Third Lanark Posted December 29, 2023 Report Share Posted December 29, 2023 Other posters saying we don’t need Turner back - we could do with him back for his set pieces alone. Our free kicks appear to be a case of just passing backwards- no threat whatsoever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney Rubble Posted December 29, 2023 Report Share Posted December 29, 2023 Utterly honking first 30 minutes, United could and perhaps should have been 5-0 up in that period alone. We've gradually built a bit of momentum since then, but I fear that, like the game at Firhill, if United get the next goal we could implode. 1-0 is always retrievable, but Dools needs to have a credible Plan B, because whatever he sent them out to do tonight got blown away in the first quarter of the game.

Big Col Posted December 29, 2023 Report Share Posted December 29, 2023 It really is frustrating when they don’t get the ball straight into the box from a set play. Forget short corners and wee tippy tap passes from free kicks - get the ball in there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Kenny Posted December 29, 2023 Report Share Posted December 29, 2023 Fitzpatrick is either a 9/10 or a 2/10, nothing in between. Compare his output to the United wingers tonight and it’s night and day. Zero effort off the ball from him. Our new favourite tactic of shelling long diagonals doesn’t do us any favours either. We started the game tonight with zero belief we could win and out performance matched that. United are a poor team, it’s a poor standard of league this year so heaven knows why we sit off them so much. Young Diack looks decent, deserves a shot. We really need some midfielders in January.

Jag36 Posted December 29, 2023 Report Share Posted December 29, 2023 Totally fed up with this team, why is bannigan still getting a game, sneddon absolutely no confidence in him and muirhead if you're injured go down and get treatment. Also why take stanway off again 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elevenone Posted December 29, 2023 Report Share Posted December 29, 2023 If I never see Bannigan in a Thistle jersey again it will be too soon. If Dools cannot see that then he is friendship blind. And take defence with you. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney Rubble Posted December 29, 2023 Report Share Posted December 29, 2023 Two highest priorities in this transfer window: 1) A defensive coach 2) A CDM that is a dirty ******* (good luck finding one of those in a January window) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JAG1970 Posted December 29, 2023 Report Share Posted December 29, 2023 No real surprise given our known weaknesses. We’ve conceded 14 goals and taken just one point from the two teams above us in four games. But if we can strengthen in January and keep our best players then a play off spot is there for the taking. And it’s not nice tippy tappy signings, it’s players with aggression and mental strength to win individual battles and drive those around them. Whether that can be found is another matter of course.

javeajag Posted December 29, 2023 Report Share Posted December 29, 2023 We have conceded 30 goals in 18 league games, we can’t defend properly and running through our midfield is far too easy. Serious questions for Doolan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dl1971 Posted December 29, 2023 Report Share Posted December 29, 2023 Tonight just confirms we are not good enough to compete for the title. Play offs it will be. Can only hope we strengthen in January. Edited to add our entire midfield is very poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
