    Nah just being balanced as usual and telling the truth, that is what's happened

    There is no big crisis, we will come out of this run and improve, I've no doubts, the covid outbreak has delayed that

    A run of games with your strongest line up and you get results and momentum, you do better than a stuttering period with injuries suspensions and mixed with loss of form

    One positive today is Glass scoring what sounds like a cracker, he impressed me in a recent home game, maybe Livi... Can see him becoming a regular higher up the park if he maintains that
    So you didnt even watch that game! WOW!

    You are right but so is shedka. There are mitigating circumstances and there is no point ignoring that. However, the recent games have been soul destroying to watch for us all. Absolute pish.

    Tbf there was four games with our strongest eleven that started this run. We've then had six without, so it's not all to be blamed on not having our strongest eleven on the park. It hasn't helped recover that loss of form, no, but the early season good run had gone before injuries and covid took hold.

    I'm obviously disappointed, as with any defeat. But there was indeed a lot of mitigating circumstances.

    Wih the upcoming break, we can hopefully clear up our injury list and bring in a couple of players in Jan.

    Buy when we come back in Jan, we need to be fighting for every decision and point to be had.

    Break has come at the right time but that was really poor today.

    We miss Fuchs and Levitt in midfield. There is also a worrying lack of urgency to try and get a result or win games.

    Run we have been on since about hearts has been bad. Aberdeen we were lucky the fan had them riled and player sent off etc though we did well at end to win it as with Mulgrew v Motherwell.

    Hopefully by time we play again will have proper striker and Levitt Fuch Edwards Mulgrew and Benji all on the park

    We have been very unlucky with our squad availability and im willing to cut a bit of slack. The club were massively short sighted and nieve in our striker recruitment though. For having one of the best defences in my lifetime we have by far the worst bunch of strikers/fowards ive seen.

    We were very poor today. Prepared to cut TC a bit of slack however giving the injury and COVID issues. That’s said I think we shld have played glass from the start. Also Ican see why he played clark today giving the shortage of senior players, but as soon as we have someone else to play up top he needs to be benched. He gives nothing to the team and shld only be used as an impact player.

    Agree with this. I’m interested to see what we can do after the break with an actual striker on the park

    Certainly one of the worst if not the worst collective bunch iv seen as well. Even our first choice front 3 would be one of the worst.
