    Does anybody else think that we need to pull the trigger sooner rather than later?
    He persists with this defence week on week. OK Graham is back but the others have not had a clean sheet for months (if at all). Sam CH in right away and bin Kerestes and Iovu. Strain and Ferry the other 2 in a 4. Has to be better than this and its almost the same defence we used at times last season and got clean sheets.

    We will score goals but we need to be shutting teams out.

    If Goodwin persists with underperforming defenders over and over when they cant stop leaking goals then I want him out. It's getting to me that he wont play a young Scottish Dundee United fan who has already been tested at this level and played very well.

    However we badly need a keeper as Richard's is nowhere near good enough and for now I'd rather go with Kuch, must sort the goalie situation by January
    Goodwin signed Richards. If he isn't good enough why sign him? Iovu seems to be the other Goodwins scouted Baresi. If he is so good why have previous coaches let him move? Think the Goodwins need to go to Specsavers and also remember we play in Scotland.

    This is definitely a case of decent players but crap Manager.

    I have zero faith in him.

    Strain was f*cking shyte! Ferry not much better. I'm as angry and fed up as everyone else but one thing that could have changed today's game was Sapsford scoring an absolute f*cking sitter! Absolutely has to score that, just chip the f*cking keeper like the other night!

    They have been shyte a lot more times than they haven't so I'm not sure I'd describe them as decent tbh. The manager is the one that has to turn them round though and I dont see him doing that, when you gotta go you gotta go!

    I think JG deserves the chance to turn it around

    He has got us into Europe and great trips to lux and Vienna

    Maybe the number of changes made in summer was too many and the team just are not clicking at all

    Some of the players like Camara, Fatah and Sapsford that were signed are good though

    I definitely want to give all the management more time

    I tend to agree, more time; however what is not clicking among a group of players that performed so well in the Rapid Vienna games? Who to all intents and purposes are the same group; notwithstanding injury.

    Is the Scottish league too tough for them? I wouldn't have thought so. I think it is tactical as most have pointed out. I noticed on Wed Moller was holding back getting up the pitch on some occasions. There is no substitute for positive play in the words of the great Luggy!

    We have a potential good front four, if only and i go on about it, if the wingers were allowed to play on heir natural footed side and i think the play would be much faster and hopefully better service. Either a 4-5-1 for me or 4-4-1-1 when needed. And if it aint working for whatever reason change it and change again if needed.

    FFS learn to pass to your team mates and goalies catch the ball!
