MJC Posted January 10 Report Share Posted January 10 We’ve got a Scottish Cup tie against Alloa before this one. That one is equally as important for us as a Cup run would be hugely beneficial to the club and the support. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its about time we had a former player that loved getting one over on their old club! Seems to happen to us all the time! Connor Sammon and PJ Morrison just being the latest!

wellfan Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 Bair will remain ineffective if we don't play to his strengths. We should keep it simple by playing the ball to his feet while he moves towards the goal. Given he was a solo striker yesterday, you could see he was a bit isolated, and you could tell he was getting frustrated with all the high balls to his chest and head. That aside, he still needs to do better and get himself into better positions to receive the good crosses into the box. Biereth would've scored a few of those yesterday.

Theo did the best he could yesterday in the circumstances. There were times where the gap between him and the nearest support was about 30 yards. Thats just no good when your job is to hold it up and bring others into play. He also doesnt have the natural strikers instinct to gamble on the ball arriving in good areas. Some of Gents crosses were just begging to be knocked in the net. Its no criticism of the big man. We know what he is and what he isnt. He is a decent back up steiker at our level probably best suited in a 2. As you say, play to his strengths. Hopefully have someone in to play alongside him for St Johnstone.

Hopefully have someone in to play alongside him for St Johnstone. Bair is brutal, he has no positionional sense at all, nothing sticks to him so he was unable to hold the ball up and play others in. He ran about like a headless chicken and contributed feck all game, as was mentioned earlier on the few occasions when we got the ball into the box he was nowhere to be seen, a Biereth or a KVV would have probably scored. Yes he's scored a few goals in recent weeks but the simple fact is he never was and never will be premiership level and its a damming indictment of the problems we have that he was the first choice striker yesterday. Unless SK gets a couple of strikers in this window we are heading for trouble as I can't see where our goals will come from. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllyMax Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 16-0 to St Johnstone. We've got shite players and a shite manager and they've got a great manager and even better players. They've also never signed a player who didn't work out. Heavy defeat followed by a special SFA meeting where they make the decision to relegate us immediately after the game. Either that or we might win.... Or maybe draw. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelboy Posted January 23 Report Share Posted January 23 Whether he plays Butcher or Mugabi is the big question. At Hibs we only had 30% posession but only conceded three shots on target which suggests that we defended quite well. Against Alloa Butcher made Connor Sammon look like Haaland at their goal. The last time we played in Perth we conceded two headers from corners on the 6 yard line. He's obviously going to start Butcher. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJC Posted January 24 Report Share Posted January 24 We could do with St.Johnstone losing to Aberdeen tonight too. I know that that would see Aberdeen pull further away from us but let’s face it, that was always going to happen. St.Johnstone though will likely remain in the mix with us, Ross County and Livingston until the end of the season. As for Saturday I can only see us getting a draw at best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
