    Are you saying this is a hard chance, 90% of us on here would bury that ffs

    And 100% of us or anyone else for that matter, including the very best strikers in the world, could miss it.

    All strikers miss glaring chances.

    Halland has missed some absolute sitters in his career. He just happens to score a barrow load too.

    We spent 200k on McCoist which would have been a lot of money for a 21 year old at the time. We spent not much more on the likes of Butcher and Woods years later and both were England internationals.

    £185k is roughly £820k in todays money. Absolute bargain in the current market but it was very different back then. The most expensive British transfer was Bryan Robson to Man U for £1.5m (circa £6.6m these days).

    So McCoist fee was about 12.5% of Robson's. 

    The most expensive British transfer is currently Enzo Fernandez at £107.1m
    Dessers, cost around £4.3m which is 4% of Fernandez’s fee.

    im not saying Dessers is anywhere near McCoust in terms of quality just highlighting their relative value in their respective markets (although today’s market is fucking mental)  and by doing so you could maybe argue Dessers has cost 1/3 of McCoist

    Frightening what Koppen / Clement have done and recruited sofar. When was the last time a window looked so good. Trying not to get carried away but if these lads continue in this trajectory what an end to the season we’re in for. Bearing in mind Clement has said there’s still a lot to come from Cortez too 🥶

    What I really like about Cortez is that he doesn’t over complicate things. Does the simple things well and nothing flashy (although he did fluff a pass into the box today by trying the old  ‘look one way kick the ball in the opposite direction’).

    It’s early days, but him (and Diomande) appear to be an upgrade on what we’ve had.

    Worse than Jeffers, Ostenstad and Sebo combined clearly.

    And Beattie, Sadiq, Itten, Clark, Bo Anderson, Little, Pena, Herrera…..

    But other than them, and a few others, he’s definitely the worst striker we’ve ever had, in fact he’s that bad he’s only scoring on average every 99 mins under the current manager.

    Im not discounting his contribution today, however not every game is at home with us winning 1-0 after 2 mins, his two sitters he missed today were abysmal, he needs to be more clinical imo 

    Like when he scored the only goal in a win v St Mirren away when we had a total of 2 shots on target?

    Is that boyds total over both spells as his second spell we were a fucking shambles when he was here

    Yes. 
    Pretty obvious that Dessers time under Beale was a shambles too.

    i appreciate stats skew performance but no matter what, a goal rate of 1 every 99 minutes is fucking superb.

  7. Here’s one for all the Dessers haters out there.

    Under Clement, Dessers has played 1,294 mins and scored 13 goals. 
    That’s a goal every 99.6 mins.

    Kris Boyd has been our most clinical striker in decades with a 116.1 min average.

    Why on Earth would you give Desser’s relentless grief with that record? Imagine his stats if scored all the ‘easy’ chances. And why the fuck would you consider punting him in the summer?

    I look forward to your answers.

    Pretty much all of these chants made me cringe, including my own. Don't really mind getting stick for posting shite like this tbh

    Although if anyone genuinely is getting raging they should maybe lighten up a bit

    Exactly. It’s just folk having a wee bit of fun. Nobody (I don’t think) is seriously suggesting we chant any/most of these. Others might think it sad to come up with a daft song. I’d say it’s much sadder to troll.
