After stinking out Livingston, Motherwell and Thistle, you are right, we should have rioted, boycotted the lot that we didn’t sign him 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Jaffo Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 The damning pattern of Bullen’s tenure is that I don’t think there has been one single game at this level where we have dominated the midfield and sometimes you need someone to stand up and calm things down and play from there. Morton had two hugely experienced players in Power and Gillespie doing that and it showed. We’d rather try and dig in and defend 1-0 for half an hour away from home. In Bullen’s tenure we have been far too naive at times and end up playing the game in the way our opponents want us to. Think this stems from us having very little gameplay ourself which was a common occurrence with McCall as well. We’ve got Inverness next week which is already shaping up to be a must win but if we’re going to be gifting three goals to teams that we should be at least on a par with then I’m not that hopeful for this season. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only a couple of folk bizarrely didn't rate him. He's a pler. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought we were stodgy as f**k until we went behind… but in the context of this tight league, it was a bit of a spanking after that. Shows again what we know already: this team needs to play with real intensity to get results. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMFC89 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 First half was pretty even. Thought Ayr missed Murdoch badly after he went off. Goal came against the run of play imo. After we scored there was only ever going to be one winner. Thought Crawford and Boyd were both superb for us, as were the rest of the team. Special mention to the boy who came on at RB for Ayr and McGeady. Both absolutely rancid. McGeady is finished and the other boy looked like a fish out of water. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGeady hasn’t played in about eight months, so I wouldn’t quite be writing him off based on a twenty minute cameo. Good to hear the RB we were all pinning our hope on being our first decent full back in years was good though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No he had a bit of breathing room for me as he was largely new to management but it’s been 18 months now and also his comments over the summer about being experienced enough have gotten rid of that. He hasn’t learned anything in this time and we’ve lost huge games due to lack of game management or not sensing when a change needs to be made. He was spot on when he said we needed experience but today showed we needed them in defence and in midfield. I’m not slagging the signing of Murphy as I’m sure he’ll win us points this season but he’s not in a position where he’ll help us manage a game in the way Power did for Morton. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has stayed loyal to the players who did well in the league cup, players that were, at best average last season. I let out a sigh when I saw the line up today, too light in midfield, 2 up front that don’t do enough when we don’t have the ball against a team that play with high intensity. The fact he keeps doing this shite is beyond acceptable now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
