Cunts that say a win is all that matters wind me up too if that was a hearts or hibs the day they take points off us, or even a killie wae Clarke in charge. If we want to even make a half arsed attempt at winning the league we need to improve drastically I know what you mean mate and I know we all wanted a performance after the scum's result yesterday but it was never going to be easy today. Kilmarnock away is completely different to ST Johnstone at home. Have a look at my post earlier in this thread with Kilmarnock's results against us and the scum at home last season and you'll see what I mean. I would be a bit worried if this was a turgid win against Hamilton at Ibrox but the way I see it is we were the better team and deserved to win the game. Definitely there will be easier games but it's very difficult to play a team on a small pitch who don't want to play football back. Their striker was 10 yards from his own box in open play at times in the first half. That said I agree we need improvement but we always do. Enjoy the win and see it for what it is. If we're struggling against bottom 6 teams at Ibrox then get raging. GeeSS 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeeSS 512 Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 52 minutes ago, Broxi said: End of last season we said we needed 3 quality signings. A LB, RW and CM (and Kent back). We have made 6 signings and only addressed one of those problems and it's unacceptable. I'm delighted we got that last minute winner today but sad truth is we are winning nothing this season with Barisic, Jones and Ojo in the team. The fact we've spent £4m on centre backs is nothing short of a farce. Haven't completely written off Ojo yet as it's far too early but early signs aren't encouraging me. Still 3 positions short, we just need to pray we still get Kent. What clown you are. We have added Davis Aribo OJo and I haven’t gave up on getting Kent back yet , any team needs 4 centre backs therefore getting 2 in for 4m is great business and our defence now looks much stronger than last season left back might be an issue but I believe in Barasic Flanigan and Halliday we have enough to get by we are a great deal stronger and a more balanced squad now and we will get better as the season gets going.

They got beat 2-0 at home to Welsh no hopers recently. Yes its a great result, no question, but performance wise and lack of creativity it was same as those league games. We pumped them 3-1 there in the cup. Clarke being gone doesn't matter at this stage of the season. It's more or less the same players playing the exact same tactics on their shitey plastic pitch. The comparison is completely valid as their new manager hasn't changed a single thing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supersonic 4,654 Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Still plenty time. Defensively we seem better, midfield we're the same if not slightly stronger. However, out wide we're definitely much weaker. I hope we get kent back but even then, personally we could do with Kent and one further quality signing as well for the other side. Don't see either happening sadly. StaunchLondonGer 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MARK92GERS 807 Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 Selling Candeias seems absolutely ludicrous when you think of it he was far better in pre season than what Jone & Ojo have been imo really hope we get Kent in though miss him big time without a shadow of a doubt Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drunk and disorderly. 14,421 Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 There was me thinking that we hadn't beat Kilmarnock away in the league away last season and did today. Rugby park is a cunt of a pitch and they have shortened it too. Not conducive to free flowing attacking football at all. The new players need time to gel. It's far too early to make a judgement on the signings as we have only played one league game. We lacked consistency in the league last season. How do you judge consistency after a solitary match?

BTW are we judging the signings who haven't even played a league game yet? It wasn't a generic statement either. It was factual. Sorry if that doesn't meet your doomsday world view.

Sub Genius 33 Posted August 4, 2019 Share Posted August 4, 2019 If money is at a premium, why did we spend £3.5m on another centre half when we already had Goldson, Katic and Edmundson? Would we not have been better adding another McAuley type backup and using the money towards a playmaker / attacking mid or goalscoring winger?

No. He scored 6 league goals last season and had one assist with less than 1000mins of league game time. Not only is he physically strong and direct but he has an end product. That’s why we signed him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
