  1. Thomson at the back three again. Longridge in midfield with Turner in front of Welsh. I think this is our strongest defensive 11. I hope Davidson's plan works.
  2. I enjoy the madness of the championship but honking refereeing tonight at Thistle game.
  3. I believe this is exactly what he was signed for and if he does that I'll place the traffic cone on his head myself.
  4. I just hope Sheridan & Co help keep us stay up this season and leave quietly in June so that we can invest in better players for next season under Davidson.
  5. I don't know, are they? I usually use the ignore user feature for individual idiots, not entire fans of teams. Key words include Gretna, diddy, tinpot, and the good old crowdwanking.
  6. PA: Please do not feed the troll. The "ignore" list is a fantastic feature. Use it.
  7. I've decided not to look at let alone post anything on the Morton vs QP match day threads from now on. What a bunch of wankers!
  8. I was finally able to see Davidson's 5-3-2 in action in the Morton Game. I think the back three are working very well and I'm very happy to see Tizzard playing as the anchor/libero in between the other two. Thomson has assumed the ball-playing role and Bannon is the stopper. All of this, I think is playing really well to the strengths of each of the three. When Wilson is fully fit, I think he will play in Thomson's position and if/when Fox comes back, he may/will play in Bannon's. The wing backs are still a work in progress although I think McPherson played a good game both defensively and offensively until he was substituted. The new signing Josh Scott looks very strong physically but he was unable to support the attacks from the left flank, which I believe was due to Mckinstry's lack of... well... purpose. That being said, Welsh is doing a brilliant job as no 6 but the two midfielders we have in front of him (Turner and Mckinstry) are not linking up at all. We have seen time and time again number 8 is not Turner's strongest position so if we can release Thomson back into the midfield as a no 8, Turner can play more forward and link up with Dom and Ruari. His high-pressing is also very good so we may chase after more second balls. Dom and Ruari up front... I don't know man. Ruari is an excellent poacher in the box but he's not the kind of centre forward who can pick up and redistribute long balls with his back to the opposition. His pressing is good but not enough when Dom drops deeper into the midfield immediately after we lose the ball. Sorting out what we do with/without the ball in the second and third zones is the manager's job and I think we will see an improvement very soon. Last but not least, CALUM FUCKING FERRIE all the way man. What a player! The board must do everything they can to tie him down for at least another two years.
  9. 100% mate. I obviously don't know how he is in training but he is absolutely honking on the pitch. I thought we might have landed on a talented player with possible sell-on potential (provided that we extended his contract) when we signed him but I was wrong. He is now in the extend his contract or leave him out of the squad zone and I think the latter would benefit the team more.
  10. He's not wearing a performance vest? Who is he??? Edit: He does look like Sheridan
  11. Have you alerted the bookies? They may need to change the odds.
  12. So with this latest addition, we have Paton, Williamson, Crole, McLeish, and Hinds in the striker pool. Deep enough?
  13. He was. Didn't sound like he was ready to play as he has been training with the team only for a week (at least that's what I heard Davidson say)
  14. I hope you're right. I think (anyone noticed how many times Davidson says "I think" in his interviews? If someone invented a drinking game, we would all be pissed) we have signed enough players to give the team a fighting chance for the remainder of the season. I'm still sad to see the way Spong was released, though.
  15. What (slightly) amazes me is that apparently the guy had been training with the team for two weeks and not one bit of rumour/news leaked.
  16. I thought we were going to sign a more experienced striker
  17. Just watched Joshua Scott's post-match interview. Sounds & looks like a tough b*****d. I like him haha
