Norgethistle Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 We’re just not good enough for this league this season, lost 10 goals in last 3 games, coming up against Celtic on Wednesday, if they play as they can and we defend like we do this could be 7 or 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barney Rubble Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 All over 3-0 and we have shipped 10 goals in a week 8 of them to direct competitors for the bottom two places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paukea Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 One of the reasons our defence is honking is Devine...I don't think he communicates well and at times he's a bomb scare...get him out and get Barton who is woeful in midfield back into the position he was good at last year..in my opinion that is basics and Archie surely must see this..Barton brings a calmness and is good at building the play.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney Rubble Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Our defence will see us relegated. True. As will our midfield and attack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vaila Street Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 One of the slowest professional teams I've ever seen. Storey aside nobody has any pace whatsoever. Add in shocking fitness levels = Championship. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yellow & Redneck Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Proved conclusively that the Motherwell result was a flash in the pan. Twice in a week we have been pumped by our relegation rivals. Time to do your last selfless act as a Jags legend, and at least give us a chance of surviving this season: Archie to walk.

javeajag Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Not surprisingly we only had 360 at the game today 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auld Jag Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Every one of those 360 should be given a medal.Sounds as if xmas shopping would be better than watching us today.Only 3points away from home for us this season,really puts pressure on our home games when our away form is so poor.

JAG1970 Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Archie said: We were second to every ball and Dundee looked like they had more desire than us, certainly in the middle of the pitch. "The goals that were given away were comedy stuff." With Thistle rooted to the bottom of the table, Archibald is already looking ahead to January's transfer window to make changes. He said: "We're still waiting on players coming back. "If we get three or four players back there'll be less changes, but we'll certainly have to make some changes in the transfer window."

JAG1970 Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Archibald told BBC Scotland: "We didn't put enough into the game. I think some of my players thought they were just going to turn up and win today because we won on Wednesday night. Football is not like that.

Barney Rubble Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Waiting on the injured players is frankly naive. Booth, Elliott and Osman all have serious injuries. We will be lucky to see them again this season, and certainly not at the level they were at previously. Banzo, I fear for his career - hope I'm wrong. Muzzy and GazFraz are finished, sadly.

Stephen1876 Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 That was shocking and gutless. When are we going to learn that constantly to backing off costs goals? Incredibly, and the one glimmer of hope, is that if we can win our two home games against Accies and County (despite being awful, we have been picking up results at home of late), we would stand a fighting chance of being off the bottom by the end of the year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonehJags Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 You are 100% right. How many goals do we need to lose before we stop backing off. Thats the most frustrating part of our defending. Its abysmal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auld Jag Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Am I being naïve when I think it is up to the management team to make sure the players are not complacent,make sure they are up for the game and are able to defend?I am also sure I read that Archie said we can not depend on injured players coming back and we have to work with what we have. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weebaw1 Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 I've boycotted away games because we never score any goals. But we are far better at home. We can win both of the upcoming home games. So let's all turn out in numbers and get it right into the opposition. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paukea Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Our defenders can't defend Our midfield can neither defend nor create Our strikers can't create nor score As each week passes Championship football is becoming more and more likely Alex Ferguson couldn't make this current team successful They're woeful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angry gaz Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Just watched it on Alba.Utterly insipid performance from the team in what was the biggest game of the season.The insistence of us hitting the ball from wing to wing is ****1n killing us.Go through the middle for god sake .Zero pace once Storey went off and we cant do the basics of closing down and picking up players. These players aren't good enough to play the system archie wants. We are still trying to play as if we have two attacking full backs who can cross when we have Turnbull ,who couldn't cross the road and McGinn who cant get up the pitch,Dreadful from team and manager.

Jimmy McD Posted December 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Why on earth did he hook Storey at half time if he was injured fine, but he looked ok'. he was full of running in the first half..Bringing on Lawless for Woods was pointless ..Wednesday will be a draw or a 7/8 defeat. Our attendance today was given as 670 somebody gona post out my medal...................... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
