Francesc Fabregas Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Falkirk's defending at Dundee United's first goal is the worst I've seen this season, truly jaw-dropping in how dreadful it is. Rachid Bouhenna just runs between two static defenders to head home, who then turn around and start pointing at one another. Who is the older of the two Falkirk TV commentators? He often begins sentences with "I'm sorry, but..." when pointing out a perceived slight against his team. He also said Paul McMullan stole in at the back post to score, despite him running down the centre of the pitch. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harkes allowed to receive the ball completely unchallenged 25 yards from goal from a throw in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fantastic Do I catch it right that the co commentator says’s its more than we deserve when the second went in? I don’t think he could have complained if that had been number 4. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 (edited) My word. I've been of a mind that Falkirk might beat County next week - everything to play for up against a side with one eye on Ibeefa and half the reserves starting - but, after seeing those highlights, a couple of corners and a well worked throw in and County will be cruising. There are four Falkirk defenders apparently marking each other for that first goal. I genuinely can't tell if that was zonal-gone-wrong or total inability to man mark. Either way, lordy, I hope there are tapes and I hope those tapes are on Kettleson's desk. And I do like that chance where the right back thinks about trying to get back in position, and then decides he can't be arsed. Yeah, that's relegation defending right there.

We havent just been doom merchants when we are saying we dont fancy winning even the games where the opposition have nothing to play for. A few weeks back I woukd have backed us to beat you at home once the title was wrapped up but something has changed and there is not fight or organisation left. Confidence shot to pieces. To beat a better team only playing at 80% you still need to be close to 100% yourself. It is very doable, but it isnt for free. A freebie is what we need currently as the players are incapable of taking it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dundee Hibernian Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 Did I hear some Falkirk fans booing the sub who subbed the half time sub? Kidd, the tubby player? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just guessing, but it looks likely they've all been told they're getting emptied if we go down. Would explain why the only two trying are the loan players who have contracts to go home to. McKinnon has certainly not helped. Most of us have had bosses that have no motivational skills and he falls into that category. You don’t want to work for them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to think if I was in the 600-1k a week category for kicking a ball around that I could be arsed enough to put myself in the shop window for my next contract though. None of these duffer can though. Yes I agree. The majority of our players have been a disgrace. I can’t see us coming straight back up either. We don’t have the right attitude around the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The other guy is hopeless and is no different to some drunk zoomer in the seat next to you. The "I'm sorry but" nonsense is only surpassed by his lack of volume control & no awareness he has a microphone in front of him. He will roar at the top of his voice with no warning and I'm up & down on the remote's volume buttons so much I have contracted white finger. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(It isn't shown but the Falkirk fans were standing on the wall at the end of the game losing their shit, very funny to watch.) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
