That’s where playing youngsters would help both in providing energy plus the crowd enjoys seeing them get their chance. I would play Ross instead of McGinn and Anderson instead of May. I also don’t see the need to play two sitting midfielders at home to St Mirren so if Ferguson is not fit I would also start Campbell
I don’t see the crowds going down much just yet as the weather is still decent enough so I would imagine 12,000 or so on Saturday. However if we continue to trend on less than a goal a game in the league and so continue to stumble around mid table then by the time we get into December I would not be surprised to see crows lower than 10,000.
Like I said on another thread pal.
Timothy were actually pretty sh1te yesterday but we were nowhere near good enough or capable of taking advantage of them.
It's worrying times indeed as Tims are clearly struggling and are there for the taking and we failed miserably.
10 points of the pace after only 7 games in is concerning, Fk me we are on the radar of Dundee at this rate..... And I would think Saint Midden will be coming up the road next week quite confident of taking something from us and quite rightly so
We are a fkn dire fitba team.

Our manager’s insistence of playing the 2 sitting midfielders is largely to blame for the football we play. Yesterday at Celtic Park we were crying out for more energy and drive from an attacking midfielder...we didn’t have anyone to do this...more bad management. Stevie May was deployed behind Wilson for big patches of the match but he should really be played as a goal scorer not a work horse. Our team is definitely unbalanced as we are not suitable technically when we are attacking. If GMS is closed down quickly our attacking is very limited.
St.Mirren at home should be an experimental full on attacking team. Absolutely no need for any sitting midfielders never mind two of them. We desperately need to show we can score goals and be a genuine threat to opponents. Let’s have positive tactics against them instead of stifling tactics that are killing our football.
Maybe a "stand free" picnic basket with each ticket sold would encourage bums on seats. Bronze would have a couple cocktail sausages , silver maybe a slice of quiche and your golds and platinum scotch eggs and vol au vents respectively......munching on some of those scrumptious goodies would make the whole experience so much better while struggling to beat bottom 6 clubs .
Deal me in for platinum
