To keep Moore on for the full 90? It’s unforgivable. I’d definitely be chapping the manager’s door on Monday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fifespud Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Totally agree Spud but the worrying thing is not one of us will be surprised by yet more bizarre decision making. Is he trying to be too clever for his own good. Have to say the boy Walcott was very good today. Walcott looks real quality. I think you’re spot on - too clever for his own good. First 15 minutes looked ok but you knew if we conceded corners we were likely to be under pressure. Raith grow in confidence and end up looking really good. Charlie trying ever more ambitious long passes. Did Moore actually make more than 2 or 3 passes? Not the lads fault though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last week bringing on Kerr in midfield leaving Robertson and Anderson on the bench. This week parachuting Moore in leaving Robertson and Anderson on the bench. How to destroy 4 players confidence. It’s ridiculously bad football and man management. Really quite remarkable. Same here, it's an absolute tombola team picking nonsense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why isn’t Sow the man standing in line with the front post 4-6 yards out defending corners. The young lad Fisher had a shocker at that goal and so did Gowser. If it was any other player doing what Gowser did he’d have been going off his nut at them but nothing much said to him. Doubt his mate the manager did either. Been saying it fir a year now but Gowser shouldn’t be playing in an advance attacking role. Don’t want to be harsh on any young boy but I can’t see how Moore starts today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Hearts game at Dens was good tho. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossBFaeDundee Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Still can't believe he started Moore, even more so that he left him on for the full game instead of Mullen. He must've thought today was going to be a loss anyway or something, that's the only explanation I can think for it. Shocking management, nothing else to it. Obviously McPake should be sacked, anybody can see that, nobody's pretending otherwise. He never should have got the job from day 1. I just think it's pointless to think about every situation like that until his position genuinely becomes untenable. Also, I know I've been considered repetitive, but f**k me if NDD isn't the most chronically awful poster on here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lad has done himself proud and been badly let down by his boss. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like Keyes and Nelms are doing virtually everything right but their managerial appointments. There’s too many good, capable managers from the Scottish game out of work for us not to make a move for them. FFS Tim and John give your investment half a chance to progress! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crawford Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 How did the new boys look? Haven't read the match report and didn't see the game today. Not looking to rock the boat either, but we have to play youth players at some point. They are the future and the club are peddling this academy pish to the US too. Bit sus if we don't play any of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossBFaeDundee Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 (edited) The team can't keep playing 4-3-3 without McGhee, it just can't. Would personally like to see something like this against ICT, plenty of pace and attacking intent surrounding Adam, and two steady holding MFs coordinating the ball.

johnnydun Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Another fuckin tactical masterclass from McPake today. What on earth was he thinking? The mind boggles when we have a pretty comfortable player in Robertson on the bench and (although not a centre half) a very experienced defender in Kerr on the bench. I'm all for giving the youngsters a chance but there's a time and a place. Chasing the league/promotion is not it. Sow is just too inconsistent, he thought he had done his job after 4 mins and felt the need not to win one header after that. No need for McMullen to come off. Just shite. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pandemic affects our club proportionally just as bad.I get that it does but through a combination of us having more ST holders, a significant fans trust, pandemic insurance and wealthy owners it hasn’t affected us in the same proportion as lots of the club in the league. That makes it more frustrating. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
