yoda Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Yes. I take it the fact we just got pumped 4-0 the week before doesn't register with people. And the complete lack of confidence away from home Before today, County had lost more home league games than St Johnstone had away games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dingdong1929 Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Only the one booking today I think, we've been picking up quite a few so that's another good sign! Being more solid, there'll be less desperate challenges being made, so less bookings I imagine. Its ok to be impressed by that deduction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 "Results don't show the whole picture." "Recent results don't mean anything." And "our away record coming into this was awful." In the same post? Jesus Christ, I'm out. County have been playing fairly well and losing out by the odd goal. We've been awful and varied between getting completely hammered and shitfesting draws. Performance over results Before today, County had lost more home league games than St Johnstone had away games. Look above Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamamafegan Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 My quote was something along the lines of "When we click we're easily one of the strongest sides in the league". I'll let you read it again and then try another approach at this random attempt at "trolling" me, whatever the reason behind it I hope you get over them soon, as you're no use at it and it makes you more tedious than usual we're easily one of the strongest sides in this league, especially at home. That is what you said, absolutely nothing there to do with us clicking. I'm not trying to troll you, I'm simply saying you're wrong in thinking we are one of the best sides in the league - because we aren't, and todays result proves this.

Fife Saint Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Something is amiss and I'd be surprised if it was just Steven MacLean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sure I had said it was when we clicked, regardless of this I still believe we are one of the best sides when we get going. For what its worth we're likely struggling due to the MacLean injury more than the tactics themselves. Hes an integral part of how we play and without him we look far too direct and clumsy (if thats the right word) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honest Saints Fan Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 I thought County's tactics were spot on. They defended excellently too. Our first shot on target was the 85th minute lulz. Oikonomou is glorious eh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 A few people on WAP saying there was St Johnstone fans spitting on Richard Brittain today. Vile if true, although not at all surprising these days Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bunglebonce Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Ross County were always favourites coming into this game. If you see it differently then you're either incredibly naive or incredibly arrogant ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wyvis Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 Defensively, I think a clean sheet on Saturday should be the target. 1-0 County. Optimistic, but achievable, and it would do wonders for confidence at home - we need to turn Dingwall into a fortress again! Good stuff. Solid defending from both sides, neither keeper really threatened. Had 0-0 written all over it until they switched off at the end there, credit to De Leeuw for his part in the goal. Thought Stevie May had a very quiet game. Of the two, Hasselbaink looked much more lively and threatened us on the counter several times. MacLean was great today, thoroughly deserved his motm. Great to hear the stadium erupt with positive noise for Richie when he was taking that corner right in front of their fans, getting all sorts of abuse thrown at him.

morrison Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 No worries, think it was: Fraser Gordon (RB) Boyd MacLean Iko (LB) Brittain (RM) Ketts Carey Cooper (LM) Slew Glen Then De Leeuw subbed in for Glen, likely to play in behind Slew. Then Tiders on for Slew.... assuming Tidser into CM with De Leeuw playing as striker. Who then mugged Frazer Wright and squared it for Carey :-) Seems everyone played well, with MacLean getting MoM!! Not been a fan of his, but that's great news. Radio full of praise for him and Boyd all game, particularly Boyd's handling of May. Lot of promising signs today, including Cooper and Glen. Aye, Partick game and league table both looking more attractive now. Makes a bit more sense. The way others had been talking pre-match made me think it was maybe Cooper on the right with Ketts RB and Gordon LM, which seems quite experimental. Didn't see either side as particularly strong favourites for this one, but I'd probably have been happy enough with a point beforehand. The Saintees recent form has been poor, but notwithstanding that, if we hadn't won on Wednesday there's no doubt they'd have been backed by plenty. Who cares though, three points for us. Hurrah!

Loki Posted January 4, 2014 Share Posted January 4, 2014 A great three points for us, and two wins on the spin will give great confidence going into next week's game against Partick. Oikonomou is such a good player. To the saintees fan that spat on Richard brittain you're an absolute disgrace to a largely well liked club. Yes he didn't want to move to you in the summer but to be reduced to criminal behaviour because of this is shocking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
