Rjc-1988 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 I can't believe we're seriously entertaining the laughable notion that whether Dobbie is any good as captain or not has the slightest relevance to our defending of set pieces. I think rjc has completely lost the plot here.I didn’t say that Dobbie’s captaincy was responsible for our defending at set pieces and you made that statement because you didn’t like the tenor of my argument. I know it’s very hard for you to believe that the only explanation for anybody holding a different view to your own is that it is laughable or that they must have “lost the plot”. I am making a perfectly reasonable observation. In any team sport there is a huge correlation between great on field leadership and a winning mentality. If you can find 4/5 captains in the same team so much the better. We haven’t won a single competitive match in 2020 and I don’t think we have had good on field leadership and organisation since Chris Higgins & Co were there.I have made my point and you strongly disagree - let’s leave it that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rjc is right in identifying a lack of leadership playing a part in our continually shambolic defending against crosses. It therefore doesn't necessarily need a huge leap to relate this to the captaincy. Captaincy and leadership are related, but not synonymous however. The fact that so many seem unsure of their responsibilities also throws into question the leadership on offer all week, between matches. I’m not convinced they are unsure of their responsibilities. Even pub teams practise defending corners. And the players must know who they are supposed to be marking. Johnston was in charge before and I don’t remember this being an issue even when we played the better teams. Imo, and I could be wrong, on certain occasions they are choosing not to bother. I don’t know why that would be, though. I am also not convinced that having a different type of captain would make any difference. I think if you have a bunch of players who don’t care or work hard enough, you could have Roy Keane in his prime in the team and it would make no difference to them. If players don’t have the right attitude to begin with, I don’t think there is any way to change it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure we wouldn’t be losing as many goals because of players being lazy and losing their men if they thought they were going in to a locked dressing room with a prime Roy Keane. After that second goal on Saturday the changing room would have resembled a royal rumble. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In fact I don't even understand the second question never mind know the answer. Mr X is the man for it but he won't be on here before evening. It's the exact system Dunfermline are using so will be the same as theirs if that helps? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough. @Mr X, wondering if you can clarify/if you know: Using QoSTV: 1) When will a password reset option roll out? 2) Am I restricted to only viewing the stream on the device I purchased it on? I ask because it was purchased via a transaction on a PC, with the intention to log onto an iPad to watch it. Rather than view on the PC.

19QOS19 Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 How do you watch via Firestick ?Have you got the Firefox app? It's just a web browser and you effectively do what you would do on a PC/Laptop except you have to use the Fire TV remote. Easy enough though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letting users set their own password is, how shall I put it, "under discussion" To be honest, the extra security aspect is one thing but the system holds no info on you at all, other than your email address, so its about as low risk as you can get 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
