Shocker, penalty to Rangers

Big mistake from McMann to have his arms flailing like he did. Pity as i have doubts Rangers could have scored from open play, and that is down to the effort put in!

Wish we had a better striker than Clark.

We did, and he also couldn't do anything in his last season. I know what you are saying, but it has to be more about supply/formation/tactics etc. No player can go from banging them in for fun , to next to nout, without good reason. Different league? maybe , yi never know.

Proud of the team today tho, sh*t place to go at the best of times. At least we didn't lie down and take it like the Celic' match.

I have to disagree. Nobody got near Shankland to support last year. We went many games without a ball coming near the box. Shankland could at least hold his own and hold the ball. Clark has a lack of pace, strength, height and to be honest he wastes his energy running after a team playing a ball across the back line but when we have the ball he doesnt run anywhere and when he gets it into his feet he trips up or plays a bad touch. He is no where near it just now. Even some big lump like Jordan White id bite your hand off for right now.

We are getting crosses in the box and balls into Clark but his movement, touch and strength makes it look like we arent because he is just no where near the required standard just now.

Plenty of positives to take from that, young guys passed and pressed well. Felt the goal was coming, as some of youngsters started to tire, penalty I think is just a bit unlucky tbh, balls almost behind Mcmann. They allowed us a little chance last 10, but we just don’t have fire power up front to punish them (or anyone at moment it seems). Kids did well.

Hmmm , point taken you don't like Clark To be fair though, the supply (as per mentioned) was minimal. There were occasional balls badly fed in to the box for Shanks, just pure rubbish ones. A wee bit like this season. There is the perfect ba' in, and a good ba' in. It is up to the individual player to make the most of both.

Not sure when Clark turned in to Derren Brown tho making balls that went in to the box look like they didn't, that is some achievement. Obviously in the wrong trade methinks.

Hahaha

Mate the thing is I think Clark does have something to offer but as an impact sub and that is mostly it. I may be being a bit harsh but im just finding it so frustrating watching him every week dish out these types of performances. I didnt get that feeling watching Shankland, i felt sorry for him as we created nothing for him.
