mozam76 Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 (edited) If St Johnstone are genuinely as bad as you guys are suggesting, then I would hope we would be good enough for a win here. We’ve been very good in plenty enough games this season to say that we can win it. Having said that, our recent run has been so poor. SO poor. It’s seen us look devoid of confidence, devoid of ideas, it’s seen our manager look and sound increasingly frustrated and bemoan things as being his fault, yet when the time comes to make changes he doesn’t do so. Guthrie in for Anderson being a case in point. I’ve said it before on other posts, Martindale knows far more about the game and his players than I ever will, but that decision in particular will never make sense to me. Anyway - 2-1 Livi, more in hope than expectation. Edited April 14, 2023 by mozam76 Shite spelling 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Looking like another lovely day for the football this Saturday, enjoyed the day through at Motherwell, till the game started, would be nice if we got a win to top of a nice day out this time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A manager who says things are their own fault would be fucking marvellous in Perth!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Marly Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 I'm taking a day off from the football today. Going to watch the horse racing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mizfit Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 If he’s true to his word of giving fringe players a go then go with this. Bair can be replaced by Rudden, Spoony by Murphy if needed but we simply can’t play 3 at the back today. If we do, then just leave him in Livingston. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radford Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 At some point we just need to accept it isn't going to happen with Bair. I know they are virtually all off the bench but he's now made 36 appearances for Saints and has he ever actually shown a single thing? Zak Rudden at least is a footballer. Not a very good one, most likely, but a footballer at least. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame, I really wanted it to work with him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we are football fans, and we never learn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 It says everything about Bairs, and for me Ruddens, performances that the £100k bid for Jordan White is starting to look like it wouldve been great business. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shibbydoo Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 If I was a betting man, which I am, I'd put money on Livi winning this by at least 2 goals, which I have. Callum starts with a 3/5 at the back and I'm done. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PSJ.84 Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 At the start of the week I was convinced that there’s no way that he can/will go with the back five, but as the weeks progressed and he’s kept talking, I’m not so sure anymore. Would be extremely arrogant and totally moronic. So he will. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiviLion Posted April 15, 2023 Share Posted April 15, 2023 Looks like a good attacking lineup, happy with that. Looks like a more positive St Johnstone lineup too: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d have assumed a 442 but you’ll know better than me 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
