Other than that, my understanding is that Baller isn't too far off with his account. Queens did block the Hearts move for Cowie, and we have to wonder why, when he's clearly not considered yet up to starting for our first team. I haven't claimed otherwise tbh. I disputed the fact that Hearts had agreed terms but pulled out because they didn't want "bad publicity" even when they were apparently in the right and Queens were apparently in the wrong. It makes absolutely no sense. Edited September 2, 2023 by 19QOS19 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wrong team selection by Bartley and wrong game plan if you lose 2 early goals like that. Good to see we revived 2nd half but we are giving ourselves too much to do. Will be nowhere near promotion if we continue to be 2 goals behind at HT and end up losing home games. I assumed Ambrose was carrying a knock. Other than that I don't know who else he should have started that never? Cochrane possibly but again I assume he wasn't 100%. The game plan had nothing to do with us gifting them 2 goals tbh. Again, individual errors. Just been told Ambrose was late arriving. If true, I'd say he's let us down big time today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just not at all convinced by McKay and McLelland as a pairing. Fullbacks/wingbacks were poor today. No wonder McIntyre didn't make it out second half. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, I don't think NW was particularly guilty of doing that. He was just answering Otis' question about when we last had a manager assemble a side with a clear vision of what he was doing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had been hoping that McKay would come back from his injury and step up but it doesn't look like it's going to happen. Not sure what Houston has done to deserve never getting a minute - he seemed fairly solid to my eyes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think McClelland is raw as you say and I'm in no way defending McKay, but McClelland lost his man for the first today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he'd massively benefit from a wise head next to him. Also, when is Brydon due back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overthetop Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 So 8 goals conceded at home in the league already. How many have the opposition had to really work for? unacceptably poor defending again. Thats down to the manager. What do they do in training all week? just do the basics and defend. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Mr Bartley comes out and says he got his game plan and team selection wrong hopefully he will learn from it . Armbrose was late not good enough speak to him on Monday fine him but don't drop him from the team . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShadyLane Posted September 2, 2023 Share Posted September 2, 2023 (edited) First half was shocking today. No urgency and the goals were poor. Improved after Ambrose came on and getting to 2-2 early-ish in the second half you felt we'd go on and win it. Lost the momentum when McKechnie went off (did he pick up an injury?) then when we lost the third the wind went out our sails. Still had a couple of good chances to equalise though. However, just an annoying performance rather than truly worrying I'd say. Edit: meant to say McKechnie and Connolly were causing havoc for a while at the start of the second half. Clearly had been given a rocket by MB. Edited September 2, 2023 by ShadyLane 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm intrigued to find out how you think MB is to blame for Cammy Logan's indecision for the first, the new LB making an arse of it before McClelland totally loses his man for the second and the shocking lack of basic tracking for the 3rd? Unless of course your answer is "he assembled the squad", I don't know how shocking individual mistakes are MBs fault tbh. 10 minutes ago, ShadyLane said: First half was shocking today.

Felt like he was too eager to bring on the new guy but it was a bad decision. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
