Dabrowski is an excellent shot stopper but doesn't put much confidence in anyone when dealing with every thing else, iv not figured out if that's just his style and he's just that composed (without looking it) or if he's just inexperienced. I thought your 'keeper looked alot worse today though to be honest. Albinson has dropped off from last season imo. He’s usually very assured on the ball but he was a bit iffy today. I’m wondering if it’s correlated with the departure of our usual goalkeeping coach or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oceanlineayr Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 (edited) Much better second half from Ayr, but that chronic spell in the first half where Raith scored twice in about 3 minutes was the killer. Our defensive play is utterly chronic at times. Albinson didn't have a real chance with either. (personally thought the 1st was a great finish.) As for the referee, it's genuinely impressive that there is a referee out there worse and more bafflingly inept than Colin Steven.

The perfect example of how lost we look a lot of the time and how soft we are as a unit. Second half was better, mostly because we utilised Dowds well and tried to get the ball out to Murphy or Chalmers more often. But aye, f**k all has changed really. Our approach is way off and we are so easy to break through. When defending, the shape of the our midfield and defence never seems right. It was the same as the Partick game. Terrible positioning and lack of discipline when out of possession, particularly in midfield. Not helped by the obvious weakness in the RB position. I would bite your hand off for 8th right now.

Think that is a bit harsh. The goals raith scored were poorly defended yes but the difference Is we 100% looked better than raith in the second half. We created more chances today than the partick game and we didn’t put our heads down and completely implode. This team won’t be challenging for promotion but the performance in the second half shows we can give teams that are well above us a go 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ehhhh... there are two gates at the SRE. The one closer to away fans was open so if that's the reasoning it seems counter intuitive.

Trogdor Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 Our defence is hopeless and hapless in equal measure. Fucking brutal and made of absolute jelly. Its not like we were under masses of pressure today. In the first half, Raith were stronger and faster. They moved the ball about well. The first one, Easton has too much space and hits a very nice shot into the corner. The second followed within 3 mins and the defending was like keystone cops. Everyone of the backline was culpable. At the other end we did create chances and on another day we might have got something out of the game. That being said, given where we are it's not good enough. In 2023 we've won 4 home league games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted September 30, 2023 Share Posted September 30, 2023 A couple of positives: Big Dowds looks a handful. He had a very nice finish. Chalmers corners are a real weapon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, got a nice chorus of Ayr is a shithole from some wallopers walking back to my car. When I pointed out the irony of someone from Fife even thinking such a thing I had some gap toothed danger asking me to come and repeat that whilst walking away. Least they had a day oot 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not sure as it’s something he was coping with at the start of the season. I thought he was poor for a couple of the goals against Thistle and he looked a bit iffy again today. Got very lucky at a corner in the second half when he came charging off his line and got nowhere near the ball. It feels silly criticising him as he’s far from our biggest issue and is still good enough for this level but I think it’s maybe fair to wonder if his form has anything to do with Timmins leaving. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We definitely had more chances than the partick game. Regardless of that we actually made a game of it which is the more important thing. We went 2 down and gave up against partick Well raith are 2nd so they are technically well above us right now like it or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
