back?

This is excellent stuff from the club AND the players. I’m sure there’s some wording in there somewhere about a future move and the club willing to be flexible to work with on any reasonable offers.

Certainly never hurts to have additional attributes although I wonder if he’s a bit constrained by the style of play and the roles given to him. The likes of Messi and Modric are great players and popping up all over the park but they are given free rein to roam. Especially with Motherwell, Miller is given a specific role to play and that his responsibility but I get your point. The more boxes he can tick in midfielder attributes the better he is going to be.

Your name looks familiar, did you used to post on here? 😂😂😂

I’m sure once he starts scoring regular for us he’ll be a starter.

Robinson hat trick?

Is there an injury list somewhere with target return dates? I forget who we are waiting on. I’d like to see us go ahead and sign Watt in the January window. I’d also like to see what we can do to extend contracts for Wilson, Miller and Ox to help keep them playing here as long as possible and also to ensure we get decent money for them when they inevitably move on.

We have a set of players who are pretty decent for the most part but have that mistake in them. We seem to be recovering from most of the mistakes but did get punished against Hibs and St Mirren. SOD getting a much harder time of it than Gordon for their mistakes and Miller sparing Ox’s blushes against Hibs with the header off the line. Overall though we do look much better organized defensively and appear comfortable for long periods in games. However, I think it’s very obvious how much better we look from attacking sense when SK changes things up. I’m not a fan of the play conservative for 60 mins then go for the win but here we are sitting in 4th spot and in a semi final so can’t really argue with SK favoring that approach. We do have players coming off the bench that make a difference when they come on which was not always the case. So despite the doom and gloom throughout the close season looks like SK knows what he is doing after all, although it will be very interesting to see how things play out when he finally has 100% of players at his disposal. I’m hoping it means we can plan with full intensity for a full game, being able to bring players off the bench to replace tiring legs. Or being able to cover for suspensions and rest players so they stay fresh and injury free. I think the outlook is very optimistic just now and hoping we can deliver some blows to the OF as well as maintain our run of good results against the other teams.
