I've since realised that it's not going to happen for him with us. Time for him to move on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrLaudrup 4,669 Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 MW is normally fairly constant with his subs and to be honest I don't really have a problem with that. It definitely shows the lack of depth there is in the squad though. Next season will be better. There were warning signs in the game prior to the substitutions and we should have had more than enough about us to see out the game from a winning position regardless of who was on the pitch.

I remember it being Barrie coming off alone for Forrester on 60 minutes, then a double sub about 10 mins later. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're arguing against yourself. Your original statement was that Clark was poor the whole game and I merely corrected you in that he came on as a sub around the 60 min mark so it was hardly the whole game. Now you want to want to be pedantic about a couple of minutes. Yes I did watch the game on RTV, as I do every game, I could pose the same question to you. However this discussion is going nowhere.

You picked my statement up the wrong way and compounded it by getting the time of the substitutions wrong. I agree that the discussion is going nowhere as you are refusing to admit fault.

writingranger 1,417 Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 it was all too easy but we didn't take enough of our chances and it made us nervous. Then we were put on the back foot, got more nervous, they scored and we fell apart as a defensive unit. I don't just mean the defenders. Everyone started to treat the ball like it was rugby ball shaped and they couldn't quite get it under control. I'm hoping that the tension has now been relived with no real harm done.

That defending though. If we are to make a proper challenge for the league next season, something that I'm not convinced will happen, we'll need to get shot of either Wilson or Kiernan, or even both. The both of them are absolute disasters Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMB 14,167 Posted March 22, 2016 Share Posted March 22, 2016 McCoist was heavily criticised for not giving youngsters and fringe players more opportunities after we had won the 2nd Division. This season's almost over so giving certain players the opportunity to prove themselves worthy of a jersey next season seems reasonable. Guys like Clark, Shiels, Templeton (if he were fit), Law, Forrester, King, and some youngsters should all be getting more game time. Fans need to look at the bigger picture rather than get wound up over a meaningless game against Falkirk. We have important cup games coming up so I expect a full strength team then.
