Wearethepeople72 1,846 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Kiernan only plays bad when he's paired with Wilson. He was paired with Wilson against Morton too and we went 2-2.No he wasn't.Besides, the main problem with Kiernan is that he gets caught out of position way too much. I don't know how many times he pushed into midfield to try and win the ball and failed against Falkirk, leaving a huge gap at the back.He needs to start dropping back and holding his position when necessary because he doesn't have a great deal of pace to get back.

Im not saying dont try to win just now we would all love to put distance between us but loses now are recoverable. look how long it took hibs to catch up. things could go the other way and we open up a 9 point gap in 2 months Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Id like to see Law start instead of Zelalem, im not a fan of Law but he was good last week and Zelalems just been getting worse and worse.Tavernier better get his act together for this one, we wont get away with some of the silly mistakes he makes.Get the boot stuck right into these cunts from the get go if you ask me, get the early goal and get on with it.3-0 with Waggy to score first Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeparateEntityMyArse 53,765 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 It's called having faith in your team no matter the odds. And then sticking by your team through the good and bad.That's not to say the team is exempt from critique. But saying your team has better chances to lose than win before the game is poor behaviour.So you prefer blind faith to being objective? Stupidity/optimism over reality.Why the fuck would anyone think we'll win every game we ever go into. Get real my man. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupidity/optimism over reality.Why the fuck would anyone think we'll win every game we ever go into. Get real my man.You did read the second half of what I said right? I did say the team was liable to being criticized. Also not too long ago I posted a topic pretty much dedicated to how much I disliked Clark. What I don't like is writing the team off before the ball has even been kicked against a team that we have and can steam roll.

I don't know if it's the time of year or whether it's the noises coming out of Easter Road but I certainly think this game has an OF feel to it. You are correct in what you say about the levels of both clubs but it doesn't change the feel of the game for most, including myself, who are absolutely buzzing for it. In the past two days so were you. Cheer up. EDIT - Click the pictures for full size. Not sure why they're like that when earlier pictures uploaded in the same way turned out fine.

TonyRice1872 105 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Both managers had similar rebuilds to do pre season. Who has spent the most money? Who has the most resources? Who can employ their own staff at will? Who has done better of the two given their respective budgets? We should be out of sight. I think you're a Hibs fan mate all you have to do is consider the constant siding with Hibs in all of your posts imho Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
