  1. Just seeing the highlights. Brophy looks like the only player getting pass marks. Piss poor from Erhahon for their third goal, makes absolutely no effort to track back, leaving a huge gap in front of our defence - though he's not the only one posted missing.
  2. I'm very unhappy at Robinson's performance so far but these players need to take some responsibility too. Plenty of experienced and proven players at this level who have downed tools completely since the new manager arrived and that's unacceptable. I can't wait to see the back of guys like Jones, complete waste of a jersey.
  3. L-L-L-W-L-L-L Robinson's record. W was a last-gasp winner against the bottom side. We're no better than relegation fodder at this stage. Embarrassing.
  4. Porteous is a p***k, his reaction was ridiculous and as soon as the card was produced he celebrated and walked off, not a f**k given for the condition of his team-mate.
  5. Hearts have been fairly clinical but they haven't had to play brilliantly to score four goals. An embarrassing defensive performance from us. Dunne deserves to be dropped and Robinson needs to get a grip of this before our season ends with a whimper. Jones also needs dropped, he's done nothing in a St Mirren shirt and certainly shouldn't have stayed on the park ahead of Kiltie tonight. He offers nothing.
  6. Why not change it now? Get Power or Gogic off, Greive on and actually try to score a goal.
  7. Thanks for setting us up to fail yet again Robinson. Game over, cup over, season over.
  8. Dunne and Tanser standing picking their arses while Hearts score a goal. Shite. Would be nice if we could play some football beyond the halfway line.
  9. Can anyone explain what's going through Robinson's mind returning to three at the back? An absolutely dreadful decision. Clearly has not done his homework on our season so far and/or has not listened to the advice of the existing staff. Ironically the last game we won with that formation was away to County, but it was five fucking months ago.
  10. It makes us one-dimensional creatively, though. I get what you're saying and I don't mind having those midfield enforcers but they're very similar players from what we've seen so far. Perhaps that's as much about the balance of the front four as it is those two, though. Jones looked great against Kelty but he's done nothing since because he's isolated.
  11. The Ronan sending off killed us and we haven't been in this game since. Can't really blame Robinson for that. However I'm yet to be convinced about Power and Gogic as a central pairing. Neither has any sort of creative/attacking threat, and we have no one stepping forward from deep in the midfield to push the team as a whole forward. If the opposition can isolate Jones/Kiltie we have nothing. Was the same last week.
  12. Lol. More failures than successes? How do you explain: Reilly L Smith Mullen S McGinn C Smith Davis Stelios Flynn P McGinn Loy O'Brien Eckersley Samson R Stewart McShane (regular in the best team in the league - not a failure) Others have also covered the fact most of those on your list were signed to be squad players and were replaced as soon as better players became available.
  13. I disagree that Ross's recruitment was suspect. His signings in the January transfer window of the season we almost went down were tremendous and the reason we stayed up. He then had another stormer that summer, building a league-winning side, and further strengthened us in the January of that year with Ryan Flynn and Danny Mullen. Paul McGinn was also already signed by the time Ross left us after winning the title. Every manager signs the occasional dud but I don't remember many from Ross.
  14. If I thought our club was media savvy enough, I'd see that as an obvious plant to gauge reaction from supporters. I've never seen our manager speaking in the media at length about a player that isn't ours before - to the extent where he even tells us how close he lives to the training ground. Problem is, I'm not confident we're smart enough to play that game...
  15. A young, fit guy beside Power such as, I don't know, a Cammy Macpherson type?
  16. Usual pish from Goodwin, score a goal then park ourselves on our own 18-yard line even though we can't defend. The penalty was our own fault too. We're completely to blame for our own downfall.
  17. I'm really enjoying the presence of Brophy in our team right now, he seems a constant pest for defenders and he always looks likely to make something happen. None of the three goals he's scored this season have been easy chances, today's was a superb finish, and they're the sort of chances we haven't had anyone to put away in recent seasons. He's hardly prolific, but he's growing into his role and our current set-up seems much better suited to him.
  18. Very good first half, shambles in the second half. All over the fucking shop here.
  19. The most frustrating thing for me with regards to Cammy Macpherson is that he can change a game from the bench - we don't have many of those types of players. It was only at the start of last season he was being lauded as a hidden gem (the likes of A View from the Terrace and Sportscene were raving about him). His ability hasn't disappeared overnight - but he's not had a consistent run of games. He also pops up with the occasional screamer and you just don't know when that might be needed. If he does that a few times in a season he's well worth having, not to mention the cover he provides when others around him are getting sent off or injured. I don't think anyone is suggesting he is a world-beater and I'd be more than happy to loan him out if I felt central midfield was a particularly strong area of the park for us, but it's not.
  20. Hopefully one of those is a manager who actually wants to attack, entertain the fans and score goals. For three seasons now we've failed to address our lack of attacking threat. That all boils down to recruitment and the manager. So much for his early comments about wanting to play with a certain style and flair. Absolute nonsense.
