Superhursty7 Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 I thought Dunfermline caused us lots of problems and seemed to be finding bags of space down our right especially. Could easily have been 2-2 at half time. The gift wrapped 3rd goal came at just the perfect time and seemed to knock the stuffing out of them. You're correct easily could have been 2-2 at half time but after the break Dunfermline were tepid I can only remember one save from a free kick late in the game 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb123! Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Were we brilliant yesterday? Or Dunfermline utter garbage like us on Tuesday night? Or a bit of both?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought you were decent. No more no less. On the other hand for all our pretty play at times, there are massive issues with the balance of our team, and leadership. We genuinely are by some distance the worst team in this league right now. Incredible work from Grant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incredible work from Grant. I thought in final 3rd you looked ok , midfield looked you needed another decent passer in there to help Dorrans , but thought your defence and goalkeeper were shocking , but centre half was the worst by far 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, Dunfermline did sit a bit further back in second half to try to protect their shocking defence 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure exactly who changed what in the 2nd half, but the game didn’t seem anywhere near as open. That said, at 2-1, I wouldn’t liked to have put a bet on where the next goal was coming from - the free gift from the Dunfermline defence was gratefully received (great finishing from Adeloye though!). It’s all about recovering a step at a time for us. Watching a team actually try and play through the midfield with a bit of natural width and support for Adeloye was quite the novelty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grant still hasn’t figured that out. And it not just the fullbacks, at least one of the Center backs is 10 yards inside the opposition half, and he’s confused why we keep conceding goals... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North Terrace Gazza Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 I don’t get the “we only beat Dunfermline” line. They have a very good squad of players and will be nearer the top of the league than the bottom come May. We still look very vulnerable when we leave such large gaps in the middle of the park. First half could easily have finished with us trailing. I still expect the usual suspects to be fighting against relegation and I’m afraid that includes us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 One of the highlights of yesterday was Bradley coming over to take a corner kick and one of the 14 year old Dunfermline neds running down a couple of steps towards him shrieking abuse, before attempting to throw his paper cup at him which quickly caught in the breeze, blew back and hit him Quality entertainment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaisayr Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Loved Duffy encouraging Bradley to go press for the third goal. ‘Go Steven, go Steven!’ - could almost chalk that up as an assist for the gaffer. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re terribly organised and seem to be set up deliberately so we concede goals. If we’re anywhere near the top of the league it will because we’ve sacked grant early on and the next boss performs miracles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VinnyPar Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Obviously Hopkin was/is an absolute bombscare of a manager however I do think Adeloye looks a good find from him, technically very good and good finisher. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
