Iāll also add, while he was poor today, Mackenzie can be good going forward and can create. Bringing on duk means that Mackenzie has to, for the most part, stop going forward, as you know most often duk will lose possession and the opponent counters. if Mackenzie isnāt behind duk ready to defend heās getting exposed and our left side is space for the opponent to exploit.
-
Is he though? He got an assist the other day but he plays so little I donāt see how he can be creating a lot. My recollection of him this season is him fucking up and losing possession, most often because of poor choices and bad play. We create so little as a team so while he may create, doesnt mean heās a high producer. I pushed for him to come on at half time as he tries stuff and can create, but problem is in games like today, heās not smart enough to recognize where and when to do things. Said it already, it doesnāt come off for him that much when you think about it, and when heās trying to be creative inside his own half more often than not heās giving a good opportunity to the other team.

Been thinking that for a while now. Goal then check, and most of the time Iām waiting for our goals to be disallowed anyway. Makes it a stressful experience! Takes away from the enjoyment of scoring!
-
Said it last year too, guy is dumb as rocks and nine times out of ten makes the wrong decision. His goals bailed him out last year but heās so easy to figure out and defend. You know what heās going to do, then begs for a foul every time he loses the ball. Iād take any offer and move him on, not a team player either and must be so frustrating to play with.
-
Shit weather shit pitch, doesnāt hide the fact we are shit too.
-
Hopefully get proven wrong in the last minute but bringing on duk is like playing with 10.
-
Talking to myself. What a horrible watch. Livi slightly the better team.
-
Weāre not nearly tight enough, not working hard enough. allow livi to knock it around and play to feet and weāre 5 yds off them. Allowing them to keep the ball. Canāt wait for season to be over, provided we stay upā¦
-
Iād bring on duk at HT, hoilett is slower running than me walking backwards. Nice touches but totally ineffective, duk will be direct.
-
Another shit watch so far. Weāre not bad, they are just shit too. So much stop start with fouls and injuries, livi had a decent chance with a header early on, bojan should have scored his 1v1. At this rate weāve got about 3 hrs left of the game.
-
3-1 us and an excellent performance! Miovski shinnie and duk. Since Iām predicting the highly unexpected, surprise starter Morris with 3 assists and MOTM.
-
Totally agree, Ruby and McDonald attack and win the majority, the two today backed off. Not saying Ruby and angus are great, but at least they are aggressive and attack the ball. Very soft in the middle today. At 6ā1āā both should be much stronger, and especially when playing in Scotland, a central defender needs to be dominating in the air. Both today seemed to back away and county were left with space infront of our defense, plus I donāt recall gartenmann winning a header, he seems to hesitate plus lets the ball bounce. Thankfully we werenāt punished but plenty of teams would have damaged us there. These two cannot be long term solutions for us, just not good enough.
-
Your last sentence. The whole squad is based on two up top with the duk of last year playing. Zero plan B and thatās why we are here today. Duk is our super sub, although any decent money offered and heās away.
-
Why? We have won two in a row but today was a shit watch. I know winning is all that matters right now but we were very lucky to get three points, could easily have lost, what the fuck have we been doing the last two weeks to produce that?? saying this, who knows what Robson, warnock, or leven could have done with a balanced squad?? quite happy to see the back of gartenmann unless heās a cheap signing. I think heās very poor in the air and a bang average player. We really need a dominating ball winning central defender and thatās not gartenmann or Jensen, weak middle partnership.
-
Funny what happens when we actually pass the ball.
-
What a shit watch, county the better team and the same pish in the second half that we saw in the majority of the first. Not even enthusiastic about watching, zero enjoyment.
-
Weāre awful in the air in central defense, look timid and unsure, having 3 midgets in center mid doesnāt help them either. Weāve been a little better since their goal, but not close to the Motherwell performance.
-
Shit so far, whereās the passing from the Motherwell game? Back to long ball possession lost shit.
-
Tough to predict but Iām going for 2-0, another shutout with effort and commitment. miovski x 2
-
I like that thereās no fucking around with squad rotation, cooper for porteous and dykes for shankland . Fair swap, jambos will be crying but dykes has done pretty well for Scotland.
-
That would be autocorrect, āthey can speculateā¦ā no clue if heās still in the running. Weāre all frustrated with the season and for the most part the last 3 years, and weāre impatiently wanting a resolution to the situation, but unless you are directly involved then it is pretty much speculation. I donāt know the inner workings of signing a manager or director of coaching, donāt know who we have spoken to, the process etc. Iāll judge when we appoint, harshly if itās lambert, John Hughes, Billy Davies etc. weāre all armchair fans who think we know more than we do. I think many of us are extremely naive when it comes to coaching, managing, and running a footballing business. Itās a very unique situation. it takes even more time given how our last couple of months have gone, we had an audit and thatās a process hence we havenāt hired someone. I dont think the length of time is a shit show (although in hindsight warnock was.) Iām also sure most potential targets are wanting to know if we are relegated or qualifying for Europe for example. Due to the public nature we all have an opinion but thatās just that, but itās a slow process.
-
It appears a shit show from the outside but do we really know? We can speculate but are we lining up a manager? Technical Director? Both at the same time? One or both under contract? Had to wait until they were out of a cup, Europe, safe from relegation etcā¦. All takes time. again, it looks like a shit show but we can only speculate. Much like the media appear to have no fucking clue and havenāt identified who we have narrowed it down to. They canāt speculate jimmy thelin has ruled himself out but if they knew that then surely theyād tell us who was still in the running?
-
Easy to say but if Christie and shankland score itās a very different game. Thought we played very well in parts, as much as itās a 4-0 gubbing, positives to take.
-
Well that didnāt go so well after all.
-
Geez. We shouldnāt be losing this game..
