    Was 4_3_3 to start then went 4_2_3_1 second half , just home , utter embarrassment was 3 could easily have been 6 , see guys moaning about Fyvie , he actually was one o a very few that won a tackle today , Flood is finished , King flatters to deceive and achieves nothing , forgot McMullen was on after his booking .

    Very poor all round , must be serious doubts about manager I am afraid regards organisation and tactics , last two games have been worst witnessed from a United team in a long time , I know its early doors but the warning signs are there

    Probably similar signs that others noted last season just before christmas. I really hope it doesnt become as much of an epic fail as last season.

    Today was a complete joke, and sums up what will be our problems against any decent side that presses us high up the pitch. He want s our defence to build up passes from the back, but they are not good on the ball or able to move it fast enough, so we end up passing all the way along the defence, until we eventually lose possession deep in our own half, or lump it straight up the park where the opposition mop up everything because we have one guy up front who has no pace or height (and add to that playing a right footed centre half Quinn who cant pass with his left foot on the left side of the defence). Why exactly did he buy macdonald? Surely you are only going to get the best out macdonald when he has someone to play off, and even if we do go to a 4-4-2 he wont have a hitman to feed off. Flood is another bad decision, committed but kind of pointless if you are chasing your own misplaced passes. The criteria for most our signings this season seem to have been they are available and known because they are domestic players.
    This post sums it up for me. I would also say I have been completely underwhelmed by Billy King.

    The second half was possibly the worst I have seen us play for a while. The midfield was awful Flood in particular. I don't think Ray is capable of observing a game and able to reorganise a team. He stood silently with his arms folded as we punted the ball upfield.

    Is that not what they're told to at Largs.
    And when questioned respond with one of the standard answers.
