  1. There was no urgency from Sutton and his attempt when Erwin put him clear in the box was shocking - do we need a target man, could Erwin be that man? If Moore was our furthest forward player we would have to change the way we played. Maybe not a bad thing.

    Dundee Utd

    Went for Lee, it's a shame all his good work was outside the box, needs a bit of composure inside
  3. I'm a big critic of McManus but thought he put in a shift today, Simon Ramsden was like a man possessed at times, seemed to be up for it and took his goal well. Erwin was terrific outside the box, lack of composure in it. Pearson showed glimpses of what could be. Luke Watt was assured at left back and should get a run. Kerr looked like he fitted in his natural position. Sutton showed his limitations. Moore had a good energy when he came on. A lot more plusses than recent weeks
  4. Partially right, Ainsworth involved in the goal, I think 20 minutes is his limit nowadays
  5. Thomas and Ainsworth off the bench in the last 20 to run them ragged - might get a consolation goal

    Hughie Ferguson

    That cup final goal sounds far too familiar as we head back up to Dundee today
  7. If we are counting non-playing roles then Wullie P and Stevie Kirk came back

    Relegation

    There are 16 he can ostracise out the door in the summer
  9. Watched the highlights, McManus was the closest man for each goal, unfortunately not very close. The 4th probably wasn't his fault though.
  10. The team in the opening post produced one of the worst displays I have seen before this season, masked by 90 seconds of ecstacy

    Celtic

    Wasn't there so won't vote, usually get a feel for the candidates from the comments of folk who were there or saw it on-line, but this time, nothing
  12. Must admit, I had to look it up. And I did well at the school, went to Uni and everything.

    Relegation

    I wouldn't mind a season down in the Championship but I would have a real concern for the future if it stretched to two
  14. But it will reduce my blood pressure/frustration levels not to see an ex-international stroll about the pitch not caring about winning or losing.
  15. Only a wonder strike beat us up there earlier this season - any high ball into the box will do it on Saturday
  16. He said he has drilled it into players to not give their man space in the box, they are either deaf or don't care
  17. Who was it that we had to throw in at centre defence a few years ago, possibly against Aberdeen and we got a result. Was it Page and Cummins. Neither of them great but they put the effort in and we got a result.
  18. He could remove McManus from the defence, replace him with Kerr who is no better but a bit of a trier
  19. If you look back at the last few matches our foul count is in low single figures, in another year I would be pleased about that but just now it seems to show a lack of heart
  20. I will give the manager until into September
  21. Watch us go in the second half, Celtic will lose interest

    Injuries

    Folk used to shoot themselves in the foot to get out of the firing line, you have to wonder?
  23. Just had a flashback and remembered the price of a bovril, £2.20! What was that about?
