crazylegsjoe_mfc Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 @Handsome_Devil’s point about Goss isn’t something I’d joined the dots about, but is spot on. I was actually warming to him before Slattery went out the team. Maybe Goss has been partially a victim of his environment. Oh and whilst he wasn’t the best passer we’ve ever seen, if Sol can be a fraction of the player that Stephen Craigan was for Motherwell, we’ll be doing alright. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ropy Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 I thought we scored good goals and conceded poor ones. (Does everyone think that?). I thought St Mirren knocked it about the middle better than us. Mugabi was terrified to make a tackle then slid into one in the last 10 minutes, his forte was the shielding of the ball for the last quarter of an hour, saved us bringing on another defender. The fourth goal killed the game (obvious?), St Mirren seemed to lose heart at that point. Delighted with the win. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovely to know they never stop thinking about us. Morton fan talking to his 16 year old Dad..."Have you ever seen Morton play a game in the top league?"

Coventry Saint Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 2 minutes ago, AW saint said: He is coming across as desperate and deluded Yep, I think he's very transparently getting his excuses in. The thing is, several things can be true at the same time: We were frequently shite before he arrived; Finishing comfortably safe should have been a simple task; He's failed to get a tune out of a squad that absolutely should be good enough for at least survival; We frequently went on equally shambolic runs under Goodwin; Robinson's team selection has sometimes been woeful but he's frequently picked our best available team in their best positions and we've still been shite; We always had a solidity about us under Goodwin and that has completely disappeared; Players seem to be hugely underperforming now: we are less than the sum of our parts... I could go on. It's clearly not a black and white situation, but on balance I think Robinson has fucked this. Assuming we crawl over the line and stay up, of course he gets the summer, but pressure will be in very, very quickly next season if we don't start well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come in to a team with lots of confidence and destroy it by telling players they aren’t that good and won’t be getting new deals. FFS, all he had to do was tell them they had it all to play for and that they were playing for new deals in the summer. Basic leadership and motivation, but no, he has now got a dressing room that seems to have downed tools and might very well relegate us, after all why would they care? If I’m not going to be here then I have a better chance of a deal if Saints go down and someone else stays up that might sign me. WTF is he thinking with comments like these? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingscot Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 It's not looking good for Robinson tbh. The start he's had has been appalling and if he takes us into the playoff places I doubt he'll get the summer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're 6 points ahead of St Johnstone with 6 to play. In our last 6 games we've taken 3 points, St Johnstone have taken 10. It's not looking great at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arch Stanton Posted April 2, 2022 Share Posted April 2, 2022 Robinson has allegedly told half-a-dozen or more players that they will not be at the club beyond this season. However, given how small the squad is currently (only 5 subs today instead of the permitted 9), he was asking those players to finish top 6 and now that is gone, asking them to keep us up. While they are professionals, what a totally demotivational blow it must be being told you'll only be in your current job for another 6 weeks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
