The_Kincardine Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 The day before my 58th birthday and we're clearly the Premiership form team with 4 straight wins. Can our interim manager, one of the few players who has ever won an international trophy with Scotland, go nap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 5-0 rangers. We are shit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forest of Dean Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Interesting game really. We really struggled against them last season but they look worse off so far this term. Hopefully we can make it 5 in a row which would be the best winning run of any Scottish Premiership side this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just played 45 minutes at home, with virtually four players up front, against a team happy to sit on the edge of their own box, and we didn't even manage a shot. If your capable of getting a cross in the box, and someone is capable of heading the ball, you'll get two or three without breaking sweat. We'll likely bring about ten fans to this, btw.

bennett Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 We'll still be missing several key players for this one and bare bones in midfield, so it's going to be hard going against a good counter attacking side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Woolshed Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Don’t turn up and take a 3-0 loss. As above. We are utter shit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've not scored a goal on the counter all season, probably because we've no pace in the team. We'll set up with about nine defensive players, sit off you until you score. Push up a wee bit and concede a stupid goal, then it'll be a case of how many Rangers fancy getting. I doubt you'll shit the bed at the thought of scoring four like Aberdeen did tonight, so this could legitimately end about 5-0. We're just stumbling our way to January and hoping things aren't critical by then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do I get the impression you're not joking ? Then again you might actually be telling the truth, after all the bears have had a lot of pain inflicted upon them over the last 6 years.

Radford Posted December 14, 2017 Share Posted December 14, 2017 I'd usually muse on the team selection in these threads but when you reflect on last night in particular, it doesn't matter what eleven players are picked on Saturday, I just want to see the basics displayed and a proper St Johnstone performance. Although we ultimately lost the game, we fought back from 2-0 down to draw level at Ibrox in March, that's the sort of character I want to see on display. Until we get back to replicating what we've done well in recent years, it won't matter what system or players are deployed. No league win at Ibrox since 1971. Stranger things have happened...

The issue for me is I think that was pretty well our best XI last night. The only real change I'd have had was Millar (at his fit best form) for Paton, but it seems pretty clear that's not going to happen any time soon. Not really sure where we go from here. We really need to scramble a couple of wins from these four remaining games this year and rebuild as best we can in January. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloPerth Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 I'm heading through to this for some reason. I've never seen us win at ibrox, unfortunately missed both league cup victories. This would appear to be an unlikely match for that to change the way we've been playing. Would be a great game to take something from to give the squad a much needed confidence boost. I've no idea how we'll line up, but I'd bring Mannus back in, and Alston who has done well against Rangers in the past. I haven't heard any news on Muzz, I'm guessing he'll be out? Mannus Shaughnessy Anderson Gordon Tanser Alston Millar Craig Wotherspoon Scougall Maclean It obviously won't be anything like that. I'm expecting the back 4 to be the same as Wednesday, and Paton to start alongside Liam, unless young McLean gets thrown in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 Aye Muzz is out for 4 weeks - the manager confirmed so earlier. Gordon for Foster and Paton for Millar ( ) and you're probably not far off with that 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
