GTMLivo 149 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Shambles of a display from the defence again... and as much as I think fod is a good keeper he's just far to inconsistent for my liking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergio 1,199 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Gifted them two goals and couldn't defend a corner, didn't cover themselves in glory tonight that's for sure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFCRobertson 11,775 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 You mean the defence that's no had a break? 2 of 3 of them played 120 minutes plus penalties. Another was off injured. No-one was saying how bad they were against septic. kiernan had a lapse in concentration, Wes took a bad touch and the third was undefendable Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
B1872 20,673 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Set pieces has been an issue for us all season. However I don't think for one second that Mr Warburton and Sir Davie don't know that. It'll be resolved for next season. ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
siamthedanger 2,853 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 We have known this most of the season. Even against Septic, as good as we were, they won nearly every header from their corners. Not to worry about just now, I'm sure it will get sorted in the summer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moody Blue 9,346 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Seem to have a bit of Amoruso about them.....when they stick to defending and concentrate they're pretty solid but then they believe they are better than they are, lose concentration and we get punished heavily. Sick to death of teams taking their very few chances against us and scoring with them and us having 60%odd possession and having 4 shots at goal all night Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bettertogether 381 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 So the league was won, the petrofac cup was won, we beat the beasts to reach the Scottish cup final, we're getting beat 2-0 then 3-1, the game finishes 3-2 and all of a sudden we're the worst team in the world! Fuck Off!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wullyRFC 5,230 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 The defence isn't good enough it's not really up for debate. Leaking goals and not taking anything away from Sunday but they managed far too many shots at goal. If they were more crucial we'd have got beat.

We played our biggest rivals.. a game that was played at an incredible pace and we gave it our all. We looked like a team that was fatigued mentally, more than anything. We are very fit.. probably the fittest team in the UK, but when you are mentally drained, there is very little you can do. Lapses of concentration will happen. I feel that that is exactly what happened. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of training on Monday then some more on tuesday. Exactly, we played 120 minute against celtic, then trained monday, trained tuesday and then a league game against a strong opponent on wesensday night.

At the end, when they've already got 3 goals and have done the business. They used their fitness in the start and middle. Sloppiness showed in our side, you can directly blame Kiernan for the first goal. Given his performance on Sunday though, I'd happily forgive him for it. Because tonight we were playing a league game in a league we've already won. I'd rather he and the team reserve their fitness, only doing enough to keep them sharp until the final.

_mcv_ 107 Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Fitness seemed fine to me. Can't mind if it was Wilson or Kiernan... Was told to get the hivs player marked, but just ignored him.
