  1. If we could stop giving away possession or fouling them or sitting back, that would be grand, thanks.
  2. That was the plan, hence me hoping it would come back to bite me. Ugwu couldn't score a perfect hat trick if he tried.
  3. I'm saying this in the hope it comes back to bite me but that's the weakest starting XI we've put out for weeks. Ugwu couldn't score in a barrel of fannies and I'm not even sure what Adam King is.
  4. Like Kevin Nisbet was non existent before he came to us?
  5. Duku and Ugwu not gonna do anything, that's for sure.* *I'd be delighted and astonished to be wrong.
  6. We had Ethan on loan at Raith for a while and he was very popular. Fast, direct, skilful and a hard worker. Disappointed he was recalled early by McInnes. A bright prospect if managed properly.
  7. Musonda. Musonda is the priority. I can imagine the scouts who were loitering around Duku earlier have been turned on to big Frankie's performances, so he's the one I'm hoping for. Announce Musonda!
  8. Some sensible, realistic comments here for a change. See when you drop your Billy Bigtime pish, you guys are alright.
  9. He's only in because Frankie got nailed in the 3-0 win over Hertz.
  10. Was there any explanation from the club? Development? Your predicament has strong parallels with our Gary Fucking Locke version; good player inexplicably sent away, some debatable recruitment, too many short term deals for players with no attachment or commitment, a manager who didn't know what to do with the mess he made and an accelerating downhill slide . Your good start will see you safe but like Locke, Crawford's reputations as a player and as a manager are two very different things.
  11. So what actually happened with Turner? I've not read a clear account. As some of you have mentioned, you have a midfield made up of loanees. Turner, for me, was / is a real prospect, and I don't remember him being slaughtered for any catastrophes. Not saying he would have made a difference last night but it shone a light on a good non-loanee player being somewhere else, a la Vaughan at Dumbarton.
  12. He DID seem to play a blinder against Dundee though. A better performance may have kept out Lewis Vaughan's peachy free kick and maybe one of Gullan's brace, but he was hung out to dry by the defence, including Captain 'lethal at set pieces' Murray. But a team defends from the front, and Crawford's utter bemusement at what shape we were playing and complete inability to do anything about it meant the players in front of the defence didn't know what they were meant to be doing (hence the comedy written note) or lay a glove on their opponents (despite a few "agricultural" tackles). Rovers were imperious last night, to a man. Even Dan Armstrong, who has been at times a shadow of his former self, performed admirably when he came on. Slightly worrying was the number of other managers in attendance, no doubt slavering over the performances of at least Hendry and Musonda, but it was more than revenge for the 4-1 game. It was as abject a humiliation of the massive team as I've seen and certainly on par (!) With 6-0 in 1983.
