Well Up For It! Posted April 30, 2015 Report Share Posted April 30, 2015 Just finished listening there, another good listen. While I really enjoy when guest are on and changing up the topics of discussion, was good to hear more in depth chat on our current situation. Completely agree with what Jay was saying regarding this "negative mentality". I still for the life of me can't comprehend what has happened to take us from 2nd to 2nd bottom with roughly the same squad as last year?! It's embarrassing and clearly points to an issue with the players confidence. However, do think Barraclough has more than the 20% blame to answer for as he has not helped himself with a few poor signings, strange tactical decisions and a perceived lack of the required ruthlessness required to give the under performing players the proper kick up the arse they require. I do agree that we are fitter and more creative, but counts for little with the levels of inconsistency and lack of cutting edge. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yabba's Turd Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 A couple of points guys, the accies performance wasn't exactly dreadful, the result was. Lawless would have been a gamble to re-sign at the time as it looked like he wasn't medically fit to continue playing fitba, a mis-diagnosis? perhaps but there were genuine reasons for concern over his fitness, Reckon if that didn't flag up we'd have kept him.Good chat again though...

AndyRoss Posted May 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 I'd put Accies a few weeks back right up there with our poorest performances this seasons, there was a real lack of desire given the huge importance & the towel was thrown in when we went 2-0 down. Wasn't aware of the Lawless injury chat, he was certainly the only real example I could think of in regards to instances that we made the wrong call.

Yabba's Turd Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 In hindsight Lawless looks like the wrong call it would have been a gamble at the time, but I would say his move was sideways rather than up, as for accies, we'll agree to disagree here, a hugely frustrating night and our midfield had lost it's legs by the time we were trying to chase the game.

Jay Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 In hindsight Lawless looks like the wrong call it would have been a gamble at the time, but I would say his move was sideways rather than up, as for accies, we'll agree to disagree here, a hugely frustrating night and our midfield had lost it's legs by the time we were trying to chase the game. Both Accies and Thistle were two of the most unacceptable performances for me this season. We have played worse in other matches in terms of chances created etc, however the way in which we completely folded in both games after failing to get an early goal was unreal. Once we went behind in both matches we turned into a team of cowards. For me, if you're just not good enough ability wise as a team then, as disappointing as any defeat is, it's still an acceptable way to lose a football match. However, chucking any determination, desire and bravery once it looks like you're not going to score first is completely unacceptable and both the Thistle and Accies games dropped into that category for me. That was the point I tried to make on the podcast but given I was incredibly hungover and possibly still a little bit drunk when we recorded it, I'm not entirely sure how it sounded! As for Lawless, I don't remember the chat about it being a gamble but I do remember being disappointed when we released him given he'd looked a real prospect at the time. Regardless though, any chat about whether or not we should have kept a player is going to be based almost entirely on hindsight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al B Posted May 12, 2015 Report Share Posted May 12, 2015 As far as I was aware, Lawless was offered a new to deal to be financed by Jamie Murphy's move to Blackpool, and then Murph turned the move down, which then had the knock on effect on the Lawless offer.

AndyRoss Posted May 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 13, 2015 Fair bit happening with the podcast just now. We've lined up five former-player guests over the summer, we're able to confirm four of them - Sieb Dijkstra, Rob McKinnon, Jim Paterson and Shaun Teale. Matt Johnstone (FatCalf) joins us next Monday and plans are set for the following week in the event we avoid or end up in the play-off.

Haggischomper Posted May 18, 2015 Report Share Posted May 18, 2015 Enjoyed that one. Many a hard truth spoken there by all 3 and it was good to finally get the views this week of folk capable of taking a step back and looking at the bigger picture rather than just the (understandable) knee jerk reactions of many. I actually feel better now for listening to it. Thanks for your thoughts guys, very therapeutic! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
