Guest Back Post Misses Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Everyone is getting on the back of the recruitment,That is because it was built up to be the best thing since sliced bread and it is a crock of shit. The only Southern recruit I am 100% sure of is Greenwood. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Back Post Misses Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Totally agree. I wonder how he would have played against ICT and Partick had Mackin and Haber been fit for both. Would he have played 2 up top then? Mackin is not good enough 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robson or Russell. 15 hours ago, Back Post Misses said: McGhee should play CH or sit beside us PS same with Muirhead Agree with both of these btw but assuming we have to piss with the cock we have got, its fucking ludicrous that we have two CH's that can play RB in a pinch, but the much better one is shunted to LB at the expense of two bona fide LBs. It's two positions that are much weaker than the options we actually have. It makes no sense whatsoever. Aye we should have signed a RB, but failing that, we are picking the very worst options we can because of the domino effect it has on the team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 That is because it was built up to be the best thing since sliced bread and it is a crock of shit. The only Southern recruit I am 100% sure of is Greenwood. It's still early days. Yes I'm a bit worried by it but it could easily change. Like has been said if Hartley picks a formation like 442 and plays players in their correct positions then we may start to see that improvement 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rocco Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Mackin is not good enough Who could we have signed then? It's easy to say he's not good enough but what were the other options?I think he could be a useful player for us but as I've said before it's still too early to judge 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haber will take the brute slot whenever he is fit. I would have Lewis, O'Hara and even Froxy up beside Haber before Mackin based on yesterday. But Andy Nelson beside Haber is the moist tip scenario here 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Andy Nelson beside Haber is the moist tip scenario here Is it fair to judge Mackin on his performance when he was playing up top on his own and we played shit. If he's still shit in a run of games with someone beside him then fair enough 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's still shit in a run of games with someone beside him then fair enoughNo. But he is not as good as Haber. Mackin is the big guy when Haber is out I think, but either guy needs a partner. Im not criticising Mackin too much from yesterday. He was onto a loser before the first whistle. I am unsure if I will make the Queens game, but by f**k il be seething if we dont play two up front and have a go at them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haber will win everything in the air whereas Mackin won't. He is big and strong and has previously shown he has a good touch. Time will tell though 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 (edited) My thoughts on the new signings so far Encouraging signs: Haber Greenwood Fasan Irving Harrison Jury still out: Lewis Dallison Petravicius Owen-Evans Paton Froxylias Russell A bit shit: Sammut (thankfully only on loan) Brough Mackin (surely wouldn't have been signed if we'd known Haber would become available) Turner (thankfully only on loan) I reckon around 60% of the guys in my jury still out list will turn out to be decent, with the other 40% going in to the shit list. Sammut may well turn in to a good player but we simply can't afford to give him that kind of time Edited August 12, 2018 by NavyBlueArmy1876 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

falkirkthebigclub Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 (edited) A 5th place finish, at best, with that squad. Starting to worry we'll see some of them down tools if things aren't going our way after half a dozen games. Starting to feel the doom, fellow P&Bers.

So you did nothing, and settled for coming on here moaning about fans moaning, pretty much the most pointless enterprise going.
