HMIP Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Adeloye must be on crutches if he’s not fit enough to start in front of Bryden. Think we started with a midfield diamond with no width, Maxwell at the top of it and Grampa Simpson at the base. Random and awful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 (edited) This has been truly awful. I appreciate Murdoch is out injured but the setup has been dreadful. Right hand side (Houston & McKenzie) we'd be as well having two traffic cones. Kenyon is fucking useless. Maxwell flattering to deceive, as per his recent performances. Bryden trying hard but shouldn't be leading the line. McInroy only passmark due to recency bias. Defence can get in the sea!

UpInTheAyr Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Better effort so far but what a waste of a first half. Literally jeopardising ourselves with it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because he’s not part of the usual manager merry-go-round crew, he seems to have this free pass with a lot of supporters. His lineups and tactics, in the main, are fucking horrific. Winning at Rusty Park appears to have given him more credit in the bank than he deserves. He's had four wins in fifteen games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Terrace Gazza Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Why Bullen started with that team I’ll never know. O’Connor and Adeloye changed the game. Houston and Mackenzie shouldn’t be seen again 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AyrExile Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 (edited) Dodgy team selection, fans predicting the inevitable before a ball is kicked, donate a dodgy goal, make changes second half towards what would be considered a competitive team, play better and get back into the game , score goal and equalise. Left wondering what could have been if normal tactics used from kick off. Rinse and repeat it shouldn’t have been acceptable under Hopkin and Duffy. We are now supposed to be working in a team environment with an MD and analytics head also inputting into the team Edited April 9, 2022 by AyrExile 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashford and Bryden were fantastic second half due to this when used properly. As for the person standing next to me - every time Tomi did something poorly it was constant criticism. Absolute silence every time he did something well. Utter c**t. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Would take a point next week and then go baws oot against QOS. Hopefully McCall does us a favour against Pars and that should be it. It is concerning with the set up at the club Bullen would start the game like that, we could all see it with the line up and that gives a pretty good indication of how wrong he got it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Problemo Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Bullen to play two strikers and two very attacking wide players next week, as it worked second half this week? I wouldn’t be surprised to see him continue to misunderstand what balance actually is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superhursty7 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Surely he's got to drop both Maxwell, McKenzie and if possible Houston a point next week is a minimum and we won't get it with those 3 starting, that was the best O'connor has been since dislocating his shoulder we need to start with him and Ashford out wide and Tomi and Bryden up top and what a moment for Bryden from standing on the SRE to scoring in front of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HMIP Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Credit to the players for digging something out, but I really don’t know what to say about that starting line up. Worse than the actual personnel was the formation. A midfield diamond that somehow managed to have no width while at the same time left us a man short in the middle. I like Maxwell, but no way should be playing at the top of a diamond - he looked completely lost. Hard to avoid the conclusion that Bullen has absolutely no idea what he’s doing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North British Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 The turnaround in the second half was of the scale . Everybody talks about Tomi and O’Conner today and rightly so but I though the introduction of Sam on the left and the opportunity to show us the pace he has ,took us to a different level . It lets us do things at a different tempo . This has to be the formula going forward . We aren’t good enough to pass our way through teams but we have the potential to put pace on the game and get runners going on the flanks . Hopefully big Sean is ok for next week , oh and a word out to big Aero , solid as a rock today . One last thing ,congratulations to a young boy of 17 busting his cherry and at Championship level . This boy might just be our first big money sale once he fills out . 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
