  1. Laurie Ellis won a manager of the month early on and he too was rubbish.
  2. Incredible that we are the team supposed to be defending the goal in this photo
  3. Any scenario where Robin Veldman remained in charge this season would have seen us with significantly less points than we have now, regardless of January signings. He was a disaster and I saw nothing to suggest things would improve.
  4. He’d have lost us games by repeatedly subbing all three of them at the same time when a goal up with five minutes to go…………….followed each time by an interview where he talks about “learnings”
  5. I think that’s unlikely as they have already started completely re-seeding the pitch (the company that maintains the pitch posts the odd picture on their social media)
  6. Davidson has made some mistakes in recent weeks for sure but no doubt the root cause of the situation we find ourselves in was LeeAnn Dempster (and others) giving Marijn Beuker full control of the first team in the summer.
  7. Any of Fox, Bannon or Robson should have started ahead of Tizzard today. How many times has he been hooked at half time now? Must be some kind of record. In fact two of them should have started with Thompson pushed into midfield.
  8. Last 3 weeks they’ve been playing like someone’s given them the nod that city Stadium in league 1 is the preferred outcome
  9. He’s gone from “should be ok” for the Morton game to to his injury not even being mentioned in the 5 minute “captains preview” interviews we do with him.
  10. Well deserved victory for ICT. A stroll in the park for them to be honest. Hitting some form at the right time. As for QP, an absolute disgrace all round. A game of such magnitude and we put in a performance like that. Davidson going with two empty jerseys in midfield again instead of playing Thompson there. No quality or urgency on show from the players. Dismal dismal stuff and our forthcoming relegation will be well deserved.
  11. Yes Unlike the 2 X Raith Rovers catastrophes under the previous regime, a triple sub was probably justified but like you I can’t understand why not do it at half time. Bizarre from a coach who has got most things right for us prior to today.
  12. Dom Thomas leaves a huge gap in the team but I just can’t fathom why Davidson thought the Turner/Mckinstry midfield combination was the way to go when we know it just doesn’t work. Turner has shown he can be moderately competent a bit further up the park but in the position he played today he offers nothing. Mckinstry shouldn’t even be in the match day squad for the rest of the season. That’s not to say the rest of the team were much better and their removal didn’t exactly improve things Dundee United were excellent, much improved from the previous 0-0 game at Hampden.
  13. Walk in the park for United so far who look a lot more confident and sharp than the last time they played here. Davidson fucked it though selecting Turner and Mckinstry in midfield again. Absolute passengers panicking on the rare occasions they get the ball. Thomson should be in midfield, Mckinstry in the stand and if Turner is playing he needs to be further forward.
  14. The club president, wearing training gear, being in the photos for player contract announcements would be weird at any other football club
  15. Scott was limping, no way he gets brought off otherwise. Noticeable drop off in our attacking threat once Sheridan went off for Mckinstry. Be great if we can get him for enough to last longer in games.
  16. It’s like they have made a terrible choice from the Adidas template catalogue. A simple but effective design (like they nailed for the 150th) was what was required.
  17. With Jason Leitch away who is going to keep us safe now? Cant wait for him and Devi’s new podcast
  18. That ridiculous tartan third kit was never worn in a competitive fixture, diminishing its value as a charity fund raiser. As did the fact it was launched in late January, missing the opportunity for Christmas purchases.
  19. Looking forward to the exact same thing happening to the exact same people this Christmas when they spend £40 a ticket on the latest “Winter Wonderland Experience”
  20. Wilson in at the back and Thomson in midfield instead of Turner or Mckinstry is the way forward for the team. We were organised and generally solid today but the midfield (other than Welsh) struggled to get on the ball.
  21. Whilst I still have Morton as favourites to win, I feel more confident going into this game against them than previously. Dutch philosophyball has been completely abandoned and we look much more like an actual football team now. I think the only question mark over our team will be whether Danny Wilson is ready for his debut. Tizzard has been better in the last couple of games but Wilson was signed for a reason, not sure if there were any friendlies this week for him to get some minutes. Notice Morton fans are in the right hand side of the stand this time.
  22. I think you might be right https://news.sky.com/story/president-joe-biden-wilfully-disclosed-classified-information-but-wont-face-criminal-charges-13067069
  23. How did the guy Savage look for you on Saturday? We’ve signed a guy who seems to have been the left back in the same Newcastle age group team that he was in.
