Orange Persson 548 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 In fact, that result was typical of what we need to do. Not be great but keep a clean sheet and win a game. We ain't what we use to be but thank fuck we are not in that dog eat dog Championship. I will bide my time in this SPL till our progress continues. Need to play with what you have right now.

Gman36 3,456 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 A Friday night up in Inverness and we ground out a 1-0, what the fuck are folk expecting? Last night is the kind of game you have to just win any old way, and we've done that. Last night shows this team can be good enough for the spl this season. We need more results like that as we get into the winter months. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam English Loyal 945 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 A good result, a half decent performance from what I saw of the match (the first half and about 20 minutes of the second). The same problems as have been evident all season but it might take a good while to fix those problems. Think most of us would've taken a 1-0 win before the game.

simplythebest 11,453 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Don't see the problem with the op at all, I think we'd all say it was a good three points at a perpetually difficult place to go but the deficiencies in our performance were still very clear and shouldn't be ignored Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazzalivesforever 2,001 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 A wise man once said " 1-0 wins win leagues". Id rather win and play ugly than lose and play well ?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why the negativity given it was a pretty good performance To be fair mate the taigs should have battered Inverness about 5-0. Didn't think we played that well but over the moon with the 3 points!

Blue Avenger 22,567 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 We secured 3 points and that is to be commended, but it does not equate to an up and coming victory over THEM. We can but hope though. I thought we controlled the game, but the same deficiencies remain. Bombscare moments in defence where Caley could have/should have scored and we at the other end not putting away chances, lacking that cutting edge. The midfield done well, but just not enough end product. The Wallace McKay deal down the left just isn't working. Wallace spent more time in front of McKay, which I think is ruining McKay's game. He's looking a bit subdued and lost as a result as he has done in every game recently. He doesn't get his role IMHO. It's limiting him and I can sympathise with him. I think we are over complicating things with the attacking full back deals. Both forage too much forward for my liking and last night both were caught out defensively and not for the first time. For me, get it 442 and let McKay do his his job and he may flourish again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last night was awful. I can't believe some people were happy with the performance. We hardly created any chances. The goal we scored was a cracker but could have ended up in the stand. They missed two free headers. We just do not look right at all. 433 is killing our football. Next Sunday is unlikely to be a good day for all of us.

I seen a bit of the bheggars game vs Alloa and the wasted loads of chances aswell. They Alloa game that Gordon bastard escaped a red card for the kung fu kick aswell.

Allanger 625 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 I was not confident before the game last night but my prediction of a defeat was proven to be rubbish. We controlled the game in the fist half and we looked comfortable in the second. We really do need to improve our finishing though as a one goal margin is nail biting stuff. We did well and now look forward to next week Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read my post again I said it was a cracking goal but it was one of those shots where it could have ended up anywhere. The point is it was not a good performance from us and that has become our norm.

murzo 7,449 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 Seen a few people suggest a 442 and agree or 352. Think it would give us more shots on goal plus make us more secure at the back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtuoso 27,180 Posted October 15, 2016 Share Posted October 15, 2016 As yesterday proved, we lack the ability to kill off teams and you can only get away with 1 nil leads for so long. Take todays games and results from our nearest rivals: Aberdeen up 2 against Ross County by 1/2 time - then another 2 in the 2nd 1/2. Bheasts 2 nil against Motherwell, albeit the 2nd was a penalty...but they could afford a draw just now had it not been given. Hearts, 2 nil against Dundee This inability to kill off games after going in front cost us points against Aberdeen and Kilmarnock. Failing to score against Ross County at home is inexcusable, yet the sheep put four past them today. We're a mediocre team at the most who are churning out results that's doing nothing more than keeping our head above water. Last nights result merely papers over the cracks.

We're a mediocre team at the most who are churning out results that's doing nothing more than keeping our head above water. Last nights result merely papers over the cracks. It will not happen for us until we get in better quality. We look very average against average teams. We have no one who can make a difference. We work very hard to turn a goal, whilst the oppo sit in, wait to break and bang, or indeed exploit us at corners. All too predictable. In the mean time we need to be varying the play and upping the tempo. I dream for a win next week, but have little expectation. The gap is just too wide, but we can always hope. I'm off to Dubal on Monday for two weeks, so I'll at least have sunshine to cheer me up and who knows, maybe a bonus, but I won't be planning on it.
