GMBairn Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Confirmation if it was needed that there is barely a man in our squad good enough to lead us to a convincing league win next season and actually carry us into the premier league with any hope of staying up. I wonder just how many of this lot will survive the summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the January window was anything to go by I think we will hardly recognise the team come the start of next season.I would definitely keep McGhee. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that Pea Heart Harris has slithered his way back into the squad, and today, onto the park, sums up the utter poverty of our squad. If we are remotely serious about making any sort of challenge this season, the number of players to be retained will be comfortably counted on the finger of one hand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would definitely keep McGhee. Yeah, would keep him and Robson from that back 5 but would replace the rest along with the goalie. The rest will do a job until the end of the season but that's it really. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Mirren and Dundee Utd both had similar scorelines away to Aberdeen this season and they're the champions elect and play-off candidates. Today shouldn't have any bearing on the rest of our season or who we recruit next season. Like it or not, Rangers a level or two above what we need to be next season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spud131 Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Today was exactly what it was, 2nd in the Premier league playing a struggling championship team. That's not to say I'm happy with the result or performance but we need to be realistic. I think it showed what we've known all season, that our keeper and defence aren't good enough. I'll be surprised if there's many of our back line here come August 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BudBairn Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 I thought we played ok, defence let us down badly. 1st goal was ridiculous, why did no one close him down. Midfield weren’t really up to much either, I think Kidd would of helped Taiwo and Sibbald in there. Seasons pretty much over now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShaggerG Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Agreed. I would keep McGhee, Robson, TT, Sibbs, Longridge & Nelson if we can. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Seasons pretty much over now. Dumbarton have 2 games in hand and you have to play each other yet as well. Given the gap is 9 points I think it's pretty arrogant to assume the season is over for you just yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bridge of allan bairn Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 the only good thing that comes out of drawing the old firm away from home is that the war chest will be supplemented for Hartley this summer. 34000 at the game and tv rights must mean a really decent chunk of cash as well as quarter final money 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We could put in a cheeky £1.000 Offer in for Morelos and risk being out bid bye a Junior team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marshmallo Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Next year I'd be looking at New keeper New RB Muirhead/Grant New CB McGhee Robson Taiwo Sibbald New CM Longridge Jakubiak Keep Nelson as a sub. Empty everyone else. We can do better than Tumilty. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav-ffc Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 McGhee is a class above The Championship, extend his deal immediately and captain. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Empty everyone else. We can do better than Tumilty. I am not entirely sure we should be trying to work out next season’s squad based on a performance against Rangers. We won’t be up against that level next season and some players took to the occasion and lineup better than others today.It was interesting to see how far away from the top of the Premiership we are, and it’s a long way. For example, Tumilty does not defend well but he’s good going forward at Championship level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep that Dumbarton team who can't score and haven't won a league game since the first week in November. More chance of Queens winning the league than Dumbarton finishing above 9th 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That team you mention has pretty much dragged us clear of relegation this season. Thomson has cost us vital points as part of that, although overall he was good today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At no stage did I say it was based on the Rangers game. If it was then Robson would be working in Greggs in Sunderland. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
