Millen Lang and Dick were horrendous yesterday, that was merely in the first half. That set a precedent in a way. Losing the possession in defence gave Inverness impetus to push forward. Inverness for me are an average team. Why we seem to capitulate so easily boggles the mind. Our total failure to defend set pieces lies squarely at Murray, for a guy that’s career was as a defender clearly isn’t getting his point across or his players aren’t willing or good enough to adhere the message.

Our defence is the worst we’ve had in years. It’s not just a Rovers problem it’s an every club problem except the Bigot brothers ( league wise) There seems to be a real lack of talent in this country. Is it a mere Scottish problem or is it throughout the UK

Did you actually read what I said??

Yup, just that we fail to capitalise on the good forward play. Yet we capitulate in the second half. There is no happy medium. If we start slow we have that defence to worry about yadda yadda. We tire in the second half which leads to us losing goals

Pretty much why we’re a championship club. The fitness levels drop severely in the second half. The defending of set pieces will see us struggle for the remainder of the campaign. That was diabolical for their second goal. What the hell were they doing. If I’m honest Nolan isn’t cutting it. It should be Lang and Dick at CB. Was Masson playing yesterday?

They have plenty money. They could if they want buy the leagues best players. Also some Premiership guys too.

have some faith bro, it’s all we have.

I suppose. Nae harm in trying though

I’m hoping the Scottish investors are locals, or near enough. I’m banking on a Penman, Smart, McDermid consortium. But I might be talking peeaaasssh.

No it won’t, it’s a waste of time even playing this. Guaranteed away win as per.

Without question, you could put out your under 10’s and we’d struggle

I have to agree with you, that was a cracking season for both teams, although we eventually ran out of steam and Dunfermline’s over spending to take the title was glorious banter wise. I’ll have a wee listen.

The potential for two upsets is real.

I know I talk shite at times. But anyone suggesting Spencer is over rated is totally bat shit crazy

Yup, the very word I was trying to convey Scapegoat. The defence have to take some kind of accountability for failure to clear the corner.

Exactly, Marv was kept out of the team too because we were in a battle for survival, as we are now. We simply cannot proceed with the current team until the end of the season. I really want Fredericksen to succeed.

Big Marv was awful when he first joined the club, then grew to be a club legend. Maybe we should give the guy time.

That’s probably the best summation of our squad I’ve read so far. I’d always prefer other clubs players to the majority of ours….except I’d keep MacDonald, Connolly, Lang to an extent (injury prone) Stanton, Vaughan (injury prone) Spencer, Easton. Then build a squad around them. That’s a lot of cash we don’t have. We should be a club in progression. But we seem to be regressing at a rate of knots.

We deserve to be where we are, we have no money to even compete now. It kinda leaves us teetering on a relegation battle. And btw I hated even typing that.

Precisely, we have absolutely nothing of any significance on that bench.

Cove were absolutely brutal, we made them look semi competent. Awful game of football. We can only perform in a single half. Get the finger out Murray.

I think he lives in Cupar

That’s what I mean, we’ve had some good balls put into the box. But no takers. So in a sense you’re right.

What a quality game so far. We should be up at least 4 if we took our chances. Dundee look dangerous too. Hope we haven’t used all that valuable energy for the second half.
