Mackie The Staggie Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 1 hour ago, Sensible Soccer said: Well, what are folks thoughts on County's performance in the match against Killie today? After a bright opening 15mins where we could/should have scored. I thought that that was the worst I seen us play in a very long time, not 1 shot on goal in the whole 2nd half, against a very poor Killie team, that were there for the taking imo. There seemed a real reluctance to commit players forward to support any attack, then the whole defence would sit far too deep and invite Killie onto them, when out of possession. Also substitutions were far too late in a match where things were clearly not working. Really.......REALLY. I mean there has been some utter dug shite produced by County this season (and the end of last season) but that 45mins was the "Worst County Side EVER!!!!" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've literally quoted me, put it in bold, then actually misquoted me. Takes a bit of doing that Fair play, if you thought that was acceptable, I disagree. I don't care who the manager was today, for a County team to not manage a shot on goal (into the jailend too) the whole 2nd half was pretty pish. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was more a comment on the hyperbole coming from you.....my apologises that my cynicism and sarcasm doesn't come through. BUT you said It was the worst you've seen County play in a long time...define what a long time is. Does that go back as far as the Hearts game or Motherwell games from last season, if so do you consider the St Johnstone game from this season to be better, and where does the 4-0 defeat by Aberdeen fit into this? Trying to gauge how those performances could be any better than that (which I will admit was rather tepid) second half was. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sensible Soccer🏴 Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 On a positive note, I thought the kids in singing section of the jailend were fantastic, great to see & hear, hopefully we'll get a goal for them on Tuesday against St Mirren 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 I see Adams is talking about lacking certain types of player to play the way he wants. Any ideas what that might be? I’m guessing a Paul Lawson type. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Sims starting yesterday probably backs that notion up. I’ll not be slating style of play until end of January. I’ll certainly not be slating the team after keeping our first home clean sheet in 3 months, never looking like conceding, and then suggesting it’s our worst performance for a long time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t really remember him playing with wingers. I seem to recall Vigurs and/or Britain starting ostensibly wide but coming inside more often than not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrie Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 (edited) The first division winning team was a very narrow midfield. Width was usually the job of Scotty Mo or Gary Miller. I think the only out and out winger we had was Coco. Edited November 26, 2023 by Comrie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matty-RCFC Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 Looking at the makeup of his Morecambe team, he seems to favour a 4-2-3-1. Two inside wingers on the flanks, a 10 and then two destroyers in front of the back 4. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, where do the goals come from? Dhanda's good at creating chances but doesn't score many from open play. Sims's only goals and assists for the club are against League 1 opposition. It's been seven months since Brophy's started three matches in a row. I'm not sure when that will happen again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
