United v Sevco

[japanarab]

Losing by one goal to the team that are hammering everyone and p1ssing the league on our first season after promotion is 'dire'?! 👍

If it was a one off against them then fine--we've been playing this p!sh against a'body and doesn't look like changing anytime soon.

I kind of get what jj is on about but you are right, we are not good to watch these days.

'These days'- we've not been good to watch for years. At least we're sh1t in a decent league now.

I thought Mark Connolly had a very good game against Rangers. He stood up well to their attacking force. I feared Rangers would score a barrowload, but Connolly, Reynolds and Edwards all performed soundly.
Connolly even got Benji out of jail, when Benji went walkabouts, and Connolly headed off the line.

A lot of Connollys good work was undone by his distribution. One of the worst games I've seen him have in terms of hoofing the ball away. Kept inviting them straight back onto us. But yeah, defending wise he was decent.

Definitely not Connolly's worst game; he's had a few questionable performances in the past, and sure, he hoofed the ball away a few times last Sunday, but show me any central defender who doesn't resort to hoofing the ball away? I felt overall, he had a good game v Rangers.

Infact, we stopped being great to watch from the evening of Feb 1st 2015.

I didn't say it was his worst game, I said it was one of his worst for hoofing the ball away. Which imo it was.

Yeah, that was a huge turning point.

But I'm encouraged by Sunday's performance. We created a few decent chances. Much more than recently.

Fuchs seems to be settling and I just get the feeling he will get better the more he plays. McNulty likewise.

If Shanks can get a goal soon and gets on a wee scoring run, we could stay in the too six perhaps?

I would like to see Chalmers back. But I haven't heard any 'imminent return' news regarding him.

And we've got Kerr Smith up our sleeve.

Staying up is our number one priority. It's gonna be tough no doubt, but if we can work away as a team and stay out of the relegation battle I will be delighted.

Tell you what, I had to admire the work rate of most of those opposition players on Sunday. They do work hard, and they have some quality to boot. Got to grudgingly hand it to Gerrard, he's built a decent side. The Ravi Shanker!

Very true. It’s been pretty relentless and downhill since then

The climbing back up if we are honest began with the arrival of the ogrens. It takes a lot of money to pay off the dead wood and start making improvements

Sevco match highlight was how good our defending was - all 3 CBs know how to defend and head a ball.

What we lack is someone to knit together the passing. Take it from the defence and keep possession
