Brashy's Boots Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 That looked like a team which knew the end is in sight, and by that I mean the current regime. Very few good performances and at times looked like they'd met at 10 to 3. I know we're missing players but we've been pish for weeks. No-one can have been surprised at the result today. I think the players know or at least guess JMcG will be away and so have lost their way. It looks like he has too.This talk of suitable replacements and merry go rounds brings us back to who is out there and who might sneak in under the radar. I've honestly no clue who we might bring in as I suspect we won't be the only club looking for change. How attractive are we now? Time will tell. I only wish this season would end and see some positivity over the summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SirJimmyofNic Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 (edited) Probably need a replacement for Berra as well, dont know how Lang will be when he comes back, Vaughan is the same, we cant carry on with all these injury prone players Edited April 9, 2022 by SirJimmyofNic 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buchan30 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 The question has to be asked, what will make the next 16 games different from the last. Being able to cross a ball into the box and hit a rovers player, more urgency, better defending, not shiteing out of challenges. Tumilty being able to have someone moving for when he looks forward.As an extra, referees that could do a proper job would help as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumswall Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I don't think the ref was too bad today other than the blatent push on varian he let go. I actually think mcglynn would get the recruitment right in the summer but his tactics have been baffling for months now. With 1 win in 16, it doesn't make sense to keep him on. That's even assuming that he wants to. He's finally led a team out and won a national Cup, and considering where we started with him in both spells, it really is the perfect time for him to move on. Iv always been a bit of a mcglynn fan boy but yer teas ready John. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 The season is over. Looking at the remaining fixtures you wonder if we’ll manage another win. 1 win from 14 league games in 2022. That is unbelievably poor. When you consider 8 of those games were at home, that form should see most managers sacked. From that home win over Killie in December I can’t be believe how the season has panned out. What a missed opportunity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buchan30 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I don't think the ref was too bad today other than the blatent push on varian he let go. There was a couple of handballs and other pushes he let go. You can guarantee that had that been one of the rovers players, it would have been a foul and yellow. On the whole the refs have been shite this season. It’s go sound biased, but it absolutely isn’t but the only decent ref i have seen this season was last sunday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The standard of referee's in Scotland is pretty terrible on the whole. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I wonder what the talk in the Board Room is? They can’t be happy with the second half of the season either. Will they stick with McGlynn? If so, why no mention of contract extensions yet? Have they sounded out a replacement? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just seem to have refs that are so inconsistent or useless. I am in no way blaming our ills on the refs, but i do sometimes think they have a bearing on the games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grumswall Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I don't think many will actually agree with me but, tumilty isn't actually a good defender. His strength has always been getting forward on the overlap and getting balls in to the box. Having him and whoever is picked out the hat to play lb pushing forward leaves our defence vulnerable. It is the easiest way to counter how we've played the past two seasons. We haven't had enough pace in the cbs this season to get away with that style of play without having one of the cms dropping in like hendry did last season. Asking dick to play the same way as tumilty when he clearly isn't good enough to do so wasn't going to work. Mackie hasn't been much of an improvement but has gotten better with game time. Young did well enough today but there were a few occasions he was out of position and bene covered for him. The goal came from young being pushed up and bene getting done quite easily as a result of this. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renton Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I'd like to be angry after us losing again. I used to be like a bear with a bad headache after any league loss, a real fucking treat for my mates as I sat and fumed in the pub. Now, I'm shrugging it off. Something snapped with the Goodwillie saga that had been pulled very fucking taut by results through the festive period. I don't care, just now. It's not bothering me. It has always bothered me far too much, and just now it doesn't. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every other teams fans will say the exact same pish as you just have. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
