JulioBairn Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Why the f**k we are adapting to play anyone in this league is beyond me. Set up in a way that suits us best and let them worry about us. We are terrified of Cove...how the f**k did it get to this. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFC 1876 Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 One of our best performances of the season last week when we played two upfront. Had it not been for Sammon's shite finishing we'd have won comfortably. If they revert back to one upfront tomorrow i'll be seething as i've already bought the pay per view. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've yet to hear them say "we are going there to play on the front foot, get stuck in and leave nothing on the park" or even something along those lines. All to often it's "we have studied their strengths and weaknesses, we have had a good week training, the boys look sharp blah blah" which invariably means we turn in a total shiteshow of a performance and look like we haven't a clue. Said it before but McCracken is from the Houston stable of "try not to lose" while Miller usually echoes the same sentiment while both trying to be the players best pals and having a laugh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houston was a far, far better coach/manager than McCracken. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 The optimist in me wants to believe he’s said that so Cove won’t know how we’re lining up tomorrow. The pessimist in me believes M&M will shot the bed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 (edited) Interesting to see a competent Premiership outfit in Dundee Utd struggling against that awful Forfar side (who are playing their 5th game in 11 days) It would suggest the expectation that we can just turn up and win easily against these teams is a tad misplaced Saying that, it would be nice to set up to actually attack teams though and I'll be raging if we revert back to 4-5-1 tomorrow Edited April 16, 2021 by NavyBlueArmy1876 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as we hate Hartley he’s a better manager than what we have at the moment and that scares me for tomorrow. I hope To be proved wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glasgow_bairn Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 I think I’ll give this one a miss tomorrow. Coming off a nightshift and with the early kick off I’ll maybe just sleep on.The thought of getting up at 12, watching us absolutely shit the bed against fucking Cove and the subsequently putting me on a downer the rest of the day is just depressing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houston was a far better coach than either of these two. If he was half as good at signing players as he was coaching ones he'd inherited he'd still be in charge. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestfieldBairn Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 It’s almost lost saloon tomorrow. Defeat and it’s Partick’s title 100%. As others have said, teams should worry about playing us. The day we worry about Cove, Airdrie and Dumbarton etc is the day we may as well pack it in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Houston done little of the coaching more McDonough with Houston supervising and stepping when in required. I’m still seething he gave Alex Harris a 2 year deal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m still seething he gave Alex Harris a 2 year deal. Final nail in his coffin unfortunately. As soon as someone says he's the type of player that just needs an arm around the shoulder you know they are never going to work in the Scottish championship. I still remember some numpties creaming over a couple of half decent performances against dross in the league cup group stages before he returned to type. Alarm bells were ringing on the recruitment front as soon as he signed Taylor Morgan even after having him on trial for weeks.
