Took a howler from their keeper for us to go infront and a howler from our keeper to level the game. It was chances galore at the start of the game but then it became cross, cross, cross and eventually possession/see the game out which we failed to do today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it wasn’t for Hogarth’s big saves last week , we’d have drawn/lost that too. All it takes is for a couple of draws and Hamilton wins (like today ) and it’s opened up again. 3 away games in a row too to some difficult places. Exactly. Two point swing to Accies today. That’s just fact. To avoid “heads gone” territory though, it’s still looking good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bridge of allan bairn Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 We really are making more of a meal of this closing out the league than we need to. Why on earth drop Hogarth who played well last week? Why drop Henderson, when every time we do we drop points? Rotate only when the game is won. 19 chances again today and only 1 taken. We really do need a composed finisher next season. I know we've scored a lot of goals across lots of players but it's days like today you need a proper finisher. The only times we drop points and struggle are when we are trying to appease everyone in the squad. Be RUTHLESS with the best starting 11 every time! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy1876 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Frustrating one and this switching of goalies is mind boggling. But in the end we need 13 points to win the league and have plenty room for some draws to get there. Unbeaten run continues 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falkirkbairn23 Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Thought we started pretty well to be honest but didn't take any chances - Miller and McCann were brilliant down that left side. After that we were pretty poor. Annan were always going to be happy with crosses into the box considering they had 3 centre halfs on. McIver has been brilliant this season but today I thought highlighted his limitations. Anyway, not too arsed considering Long will be away and we are still unbeaten in March and on course to win the league by a canter. Willie Gibson is a p***k. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilostmyself Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 Thought we were very wasteful (which despite our success we have been most of the season), first half especially. Was just one of those days where the ball always fell to an Annan defender and we didn't switch it up enough. Need to improve on that against tougher opposition and the rat b*****d midweek. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree- I like Maciver but we will be made to pay in the championship if he continues to miss so many chances. We will need a better option there imo. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roboccop Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 When all the glory seekers start to turn up then you are bound to get an element who don’t support the team through thick and thin. We want them to come but they are going to be more fickle. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loads of chances in the first 20 minutes and plenty 2nd half I thought second half was a hard watch. At the end of the day, we should’ve won the game but there was the odd warning that we might concede and we did. I hope Morrison is okay. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Kinnear Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 We drew at Edinburgh, got a kick up the arse and went on a winning run. That goal at the death today will have hurt the players and hopefully will be what spurs them on to have this all wrapped up in a few weeks. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie Perrin Posted March 2 Share Posted March 2 1 hour ago, Tea and Busquets said: Folk have every right to boo that performance. The keeper is dug meat and created very little against them. The last 10 minutes we couldn’t even pass it to each other. As Sir Alex once said “they get plenty praise, so they’ll get the criticism when they deserve it”. We could/ should have been 4 or 5 up at half time with the amount of clear chances we created! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
