And as a child of the 80s Ally McCoist wasn't criticised regularly at all. The Buns fans adored him. Because he scored 1,690 goals a season. Main point of the comparison to mccoist was the rewards of giving somebody a chance who "gets into the positions", like Alegria done very well yesterday, in my opinion. As also a child of the 80's I remember well the criticism Mccoist used to come in for when he first signed for them because he missed so many chances, pretty sure it was a couple of seasons before they took to him when the penny finally sank... he might miss 200 silly chances a season but still sticking it in the back of the net 40 or 50 times was actually the important bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They showed 8 attempts on goal from Morrison, one goal. There lies the reason he is in L1. Not sure the point. There’s reasons why all player are in League 1. Still the most talented player at the club and if he was to be replaced then it’s with someone who has their own faults.

If he was scoring 4/8 Chances he would be playing at a higher level. He doesn’t, his decision making is still iffy and plenty games his attitude has been suspect. Play like he played yesterday he is a huge asset. He has to be much more consistent from here 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Morrison is one of the most talented players in this league. We’d struggle to find someone of his ability let alone with more consistency.

Regardless though he will create chances in all games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Others might step up if he’d pass the ball to them when in a good position on occasion.He can be as creative as you like but it’ll be no use unless he either converts more or learns to pass to those better placed to score sometimes…. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next should be converting ( hope kills) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 In isolation, yesterday was really good compared to most of our recent past, but if you take the first three games as a grouping, you are looking at just a microcosm of last season……..one draw against a team who were decent last season, but who haven’t scored a goal yet, a heavy defeat to a side that bossed us last season, and a win against what looks to be one of the poorest sides in the league……….4 points from 9. Across a season, that would give us 48 points…..nothing like enough to trouble top spot, but maybe enough to scrape into the play offs. There is certainly nothing concrete to say we have turned a corner. We can only hope that we will turn one soon. The games against the other leading lights in the next 6 games are going to be crucial……..even winning two consecutive games is something we haven’t seen in a while. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think either impressed anyone that saw them. Those 3 goals Wilson got against a pub team probably got him the gig. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arguably Saturdays overall performance was as good as I’ve seen (albeit Phead we’re rank) in the past season or so. Williamsons interview was refreshing as was his honesty and admitting he’s been shite. If he and Morrison can keep consistent, and maintain that level of display, for me we’re playing with maybe only two/three players short (Nesbit & Hetherington and CF) in our starting eleven. If we can get something done before the transfer window with the three mentioned, I don’t think the play offs would be out of reach. Next four games - Edinburgh A - QOS H - Kelty A - Alloa H. All doable and then our noisy neighbours away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AdamAnt Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 That top is an embarrassment but unfortunately we can’t take the high ground on that front. We’re forever singing songs about the Fife lot and unfortunately a friend sent me this posted by a Falkirk fan completely unprompted recently. Horrible stuff. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Duck Posted August 15, 2022 Share Posted August 15, 2022 Anyone know what the script is with tickets for the match this Saturday? Can’t see anything on either club’s website, but presuming it will be all-ticket given the size of the ground! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
