Yup.

And written by Craig Goldthorpe! Mmm, I wonder?

Whooooosh!

Or alternatively, Killie come and try and play football allowing us to hit on the counter, which could suit our style more than the games against Dundee and Ross County who just sat in and tried to frustrate us into submission (successfully)

I'm sorry if my comments came across as an attack on Samson's ability, I was merely giving my reason's as to why Skippy pipped him and Campbell for my man of the match vote. I'm not a big fan of using statistics to support an argument, but given that Samson was the keeper when we lost something like 17 goals in 4 games and has been the keeper for the last 4 games when we have conceded 4 goals, that would suggest that the players in front of him, and the way they have been organised, was quite a large contributing factor.

Agreed, I have still to see conclusive evidence as to whether the ball crossed the line or not. The cynic in me would love to know why the BBC are making no issue about ICT's blatantly offside equaliser.

Agreed, I was merely highlighting the only mistakes (that I noticed) made by Samson during the game. As (implied in another thread) I don't think Samson is the root of all our problems

As another fan of "A certain age", I wouldn't have Howard Samaroff anywhere near my list of worst 'Well keepers, in fact, if he hadn't been immediately renamed Howard Smirnoff I would barely remember him. John Gardner, on the other hand, still causes me to wake up in a cold sweat on a regular basis. Michael Fraser and Cammy Duncan would be well up my list though

If we only vote for players who don't make mistakes there won't be too many votes cast.

I voted for MacDonald in the end but only after quite a bit of internal debate, I nearly voted for Samson as, other than one weak punch in the first half and his poor positioning for the second goal, he did little wrong and produced two or three vital saves. Campbell had a pretty decent game but had a few dodgy moments, especially in the first half, but on balance did a lot more right than he did wrong. Honorable mentions for Cadden, Frear, Moult and Ainsworth. East side linesman had a blinder.

Sampling the local product in Jamaica?

Nah, he was my PE teacher at Dalziel circa 1978, barking mad, like most PE teachers, good guy though RIP.

OK I'll play too, Kirkwood Lawson.

Moult by a country mile.

I've been impressed every time I've seen him, except today, out of position a few times and a bit panicky at the end when we were defending too deeply. That could be a criticism of the entire back 4 today admittedly.

Moult (for obvious reasons). Honourable mentions to Cadden, Clay and Bowman.

I did think of Shuggie Sproat, in my opinion a comparable standard of keeper with Rennie, but Stuart was a hero of mine so I gave him the nod as second to McRae. I will admit to having forgotten about McCloy though, put it down to age.

I remember him having to deputise for an injured keeper on a few occasions, more exact details are long lost in the mists of time.

Thanks!!!! I've been trying for years to forget that McSkimming played for us at all.

I remember him playing centre forward in one of his early appearances, I might be wrong though, I was only about 6

And was also a pretty decent goalie

Just one of many mistakes, but that Hearts game was one of the worst goalkeeping performances I ever had the misfortune to witness.

Agreed, Keith McRae, Stuart Rennie, John Gardner (only joking about that one) I think we can assume Milo is but a callow youth

Cadden, not even close. Tait, Heneghan, Chalmers and Clay impressed also.

Nope, absolutely nothing stuck to him at all today, fair enough you don't expect him to win a majority of high balls, but his inability to pass the ball three yards is incredibly frustrating. Cadden was head and shoulders above the rest today.
