It's shinnie playing in the hole?

All the optimism is gone. We seem to have a squad who only play under a new manager bounce then collapse. Time our captain was replaced by someone with drive he's overseen multiple disasters now and is clearly unable to turn a team around. McGrath is quite comfortable playing at the bottom of the league ( he's used to it) and that's his level. Nice touches, little effect on a game. Flatters to deceive. Those being two of our middle three, is it any surprise were seeing mediocrity and not dominating? Keskinen is a headless chicken, I'd be gutted sitting on a bench watching him run into people. All round disappointing again. Mentally fragile team and despite the miracle start, Jimmy will come under pressure soon if any January changes don't improve form.

United deserved that. We're toothless and we have a weak streak through this team. Imagine losing to Goodwin. Jimmy has a big few weeks. Can he be ruthless and add backbone to this squad because that's what's missing

We're far too deep and laboured trying to play forward. Need to be getting that ball up to the wingers a damn sight faster. Ps McGrath is a total fraud. Tackles like an under 10s girl. Just doesn't have it in him to roll the sleeves up but amazingly always seems to stay on the pitch

Is mitov our play maker now?

McGrath anonymous, shinnie just isn't up to the physical games and this was always going to be one. Nilsen very poor today and we look to have no real plan other than to get it in a channel and run with it. Really poor. Changes are needed . We need to up our physicality and impose ourselves on games because the tactics have been found out.

Aye he should've been out with the line.

Had our chances. 4 on target each. Doohan did well Only criticism is that they just seemed a bit physically stronger in the tackle. I though Nilsen was a force in there again.

Actually thought doohan looked comfortable and was quick off his line when needed ( the goal was a bit of a fluke with a deflected cross then it comes off Devlin from the header) Mcgarry played ok until going off.

That was a rough second half. Again, struggling to get a foot on the ball up the pitch. Thought despite a couple of slack passes Nilsen was everywhere winning the ball. Shady was outstanding for the first half and Milne was excellent. The games changers on the bench struggled to get into it though. Not a bad result at tynecastle I'd still question playing McGrath wide instead of someone that can get past their man. Especially the way we spray it wide early. I think it's him or Clarkson, not both.

Had a few let offs there. Great goal from ester, although Morris must take a lot of that credit. Centre halves and the keeper are an issue. Don't seem to know who is doing what. I know Mitov is a great shot stopper but he's quite indecisive when the ball is in the box and the centre halves don't seem to know what to expect. All young but definitely could use some work

Devlin very lucky there

Surely we brought a nisbet in to get in front of the centre half. Both strikers were pointless today.

Most dangerous team won. Passengers everywhere. Now the real work has to start. No threat from us at all today. Sick of watching us try to cut the ball back instead of firing it across the face. Another game where the physicality was questioned.

Make that two. Shady haS been really good TBF

I'm not sure Clarkson, McGrath and Shayden have enough bite for me. All nice to haves when you're winning but not sleeves up and win players on a shitty winter afternoon in paisley We can carry one but not three.

, never a red. Not even yellow for me. Dives in but gets the ball and misses Morris

The team had been fantastic but make no mistake the occasion got to them. It was panic stations at the back for most of that game.

Bottle crashed. Simple as that. Mitov should come for the first and causes mayhem for the second. His indecision is becoming an issue for me. Topi offered nothing again and could do with some bench time. We were weak in the tackle all game and were taught a lesson in movement and closing down. Celtic were ruthless but we made it easy. In 46 years I've never left any game early but tonight I did . Gutter!!

In Driving in after son finishes his shift Sth stand Driving to an 18th birthday / Halloween party 3-2 dons because why not Duk, ester and keskinen to finally come of age with a winner.

I can't remember who suggested it earlier in the season but surely Hooked on a thelin, I've started believing, the dons can win the league has to be a chant now

One of the best displays against them in years. Better team by a mile. Deserved to win by more. We're going through a spell to remember people.

Should be three up. Ref is a fucking disgrace. That tackle on sokler wipes him out and the ball touches the defender as ester lifts it past him. OUTRAGEOUS!! McGraths arse crashed and I've got a horrible feeling that we are going to let them into this.

The brilliant thing about this season so far is that I've always felt that we haven't quite clicked yet. When we do it'll be epic. Great result on a wet horrible night. Good teams win when they don't play well and we're getting good at it . Bring on the currants!!

Topi literally just running into folk like he's in the playground in that half. On top but not getting the best out of the pace so far. McGrath sitting too deep and facing the pass. Needs to get on the turn in the gap if we're going to utilise sokler No real grumbles except for the decision making at times
