    Thats easy, we had a bad start to the league because we had players like Adam Barton playing for us!

    Totally dominated game. Bt jeezo it was brutal to watch at times.

    Keeper at fault for 1st goal. Poor passing again throughout the team. One of the main culprits being Stanton who did have a couple of decent runs bt his final distribution is diabolical at times.

    Agree Bouhenna butcher Robson and Reynolds all had a decent game. Thought seaman looked ok when he came on too.

    That said how the pluck this team can not pass the ball about competently is beyond me, and why RN never mentions this in post match interviews is even more bewildering!

    Good 3 pts 👍. Bt as I have mentioned a few times b4 possession is probably one of the most overrated stats especially if u cannot capitalise on it, and if we play like that against Dunfermline I can’t see us winning.

    Its ok TTT, i heard howls of derision anytime Stanton missed a pass, especially early doors after Clark did the same with no reaction. Heard more from different areas when his effort was appreciated though, funnily enough from the GF upper!

    His passing is a nightmare, he actually does a lot of decent stuff and has decent ability but he needs to stop passing when it's not on or stop rushing it when a pass is on. He does my fkn nut in.

    I dont think there was a pass today that wasnt on for a number of players. I noticed today that little passes out the challenge by Stanton always made their man, its just when he had time to make the killer pass on the run, when he opened his body up to make the pass, it all went to pot!

    Some credit also has to go to some Alloa defenders who stopped some great passes!

    From rewatching the goals on the zone both sides were badly at fault for conceding the first goals

    Not sure if we should persist with benji. That could have been a really costly error - when he knocked it out he obviously wanted to rectify his error but running after it to edge of box was worse than flapping at cross in first place.

    Don’t know how good Laidlaw is and it’s not good for stability to chop and change - not an easy decision

    Think the delivery from Robson deserves more credit than that!

    I torn on Benji as he has proved to be a fine shot stopper, but had a serious dose of the clangers around the double save and the following flap n run! Defence looked really nervous for a while after that as well which nearly caused a stupid pass back!

    Not heard anything good about Laidlaw, but wonder if Deniz can be re-called?

    Just had a look at the east futba match thread and it says expected, full of negative, entitled, self loathing muppets, especially during the game, some effects want Neilson out LOL

    Criticism is all they do.
