Maybe instead of training off the ball, we should try some drills when we have it.

As expected we have been brutal, and gifted the goals and points. 

Loyality to underperforming players will cost a manager his job. 

His negative tactics will cost him his job nothing else.

To go 50,60 mins with next to no attacking football no shots on goal week in week out is beyond unacceptable.

If the guy had half a brain, he’d have switched to a back four a long time ago, but we all know he’s wedded to the back five.

He also knows he can survive a 15 game winless run, so there is no pressure on him to change his negative approach to games.

However, if we get put out the cup next week, I fully expect the fans to turn on him, which will be the beginning of the end.

1st goal is offside, fuck knows why Ewan Wilson is trying to do no touch dribbling as the last man for the second , then why SOD pulls at him when the balls floated straight into the GKs hand only god knows.

If we don't give away 3 poor goals then there's a good chance we win that considering there was next to nothing in the game,

Good to see Slattery back and a good FK from him and thought Andrews wasn't bad either.

Our overall play is absolutely stinking.

Unless our actual game plan is to simply concede possession and hoof it 70 odd yards when we do get the ball then I have absolutely no idea what we’re trying to do? Maybe someone else does but I can’t see what we’re hoping to achieve with this.

Odonnell, Wilson and Halliday need dropped for the next game.

Halliday. Too much strutting around. Poor pass helped gift first goal

Wilson. Lost and WTF was he doing to gift second goal

O’Donnell. WTF is he doing giving away needless penalty. Gift number 3

How the fk is that a red card? Clear foul, no violent conduct or excessive force. stick on yellow but still defender between attacker and goal

Aye we should have switched to a back 4,we don't have the wing backs to play 352,they offer very little going forward, probably on kettlewells instructions though.we don't have one forward that is capable of mixing it was the opposing defenders but yet we play a long ball game.we have next to nothing in midfield,I thought andrews was decent today so we're relying on yet another 18 year old in there,it's simply not good enough.

Likeable guy but O’Donnell shouldn’t be starting games anymore. Wilson not much better on other side.

Inexcusable to concede the penalty so soon after getting back in to the game. Makes a bit of difference having ball playing midfielders that want to pass the ball forwards on the park in the second half. Andrews and slattery look like they could form a decent partnership while miller is out. Kettlewell will likely continue to play Halliday however.

jack vale is our best option up top just now and he goes and stupidly gets sent off. Now we need to watch Tony watt  stink the place out for at least another two games.

Plan A 5-3-2

Plan B 5-3-2

Plan C 5-3-2

And this from someone who has given him plenty of backing but it feels like he believes he is totally safe so doesn't matter what he does.  Think you might find Stuart there are a lot of fans paying good money to Watch you set us up terribly.  Yes Miller and stama injured doesn't help but we have quality but not being utilised

League position is still reasonable . Hard to predict where we’ll end up 5-9th all possible 

Recent form is a concern . We’ve had 13 games November since November . Won 4, scored 14 , conceded 26 .

Given we’re now in the habit of 2-3 shots on target per game we need to bring in some quality and attack minded players
