    Far too early.

    We are missing butcher and benji

    The play has got to improve

    Last season 5 at the back worked and we should go back to that

    A lot more fight needs to be on show

    We had problems under Mellon and Courts - today was a major setback though

    Mixu lost the dressing room after his rant at the Tattiedome.
    I was never sure that Jackies heart was in it towards the end and i have my doubts that Mixu ever had the dressing room.

    I'm not for getting rid of JR.

    However I do realise his league record is not good.
    Before he left Hibs they had lost 9 (was It) in a row
    then a draw the 3 losses with us.

    Hopefully we can gel (after Celtic).

    If JR thinks he is capable of turning McGrath, Levitt and Harkes into a midfield unit that can provide some defensive cover to a defence already under pressure with dodgy keepers we are in deep trouble.

    Can we afford to still be asking these same questions in a month though? If he can't get these players to do the basics then I'm sorry but he needs to f@ck off, simple as that.

    Harkes would need to be the deepest of those three, McGrath further forward, Levitt the middle of them, still don't see it being a combination that works that gives us defensive cover, Sibbald/Harkes/Levitt better option, McGrath has shown nothing, didn't rate him much at St Mirren tbh

    McGrath hasn't been great so far but has done better than Harkes so far this season. At Hearts last week both weren't great but at least McGrath didn't hide,at least McGrath came looking for the ball where as Harkes tended to stay near Watt and do absolutely fk all.

    Biggest let down for me are the 2 Aussies and were hanging our hat on both getting in their world cup squad to earn us a few bucks......dinghies.

    Our left hand side first half with McGrath and Watt was utterly pish, embarrassing in fact.
