No what it is says is Goodwin is fixated with 343. He has his favourites like Sevelj, playing midfield when he was stinking. Drops him and he comes on against Celtic and does well. He plays in midfield next week and puts in a great display. This not dropping players is on Goodwin. I want a manager who drops a player who needs dropped, not caring what player it is. Competition for places is what drives better performances from players and the team collectively.

Do we have to employ the three at the back all the phuckin time?

Can't disagree with any of this tbh

Possibly, we are comfortably mid table and that's despite goalie errors costing us between 5-10 pts so far

There isn't loads wrong, we aren't far off where I'd expect second season back, despite overachieving last season

Stability is key and getting injuries sorted as that's cost us, had we had Graham available all season we'd be top six comfortably also using the same back three we started the second half with

Well a manager as hellbent as Goodwin on 343 has been emptied. Can managers not see what works and stick to it? Its like they are trying to reinvent the wheel. Guess that's our chance at winning at Parkhead over now that Nancy is away.

You say injuries and I say that department at United need relieved from their duties. If they are that good they will get something else no problem.

I think a draw would have been harsh on the fun. We were terrible from start to finish. If someone can explain to me why Bert starts any games for us when we have Graham & SCH on the bench, I'm all ears.

I disagree l,i think we deserved a draw in the end as even although we were totally ineffective in front of goal in the 2nd half we did have them penned in for the most of the 2nd half and if not for a great save from Stephenson we could have got that point but lets be honest here,that was a fkn horrible game of football and both teams contributed to that. The amount of long balls,misplaced passes and general lack of technique from the 22 players on show was terrible.

They also missed some great chances first half.

Most of it came from slackness caused by Bert being a bomb scare from the off, caused issues all over, got Iovu booked, led to them been gifted set pieces, he caused uneasiness through the rest of the team

No Bert, no defeat in that game, imo

The through header from Panutche Camara would have taken anybody out the game, he should be proud. Instead he's having a complete meltdown after his heads gone incident at the end.

Lets be honest here, due to our own failings Dundee won every 2nd ball and should have been out of sight 1st half.

Agree that Bert's decision making was extremely poor, Iovu rightly took a yellow to save a Bert poor pass decision.

Graham on for Bert made a difference but Pressley had his lead and wanted to keep it. Having more of the 2nd half was down to a combination of this.

However overall, a lot of players are making poor decisions and/or mis placing passes, giving opponents easy possession.
Worse than Sunday league sometimes and puts the team under needless pressure.

The club have brought in players, some looked decent and some needed time.
Setting up to play to our strengths is on Jim, coaching and motivating players to give 100% for the 90+ mins, especially in key games, is on Jim and his backroom team.
This has been a rinse and repeat for too long, this needs to improve big time and quickly.
For continuity I hope it works out for Jim but I have my doubts.

Yeah, I agree he was brutal. Don't think we'd have won though, we were terrible going forward, created almost nothing.

I'm pretty confident we wouldn't have lost though

The best we could have got in The Derby is a 0-0 draw but in all fairness we never deserved it and the result was about right.Our form at home this season would have cost some previous managers their jobs.Its worth remembering this was the first Funster victory on the road this season.

A game that stick's out a mile this season is Sheep 4 Fun 0,this game took place in October and up till then The Sheep had failed to score a single goal in the league.That shows just how FN bad we were last week,Goodwin is getting off very lightly because that result against that Dundee side is unacceptable.

If Bert doesn't f*ck up and Stephenson scores then we possibly could have won,but you're right though we deserved the f*ck all that we ended up with. We should never ever be getting outplayed at home by that pile of shyte across the road.

[weegiearab]

The galling thing about our club is that our support has been fantastic for the past few seasons but everytime our players get a chance to put on a performance for the fans...they cr4p in our hands and ask us to clap. I can't remember the last game that we played with the right intensity for 90 minutes and every player played to their capability.

Does Bert fcuk up tho ADS ? We were playing a very dangerous high line, and once Pan's skyter went in behind against him, there was only one outcome. He couldn't even get sent aff coz he was too slow.

In saying that... that goal apert... I'd never play him again. For ump t e e n reasons.

Hate saying this.... JG (who I don't want sacked) things HAVE to change pretty quickly or we may be in different battle than where we thought we might be.

First time in years I'm contemplating not renewing my season ticket. (and that is not a Goodthing)...(pun intended)

One thing I would like to highlight is how Goodwin and managers play players who aren't match fit and wonder why we don't win? Camara is a good player, playing him when not fit is on Goodwin. Also this three at the back, has Goodwin been renewing his coaching badges at Largs and this is the new in thing?

After watching St Johnstone v United in pre-season I said Esselink was a good a player as Siggi Jonsson or Ed Machin. I would like to offer an apology to both of them as Esselink couldnae lace their boots. However, Goodwin saying Esselink is the experienced one to help out Iovu & KK was not helping the guy. I said we needed a Scottish centre-half with experience and I named the injury prone Mikey Devlin as an option.

I gave up my season ticket a number of years ago. Kick off times was the main reason but this parking situation has made me more than ever think phuck that.
