For f**k sake we've ad a striker play in goals away to ayr who conceded less than in Tuesday. Our defence was going mano mano, when Stevo was in goals 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank f**k Eric is gone. We actually on paper landed not to badly with cat as mcgurns replacement. It's just been unfortunate the injurys he's had. I still wish our supporters weren't such moaning b*****ds at games or I think laidlaw could and would have been a very good keeper for years to come with us. He ended up at Hibs, so I doubt we'd have had any chance regardless of whether or not the fans got fed up of him chucking goals away every week. He was his own worst enemy - couldn't recover from mistakes and kept making them until he was dropped. All 'keepers make mistakes but by god he was painful after making one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Think we could punt Cowdenbeath a bag of bibs and get McGurn back in January? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was his own worst enemy - couldn't recover from mistakes and kept making them until he was dropped. All 'keepers make mistakes but by god he was painful after making one. I know what you mean but it was evident the raw talent he had. If he had been playing regularly for us I don't think he would have went to hibs to sit as second or third choice. He needed a break from the fans and a coach to get behind him to sort out his mentality with all that.Imo Brian is a better prospect than laidlaw was so I just hope the same mistakes aren't made again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumswall Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Think we could punt Cowdenbeath a bag of bibs and get McGurn back in January? He's had his day unfortunately. Would still have him ahead of Smith mind you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Slightly alarmed to see Liam Buchanan in the FFP saying ‘we don’t become a bad team overnight’ I think Gary Locke is still muttering that as he wanders the empty halls of Tynecastle, wondering where everyone has been for the past six months and looking for a hand to shake. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wardy Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 I like how we went on about still not getting a penalty before the East Fife game. Last 2 games we’ve had two conceded. JUST GIE US A FUCKING PENALTY.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 The frustrating thing about Lennox's injury (well apart from the fact it was incurred against Brora Rangers!) was that he'd made two outstanding saves against Stranraer and Brora that probably only McGurn could've pulled off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christ. Alongside Smith's Lockian use of subs (Hmmm, we aren't winning the ball in the middle of the park, better get another forward on), Bobby Barr doing another post August disappearing act, a completely unbalanced midfield, Kevin McHattie (just Kevin generally, tbf) and a fucked up goalkeeping situation it's hard to see what's changed from last season. Only having the basic intelligence to play Vaughan is so far setting Smith apart from Gary "the human embodiment of the humming noise a refrigerator makes" Locke.

Ebanda's Handyman Services Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Are we not all getting just a wee bit carried away? We've been shite and still picked up wins and Ayr are only 3pts ahead of us having played a game more. January will bring about a chance to address our squad frailties and we'll push on from there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not massively. A number of our issues are within Smith's power to change now: 1. Bobby Barr is not undroppable. 2. Don't try and shoehorn Spence and Buchanan together. It ain't working, it isn't suddenly going to click 3. The club sold Callachan, no other combination of midfielders will provide the coverage over the park he did. Play a midfield 3. 4. Mckay isn't going to get any more confident if you don't give him game time, better a centre back at centre back than Scott Robertson. 5. Drop Graeme Smith as soon as humanly possible. We've been absolutely dire for weeks, and some of it is out of form players and some of it is the system, yet Smith has persisted with that system, even though he has evidence that changing the system has worked, given the positive performances (and results) gained against Arbroath and St.Mirren. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rover the Moon Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 Think folk expecting a rush of signings in January to cure our ills are being deluded. Sim won't chuck money at this (see the will-we-won't-we saga of signing a CB before being scuppered by medical bills) so I reckon we'll be pretty much going with what we've got until May. Maybe one young loanee but that's unlikely to have the effect of Connolly, Longridge, Hardie etc from McKinnon's January window.Strap yourselves in folks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted November 17, 2017 Share Posted November 17, 2017 I saw the team up at the Michael Woods institute today. Always gives me a buzz to see them. Benedictus must be near to a return. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see a few folk mentioning January signings. Are we forgetting that we're skint and playing in League 1?Will the January signings happen this year? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
