Tattie36 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 (edited) Don’t want to sound like a broken record but Donnelly and Hilson both had fantastic chances tonight…. guess what????? They missed!!!! they even missed the target. Hilson scores then we come away with at least a point - put your head on it ffs! However, uncharacteristically 3 of their goals were from our defensive f**k ups. Desperately need a midfielder and striker.

But that said, Id have rather had Hilson up front than the empty space left by picking 2 midfielders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
afc_36_0 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Surprised about the defensive errors tonight, unsurprised hilson missed a sitter and jacobs doesn’t look like a very good footballer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedLichtie86 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Yet again Dick looks to Donkelly and Hilson to turn a game around....... and yet again they do next to f**k all positive.Donkelly comes on and his first act is to stand still as the ball flaots towards him. Doesnt even jump. Doesnt try and hold the player back. Just stands. And the Dundee player wins the header. 6'7" of pure lanky streak of pish. Be more useful as a corner flag for how rigid his play is.And what is the point in Hilson. He does not have the ability to compete at this or any level above League 2. Hopeless contribution and that sitter sums him up. Feet planted, not anticipating anything and throws his left leg at it, no composure to take his shot with precision, just havk at it. It was easier to just head the ball in.We really need to get more bodies in. A striker or 2. And a holding midfielder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More damage than good when he is on.f**k it..9 men if we keep Donkelly off too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never want to see Hancock on that wing ever again. Still not convinced about Fosu. More than a couple needed in to try stay in this division. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just some bad decisions made since the league started. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtiekev Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 What was the point in signing Corfe, keeping Paterson, having Linn on the bench, but choosing to play Hancock on the left... Echo everyone's thoughts that Hilson and Donnelly are not good enough, how many goals between them since they have signe? League goals, genuine question? Never gonna repeat last season and staying in the league is the target but we need to improve massively, none of the signings have done enough for me and Hilson and Donnelly should of been moved on in summer 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmokeyJoe Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Only subs he needed to make were gold injured, McKenna poor game for once and Hancock for linn but them changes he made were atrocious and cost us. Jacobs looks absolutely stinking 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedLichtie86 Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Also has Patterson just vanished in dicks eyes? Just some bad decisions made since the league started. Usual. Play a player in League Cup. Player does well and think he might get more game time. League starts and he is lost on the bench behind his favourites.Happened to Hester. Patterson will be the same. Will be loaned out by end of the month so his favourites can get more game time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jacobs looks absolutely stinking McKenna is poor as he is our only attacking threat and teams obviously know that so nullify him at every moment. It creates space for no one else in the team to exploit. McKenna is miles away from being an issue for the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmokeyJoe Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Thought McKenna was poor if we were to keep him on drop him deeper and play instead of Jacobs offered nothing in final 3rd tonight I feel 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timlichtie Posted August 12, 2022 Share Posted August 12, 2022 Also has Patterson just vanished in dicks eyes? Just some bad decisions made since the league started. I would bet on Paterson or Shanks to have buried that chance Hilson missed.We’re way short of quality in midfield and attack compared to last season. Neither of the loan Hamiltons have been replaced. I don’t think we can rely on our defence to get us through the season without the players in front of them to take the pressure off. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shanks is another one I don't get why he hasn't had an opportunity. Rather put the Donkey up top instead? Strong decisions need made before the window closes. I'm not sure Dick will make the right ones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
