I?m not going to be calling for his head but JG got that totally wrong again today. First half just didn?t work. No width. No attack and a severe lack of energy. We were there for the taken.
Decca was all over the place today. Mannie did well and had to cover for him. Sande brought absolutely nothing. Bubunski tried to get things going but had no width to work with.
Next week a must win to ensure at least 5th spot against a team that has a bit of momentum.
We are at home Jim. Straight of the front foot and attacking football please.
Hope springs eternal....But dinna hid your breath.
What's our success built on though? We've had a good defence largely cause the team is set up defensively, rather than than having outstanding defenders, when we try play expansive football like against Celtic and Dundee we get exposed. I just think we are an incredibly functional team that has maxed out on our talent, our success has come pretty much playing one way, now we are coming up against the best sides our limitations are being exposed at a time when the squad is stretched. Even that good 20 mins against Celtic there was a compete lack of quality in the final third. Once the good defensive structure disappears, we don't have many other ways to win matches. Huge rebuild again in the summer to develop the team into a more effective attacking threat, and please god some pace up the top end of the pitch.
Think the defence have been below par since Holt left. Seemed to be the only boy who defending mattered to. The rest going through the motions.
I wouldn't be pushing the boat wages wise out for anybody in the squad. What we have is one style of play. Goodwin thought he could keep it tight then bring on the wingers. Game was gone by then. I hope we start with at least one winger from now on until the end of the season. Playing Sevelj at centre-half is removing a strength from midfield. If Manny and Graham are out Cleall Harding has to play. None of this square pegs in round holes.
We've not lost against St Mirren this season which is surprising. I wonder what the odds are for an away win for them next week?
We had three clean sheet victories in a row after he'd left so I don't think that's true tbhQuote:

Graham injury came at a bad time, Luca having to go came at a bad time
Cheap first goal very early so players didn't get settled into the game which was required after last week
Wrong system today, should have gone a 4 with Sevelj in middle, Babunski further forward
Should have changed system after 20-25 mins
Changes too late, they have better options and more options
Fight to stay in top 5, if 4th is still available on the last day I'd take that now
Yup snap your hand off for 5th with a chance of 4th on the last day, after that today 3rd is gone.Quote:
