thehost 11,061 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 today, imo, was a shocker.half a yard away from the play, punts forward, poor substitutions and a woeful lack of threat. CF's cannot distribute a ball and our mid was woeful when holt went off.Poor fayre today; we can do much better.PS we need a goal scorer Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeyserSoze 14,531 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Hivs were frustrating us with their ugly football so we did revert to trying a few punts to skip their packed midfield. Law had a poor game and our passing at times was not always great. We also lost concentration at times too. In saying that we won and if we can win with all of the above just think what things are going to be like when this team beds in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

graeme_4 34,461 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Wasn't great, and seemed laboured.Also went long uncharacteristicly often, which contributed to our performance. Sure it will be rectified next game - and we won! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
graeme_4 34,461 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Also, agreed a CF is s must. Kenny should only contribute off the bench and Clark is just not at this level. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

minstral 5,375 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 We kept giving the ball away today, and stupid mistakes could have cost us today. The good thing is that we won the game, and now look forward to the next game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inspector Sams 1,950 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 The win’s the thing, we can play better and Hibs can’t. Every team in the world can have an off day but if you win on your off day there’s not much more you can ask. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al 55 9,248 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Poor based on our own high standard, still controlled the play reasonably well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMax399 3,698 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 Happy to take the 3 points today - that was the most important aspect.Granted, we were a bit slow in the first half, passes went astray and some of our players did not have their best games, but we showed we can still win when not totally on our game.A 6 point gap between us and Hibs is good stuff at this point in the season.

Arguably one of the most important traits in a championship winning team. Time will tell but I think we're onto a winner with the manager and the players he has brought to us.Crazy how we've only spent £660k and this I'd the result. 6 games. 6 wins.

Inigo 32,526 Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 It definitely wasn't a shocker. It was a bit sloppy and it wasn't of the standard we've grown accustomed to recently, but I can't see that 'shocker' is fair.Wouldn't have liked to have played a better team today, though. We might have suffered.Just shows that there's still a good bit of work to be done,because we can't afford a performance like that in the cups.
