Aye. And the youth set-up is Willie Miller's overall responsibility! Who have they got in the semi?

Is it about your leg?

Mackie and Lovell are both early doubts for next week's cup quarter final.

Sounds like we played well and should have killed it off in the first half. Second penalty in a row that our keeper has saved it but the penalty taker was first to the rebound!

Who do we blame for missing the three one-on-ones with the keeper seeing as Mackie ain't on the pitch? I think we can do this!!! Mon the Dons!

Can't see us winning this at all but stranger things have happened.

If I understand the above correctly, you are suggesting that we have been starting the same 11 every week? Chance would be a fine thing!

I've just removed the post to start a new thread...

Arsenal?

Pretty sure this has happened before too. Calderwood should do the same. I'm convinced his comments get misrepresented. The article last week about Scott Wilson was a disgrace. Calderwood never even mentioned Wilson but the EE linked us with him anyway!

Wonder what Lovell would get if he stays.

Aye, their albums have improved each time. Hold On is a stormer!

I think we miss him, but he always seems to be rushed back, and then injured a few weeks later.

*puts tin hat on* Sick fed up of Mackie getting boo'd. Doesn't matter what anybody thinks of his abilities, he's clearly low on confidence and booing him is hardly going to help. Its not his fault he's getting a game. What Zander doesn't realise is that folk were cheering because he was going off. Cretins in my opinion.

Not quite sure what to make of him. He has no pace for a winger, but he put in a brilliant cross at 1-1 which Nicholson should have scored with from about 5 yards out.

Good post. I would definitely keep the back 5 for Saturday but the rest of the positions could be up for debate, apart from Nicholson.

Mackie was guilty of some awful play and should have scored at least one, but what did Lovell do all game? I don't remember him doing anything of note at all, and he certainly didn't get himself into any scoring opportunities, but he's treated like some sort of god. Granted our "strikers" were not helped by too many high balls which neither of them are capable of holding up. EDIT: For those of you that weren't at the game, the substitution of Mackie was greeted with huge cheers, but the substitution of Lovell was greeted by huge boos. Unfair in my opinion.

I'll quite happily agree to disagree but I thought he spent most of the game not tracking back and shirking out of challenges and hardly doing anything positive. The amount of times he let his man run past him without chasing back in the first half was shocking.

I definitely think our UEFA cup run will have turned heads down south. We are no longer the big team we used to be, and have probably been unheard of by many for quite some time. This season has put our name back up there in Europe, but our SPL form is atrocious.

Just in. The game itself was grimmer than visiting Dachau last week. But we should have won, and had quite a few chances. Mackie and Nicholson should have scored. Sadly Mackie had a complete nightmare - only Maguire had a worst game. But why oh why did we suddenly go 1 up front? Motherwell came back into it at that stage and scored. God knows what Diamond was playing at with the penalty, a very stupid mistake. Best players tonight were Nicholson, Soutar, Diamond (before his lunge) and Maybury. The rest were either average or poor. So disappointed we didn't take 3 points, but suddenly we're not too far from the top 6 at all.

From a Chinese by any chance?

Spot on. Until we have our players as good enough as Walker and Aluko, then I don't have a problem with loan deals.
