Aye, we've been pish and it's horrible, but enjoy it when we win and played well. That was during the game when I posted that. It's a much needed 3 points but you would expect to beat a team 7 points adrift at the bottom of the league. Next week will tell us if we really have got things sorted outWe need to start going on a run as DU are their for the taking. Today's result and improved performance underlines how ridiculous Houston's team selection was last week. We aren't a big enough club that we can stick 2nd string teams out in Scottish cup matches.Especially when we rely on income from these games and transfer cash to break even. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 I'd like to think we wouldn't but we were awful against them at East end. For 20 minutes. I thought we were comfortable outside that 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadwell Dog Posted January 28, 2017 Share Posted January 28, 2017 We hardly looked like scoring for the majority of the 90mins. We can't afford to play like that again. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was hardly a second string team though, was it? 3 changes this week from last, Leahy, Grant & Baird replacing Gallagher, McCracken & Craigen. It was more down to the formation last week I felt and we were well in the game until Morton scored. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would guess that he had an injury as Houstie does seem to like to have 2 CBs on the bench. If he was fit he'd probably have left out Kidd or Craigen? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't understand leaving Kidd out as he was playing ok till he got injuried,not a world beater but I think he is better than Muirhead at RB. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gives me the fear defensively. I think wee Smith would have given him a hard time today. I would certainly have had him on the bench though but, as I say, he may have been one of the possible fall guys if McCracken was available? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised at that TBH. Apparently the coaches aren't too happy with Luca's condition so makes me wonder why he was in the squad and McCracken wasn't? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your going to struggle big time with Watson and McCracken at the back and craigen anywhere in the team. Only Houston knows why Grant was on the bench as he's surely got to be one of the first names on the team sheet every week. Gallachers a fantastic prospect but Leahy was very unlucky to get dropped in the first place as there were a number of others who should've been benched first. It was a ludicrous choice of players and tactics and has cost us a decent wad of cash. Houston has been bleeting about not having cash to spend and yet he may just have got some if he hadn't made a mess of things against morton.

Anthony Fitzgerald Posted January 29, 2017 Share Posted January 29, 2017 Get over it. Managers, much like players and any other humans, make mistakes. The important thing was he learned from his mistakes and rectified it yesterday. I'm no Houston lover but it's like a broken record on here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taking him far too long to rectify his mistakes. He hasn't managed to get rid of Craigen or Kidd yet for starters. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
