    Got to feel sorry for Barney there. Great chance to win and just 1 or 2 darts made all the difference. Will take a bit of getting over this for him. MVG some battler though.

    Making something out of nothing. Securing the best future just means going if someone offers more money. Scottish clubs can’t compete with the money down South. The nature of the beast was a very pertinent part of the quote. Selective quoting and misinterpretation is never a good recipe.

    It won’t be easy or happen in the short term but it’s the only hope I’ve got. Your scenario, while entirely possible, is difficult to accept and a one team league will eventually self destruct as there will be no support or marketability. I might not be here to see it but I’ll keep hanging on and look for gradual improvements instead of just throwing in the towel as it’s not going our way just now.

    It will change because celtic will make mistakes in the transfer window. They’ll lose good players to England and, due to the weaknesses in our league, won’t attract quality replacements. They’ll get injuries and field understrength teams. They’ll get lazy and, like we once did, expect to just turn up to win. It’s already happening this season when you look at the points they’ve dropped. We have to be able to take advantage though and when we do, things will slowly start to turn round again. Someone could give Partick Thistle £30M and they’d be title contenders in the short term but that’s not sustainable over time.

    Superiority in this league between us and celtic has always been fairly cyclic. Over the piece, we’ve had the best of it but they are currently lording it just now. It will change but we’ve (and they’ve) always had a significant number of fans who are only there for the reflected glory during the good times as it gives them something to feel good about themselves. We’ll be back in time and they’ll come flooding back celebrating like they’ve never been away. It’s upsetting and frustrating but it makes sport what it is and is better to develop strength ove time instead of just buying short lived success.

    Kept the tempo, effort, focus and heads up. Showed some of the potential that's there. Get some consistency and it could be us turning the corner.
  7. The Ghost
    Definitely got potential but needs to gat more disciplined and stop the elbows and kicking out. Goes down far too easily too which means referees overlook definite fouls for fear of being conned and makes him more frustrated and angry. He's young though and once he learns to take that extra half second to pick his spot and gets a bit more support, the goals should come in this league anyway. I'm still not convinced he's earned all of the praise he's getting.

    Tried his best but couldn't get the team to play as a unit and, latterly, lack of on field discipline cost us dearly. Results are the be all and end all and just weren't good enough. Hope this isn't the end for him and he gets another role elsewhere.

    Thought it was a deserved win against a good team with a great keeper. Sets up the chance for another glorious failure though! Still a lot to do to get through.
  10. The Ghost
    At least Vettel has shown some class when dealing with the disappointment of the last two weeks. Hopefully still get some good points tomorrow with a completely fresh engine.
  11. The Ghost
    They've got a few players who are a class above ours who can turn a game and snap up a half chance. That and a bit of luck has been the difference. We've done ok with what we have and could have had something out of this with a bit of good fortune. I wouldn't put too much blame on Pedro for this.
  12. The Ghost
    Pressing for the equaliser and leaving too much space.
  13. The Ghost
    Fod's first real mistake there. Sloppy.
  14. The Ghost
    Cardoso pulled out of the clearance kick. Poor defending in a crowded box.
  15. The Ghost
    McCrorie doing himself proud just now.
  16. The Ghost
    0-0 at H/T would be acceptable all things considered.
  17. The Ghost
    Good play there. Opened them up.
  18. The Ghost
    We're weathering a storm but it's still 0-0. They've not had lots of clear chances despite their possession. Still in it and it's early days. They'll get frustrated and we'll get space to exploit.
  19. The Ghost
    Good effort. Had the keeper in trouble.
  20. The Ghost
    Great cross and finish. Need to pile the pressure on now. Showing a bit of character at least.
  21. The Ghost
    It's supposed to be hard to play against 10 men. We've lost shape and discipline and made it easy for them. Ref has been poor but we've contributed to our own downfall here. Need to toughen up and keep focussed.
  22. The Ghost
    Lucky you! I would just leave it for today.
  23. The Ghost
    Don't think he expected the ball to get to him there. Poor attempt.
  24. The Ghost
    Could have easily been 3 there. We're being pushed back too easily and sitting too deep. Need to create a threat and give them something to think about.
  25. The Ghost
    Falling to pieces here. Need calm heads to salvage something.
