nelsjfc Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 " userid="81095"] County's midfield 3 Tillson, Paton & Callachan have had a very good day.The exact opposite of ours. Aggressive and battling. We've spent years in this division winning games in that area only to have the likes Butterfield and Crawford hiding most weeks now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Nice summary of why we're down here. Play well, get the lead, concede soft goal, collapse on and off the park. Only positive is that this result surely ends the monotonous drone of the "super Saints" fans who've been claiming we can still finish 9th or higher. We're not dead yet. Need a big response from that but it feels like the closing of a door in terms of reaching 10th. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sainthearted Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 The day the Great Escape died. We're finishing either 11th or 12th. I can't say it's not deserved; we go through phases but we're prone to playing like a Championship side. That said, with Clark in goal I suspect this would have finished 1-1. The biggest concern is our inability to play as a team. I suspect that's partly due to so many new players, but it was also a problem prior to the January window. Between defence, midfield and attack, it's like we're fielding three separate teams with three different objectives every week. I feel the blame for that falls squarely at Davidson's feet. We're like a deer in headlights the moment we reach the opposition's half. No one can think on the ball, everyone wants to get rid of it as soon as it's at their feet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamie_B Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Reagan Charles Cook is just so, so much better than anything any other team in the bottom six has to offer. I felt like for the first half we pretty well marshalled him and Hungbo and stopped them from driving at us too much - but he's got the quality to punish you as soon as he gets a look at goal and that's pretty much exactly what County did. After the third goes in County started to play through us much better - but at that stage we've conceded three from situations that really shouldn't be dangerous - a break from a 50/50 tackle, a long throw that misses everyone and a knock down from a long ball. For my money Clark probably saves the second and third - Parish is just clearly not up to this level. First half hour was fine and it's a nice goal from our perspective. We looked comfortable enough until we lose that goal without creating much of anything, but from then on its a capitulation. Nothing going forward until it is far too late, and yet again absolutely crazy subs. Crawford and Butterfield off for Gilmour and May might have been a start. Sticking Middleton at LWB is never an option. Playoffs at best now unless something miraculous happens. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nelsjfc Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 All got a bit farcical last half hour again. Cifici dropping incredibly deep (playing wide in a three?), two wingers at full back. We seem to have such a lack of plan to chase games. Big issues today a keeper that isn't anywhere good enough and too many midfielders that aren't mobile or tough enough to battle in this division. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matty-RCFC Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Calm heads required, 30 mins left and its only 2-1. A draw isn't devasting. Callum Davidson: "I'm going to chuck Middleton in at wing back against Hungbo"Spot on. As soon as this happened, game was done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radford Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Best team on day won. They played better but thought they just wanted it a bit more as well. Could post-mortem it all but it doesn't really matter at this stage. Just need to keep looking to pick up points when we can. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
akuram Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 Sorry but with zander in goals today we would have probably won that as Elliot Parish should have done better with all three goals today. Second half we were poor and it showed how much we get from Murray Davidson and Liam Craig on their game. At least Dundee are as bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

silver Posted February 26, 2022 Share Posted February 26, 2022 (edited) I expected a draw at best today so delighted with the result. Thought it was a poor first half, but we looked so much better in the second. Regan is having a great season and both his goals today were excellent. Credit to Hungbo for his neat finish. With Dundee losing as well means we push further away from the bottom. Credit to the players and management for the result and a hard earned 3 points.
