Jimmy's team travel to the Home of the Set Fare Arena in Livingston for a Sunday game at 3 pm.

Livi are bottom of the league and desperate for a win. I don't think they'll get one, but neither will we. I fancy a boring 0-0 draw.

Maybe even the game to yank karlsson and stick nisbet up top/at 10 with lazetic.

Absolutely brutal eye bleeding stuff from us.

Contemplating binning the second half and heading across to the shopping centre to look for the wife's Xmas present

We're outnumbered in midfield. At times we pick it up deep and are asking our two midfields to pick passes through a ruck of yellow shirts, which is why we're giving it away so much.

Livingston at times are pushing players forward and playing three strikers against our back three, which should mean there's gaps to counter, but we can't even get that going.

We're playing two wing backs but they're so deep they're barely in the game. 
 

Big half-time from Thelin. If he changes a few personnel but sticks with the same system, it'll be more of the same.

I'd put Devlin or Milne into midfield alongside Nilsen and Aouchiche, move Armstrong more central and play two up front.

It's Cammy Smith

With our second half history I wouldn't hold out much hope for the second half. This team though, have the ability to grind out a result despite having no possession, no shots on target and zero entertainment value so who knows.

missed the half time whistle , did the fans there express their level of enjoyment

Yes loudly 

Well absolutely no surprise there.

Defence has been solid - so far.

we’ve had a couple of decent counter attacks, but as usual the execution in the final third completely lacking.

Outside that, second best everywhere.

Lazetic absolutely anonymous. Watch their Yenghi son, thats what you’re supposed to be doing ffs.

Yet another 45 minutes with not one shot on target - seriously how can Thelin watch this same movie week after week and do absolutely nothing about it.

We are just a very poorly constructed and coached football team, that’s pretty much the long and the short of it.

But hey, maybe this is the week we turn it on in the second half…

Nice of the rest of the league to hang around and wait on us to catch up, like the fat kid on the shit bike - if we win we will be back to 5 points off 3rd with a game in hand over most of the teams above us.

 

 

 

 

Not that this will happen, judging by our play so far.

Ah well,5 subs on 80 mins it is....

We lose every long ball. And go long ball a lot.

Seriously. A win would certainly help!

So would an effort on goal

No clue what shinnie offers now. Gets burned for pace every time at the back, and doesn’t have the pace to attack. Getting caught regularly on both instances.

why aren’t we subbing?

Nilsen, Lazetic off - Nisbet, Polvara on

Like for like does little. No service to lazetic will mean no service to nisbet.

like many, losing patient with Thelin ball. Painful.

One passage of play and 2 mins of sustained attacking play in 70 mins so far.

One positive I'll say (a crumb of comfort from this shitshow) is that Aouchiche playing in a deeper midfield role is bringing out the best in him. Some very good passes when he finds space.

Armstrong has made some good runs in behind, but (back to the negative) Karlsson's refusal to pass the ball means they're being wasted.

 

Thought Armstrong had been subbed off!! Unlucky.

I think Aouchiche has been our best player. Let’s take him off!

So yeah, let's take off Aouchiche and Armstrong...

Please put milanovic on the left!!! He’s down nothing on the right for 5 months.

karlsson, aouchiche, armstrong off

keskinen, clarkson, milanovic on
