Rjc-1988 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Are we still needing to tie down contracts for all these terrific players and our glorious management team?By the time this season ends GN will have had half a season followed by two full seasons in charge with the full benefit of Dobbie’s brilliance at his disposal.

QoS_Blue1919 Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 I had a wee feeling we might win this one simply because this Alloa team has consistently been good at responding well to setbacks. And in truth we haven't really been off the boil big time anyway. Yeah the two defeats against Falkirk and Partick were a major blow, but those were still two tight games and we were playing really well previously. Very small margins. Fantastic result today anyway and very important response to the aforementioned defeats. Lot of people writing us off the last few days but this Alloa team won't go quietly. Spot on. I’m left eating my words completely. Although, with no disrespect to Alloa, if there ever was a game to get us back on track then this should have been it. But fair play, Alloa are a tough team to beat, especially this season. If they stay up it’ll be a minor miracle considering the teams in the league. GN’s interview is quite shocking. I’ve never seen him not shoulder the blame, today he very much put it on the defending of players (and rightly so) and even named them. Worrying times ahead for us, but I still think he’s the man for the job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SUPERSOUTH Posted February 23, 2019 Share Posted February 23, 2019 Witnessed a lovely moment before today's game by the Alloa chairman Mike Mulraney who handed over his pile of halftime draw tickets he bought to young Queens fans sat in front of the directors box.

How can we continue to be so bad at defending them? you would have thought an ex scotland international defender off many senior clubs would be able to teach players how to defend a ball into the box .

It's an absolute basic at any level of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Semple played 15.5 league games in which we conceded 20 goals - an average of 1.29 goals per game. We have played 9.5 league games without him in the side conceding 11 goals, an average of 1.16 goals per game. And 5 of the 7 goals we have conceded to Alloa in 3 games came with him in the team. An average of 2.5 with him playing and 2 without. Note that Alloa have scored an average of 0.87 goals per game against everybody else and 2.33 goals per game against us.
