Goodwin GTF!

[Yeats 62]

Its funny how you mention Aberdeen. Think they have bought the same club operations manual and are making a right dunt o it!

It's not funny at all Chick, but , I know what you mean.

Many players have commented on sweating blood etc for their manager. Not so sure ours even sweat, never mind bleed for ours.

With Goodwins clear inability to be able to rouse players (or even himself by the look of it) especially for big games I suggest getting rid of him today. Allow him to go home and celebrate maslenitsa without the chain of responsibility round his neck.

At least we will reach the play offs and most other managers will be able to get at least half the team up for a big game like a play off. With Godwhen there the big games are already lost.

he obviously can't motivate the players or give them confidence, how many times has he stood there and said the 1st half performance wasn't acceptable? That's down to him, his motivational skills, or lack of them and in last night's case ridiculous team selection. Every must win game has seen us play poorly and get beaten. If the 1st half yesterday was soo bad why did he do nothing to change it, his selection and tactics were quite clearly not working and at 1-0 down there was only one team going to score the 2nd goal and it certainly wasn't us. All the fans could see it, why could he not is he blind, stupid or was he too stubborn to admit he was wrong and change it? Why at half time only one change, why do we persist with Grieve and Tillson is that because he signed them and again is he too stubborn to admit he was wrong because let's be clear neither merit being anywhere near our squad. He persists in the same failures every week and the odd occasion he drops any of them they are always first subs on. We will lose our young players, Mochrie, Meekison, Cudjoe and Fotheringham because he won't play them, imagine watching Watt not showing an ounce of effort every week, same with Middleton along with his clear lack of a set of balls or appetite for the fight, then you have Grieve and Tillson with no discernable sign of the ability required. Imagine sitting on the bench and thinking he thinks they're better than me. Last season when he eventually played Fotheringham look what happened the laddie was one of our best players, this season looks at Thomson same thing applies. Yes the youngsters will be inconsistent but they will run and fight for the shirt and for the club and let's be honest they could not be any more inconsistent or as bad as the 4 senior players mentioned above.

We got absolutely bullied all night, every player was a half yard off the pace, looked leggy as ****. **** knows what's going on there

Some hangover ramblings....

We can't keep going on like this.
Week to week it's Hit to Miss.
Ninety minutes you're up & ninety minutes you're down.
We need to take the last 7 games as an entity.
We're just not there & there's a lot not right.
Our vaunted 'strongest squad' claim is maybe much exagerated.
Our endeavour is rubbish, there was one team out there last night with a will to win & it wasn't us.
The manager ain't going nowhere and we still top the league, God knows how.
Teams were scared of us first half of the season, now they know we're easy meat.
There was talk of us being more up for it after the Morton battle but no evidence of that last night.

I'm fearing Ross County Home & Away.

That set up tonight gave Dunfermline all the encouragement they needed,that's totally on him.

I agree with this. BUT, changing manager now would be ridiculous.

That's what JG was suggesting but I just don't think so. The selection and setup of the team was all wrong.

Great post and the aforementioned youngsters would walk into any other team as I have said before. They don’t huff and puff like Watt etc. they are all fairly good and better on the ball than what we are playing. Add to that Glass if you can get him playing, although he reminds me a bit of Charlie Telfer who bombed, but still came back in part to haunt us a couple of weeks ago. In my opinion there is only one man who can make these youngsters more match ready and that is Stevie Campbell, get him back, better late than never; he will also set the tone for the future. Irrespective of outcome this season we need a reset instead of buying/loaning fringe players and odd has been! They are clearly certainly up front not cutting it.

[ARAbCHNID]

Make that Morton Home & Away.

100% This Tilson and Grieve are terrible footballers
