FrankChickens1 Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Talk about glasses all you want but based on that I'm not at all looking forward to seeing McClelland and Sanders in the top tier. McClelland was getting away with ridiculous fouls on every long ball and Saunders looked a bit cavalier. Less said about Smith and Macpherson the better. But - 3 (cup) points in opening game of season - so things could be, and have been, worse. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJFCtheTeamForMe Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 (edited) I know it's only one game but they've gone back to the very same game plan and system that resulted in last season being terrible to watch. I know slightly different players as well but eerily similar to even the Davidson era. I just don't get the fascination with going back to the same failing setup. Webb is keen to get more bums on seats. You're not going to achieve retaining the current ones never mind new ones if we're in for more turgid bodies behind the ball and steal a 1-0 at home.

RandomGuy. Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Aye the shape clearly doesn't work and he's not made the signings that change that, IMO. Essel looks good and what we need, roughly. CBs were hard to judge as never under pressure really. McPake can't play regularly, just nowhere near it. Forgot Smith was playing (as always really). Interested to see how they play in the next couple. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with all this really. There should have been an awareness from Levein and Kirk that the support were absolutely scunnered with 5-2-3 and cautious, negative football. What we don't need or want is more of it. Between the teams I think there was 3 shots on goal in the entire first half. That is not entertainment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Der Panzer Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 Don’t worry lads - Utd will be going right back down based on today. You just need to navigate a playoff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Der Panzer Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 I had to watch the Utd game as the Dundee stream was giving me motion sickness. They didn’t just lose - they were pumped and look devoid of any pace and quality. It was very pleasing. Some goal your boy scored - that your new CH? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll see how we get on v Morton before I jump on any "laugh at United" train. Suppose they're hindered by Goodwin too, but that's offset by us having Kirk in charge. Cameron one of the new CBs aye. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly the issue that did for Davidson and he had credit in the bank with a double win.

Broughty Posted July 13 Share Posted July 13 The defence did all that was required and looked fine to me. We had a lot of first picks missing today but looked quite solid. Brechin played well and gave us little time on the ball until 2.0 when we took control. Let’s see how it goes. Premier sports coverage was first class and well worth the £9.99. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
