Prso's headband 35,257 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 My old man said that to me as far back as September when the tarriers dropped points at home and we done the same, time and again Regardless of our players we should be sitting right behind them by a maximum of 3 points. Draws against Killie and Hearts, coupled with the last 2 defeats we’ve had and you’re already looking at 10 points, 7 of them were at home against 3 bottom 6 teams. It’s depressing when you think about it, it really is. Despite the greatest team ever to grace world football, we had a “funny foreigner” and an assistant manager in charge, yet 2 weeks ago we were still only 6 behind. Fast forward 2 weeks and we should have cut that back to 4 with a new manager on the horizon, instead it’s 7 having played one more game. Do others think the same as me? Or do you think they’ll eventually walk the league by 20 or more points? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeparateEntityMyArse 53,575 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 If they keep getting their dubious (corrupt ) decisions like last night's they will romp it by at least 20 points. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IMO if we had a new manager before Hamilton and Dundee we’d be sitting a point behind them today. That’s sickening from a fans point of view and that should be directed at the board, especially if it’s McInnes who has been the main man since the first day.

Smile 26,600 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 It did not help that we have gone five weeks without a Manager and are leaderless as a Club no one at the Club bar the support have the Appetite to challenge the scum. Our season will be over by Christmas every season till we get winners at the Club. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have a squad capable of mentally challenging for the league. Last night was a brilliant performance and result for us but we have games like that all the time with this team, then it's back to dropping points freely.

Brian Fantana 28,894 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 lethargy is strating to creep into the scums perfomances and they will be defeated this season. Last night we played well but i don't think it's sustainable and a lot of our players are too shy to be physical although we did press more in the second half last night. The team are currently not good enough to win a title but there are a few who are starting to look pissed off and want to prove themselves, i just hope they keep it going and a new manager instills the winning mentality in them. long story short i think we will scrape second by a few points but be at least 12 behind them at the end of the season.

I don't see why it wouldn't be. He knows how to beat the rest of the league and if he were here I don't see why with the better resources and fan expectation he couldn't beat the taigs.

TheMotor 2,208 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I think the season will continue like this. They're getting a lot of narrow results, we're up and down like a fucking yo-yo. If they're in Europe after Christmas, the gap will end up 10 points or less. If they're bumped by Anderlecht, it'll be 15+. I've still got 500 on us for the league and I'm not cashing out. Lose a couple of strikers for a couple of months and they could be in bother. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Billy1984 6,314 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 John Beaton cost us another 3 points with jacks red at home to hibs. The players are the ones who can change it round, if they play as well as last night with the same intensity and take our chances we beat everyone in the league with the possible exception of the taigs. Once we are consistently beating everyone and getting past the elusive 3 wins in a row we can have a go at the filth. Sounds easy but to do all that we need a permanent and competent manager.

Ryju84 3,170 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 I still put some responsibility on the refs for our losses/draws. Not the recent ones, but deffo the Hivs game. Last night seemed like the first game this season where the ref was neutral. He booked our players, he booked their players. He gave free kicks to them when we fouled, he gave free kicks to us when we fouled. The red card was correct (some refs would have bottled it). We won't ask for any ref to give us all decisions, or openly call for them to justify every decision. But all we do need is 50/50, neutral refereeing.

TheBluebells 6,898 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Spoke about this last night, we’ve dropped some ridiculous points this season and are our own worst enemy. If we beat Aberdeen again this weekend all we are doing is making up for Fucking up 2 games against Dundee and Hamilton, it’s frustrating.

Courtyard Bear 41,357 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 It’s just like this we have a standard of player that if they have a bad day are no better than the rest so we will drop points. The days of playing badly and winning are long gone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeanMK 4,641 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Back to back losses against Hamilton and Dundee are the biggest disappointments this season for me so far. Those were games we really should’ve won had the players turned up. If they had we’d be sitting a point behind the greatest team to ever play football in the history of mankind.

That’s exactly what am getting at. For all the fury and piss poor play two run of the mill games and we’d be breathing down their neck. I think some of that has to be levelled at the board for not having a manager, but it’s still not an excuse to bypass the players in they games Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplythebest 11,453 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Winning the league would have been a step too far regardless I'd say but the opportunity was definitely there to close the gap and put them under some proper pressure this time, 2nd should certainly have been easy Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just feel we hopefully get a run of at least 3 in a row! just trying to stay optimistic! Sadly these days a routine victory against the sheep is all we have to shout about.
