So is it the manager or the players? These exact players are the league champions.

They were doing similar with the league winning manager. It's the players Goldson's mind is elsewhere, Bassey has done well overall but is nowhere near being a first pick CB our midfielld misses both Davis and Jack badly.

Not his fault, hes had 5 players mark him every time hes got the ball..

Disagree, it concerns me that if he has 5 players marking him as you say, that he hasn't got the savvy to lift his head and  hit it wide over the other side of the park rather than moving it backwards to Barasic. 

His one drive into the goalmouth was unfortunately his only contribution to the game so far, but we need more from him.

Pen to us and them going down to 10 in second half imo

[Bad Robot 21,149]

Shite and we need to turn up the second half proper or we could be 2nd in league on Wednesday

What difference would that make?

It makes it more difficult to communicate when he is just in the door,

[sausagetrunks 6,022]

County will come out and defend, park the bus, GIO will send Itten out 2nd half to try and get on the end of crosses. IMO this half will be played in the county half.

just watched their second again. Barasic’s poor header then giving up instead of chasing back was fucking horrible. Cunt should have his wages docked. 

Your hatred for him is embarrassing.

Blaming him for that goal over Goldson and especially Bassey is hilarious.

Imagine actually blaming Barisic for stopping because Bassey was clearing the ball but completely missed it.

Itten and Kamara off, Roofe and Lowry on and drop Arfield into the deeper position.

I told ye yesterday he is not a CH and yet here you are still backing him. Riddy!

You have been desperate for him to fuck up for months just like a few others on here , whereas Goldson does it most games and never a comment from you ever.

Like I said the whole backline are shocking not just one player..........

You only get a really fit Ryan Jack for about 3 weeks and then he’s injured again, same with about 4 others in the squad.

Frustrating as fuck.

These players have shat the bed far too often.

And the manager is out of his depth.

63 league games 1 defeat,  not exactly shiting the bed form.

[IpswichGer 3,773]

I missed the first 30 minutes. Was raging but now thankful.

Itten really does offer heehaw. Get Sakala on and Itten off. At least Sakala will touch the ball and impact the game!

[BlueThunder 8,453]

Get a quick goal and we can do this. My fear is we continue with the same players and system and Ross County just mop up the stray passes.

Didn’t see much moaning about the manager on his current run of 9 wins and 2 draws

[sRcFoCt 7,662]

Hope Goldson isn't giving a half team talk or we're fucked.

 

[Laudrupsleftfoot 10,872]

Too early to call whether Gio has it as a manager or not. Can't argue with the results up until this game, the general play though bar spells in one or two game has been abysmal.

[sassaaaa 11,406]

Gios tactics are beginning to worry the fuck out of me.........

The Manager's unbeaten since he came in, and at 90mins today he'll still be unbeaten.

Not sure what he could've done about the 2 howlers.

Needs to change it, yea, i agree, and sooner rather than later.

They're not his players though are they? 

He sets them up.

We go a goal up and then just sit back.

Every single time.

[bluenoz 30,835]

Jack, Sakala & Roofe on pronto.

[chris182 6,290]

Our finishing at times is utter dog shit man

[ritchieshearercaldow 22,137]

There’s always hope

This Manager hasn't got it.

These players,are bang average.

I like Gio as a guy but our performances since he's come in haven't been good enough

Results wise, we've scraped wins which has meant he's avoided much criticism but it'll certainly be coming his way after today/Wednesday

Absolute pish mate. After a great start we decided to allow RC back into the game and got punished for it.

I was sitting just almost in shock staring at the screen. 

 

Gio facing his first real test now this next 45.
