We would be in a great position in this league if we-
a) played for 90 minutes instead if 45 minutes
b) stopped gifting teams goals

How many points have we thrown away already this season?

[Arabdownsouth]

Fast start my arse,f*cking woeful again. Second to everything and dont get me started on that goal

[Stoke_Arab]

What was I just saying pre match about bravery and aggression from the back 3?
Shocking. And it's making other players nervous. Helps if your keeper doesn't throw one in as well.
Iovu looking like he's never seen a football.
The only bright spot has been Camara but he can't carry the whole team on his back.

We'll kick on after Christmas. The United nations have been reading and taking too much of the praise offered earlier in the season. Need the proverbial boot up the ****

[Arabdownsouth]

We won't win many games if we keep on flogging goals. Some of the goals we've conceded this season have been downright ridiculous. All to play for still but I'm not hopeful, we are always likely to concede again. Time to get big Sam in that defence to start putting his head on the ball and taking decision making away from the keeper. I dont get how Sam hasn't had his chance with the amount of goals we are conceding and all the bombscare moments.

We usually go downhill after Christmas

Craigiesta Sibbaldi 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡

Honestly what a shambles for 60 minutes, he goes 433 with two wingers and bang we turn a shocker of a performance into 3 points.

So many players way off it. But it's a good side that finds a way to win when the chips are down.

[weegiearab]

I'll happily take the 3 points but kinda think we got outta jail considering that first half performance. All round sloppy passing and poor judgement, we just look off it all over the park at times...but 3 pts is 3pts.!

First game at Tanny for a while. Last minute ticket in the JK.

Camara brilliant. Only pass marks.

We absolutely stole that game though. Was very poor fayre for most of the game.

Incidentally. Give GF and ET stands were sold out, why so many empty seats?

Hi ads...hopefully a different team 🧡🖤

Cant help but think there was a robbery at Tannadice today! Obviously take todays 3 points, but ive been at all the recent home games, and apart from Aberdeen game, i cannot ignore how bad our keeper and defence can be!

Iovu seems to be just too slow, Bert is too much of a bomb scare and Keresztes just about gets pass marks but i need to see him with better defenders beside him! Kuch, i think we are getting what we expected!

Throughout the team, just seems like they are encouraged to show some flair, but forgotten what the basics of football are. 11v11 today, we were second to every ball and couldnt even pass within 10 yards, never mind find a team mate!

Thankfully, St Midden could not capitalize on our failings today and we did on theirs. If their goal is a howler from Kucherenko, their keeper had a bigger howler for the equalizer, but i thought he should have seen red for handling outside the box. Looked really tight though but the linesman had a slightly better view than i.

Never seen anything for the Penalty, but VAR and Beaton worked for us today, and Sibbalds goal was sheer class!

Not delighted so far this season, but get the defence sorted and we will be fine!

And one last thing, how tight is this league so far? If games stopped at half time, Fundee would have been 3rd!

Don't get why we persist with three centre-halves. I'd rather have wingers to provide the crosses than rely on wing-backs. Fatah gets to the byeline and we are fortunate to get the penalty. Trap then nearly has the ball in off the bar if the keeper doesn't touch it over.

Esselink gets a start because he is the one in charge of the backline. Not for me, giving him that responsibility has made his game poorer imo. If playing a back four, my preference, it'd be: Stephenson SCH KK Ferry. I'd be leaving Sevelj on the bench for a wee rest. Sibbald & Camara in the centre with Fatah right and either Sapsford/Trap left with Dolcek/Sapsford off Moller. The keeper situation though I have no idea what the remedy to that is.

He needs to stop trying to punch the ball imo, if thats gonna be the result then he's as well either catching it or sticking his f*cking nut on it. I'll take the 3 points gladly, weve played much better and been left disappointed. It needs building on with victory on Wednesday though.

It's rare you see a goalkeeper make a mistake like that, and that's two in as many months. Goalkeepers should have all the advantages in those situations, they can jump and use their hands! I'm not seeing what lovu brings to the side, and he has had a decent run of games now, slows us down moving the the ball out the back. Sam Harding is far from the finished product, but I think it's a Genuine question why he is not getting an opportunity, and we aren't developing him. He'd be better in our team or Airdries.

Nail on head with that summing up why we won today despite being pretty rotten - st mirren couldn't capitalise on our failings and we did on theirs.
