    He was dreadful. Another woeful performance from him.

    I also don?t see the fuss about Polvara?another player I would show the door. His decision to boot the ball out the park when he had enough time to put it up the pitch was ridiculous and ended up giving them the opportunity which they got their goal.

    Thelin made a lot of mistakes today and his slow substitutions are haunting him now. Far better when he didn?t hang about and just made the changes straight at half time.

    Did the Dundee United keeper touch the ball today? What a truly woeful attacking performance from us.

    Thelin was outsmarted by Jim Goodwin today?let that sink in.

    No surprise to find possible traces of traditional pant-pishing here, and a return from self-imposed exile of another who only seems to surface as a grim reaper-esque ghoul when things aren’t going too well.

    Entitlement is a sad modern curse.

    Why don't you concentrate on the points put forward in the posts rather than the poster themself?

    Have a read of what I wrote and if possible put forward a differing opinion, that's how message boards usually work.

    If you've nothing contradictory to say about my posts then I'll assume you are in full agreement.

    JG is showing this season how a good a manager he is. Inherited a poorly performing group of players, overhauled it to remodel them on a vastly reduced budget to win The Championship. Then overhauled that to a squad to compete in Premiership. And he is doing just that.

    Did a good job at Alloa. Did a good job at St Mirren and people seem to forget he was doing a good job at Aberdeen until the World Cup break where he had them sitting third in the table.

    The seeds of what went wrong at Aberdeen were sown with 2 tough fixtures after the break, nearly holding Celtic to a draw then the players snatching defeat from victory to huns in injury time. Aberdeen were also holding their own at Hampden in semi against huns until the diddy Stewart got sent off. The disaster in last 2 games isn't all down to JG. For some reason they downed tools like United players did with Jack Ross, another manager let down by players. The quick turnaround in performances under your next sacked manager Barry Robson shown that.

    You need to accept it just didn't work out in the end with JG in a bad month which the players should take take their fair bit of the responsibility. These things happen. Once you realise that and thankful for the record transfer fee for JG recruited Miovski you can move on and stop being so ridiculously stuck in JG hate mode.

    Was a lot of grumbling about him last season down Tanmadice way too.

    I don't hate the guy. Didn't work out for him in the end with us, but he's never stuck the boot into us in anyway upon his departure.
    It wasn't just the post world cup games we grumbled about either. We had some horror showings under him well before then, especially away from home.

    No idea if our fans were chucking stuff at him yesterday, as wasn't at the game, but sort of behaviour you expects from the Govan minks and the victims.
