delparlane 5,765 Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Great result for the boys today (in spite of my losing the RM link and the game feed repeatedly dropping - bloody technology!). Shame Kenny missed out on 3, but he looked sharp along with Davis and Naisy, and Big Lee's goal was a scorcher! Fine way to start the new campaign!.

aird 3,873 Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Did anyone see the Falkirk striker called Alex McDonald, number 21? To me he actually looks like hes an Sunday league amateur footballer. He's wee, he's fat and everything's about 2 size too big for him Good win today, thought Miller and Davis played well. The entire midfield played well tbh. Stevie Smith looked a wee bit rusty, some of his touches and passes were terrible. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HelloMoto 0 Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Thought it was a poor game today and we were flattered with 4-1. Whittaker was getting the pish ripped out of him in the first half. McCulloch's goal was an absolute screamer, but he is still a hammerthrower and unsuitable for midfield. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlippinEck 3,759 Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Thought it was a poor game today and we were flattered with 4-1. Whittaker was getting the pish ripped out of him in the first half. McCulloch's goal was an absolute screamer, but he is still a hammerthrower and unsuitable for midfield. At times I thought that too but If miller, boyd and davis had done better with there 3 relatively straight forward chances, we could have won by 2 maybe 3 more goals Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelloMoto 0 Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 A decent/good side (e.g. Champions League quality/Celtic/Hearts) will rip the utter pish out of Whittaker, the guy can't defend to save his life. No positional sense and doesn't see the danger until the man has a run on him. I found myself wanting Broadfoot back, which is pretty embarrassing. Fleck was misplacing quite a few passes as well and the boy couldn't buy a first touch in the second half. He should have been hooked for Aaron at about 60 mins. Davis was a standout as was Miller. Bougherra got away with some slackness at the back which he really does need to eradicate from his game as wel go into Europe. He'd be a much better player if he just thumped it into touch sometimes instead of trying to be cute. Overall though happy with the 4 goals, even though it was flattering and good to be back at the football again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Muff 245 Posted August 15, 2009 Author Share Posted August 15, 2009 4-1 win in the opening game of the season; that will do for me. Steven Whittaker is a big worry for me. I don't rate him at all, he's poor defensively, his positioning is terrible, he's sloppy, slow as death, and has the concentration span of a 3 year old.

Don't mind him coming forward Muff,but as I have been saying since last season,he's a nightmare when asked to defend.Scary situation. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muff 245 Posted August 15, 2009 Author Share Posted August 15, 2009 Full backs should be sound defensively before anything else IMO! Steven Whittaker looks quick when attacking, but when he's tracking back/trying to keep up with a player, he's so slow it's unbelieveable! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amac9 2,060 Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 I'm in the same camp as Muff and PB. Steven Whittaker frightens the shit out of me. His defending is brutal! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithgersbear 3,225 Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 Good result. Good 4 goals. The goal conceded though was just stupid. Have to tighten that area up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muff 245 Posted August 15, 2009 Author Share Posted August 15, 2009 The defence is a worry. A RB who can't defend, a 39 year old center back who is over the hill, and no back-up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithgersbear 3,225 Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 I think the defence will be fine, just need to tighten up that area. But of course, Weir for me should just be a squad player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigreid 0 Posted August 15, 2009 Share Posted August 15, 2009 we need new players to retain the league if no new players are brought in i expect our debts to be dramitically better with season ticket money, champions league and new shirts if not then what is going on with the money at the club ?

Muff 245 Posted August 15, 2009 Author Share Posted August 15, 2009 And so it begins the doom merchants and detractors start their pish How is what we are saying pish? No-one is complaining about the performance, we are highlighting the weakness in the squad, which are clear for everyone to see. It's just a pity some either chose to ignore it, or just like to have a moan at others! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
