Obviously don't have a brain to grasp it was a joke or need to go to specsavers because I already said I wasnt serious previous.

Hilarious seeing you and the other poor posters on here not grasp that and giving you likes lol

Just joking defence 🙈 Its always a joke, after the fact, when you realise your wrong and no one agrees with you 😉

A few players off it again concentration wise, but Lundstram really needs to step it up and offer more. Looks like he's only happy to play a 5 yard pass back to whoever has passed it to him at the moment and we can't be accepting that.

From his early performances I don't see how he fits into our system or style. 

Judging from his Livi cameo I thought he was going to be all action, injecting that Arfield type energy all over the pitch. 

Hoping that wasn't a one off because he's been dire since.

Roofe isn’t on the bench 

So far today in this thread we’ve had someone suggesting hagi will score (after the teamsheets were out) and now someone wanting roofe to be brought on

Baffling 

[Malkytfp1 18,594]

Looking at positives, were still in the game despite being under par. Morelos looks hungry and should only improve with match fitness and we're getting into good areas. Wee Gerrard rocket at half time still needed but 3 points within reach still.

[KingKirk 25,633]

I'd be less worried if we were making chances we ain't tho absolutely toothless

He looks like an expensive version of Ross McCrorie without the energy at the moment.

I don’t get it at all.

We barely if ever bothered with the 3CDM’s last season so why have we went back to it.

[GersInCanada 7,775]

We still look rusty at times. No panic yet but not a good first half. Glad to see Alfredo back leading the line.

Stupid cunts eh.

Btw will the bookies pay back your bet if you have Roofe hat trick on? Asking for a friend

Yet we still had 9 attempts on goal in the first half

[BlueThunder 8,453]

Wright is guaranteed to appear unless we score a couple quickly.

No real chances being made which is a worry for this match and Tuesday.

Exactly let’s see them keep the same intensity for a full 90 without getting caught on the break

I think the issue is this team have set the bar very high and whilst I don't expect us to be top form all the time, there's no excuse for the majority of that half. Passing has been awful, we aren't creating, aren't going beyond. We just look happy to pass backwards. 

Hopefully Gerrard gets a rocket up them at half time, wouldn't be the first time he's needed to that after a poor first half.

Tell your mate not to worry as roofe is a secret sub and he will indeed come on and score a hat-trick 

[Smile 26,600]

Dundee Utd able to push up on us as we have no pace to work them at the back, Midfields not working as you can still see players coming back to get the ball as it's just not getting up to them.

[Hadron Collider 30,867]

We can’t be the Harlem Globetrotters every game. They cunts have played the cup final in that first half. 

[maverick1200 2,828]

I think we have struggled because the ball is smaller than the ones we've been practising with. 

[Vision 16,729]

Like some posters have said i'd replace Lundstram with Wright, drop Aribo into midfield. Hopefully Wrights energy will get us more possession further forward and grab us a goal or pk.

That was tactics, the games lost that, put a tackle in or cause an incident to upset the apple cart. Used to have players in the game streetwise to do that disnae happen now.

Whit kind of haircut does Chalmers have, it’s atrocious

Think the sitting midfielders are too static. Have 3 defensive minded players. Worth swapping one out for someone like Wright who can support the attack.
