  1. One absolutely terrible and one extremely questionable refereeing decision against us but we need to take responsibility too. Once again Muirhead and terrible goalkeeping letting us down.

     

    Tonight showed how much we need options for Lawless and Fitzpatrick. One gets taken off and we’re shoehorning McInroy and Diack outwide where they offer nothing.

    I'd argue that we already are. 

    Top six finish last season. Well on course to repeat that this season.

    Problem now is that there is a massive gap in terms of resources between us and the top three, fully professional, clubs. 

    But massive, massive strides have been made. It was ten years ago today that we played our very first fixture, a friendly against what is now Glasgow Women, and we were gubbed. Severely so. 

    Now we are in the topflight, top half of that, about to contest our second national cup semi-final and becoming an attractive club for other players to want to join. 

    There is a strong argument for us being the best semi-pro women's team in Scotland. And we are still improving on and off the pitch. 

    How much of the team’s recent form down to Brian Graham?

    Like most I’ve never been to one of the woman’s games but aiming to go along at some point.

  3. Draw a fair point. For once we improved with our subs which were much needed as our midfield was garbage. Was impressed with McBeth, he gives a much needed physical presence but was calm on the ball.

    As has been mentioned, referee had no control over the game and just kept giving mental decisions. Bannigan should’ve been off, no question about it but somehow a Morton player got booked for rightly moaning about it. Despite Robbie Muirhead trying to lunge through the back of Milne then later on blooter the ball 60 yards about 3 second after a foul was given yet he escaped a card all game. Fitzpatrick twice gave away a free-kick for the crime of having the shirt almost ripped off him. Some bizarre calls for free-kicks, he just seemed desperate to be centre of attention and was doing some Mike Dean like gestures when blowing for free-kicks. Not 100% sure if Stanway was fouled but it did look like it.

    At least that’s a couple of loan positions cleared up now, it’s maybe not particularly ideal but if we need to use them then so be it. Another interesting proposition is who we might send out on loan? I reckon the manager will want James Lyon to go and get game time at either L1/L2 level, possibly Zander also although I’d be inclined to keep him until we get another winger in. 

    I think Lyon on-loan to Clyde is a strong possibility.

    If they’d left Firhill with a 4-1 victory I don’t think we could have had many complaints.

    Totally fell out the game second half. No off-ball runs, poor use of wings, fundamentally not at the races.

    Would have liked to see Zander brought on to inject a bit of pace and urgency into the game.

    Harry Milne had a poor game and yet probably single handedly salvaged us a point with his defensive efforts.

    We need an imposing defensive midfielder, should probably give David Mitchell a run of games, and Muirhead needs competition for the experienced centre half spot.

    No point having Neilson running out with the ball from the back if there’s no midfield out ball for him to pass to.

    In the circumstances, a point salvaged, probably undeservedly.

    McKenzie did come on with 15 minutes or so to go.

     

    Once again we were dreadful after making subs, although at the time the subs made seemed fairly sensible. Robinson was anonymous when he came on. Fitzpatrick looked the only one capable of creating something in the second half. The ball he put in after turning ICTs leftside inside out was dying for someone to tap in but Adeloye didn’t fancy it diving for it.

    Thought it could’ve quite easily been a penalty given away by Bannigan towards the end.

    Lucky to get a point.

    Bump!

     

    How would you rate them now? For me it is as follows:

    1. Duncan Ferguson

    2. Lee Bullen

    3. Ian Murray

    4. Jim McIntyre

    5. James McPake

    6. Kris Doolan

    7. Jim Goodwin

    8. Rhys McCabe

    9. Dougie Imrie

    10. Vacant

     

    You could make a pretty decent team from the managers in the Championship (when they were in their prime).

    James McPake above Doolan is a wild shout. Would have Doolan above him and McIntyre.
