Dark Passenger Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 Well, Alba highlighted the third instance of elbowing. No reason why Sportscene shouldn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaucho Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 Total **** up with coverage of Higgy's quick free kick, but you can just see the ball rolling before he hit it so Ref should have pulled it back. Yet again were done by incompetence of a Ref. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angry gaz Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 noticed on Alba that Lindsay got turned and nearly gave away a penalty as well when Maginnes hit the post at the end of the first half as well . Didnt see that clearly from the North at the game.. It was Killies main tactic to target that one on one with him and Magennis and the manager should have sorted it out long before LL was sent off. Liam will have to cut that out of his game, Ive seen him get too close and been turned in almost every game he's played. He's going to be a cracking player but Archie and Shaggy really need to work on that aspect of his game with him on the training ground or every striker in the league will do that to him. A tough lesson hopefully learned today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veejag Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Great points Angry Gaz. But if you were in the position to pick one former defender to coach a young, very capable defender then it'd be Shaggy. The guy still oozes class. The way both Lindsay and Hendry mauraude with the ball brings back memories of Paterson. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet again were done by incompetence of a Ref. Got to give Killie credit for this goal. Quick thinking and guile from Higgy just left us napping. Don't think we can blame the ref for this one. Our defence should have been more alert... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somebody should have stood in front of Higgy to stop the free kick being taken........and accepted the booking for the team! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenziejag Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Or kicked away, just like the Killie player did earlier on in the half Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Earl of Hathaway Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Morton vs St.Mirren live now Watching it now, and noticed Fatty Forbes in distinctly unflattering stripes. Skilful footballer but a shiftless cnut otherwise. Game seems to have calmed down from the initial mental derby pace. Some very poor quality singing going on as well.

Forbes is a good player in a good team but an absolute liability in a poor team. Given the club he's with, bar games against sevco, I hope it's the latter. Personally I find it quite sad that we don't see guys with his ability, unless they're blessed with a bit of pace and/or strength playing in the top division' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Passenger Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Two things to note about Forbes tonight: 1. He's looking trim. 2. By far the best player on that pitch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottyDFA Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 Felt bad when we offloaded Forbes. He got slagged off for lacking work-rate, but wasn't he working shifts when he played for us? He could open a can of peas with his left foot, when he'd had a good night's sleep... Cracking player. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kennymac29 Posted August 21, 2015 Report Share Posted August 21, 2015 I think it was more so for lacking spuds, any 50/50 he sh*t it. No bottle plenty of talent but lazy. Looking for a foul rather than winning the ball. No thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely working shifts when he was on the pitch. When he signed for the Pars after us, I warned a Dunfermline supporting mate of mine about his work rate. Oh no, I was assured, he's a quality footballer. Sure enough, two months in they wanted shot of him. No doubt about his ability or talent, but definitely needs to work harder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lady-isobel-barnett Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 I think for once Archie has to take a lot the blame for why Forbes had to be released. Don't get me wrong I'm all in favour of the manager demanding a high work rate and from his midfielders in particular. He should just have taken a little more care that Ross didn't take things too literally when asked to put in a shift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambies Lost Doo Posted August 22, 2015 Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 Loved Ross Forbes too and thought he'd handle the step up to the top division. He played in the first few games scoring against St Mirren and looking decent. Highlights for me were his goal v Dunfermline in the 5-1 game and his work and cross to get the equalizer against QOTS in Challenge Cup Final. If he has a lack of pushing himself there is only so much a manager can do. Sir Alex couldn't sort out Ravel Morrison and SAF was best in the business.
