St Johnstone v Aberdeen

[pieandbovrilman]

Ach…..Ach!
I’m a bit scunnered this season, we seem to have a good enough squad on paper but it’s just nae happening. Is it Baz? He definitely could do better with the players he has but it’s back to the age old question of who do you replace him with?
It would probably cost us a fortune to get rid and another fortune to get in anyone who might have a slight chance of being any better than anyone else in the league.

This season is well on its way to being mediocre at best. Yes we had Europe and the cup final so I dare say if we can get ourselves a wee run together and be in contention for the fourth or fifth, whatever gives you a chance for Europe, that will be a pass mark for Baz this season from the board.

Achhhhh!

I really can’t see why anyone would think we have a good squad.Is it because we have paid money for some of these players?

It’s starting to remind me of the dark days of Aitken and Miller when we were spending decent money on players that were a bunch of duds.

The only good player we have is Miovski.Duk is good on his day and Barron has the potential to be a good player but the rest are average at best.Even that’s a compliment to some of them.

Absolutely this ^^^^

We have some good individuals (on their days - which are far too infrequent).

What we don't have is a good squad. This squad is completely unbalanced and just cannot play together. It doesn't work. It's clear as day.

That's mainly on the manager, but the recruitment side needs a right good kick up the arse as well cause the recruitment has for the most part this year been abysmal.

Pieandbovrilman made a good point re "who do we replace him with?" cause there's no outstanding candidates and lets be honest, who trusts Dave (and that fuuckin gype Milne remember) to get it right.

One thing it won't cost is a fortune though. One of the few sensible things Dave has done re managerial appointments was to give this clueless loser only a 2 year contract. I thought at the time it showed the level of faith he had in him - a level of faith which has been sadly proved correct.

So it won't cost that much to get rid. What will cost money is keeping him. We've already pretty much blown the £5m from 3rd place for next year, so how much more money is that clown gonna be allowed to cost us before sanity prevails...

I think that rather than gaining ground on Hearts, we will actually drop further behind them in the next two to three weeks as we have Hearts, Dundee, Celtic and Rangers in the next four league games. With the way we are currently playing, I don’t see us picking up more than 2 to 4 points in those games.

3 points max - even that's a stretch tbh.

Should surely be the end for Robson - only positive I can see...

I agree. That would give us 4 points from an available 15 points from five games! Shocking thought going into the second half of the season - but, “we’ll be alright you know”.

Hearts are going to pump us.
