AL-FFC Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Changes were too late in the game, it was a knap that goal was going to hit us 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFC 1876 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Kyle Connell was brilliant today got right stuck in about our defence and also was in the right position to finish the goal off. We didn't deserve to lose the game but we were so average that we only have ourselves to blame. Macdonald had Morrison in his back pocket when he came on. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Worst performance of the season so far. Leaving your better players on the bench isn't a great idea. Francis is as bad as any striker we've had in the last 10 years btw.Dowds is no better, at least Francis is mobile. Leaving Morrison and Alston on the bench would have given them a big lift before a ball is kicked. It is a squad game when the replacements are good enough. Only two positives. Partick lost and hopefully it will be the last we see of Leitch 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadwell Dog Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Worst thing is that if you're having an off day against a side who have parked the bus you at least have to make sure you come away with a point and move on. Like last season though we seem happy to give sides that come for a point all 3. Dreadful stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaggerG Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Got exactly what we deserved. Let's face it though, it was hardly a surprise! Defence, Gomis and Connolly were fine, the rest, including the subs, were completely pish! Having said that, we were in control and played not too badly for the first 20 minutes or so. We'll need to do that for 90 next week while taking our chances too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 The knicker wetting responses to losing 1 game in 9 are hilarious. The final ball and link up play just wasnt there today, against a very stuffy opposition. Repeat that 20 points from each of the two sets of 9 fixtures and we'll be absolutely fine 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluegrass Bairn Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Woeful. Dowds and Francis utterly impotent, offered no threat at all. Far too easy for the Airdrie defence. Alston and Morrison, our two flair players who should be stand-outs in this league, worryingly shite. What a waste of an afternoon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The midfield needs to be Morrison, Alston, Gomis and one of Connolly/Telfer. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last year we had McManus at least but just now without Keena we're needing to create about 15 chances to have the chance of scoring one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can spin it that way and be very negative if you want or on the flip side I could say first loss in 9 games and 20 points from our first 9 games, as mentioned repeat that another two times and that will most likely win you the league. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A fair point tbh. Probably just a bit pissed off as I could see it coming! Imperative we get a positive result next week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is we've learned feck all from last season. It's still the same old story in games like this. If we had a decent forward we would probably have scored in the first 20 mins and that would've changed the game but our top scoring striker has two fecking goals which is nowhere near good enough. Should be an easy game plan for Partick next week. Just park the bus and we'll give you 3 points. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie Perrin Posted December 20, 2020 Author Share Posted December 20, 2020 Well that was a bit shit. Airdrie doing what Airdrie have done for decades and we came up short in dealing with it. Can't complain but what a missed opportunity given yesterdays results. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure they were really chances.One was a great strike from telfer the other two were dreadfully defended set pieces. None of them were scored by our strikers. It worries me that we are now going to waste this good start. When teams come for a point it's imperative you score first and early. Otherwise the longer it goes the more confidence the opposition has and we're always lible to lose a goal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
