    Have we not only started the game v Aberdeen with 3 at the back?

    Even still we have lost more games with 4 at the back.

    Just also to point out that no matter what formation/system you use doesn't guarantee a win or a loss

    Yes it is but there have been plenty factors such as injuries and covid, we simply have not been able to play a settled side in months, it's nowhere near our worst team for example

    The current league is the strongest in years and much stronger than last year overall, most teams are better than they were last season even those down the bottom apart from St Johnstone and hearts/dundee are better sides than those that went down

    Our support really need to stick with it and we will reap the rewards in the future, talk of changing manager is very premature, ideally we win the next two and those noises fade away for the long term

    We were loving it earlier in season but remember how bad last season was not even being at games, a run like this isn't so bad after that, I enjoyed Tues night more than nearly all of last season.... OK not the first half but the nice play second half good chances just not clinical, being there is just much much better and having fans in, its clear there is a good side in there , changing manager this season is absolutely not the right thing for the club, only if we looked like getting in real relegation danger

    Which I don't see happening, especially with a positive support behind us, which our away support will be tomorrow, hopefully the team start better after the second half showing in these upcoming games, if so we will do fine

    I really don't like three at the back, all our best performances this season was with a back four

    So its ok to go on a 6 game beaten run just because we are able to pay through the nose to watch it!

    Either do i, but i think we look our best attacking wise when Freeman and McCann are getting forward and heavily involved and 3 at the back is a formation that takes advantage of that, it also means we dont end up with central players out wide just to fill a position like Glass, Pawlett etc if we are to change from the 433.

    We wont tho, Courts will prob stick with the current formation for a while yet since according to his latest interviews he can see us on the verge of going on another run.... honestly not sure what hes watching to think that

    Shedka good on you for keeping the optimism but in the real world how can you defend the facts?
    Won 1 of last 11
    On current form for the last 10 league games we're bottom of the league with a minus 12 goal difference
    Only once have we scored more than 1 goal in home league games this season
    Before Watt came our top scorers in the league had 3 and none were forwards,

    As for the so called 2nd half showings, this season under Tam, we have been trailing at half time in 8 league games and lost the lot, not one point gained.

    He loses tomorrow he needs to go FACT
