steelmen Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Assuming we get the same Watt that left, that would certainly help bring some fight and energy to the team. heard Simo was getting (got ) punted from his team… he would add some bite to the midfield. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swello Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 58 minutes ago, Jim McLean's Ghost said: We conceded 1 goal at the weekend. 1 goal against County, 1 goal against Livingston. And we only took 2 points. As much as the back line is making ridiculous errors the number of goals we actually concede would be fine if we could actually put the ball in the net ourselves. Aye - we shouldn't confuse the proportion of shite goals we concede with the actual number, which is totally fine compared to the rest of the league. We don't score enough, which just makes things harder for us. We're still operating on really fine margins, so either the defence stop conceding needless goals or our attack start producing more - either will win us more points (and I'd be quite happy if it was the goal scoring that got better TBH). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's one of the harsh realities of football that an attack which misses chances but scores one or two most weeks is doing its job while a defence which keeps out 95% of attacks but sells the shirts at least once a game fundamentally isn't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allroy for Prez Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I’ve heard a few folk say Mandron is a bad one so Watt coming back would effectively replace him. I’d be all for it to be honest but I would be very very surprised if it happened. It’s a non starter and just a bit of fun, but I reckon I’d take back every ex-Well player (bar Polworth and Gallagher) currently playing in the premier league! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eliphas Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 It's an odd odd conundrum the goals conceded and goals scored column. On one hand we aren't really conceding a lot of goals, only 2 less than Hearts in 3rd, but every single one is terrible so it does shine a light on it. Hearts have scored plenty mind you. But, we've only conceded 3 more than Livi in 4th and actually scored 2 more than them! They are 12 points ahead....fine margins is bloody right. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen this mentioned too. But nothing from the club. It would sum up our luck at the moment if it were true. Hopefully turn out to be incorrect .

Stevie Kirk Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I think we might see 4 out and three in tomorrow Out - Sol/ Sods/ Shields/ Morris in - LB / RCH and either a DM or the bold Tony SOL came down the clap the fans at the end on Saturday and it did feel like a goodbye. An ironic cheer came up when Shields was subbed, there was a bit of booing when he went off and he was straight down the tunnel. I didn’t join in but the context was that he dodged a 50/50 which could have lead to a breakaway and injured himself trying to get out the way. i reckon Morris will head south and pick up a gig there where he is a known quantity. Can see ODonnell rocking up at Queens Park or Thistle . It will likely all be loans though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Handsome_Devil Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Carson Devlin, Gallagher, Dunne, Tait MOH, Donnelly, Polworth Watt White, Main Ignoring Turnbull that's an ex XI in the top-flight... wouldn't score many but I reckon they'd defend well enough to have as much chance of staying up as our current team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YassinMoutaouakil Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Say what you like about Tony Watt (please, do), but it's undeniable that he's big time as f**k. There's no way he's rocking up at "Salford City" or "St Mirren." 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dezz Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 Aw boo. Tony coming back would have been a good laugh. Hope we go for something else a bit mental tomorrow…some washed up former EPL/international player or something like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kapowzer Posted January 30, 2023 Share Posted January 30, 2023 I think overlook Tony Watt in our team was the last time we had any sort of bite. I'd say that was more of a factor than Mandron's injury, or I'd hope it would be. He's on +£6k at United, our top must be on £2.5-3k, I'm sure as far as Dundee United are concerned they'd rather get the lions share and not aid a potential relegation battler. It has England written all over it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
