Badonde Posted September 20, 2015 Author Share Posted September 20, 2015 Yup we have been losing because people said we could win the title.........We've been well beaten ever since mate.

I never really thought we could win the title but i wasn't going to say we couldn't whilst unbeaten but now we've lost 3 soon to be 4 on the bounce we can't win it.

.hmfc. Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 we haven't played well basically all season so far so I think it's more to do with being poor than media attention.

Bauld Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Start playing players in their correct positions. With a proper game plan that we stick to and we will be top 3. Keep this shit up and we will scrape top 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N Lincs Jambo Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 What concerns me the most is that since the Hamilton game and all the controversy over Collum and the sending-off, is that the team (and I include the management team in this) looks a complete shambles. Couldn't argue with the ICT result and certainly couldn't argue with that today. I know football is a confidence thing but the Hamilton result should never have been that much of a body blow. If we are going to play 2 men wide and we have players of the calibre of Sam and Billy sitting on the bench then I can only assume they must have done something to piss the management team off....

Keep this shit up and we will scrape top 6. I don't really think that top 6 would be a bad thing for just having come up. Let's be honest with ourselves here, last year we crushed a league that was shite; a broken Rangers, a Hibs team that consistently managed to shoot themselves in the foot, and challenges from QoS and Falkirk that just didn't have enough steam to keep on going.

Bungalow Bill Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Aberdeen have got 2 years on us, I was impressed by them today, their second was a cracker. McGinn was different class, playing for NI as first pick number 10 and going to the Euro's, we have no one like that. I think my expectations for this season were too high. Still, Robbie picking Reilly to play wasn't going to help our cause today. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gambo Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 If that Aberdeen team we saw today is considered title challengers the most of the league must be. They were nowt special tbh, we won the game for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDF01 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Because our manager and players have been shite. Simples.Management should be taking all the blame. Put players in their true position - putting a natural winger on the bench today and playing Reilly on the right?? Juanma ain't a winger and neither is Sow. Chopping and changing the team each week is frustrating. Maybe Levein can buy Robbie champ manager for his PC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michael_bolton Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 Football is a game of averages. Things average out over the season in terms of performance. Our team is nowhere near good enough to win the league. Our early form was always going to be matched by a slump at some point, and here it is. No big deal. We'll finish mid-table somewhere.

Anderson5 Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 If that Aberdeen team we saw today is considered title challengers the most of the league must be. They were nowt special tbh, we won the game for them. In fairness, it looked like Aberdeen could have stepped up a couple of gears if they wanted to. At no point were they under pressure and it seemed their aim from the 24th minute onwards was to finish the game without any injuries or suspensions. I don't think their midfield broke sweat.

N Lincs Jambo Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 If that Aberdeen team we saw today is considered title challengers the most of the league must be. They were nowt special tbh, we won the game for them. They played today with what we played with last season, togetherness and team spirit, belief and a willingness to fight for every ball. They might be nowt special in comparison with their 80s teams but they are a lot better than some on here would have us believe. They finished 17 points behind Celtic last season despite being only 5 behind at the split. They managed only 4 points after the split whereas Celtic took 16 points out of a final 18. Even taking that into consideration, the head-to-heads decided the title. Had Celtic lost them all, they would have finished on 80 points and Aberdeen would have had 87. I know it's a lot of ifs and buts, but they have won against their two closest rivals (so far) and have won their first 8 games, something they never achieved even under SAF. That said, I agree that our defending won the game for them. It was woeful and they took full advantage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jamhammer Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 I think we'll do okay against most teams but we're still a long way shy of yer Celtics and Aberdeen. Partick game was changed by the ref and, fair do's we were poor against ICT We weren't great today against a decent Dons team. Not the end of the world. Fully fit team, games together for the defenders, consistent team selection will see us comfortable top 6. That'll do for me. Gomis is a huge miss the now.

And he's not praying Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 It was cringeworthy. Just words on a screen but honestly? We do have a better squad than the last few weeks have shown, however. Top 6 is the aim but to even achieve that we'll need to improve vastly.
