Barasic to blame for at least 2 and probably all 3 of Sarah's goals

Yes we got an absolute hammering, but we were almost holding our own until Goldsons injury. Then Jacks injury doubled our handicap. We were playing one of the best teams in the world and were found wanting, mainly through lack of depth in our squad. Screaming for heads to roll and mass sackings is a massive overreaction imo. It's what the dark side do.

Anyone got a watchable stream?

A win in this game could really set us up for a decent run. I'd love to see us totally embarrass them but a tight 1-0 victory will do.

No matter how bad we think most of the teams in the SPL are, we are nowhere near being ready to hammer them. None of our new signings are match fit, Sandaza and Kyle have had no pre-season at all, and the rest of the squad have had very little game-time apart from Brechin and East Fife. Later in the season, once we've brought in a few more new faces and gained real match sharpness, I believe we will be able to take on and beat anyone in Scotland, including "them". But right now we're simply not ready. I voted for Dunfermline, because I think they'll turn out to be the weakest of them all.

You no got an F5 key like?

I'm fairly sure it'll be about getting match fitness into Shiels rather than dropping Hutton for no reason. We've barely got enough bodies to fill the bench so they all have to find their feet pretty quickly.

That was out of order, but as you're back on here it's obviously been sorted out. I've been on RM for years and can count the amount of "unfair" bans I'm aware of on 1 hand, although there may well be more that I'm not aware of. I've tried most of the other forums and this is still beyond doubt the most open and honest IMO.

RM doesn't ban anyone for simply disagreeing with the general consensus of the forum. I lasted all of 5mins on FF before being banned. I didn't use bad language, didn't insult anyone or belittle the site. I did disagree with one of MDs posts but stated my reasons for doing so in a balanced and not-unfriendly manner. I didn't even get a reply, just an instant ban.

This is the attitude we need to show!

It was reported on all the national news channels that Charles Green couldn't attend the meeting with SPL/SFA officials a week or 2 ago because he was in Switzerland meeting with UEFA re the sanctions.

A manager can only use the best tactics to fit the playing squad he has at his disposal.

We need to get players in now as we will be banned from registering anyone for around 18 months after this window. The squad needs depth to cover for injuries, loss of form etc. Obviously our form will improve dramatically once we've played a few games, gained match sharpness, settled the nerves and become accustomed to playing on much tighter pitches. Then we can judge the players on their merits. It's not always going to be pretty, especially away from home, but we already have enough class in the squad to win the vast majority of our Div 3 and Div 2 games with relative ease. Living within our financial means will almost definitely result in us having to bring in a few hammer-thrower types with experience of the lower leagues rather than paying inflated wages to ex-SPL players approaching the end of their careers, but hopefully we can still play with some style. I'd like to see a few wide players either brought through from the youth squads or signed, as lower league sides are not really equipped to cope with width but tend to rely on big centre-backs knocking over the opposition.

Superb........absolutely superb! :praise:
