Criticise the substitutions when we get beat, fair enough. Criticise the substitutions when we win, not so fair. If we did have over 20 efforts on goal and 10 on target, I'll take that in every game between now and the end of the season.

Ultimately, getting through is all that matters - but we did still draw with a league two side in normal time. It isn’t good enough, and is a continuation of the worrying signs following the Queens Park collapse. On the bright side the mentality is clearly still there with the players given the late comeback. Next weekend is looking like a huge moment in this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eez-eh Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 If we hadn’t made a habit of playing absolutely shite and struggling past lower league teams in the cup the last year, then the above would make sense. In the context of what people can actually see with their eyes, though, it’s a load of tripe. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say it was more in common with last season's scrape throughs against Pollock and Elgin . Which really isn't good enough as a bigger picture . A one off yes but a trend of near things against lower and non league opposition isn't good enough . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully no Arbroath manager bounce and we actually win a game at home and play with a wee bit of panache. I'm maybe asking for too much with the later tbf. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game today reminded me of the Elgin game last season". It looks like many of us fans remember the games last season... Getting through in the cup is the main thing, but requiring extra-time to get past a part-time team two divisions below us doesn't bode well. Maybe I expect too much though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So by your definition those critical every week about pretty much everything aren't "big" fans (whatever that actually means). Its all about results and come the end if the season, what people will ultimately be judged on. Style and substance less so. We should've finished 5th last season according to a lot on here, we'll be in and around there again imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No chance this squad of players will finish 5th, I'm hoped to be proved wrong but I can't see 4 worse teams than us in the league 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
