    we've tried all the centre halves, all combos, they've all been poor.

    That's what i was getting at,had we continued to play the way we were it was there for the taking but with our defence going in front is like showing a red flag to a bull.That Hibs bull tonight was lying in its own penalty area with 20 swords in it.

    Harding will get stick for their 2nd,having just seen it on Sky its the keepers ball before it gets anywhere near Harding.Its 3 yards from the goal line and their are no Hibs players blocking him.They are saying its a great delivery but its almost straight at the keeper who is rooted to the spot.

    The 3rd goal is a great header and the whole defence bar the keeper are at fault this time as they are lined up like statues and all of them allow the Hibs player a free header.To be honest the six players lined up for that free kick would be just as well heading up the tunnel for an early bath.Not one of them made any attempt to move for the ball.It was as if they were a loose wall for a direct free kick from the centre of the penalty box.

    The Hibs fans on the EBC match ratings gave Cadden MOTM even though he played less than 30 minutes!!!.He obviously put in the 2 crosses.Gray for Hibs gave his after match comments but nothing from Goodwin or anyone else from United.

    We knew going into the transfer window that we needed a CB and a striker. We got neither. If JG is going to insist on playing this formation then he needs to get the players to play it. Why we didn't must be either because JG thinks what we have is fine....in which case...he may have some sort of brain injury or, and I think this is the likeliest answer...Ogren only wants players that have been spotted on potential with a resale value because he is desperately trying to get back his money. JG is being asked to just try and keep us a premier league team and norhing more. If we are in the process of putting the owners finances ahead of the product on the park....then we have seen this movie before. We are being asked to accept mediocrity and under performance . I have never felt so far removed from this club as I am just now. There is no leadership on the park, the manager appears to have lost the dressing room , the fans are switching off and our owner hasn't got the first f4cking clue about Scottish football. I'm getting close to hoping that Spartans beat us so this sh1t show can finally come to an end.

    Can tell me what his instructions were to Dolcek when he brought him on? I want to know if it was positive instructions or negative...that will help with who to point the finger at!

    If we had a coach that had us playing decent football, winning matches and challenging for Top 6, or in the Top 6, I don't think ANYBODY is posting all this negative stuff about Ogren.
    It's a red herring, it's a bandwagon that's gathering pace across forums.
    When we were qualified for Europe and playing Rapid Vienna NO-ONE was posting anti Ogren ****e, not even that Derry Jungle guy. Not a soul.
    Now we can't win a football match it's suddenly Mark Ogrens fault?

    We have a lot of very decent players.
    It's the managers job to coach them into a cohesive unit, to develop a playing style, to MOTIVATE the players, to get the best out of the players. He's not coaching these players because if he was you would see a definite style, he's not doing any of the above.

    The coaching staff need emptied at the end of the season, and sorry Davie Bowman you are a f ucking legend but that means you too. A complete coaching staff clear out.
