radlord 24 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 yep he was at fault for it. It's fucking Daily's fault mainly though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelloMoto 0 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Not got a clue, he goes to sleep too much, and when he wakes up the ball has hit the back of the net and he's sitting there looking stupid. Good shot stopper, but his positioning and reading of the game needs worked on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

azul 0 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I thought at the time he looked a wee bit suspect but I haven't watched it since to have a proper look. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluenose_Pete 4 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 the free kick was a screamer.... we should have fucking pumped them though even with them getting that free kick. we didnt. its our own fault.... treble it is (yeah, right). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

docspiderman 1,220 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 The wall was covering the side it went in so his positioning was correct, just maybe the wall should have jumped and not ducked. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
papaguy51 912 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Aye, the wall was about as solid as wet toilet paper. He's rusty and probably didn't expect that sort of shot. Juninho Pernambucano would have been proud of that effort. If Dailly hadn't given away a pointless freekick in the first instance.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dillinger 0 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 McGregor's positioning has always been suspect. TBF to AM, had he not pulled off some good saves then we could have lost four. He needs to work on both his fitness and his parts technique. The defense -the supposed cornerstone of Walter's 'progress'- is a shambles without Cueller. Broadfoot - is too raw, is trying to do far too much and rushes into too many mistakes. Booing the guy doesn't help either. He needs a stable, defensive partner for the longer term and that is either the proven Cueller (if he stays) or Bougherra. Until then he will remain a Scottish Karl Svensson. Weir - should be a squad player-cum-coach, his experience would surely aid the youngsters, but that would too much like common sense or progress for WS. Making him Club Captain at the expense of Cueller (if fit), Thomson or even Hemdami or Papac sums up Smith's short term mindset and it will be a big mistake. Too slow to react or turn, too vulnerable to injury and his much vaunted organisational skills and vision were nowhere last night. Whittaker - runs into blind alleys, gives the ball away, too much of hothead and has questionable passing and crossing. He has not filled the void left by Hutton but, then again, has barely been played in his proper position (see also Broadfoot). For all his faults, SW has shown he can actually be a competent RB at times, but he is another who needs to play alongside experience and stability. Maybe a decent midfield giving away less of the ball and fewer stupid fouls would inspire less panic. Papac - about the only player who has consistently improved under Walter Smith management. SP is modest, an excellent professional, has learned from his mistakes and, IMO, should appointed Club Captain forthwith. He and Novo are the only ones deserving any kind of credit from last night's debacle. He is a credit to himself and the Club :unionflag: . Dailly- a total liability. A useful short term utility player or squad but he should have went this summer. There is no way he should be either running key areas like central midfield, the holding role or central defense. Again, his presence in the team sums up Walter Smith's 'safety first, 0-0' mentality perfectly. Another one of Barry's pals. Webster - even more than Kenny Misser, this signing finished Walter & Ally's credibility and judgement in my eyes. Injury prone from the start, chronically lacking match fitness, ONE competitive game to his credit, Smith did not even pick the guy for Scotland and suddenly he's good enough for Rangers. The nightmare scenario is a Webster-Dailly defensive partnership. And this is the so-called strongest point of our team! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthCountryBoy 0 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 McGregor is not ready to come back yet. he has made mistakes in pre season, and was at fault last night for first goal. it is made more astonishing by the fact that we have a solid (if unspectacular) deputy for him. there is no need to be rushing McGregor back, and it cost us last night IMO Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WATPRFCNo1 0 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 McGregor is not ready to come back yet. he has made mistakes in pre season, and was at fault last night for first goal. it is made more astonishing by the fact that we have a solid (if unspectacular) deputy for him. there is no need to be rushing McGregor back, and it cost us last night IMO with each ball he parried/fumbled/save he grew even more shakey imo, alot of our players went from decent in spells in the first half to becoming like a dear caught in headlights, Alexander should start against Falkirk, full of confidence and is always signaling for the team to push up the field, gets on a defenders back when needed. McGregor is a better keeper when on form but he needs to get himself together. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alanmorton 0 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Just looking at it again , where the fuck and what the fuck was McGregor doing ??? someone tell meI think he slipped + the wall wasn't set up very well...There were nobody protecting the right side of the wall Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rfc_no1fan 13 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 I've always said Craig Gordon is the best Scottish keeper and nothing i've seem from McGregor has or will ever change my mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stardog 11 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 No offense but that free kick wasn't a screamer. The ball didn't even go near the corner or the near post. It wasn't just under the crossbar - it was at a perfectly saveable height. What side did he think the guy was going to hit it to? All it needed was one step to his right then catch it.

TMWWBK 0 Posted August 6, 2008 Share Posted August 6, 2008 Ive always thought of McGregor as a bit of a "Hollywood" keeper. There are many parts of his game that he could improve. His decisions to come for cross balls and his handling in general being the main two. I hope im wrong and he goes and builds on his form from last season (as he did play really well during some games) but really, i wouldnt be surprised at all if he turned out to be our very own David Marshall.
