Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I know it's too early to make predictions, but are we starting to see a team capable of winning the league? We know they've got the ability, but even almost by admission by certain people in our dressing room we have lacked hunger. I know it still took a penalty, but it was a properly won and a perfect take that won us a game we very easily have just drawn. We know that hibs will have been confident and if the players want to show that the last game against them was a fluke then they have shown it. Football being football, I thought we played a bit better apart from when we lost the first goal until the 3 goal and u don't know why Fashion never got on on place of Hagi, who is never a right winger. Has the team shown us desire tonight, or were we just lucky? I hope the team finally realises that we NEED those clean sheets that we had last season to be certain of taking the title. How do you beat a team who don't lose goals? The team has shown they can do it, and hopefully have big Fil back playing as soon as possible. We have missed him but Bassey has gotten better every game he's played at CB for us. Has tonight been the game where we have finally shown the qualities of last season? And I don't mean talent, but resolve. andyhrfc, MurrayWilson and cascadeshrimp 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SwallowsHisOwnSpunk 8,002 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 No wins like this should be a rare occurrence we can’t allow the team to continue to put in performances like this or we ain’t winning the league short of a tarriers meltdown. We are crying out for some fresh legs/faces in the team. falkirkNS 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GaryMc 2,409 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 We just need to keep winning this next month and then hopefully Gio can get his coaching into the team and a few additions to the team. He's focussed on getting us solid just now which we needed. He needs time to get us playing his way. 3 points is always all that matters but right now it's more important than ever as we'll improve and I think the scum have peaked or aren't far of their best. We keep picking up wins just now and it'll eventually kill those manky bastards once we kick into style. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigdave30 9,201 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 We’ve played 3 under gio, the first 2 games were arguably as good as we have played this season and then tonight was a shite smash and grab, lacklustre performance against a team that pumped us the other week. All good signs for me, let’s make it 4/4 and see where we go. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blues Brother 1,147 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 I’ve not been this happy since we won the league. What a tough game it was and to come away with 3 points is absolutely brilliant. Cant wait to get into work tomorrow for all the “ah another soft penalty” merchants.

BlackpoolBear1952 402 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Was a clear penalty so we got what we deserved in that instance,but we will lose points if we continue to play like that.We don't get enough players in the opposition box and too many times tonight there wasn't a pass on forward as we were too immobile. The defense does seem a little more settled now we don't have our full backs overlapping but that cuts down on our crosses into the box and reduces our creativity. We need pace and width from somewhere else now and if Kent's not playing well we maybe need to try Sakala as Hagi is too slow for me.....onwards..

stuart1994 4,539 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 Won plenty of games 1-0 last season, three points is the most important thing. Anyone who thinks we’re going to go out every game score 3/4 and win convincingly is in dream land, football doesn’t work like that.

Malkytfp1 19,712 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 3 points and we move on. I don't think we can have Hagi and Kent play together.

KyleBJK 939 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 It’s a big result. Remember last season we went to Killie Park won 1-0 through a penalty but the performance was average at best. Still, it gave the tens the desire, confidence and character to grind it out and show we could build on it. Hopefully tonight is similar.

Malkytfp1 19,712 Posted December 1, 2021 Share Posted December 1, 2021 What tonight does is send a reminder to the cunts across the city. They thought we would capitulate with "that manager" leaving us. They all tuned in tonight excited to see us drop points only to be left scunnered. Pressure on them now and with the possibility of their game at Dundee Utd being called off this weekend tomorrow night becomes a must win.
