Torfason Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 What exactly are we doing in training, playing fecking pool is my guess because it certainly isn’t finishing? That is not good enough against 10 men, I get Accies are hard to beat but we had plenty of chances and never looked like taking any of them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malky3 Posted September 21, 2019 Share Posted September 21, 2019 It was poor, poor stuff today. I know it's Hamilton and that you seldom get entertainment when Hamilton are involved, but St Mirren showed a complete lack of urgency all game long. What is the point of those stupid short corners? It doesn't look like there has been a practised routine or any clever organised in there so why do it? They couldn't even claim it changed the angle of the cross cause 9 times out of 10 the cross never came in. It was a complete waste of an opportunity. When we did finally stick the ball in the middle we got our two shots on target - the header that was saved by the keeper, and the follow up with the goal bound shot was cleared by Obika. There were no quick free kicks, instead our players seemed more happy to waste time debating incidents and decisions with the referee than getting the ball into the box and firing shots at their keeper. And I'm utterly bored watching Danny Mullen desperately throwing himself to the floor and playing the dying swan role that he does every time he plays. I'm surprised at how poor we've gotten under Jim. I thought he was a winner, but there weren't many of that squad today that seemed to have the desire to make winning happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not fire bullets Goodwin's way just yet. There is only one problem in the team that being strikers. Goodwin should get some closed door games to get the striker/ partnership right. Unfortunately I feel this will be our let down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That isn't the only problem. Look at the performance against Hamilton. They were down to 10 men, Jim Goodwin claims he was frustrated by the amount of time Hamilton wasted, yet when the ball was in play and Hamilton were in possession St Mirren weren't doing a high press. Instead they retreated back to the edge of their own box and let Hamilton have as much of the ball as they wanted. There was no urgency at all in the St Mirren play. When they did get the ball either there was a slow constructed build up or they shelled the ball forward to Morais or Obika who were left to attempt to outrun three or four Accies defenders without any support from any of their team mates. The short corners were bizarre. Players lined up in the penalty box waiting on the ball coming in, presumably all ready to hit their mark, and instead a short ball gets played and the ball never comes in to the box. Whose idea is that rubbish? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demented Zebra Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Took the car on Saturday so did not bother with the 1877 club. Hearing Gus and Tony were taking about recruitment that Haki is away in January. Sounds like a deal has been done. Any posters at the club on Saturday ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demented Zebra Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 Just seen a video of the interview in the club. I'm not picking up he is gone January. He wont sign a new deal as he wants to play in England. Fair enough his contract is up in the summer. I would not think cashing in on January would yield decent cash. He could be the saviour of our season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elvis Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 He could bring in a few Bob. And Lyness is a good keeper so don't see it being a problem if he goes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geo87 Posted September 23, 2019 Share Posted September 23, 2019 I think it will depend on how we’re doing come Jan, if we (dare I say it) look safe then I reckon we will cash in, in the likely scenario that we are in trouble then I would like to think we will keep hold of him 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve never noticed any trouble against St Mirren before nor have I heard of the W7. It’s clear they are just young guys but I was wondering if this seemed to be a one off incident or are these guys causing trouble for the club generally?

Demented Zebra Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 After the Aberdeen game everyone was hopeful this was going to be a decent season which lasted for weeks. 7 games in it's clear to see this will be a squeaky bum season. Cant believe how bad junior is he is a striker in name only. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silvio Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Difference is this season we are going to be terribly hard to beat. Last season we would have lost both those home games, this year we got 2pts out of 6. Long hard season ahead definitely, but I dont think we're going to have one of those crazy January windows this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t have the best game, but I don’t think we played to his strengths. We constantly tried to give him the ball with his back to goal and I don’t think that’s his game. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Long hard season ahead definitely, but I dont think we're going to have one of those crazy January windows this year. Spot on. In January we might see a couple of players going out and coming in but it'll be nothing like having to move on a dozen players to make way for half a new team.I still reckon there's a good chance we can start getting goals. There are no stand out goal scorers but Mullen is capable of bagging a few, Magennis, McAllister are bound to chip in with some. Possibly Cooke too when he's fit again. I'm still hopeful that Morais and Obika can find their shooting boots. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never booed the team in my entire life. We have some decent players but we also have a few not so good. The balance is not yet right. 7 games in how many goals have our strikers scored. Defence is good. Midfielders mostly good. Strikers is a problem dont score goals your going to be in trouble. We always have been a yoyo club that unfortunately will not change. Yet look at the success of Motherwell, St Johnstone staying in top flight football if only we could emulate them. We live and hope.
