Brilliant goal. Stama actually getting some ball in the box makes a hell of a difference !!!!

We're second to everything in midfield.

Don't think anyone claimed for it, did they ?

Well, that was quick !

Pretty much picks itself really. Glad to see kaleta in instead of Tavares.

How many managers have left top division clubs in Scotland in the last 20 years for any other reason than failure ? I know there are few exceptions, but in general, managers get fired or 'leave by mutual consent' 95% of the time. When I started going to games regularly, Willie McLean was in charge. he created a team that challenged the old firm regularly in matches, got conned out of a semi final win over the h**s and is largely lauded as the best team never to win a trophy. He was still sacked a couple of years later for a poor results, as have most of our managers since. It's the same for every other club. 90% of managers ultimately fail and get the sack.

I was wondering about this too. Tavares ahead of Kaleta being the obvious one. Remember when Biereth arrived here (with a slight injury, and after his injury sustained here at St Mirren), we were told that Arsenal physio staff dictated down to the minute literally, how much ha was allowed to play. Possibly Kaleta has a niggle and Wolves have dictated his minutes. Not in the know or anything, but it is a similar situation. If we're currently stuck for a RWB though, that doesn't explain away why Koutrumbis (or what ever his name is) is't getting a sniff of a start.

I would expect DU would be keen to get him off their wage bill. Question is, will Tony see sense and sign for us or revert to previous and end up in the Khazakstan Premier Leage on 10K a week ?

We're second, and sometimes third, to everything !

I've supported kettlewell through all the bad periods. Blaney for Balmer I understand (although I'm not sure there's that much to choose between them), but this Tavares thing has me baffled. Is Taveres playing right midfield and either Seddon or Wilson is playing on the wrong side, or is Tavares a right wing back with either Seddon or Wilson (i'd expect) in midfield ?

I missed the game up to the point Stama scored. I really thought the game should have been stopped for the head knock before their second goal and it looks like half the team did too. After that, the wheels came off for 10 mins or so. I thought other than that 10 min period we looked ok. Watt and Stam looked decent together. Maybe a more 'midfieldery' midfielder than Tavares and we'd have competed better. The 10 mins after their second killed it as a contest though. I think the biggest miss at the moment is McGinn.

Well, thats fucked it.....

Game should have been stopped there surely ?????

Awful defending......

That bloody idiot Kettlewell can't even organise the weather for a big game. It's not as if he didn't know this game was coming up. It's stupid mistakes like this that prove he's not going to have long left in this job. Ooot his depth !
