  1. He's really upped his game for sure.
  2. To be fair I only caught the second half. He just seems to always slow the game or make the wrong decision around the edge of the box. That charge into the box, he has no left foot, no plan to try and cross it or cut back. He's basically running hoping to go down, which is pretty much his whole game these days. He used to do so much more.
  3. Thought the tempo was really good. Penalty was soft but Ojo should've moved the ball before he gave it away. I've never been a big mcgeoch fan but he was excellent tonight, hates rolled back the years and deano kept on top of Tav brilliantly. Only slight blip for me was fergie. He looks like he needs time out. Plenty of energy but no creativity or bravery when he gets into a good position. How many free kicks can he be allowed to hit into walls this season?
  4. We've played a lot better and lost this season. Pleased for glass and crossing fingers that we have some bodies back for next week.
  5. I'm not sure there are many players more frustrating than hedges. He makes some awful decisions in great positions.
  6. If we didn't have bad luck, we'd have none. Watkins making things a bit better up front though.
  7. Longstaff must be horrible in training if he can't push fergie out of this team. He's done nothing but commit fouls and play for fouls.
  8. Hunners of midfielders running all over the place. We had that last week and they were all shite. Pleased Watkins is in as he looked good last week Fergie and hedges for me were very poor and those on the sidelines must wonder what it takes to get a run.
  9. I thought he stepped up and played the captain's role, looking after his team mates. The tackle, he clearly won. Other than that he only told people to be quiet or deal with him.
  10. Team have no bottle. Fergie, brown, hedges, Ojo, hayes. Where were they. Charlie Adam ran the show.
  11. Loved Gallagher's attitude tonight. Taking not shit. An attitude we've not seen since Bisconti left
  12. Terrible decision from hedges. Should've took on the shot. Tried the world cup pass and they break away to score.
  13. Well that was shit. I've never really got the hype around fergie but he's awful today. Slows the game down every time he gets on the ball. Decision making is lousy. Hedges and Ojo also bring very little. At least the jet creates the odd chance. Glad looks to have shit the bed and moved away from his football philosophy to get the win and it shows in our awful forward play around the box.
  14. My two Bob from today. Too tired after the early trip to look earlier. Started under the cosh and slowly came into the game. Kyogo had fantastic movement and instinct. I put the goal more down to his sharpness than our marking. Then we started to turn up. We seemed split across both sides of the pitch with nobody holding the middle of the pitch. Putting them under real pressure before half time and with more composure around the box. Should've gone in even. Second half. Midfielders turned up. Brown and Ferguson started to win it in there and after our goal there only looked one winner. We had our chances and had Hayes or Samuels had a bit better decision making, should've killed the game. Then fucking Rogic came off the bench to do what he does to us every fucking time. He's crap all season and always turns up to bury us. Quality of the play at the 2nd can't be argued although I think that had brown still been on, this may have been dealt with before Rogic could turn on the edge of the box. Not hitting the panic button yet. Fingers crossed for a couple of goals at Dundee. Once the three points come I think we're more than capable of climbing the table by the year ended
  15. Incredibly jenks has now managed to contribute a minus effort
  16. Still waiting for jenks to look like a player.
  17. The kick out was poor. His effort at the near post was equally poor.
  18. I think we've clearly dominated a lot more of the ball than we did previously and I'm sure the stats reflect this. ( Although maybe not last week ) We just can't hit a barn door or defend for 90 mins. Someone mentioned forcing players into a shape and I agree. When the full backs were playing at the start of the season, they had freedom and created chances. Now cramming in an extra midfielder means that they have less space to move in.
  19. I'm optimistic that at some point the goals will come back. We now have too many options for it not to happen. On Gallagher, I expected better but mcrorie had been a bombscare back there . I thought bates made a difference and if Gallagher and bates play together, we might see something more composed at the back. Clearly doesn't want to drop Ross but he doesn't know where to put him. It's maybe time more pressure was put on fergie, ojo and brown by Ross and Matty. All that said. I think that we'll have a 3-1 thriller.
  20. Get Jet on now. Put jenks in the sea and try to get one back before half time.
  21. Defending is fucking awful. Mcrorie awful there.
  22. Jenks hasn't got me convinced at all. Could do with Ramirez finding his touch again.
  23. Hearts are shite. We've let them bully us. Brown still to turn up today.
  24. Magic, I'll give it a go
  25. Are there any pubs near forres or Elgin likely to be showing this? Or do I have to pay up and watch it on my phone ?
