nvager 498 Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 The lack of wingers - particularly DMB, plus the poor form of Burke, Novo and Naismith when played out wide. Add to that the loss/transfer of A Hutton which was a severe blow. Add to that the poor form of S Whittaker in midfield. Frustration with K Boyd's overall game apart from scoring. Lack of fitness of JCD. Loss of S Smith and A Webster to injuries. If the above had not occurred we would be a really classy attacking team by now. Just my take on it.

Cant argue with you there, I dont think Naismith is ever a winger and i think he could have stuck a bit longer with Whittaker at right back. Big Broadfoot,s a trier plenty effort but little talent again though he was a centre back. Huttons definitely the big miss, I knew we would miss him but i,m surprised at how much. Hopefully DMB will be back before the end of the season along with Stevie Smith and give the manager a few options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thermopylae 15,287 Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 So far as the Hutton one goes Walter must have ok'ed that. I mean he's writing in the paper today that he will leave if we boo the team so he would surely leave if Murray was selling his team out from under him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderhawk 0 Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 I have to be honest I was not a fan of Beasley when we were first linked with him, but watching his displays have changed my mind and I'm now eager to see him back fit! Stevie Smith will be just like Hutton I reckon only with a left foot another £9m in the bank !?!? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly but remember it has been a decade since Walter used any positive system for his teams.The negative,try not to lose attitude started in the 10 in a row season.
