Ding Dang Doo Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Ayr should've had more. Miles ahead of us and will go on to deservedly win the league now. Night and day between the teams. Barry Smith really doesn't have a clue. We're a team with no shape and style. He has absolutely no tactical awareness and clearly must be watching different games to us fans. How the f*ck does Bobby Barr yet again get the full 90. His decision to remove Hendry was a joke. No matter what happens this season that guy cannot be our manager going forward.

Frank conner Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 If we lose Tues then it' definitely over I'd be considering smiths position now. We have been poor for sometime now I have no confidence going into the playoffs with him in charge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 We clearly aren't going to sack Smith even if he did make a rip-roaring c**t of it today. There are several problems right now that need to be addressed ASAP, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGuigan1978 Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 By the end of that game today, Rovers had four strikers on the park, but absolutely no plan on how to make use of them. It all felt Gary Locke-esque. If it hadn’t been for Jordan Hart chucking two in during the first meeting, we wouldn’t have beaten Ayr once this term. They’re considerably better than us.

kvz2000 Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Well done Ayr , top team in the league at the moment and seem to find it easy to beat Raith so number one spot there for the taking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted March 10, 2018 Author Share Posted March 10, 2018 Yep Ayr have been better side in the head to heads. They will go on to win the league in my view. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zaltan Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Biggest issue is the manager, no idea on a style of play other then kick the ball long and hope, no idea of playing the players in their best positions to get the most out of them, his subs today and in the past is of a manager that is throwing darts blindfolded and hope that something happens, how he sub Zanatta and left Barr on is a man that has no idea of football tactics and how to manage a team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mugen_power Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 As much as Shankland could have walked for the tussle earlier...Furtado could also have been sent off for his unnecessary challenge on Boyle with no attempt to win the ball, he went straight for Boyles knee It's well seen he learned to play with Airdrie...dirty b*****d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted March 10, 2018 Author Share Posted March 10, 2018 Issue is also the defence. The way we were playing was fine to win this league if we kept the watertight defence. We are now conceding 2/3 goals per game and ever since Benedictus has come back we look awful. Not suggesting it's his fault, but there has been a clear drop. 8 goals in 4 games conceded since he came back in. Also I think the likes of Vaughan have not delivered enough. May well be he isn't as good as we thought over a consistent basis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why choose a left back who's played no games in months for a big game like this when Murray has played virtually all season there and done well and McKay has been excellent in centre. His decisions at time defy logic.Half time we bring on Court. Where the hell did that come from? I'm not saying I wouldn't play Court but Smith hadn't had him on for 2 months then does that.The worst thing is tonight Smith won't acknowledge the fans who have wasted yet another day away.

ayrmad Posted March 10, 2018 Share Posted March 10, 2018 Did the Raith team bus not make it to Ayr today. So many good performances and watching big Jamie' delight at scoring was worth the £16. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
