Hetherington also been v good middle of the park and good at left back for us too. I swear something just happens to players when they go to Falkirk, you lot seem cursed They weren't cursed with Brad McKay. He's always been fucking shite. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It made sense to move Henderson into midfield last year but I reckon having a settled back line & goalkeeper next year will be key to keeping clean sheets. I genuinely don't think it's a lack of ability with Henderson & Donaldson and they just need games together and less chopping-and-changing around them. Or just sign a better centre back 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

18BAIRN76 Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 Maybe a bit of a difference for Hetherington playing in a team which is more defensive-minded, has less of the ball and has to dig in, compared to playing for Falkirk in League One when, for a significant number of of games at least, you’re going to have more possession and be on the front foot? 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodwall cat Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 Henderson had an absolute shocker against Clyde in the 3 each game when Jordan Allen bullied him senseless. His main issue is despite being a big lad he isn't physical enough for me which sees him getting outmuscled by smaller opponents. Hetherington suits playing for sides trying to stay in a league compared with sides trying to win one it's as simple as that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You still need someone in middle of park to tidy up and do the dirty work though. Chris Hamilton last year was absolutely unbelievable for us doing that. I just think it’s not worked out at Falkirk and that’s fine, maybe there was too much pressure on him there. Seems like it’s a very pressured environment with you desperately trying to get back up. Really enjoyed watching you in the LC against Hibs at start of season but seems like your arses collapsed a bit towards the business end of the season and spectacularly in the play offs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on just like the other ten, apart from Mackie who isn’t afraid to get stuck in, never seen so many players that be more suited to the ballet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

18BAIRN76 Posted May 17, 2023 Share Posted May 17, 2023 I get the argument about players not being able to handle the pressure of playing for us in League One, but it’s not unique to us. Dunfermline will have had exactly the same pressure, they just signed a team that could handle it and went about their business ruthlessly. We’ve got too many shitebags who can’t cope, hence the necessary rebuild. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
