    To keep the thread drift going, i was quite embarrassed to watch a grown man going face to face with a ****ager in the Dode yesterday. I looked over at the steward nearby who did very little about the situation, especially when dad got involved!

    But back on track, and i want to pick up on and agree with this perception of us trying to walk the ball into the net. I really could not believe the antics surrounding the free kicks around the box, especially everyone running away, and then there is what seemed to be the deliberate move to create an overhead kick! Get that pish away tae feck and lets get back to the basic football that was winning games!

    TC made comment about where we could have been after yesterdays result, but i can look back to the St Johnstone game where fancy passing arguably lost us that game, wrong decisions at the end of the County game lost us 2 points, and playing fancy against a team who worked their *******s off for the win.

    It needs to be sorted as soon as possible, and anything to stop a proper doing next week, followed by 2 hard home games, will be required to prevent an anti-TC meltdown which i think will be deserved if it comes!

    I know its a big what if, but we could have been sitting in 3rd but for the mistakes that have been made since October.

    And it wouldn’t have taken ‘miracle’ results to do it either. We should have beaten St Johnstone, held on at Coonty and then even just drawn yesterday. We would then be one point clear. BUT we’re not and for failing to do the above nor do we deserve to be.

    Nothing would surprise me in this league, although watching the huns today take the tertz apart gives me the fear for next week. TC needs to drill into the lads to get them fired up from the off, coz of the sit off them like they did against the fiddlers reckon we’ll get a proper doing. And with confidence looking like it’s in short supply we can do without a 5+ thrashing. But this is Scottish fitba

    Positives. Just the one, Declan Glass had a very good game. OK, two McMann is back.

    Where do we go from here. We badly need January reinforcements. A bit concerning that the early bounce Tam got from some players has gone.

    I think injuries has ruined our early momentum. Levitt being unavailable in particular has turned out to be key. But it's clear as day we need more options up top regardless.

    What is panning out is nothing that wasn't obvious at the start of the season - we don't create and score goals. Apart from the Hibs game at Easter Road (we even had one of these performances last season at Pittodrie) even when we were picking up points 5 of them were 1-0 which is a testimony to our defence not our attackers. You can argue we were unlucky with McNulty being injured but he was part of the misfiring squad of last season. In fact we are weaker this season up front McNulty included. We cant go through a season relying on defence not to concede. This is where we are right now.

    The TC comments were quite funny - obviously some discussion of how many points we have that he had rehearsed assuming we won. But we didn’t win and we still got to hear stats anyway !!

    It is a concerning slide in form at the moment. This will cost us if we miss out of Europe or top six.

    The most glaring problem is up front. Shame that Biamou has been injured virtually since arrival.

    Was Biamou signed until January or the end of the season?
