  1. Really missing Oakley, he's vital to how we play. Muirhead offers zero presence whatsoever and it's fairly easy for any half decent centre back to defend against him playing as a lone striker. Thought Boyd looked promising in the early cup games but he's been awful against teams not at that lower level. McGrattan is our best wide midfielder and should be starting every week. Power anonymous, Wilson utter garbage. Blues better this week than last at least and tbh a tough ask to have him in the Robbie Crawford role as he doesn't have the same energy levels and isn't as effective pressing. The biggest problem of all though is quite clearly Kirk Broadfoot. Dougie was quick to drop Efe last season after his horror show at Celtic park. Broadfoot has now had several horror shows and needs dropped immediately. As things stand, I'd be tempted to just give Doyle - if fit again - a contract til January at least. It certainly isn't going to be any worse.
  2. Cameron Blues is fucking shite... so obviously instead of taking him off we move him to RB and take Darah off... Seen loads of comments over the last few months that we are better when we go with one of Muirhead/Oakley instead of trying to fit both into the team and I couldn't agree more. Today proved once again that Oakley is the one (when we have the choice obviously). 0-3 flattered us.
  3. This is dire. Muirhead and Blues are rolling back the years...
  4. Well deserved victory against a team of hatchet men.
  5. Michael Doyle in training with us today it would appear. I liked him when he was here but given that was 5 years ago and he's played for 5 clubs since then, probably not who I would want to see replace Liam Grimshaw...
  6. Clan to be sold to TDL Media - owners of Premier Sports Ireland & Asia, W Sport and have obviously had previous involvement in the Elite League through Premier Sports UK before they were bought out by viaplay.
  7. I'm sure absolutely no one will be surprised that the team that played the majority of the second half was absolutely miles better than the team that started the game.
  8. Ali Crawford stays in Calvin Miller comes in I might just stay in the house...
  9. Season over for us. Likely a 7th place finish as well.
  10. Ali Crawford starts again. Congratulations on securing your playoff place, Ayr.
  11. I'm not saying Lyon should be in our team right now, and I genuinely have no idea how he's doing at Annan, but there's no doubt that he was playing very well when Dougie initially came in and we went on a bit of a run and *at the time* should not have dropped out of the team. If Calum Waters is the replacement then it's even more bizarre not to at least offer Strapp something. He's not very good.
  12. This is now the 3rd homegrown player that Dougie's treatment of is questionable. Reece Lyon was excellent when Dougie first came in before being left out for no good reason then scapegoated every time he did play. Lewis McGrattan this season who's bizarrely fell way down the pecking order despite being an extremely important part of every good spell we've had all season. Now he doesn't want a player as good as Lewis Strapp?
  13. Confirmed today that Lewis Strapp is not part of Dougie's plans moving forward. He must have another one of his mates lined up for left back...
  14. Of course they deserved it. We scored from a penalty that should never have been given and our only other decent chance was the Muirhead free kick off the bar. There's absolutely nothing from open play. Persisting with Miller and Crawford has been our downfall and it's on Dougie.
  15. Never want to see Ali Crawford or Calvin Miller again..
  16. Fair point ... if we completely ignore the fact that Dougie chose to go with Schwake for the season, Dougie didn't sign real back up, Dougie has persisted with Blues all year who's proven over 100 games that he's not actually any good, and Dougie has completely changed the teams shape and style to accommodate Ali Crawford (and Calvin Miller but I'll stick with the players you specifically think cost us). Apart from that though...
  17. I mean more for our general poor form and our season being over, not specifically tonight's result. Although when you are chasing a win and the only sub you bring on is Calvin Miller then you've got a problem..
  18. Not for the first time either... He's got to take his fair share of the blame tbh. Team selections baffling, changing from a winning system, and persisting with Calvin fucking Miller while ignoring Lewis McGrattan.
  19. Obvious that was coming but Schwake really is fucking terrible. Has got worse as the seasons gone on...
  20. Shock we look better without Calvin Miller .. Bit worried we've only managed to go in 1 up though.
  21. So Dougie admits he got the team wrong then effectively puts the same shite out again today... Already seen enough of Calvin Miller to say that he's not good enough, whether it is left side of right side. Get him out the starting XI now. Muirhead and Oakley together is just making us go long every time but then Crawford can't get close enough to them now to pick up the scraps. If anyone would like to explain why our goalkeeper is trying to waste time towards the end of that game then I'd love to hear it...
  22. I'd be surprised if it's off, but I've been surprised at other postponements this season...
