innerjambo Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Could we not play the women's team, instead of the men's in this league. It's worth a shot, better players and a different manager, which would be the biggest benefit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TurboT Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 2 points from 4 home games against Ross Co, Hamilton, Killie and Motherwell. I’m sorry but I don’t care who we’ve got out injured, I’m still expecting to pick up at least a couple of wins there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jambogemz Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Even with the players available we should be doing much better. To many players playing out of possession in a system that's been changed mid-game most of the time it's been used. What's wrong with 4 at back? Why not play McLean with Meshino getting a free role behind? Its Kilmarnock at home, a team we should be attacking from the off at Tynecastle. People say the players are shite but the Goalkeeper looks decent so far. Berra and Smith are good players and Clevid is decent back up. Hickey is a great talent who's excelled at left back. Glen Whealen is probably one of our best players, young Irving looks a talent, McLean is past his best but is still a useful and intelligent player, a good foil for Meshino at home against sides like Kilmarnock.

JJ93 Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 50 minutes ago, annushorribilis III said: Fair enough. What does she see that we are all missing ? Probably how well we did last season before Naismith’s injury and loads of other players too. I genuinely think that is the basis of her faith in Craig. And to be fair we were a class above. But that was a long time ago and managers who face bad luck - which he undeniably has faced and too often - need to show their worth in these situations too and he hasn’t done that enough. But would a new manager make a difference right now? Not sure. Maybe. But the way he started the team on the weekend was ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cambo Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 We have a shell of a team, even with everyone available and the blame once again lies with the manager and the symbolic and panicky recruitment policy. Motherwell have a genuine strategy when it comes to signing players and they stick to it, whether it works or not. This season they have unearthed some gems, last season, they didnt but they stayed true to their policy. We wait until Manchester United loans department gets in touch before we do anything about the goalkeeper position. Shows manager didn't think it was a problem in summer. Lack of focus and awareness once again. It is simply not good enough and we are in the mire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwidoug Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 In summary, despite missing many of our better players, we can still field a decent side which should be doing much better than it is. That is down to Craig Levein. My view remains that he should have either walked or been shown the door after 0-5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with the injuries the team is rank containing players that are either not good enough or unable to be utilised correctly by a poor management team. Even if Levein had a full squad to choose from he has shown consistently that he is incapable of putting a team onto the park that would hurt the opposition. I watched them in the early season against Cowdenbeath before the injuries took place and they were hopeless. They were set up not to lose against a part time outfit with the signs already there that this clown has no clue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newton51 Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 The warning signs were there during pre season and the league cup. Didn’t play well but consistently went with 442. First game of the league season then go with 352. He can’t help himself and not tinker.

i8hibsh Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Macphee really is a mystery. A complete footballing unknown where his previous work experience was putting out the cones and handing the bibs out to primary kids. He then writes to Craig'l' fix it and hey presto he is asst manager at Scotland's third biggest club. 3 years later he is still there. Doing what exactly? The only thing improved under him is that the lassies team get better hair straighteners when he lends his oot. As for Fox, Daly and Gallacher. **** me. They are a remote control without batteries. So pointless you have to get up of the sofa and change the channel yourself. What an absolute cluster****. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's obvious we are just unlucky and the manager isn't actually shite. Hopefully we let him sign another 10 players in January and I'm sure this time we will get it right. We don't have the quality in the squad to beat teams like Hamilton, Ross county, killie etc. Can't blame the manager for that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusk_Till_Dawn Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 It’s amazing - Budge and Levein have managed to condition our support to accept that regular defeats at home to Kilmarnock and the like are just the natural run of things and nothing to fret about.
