Jean Louis Valois Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 nothing has changed. We were terrible last season, played ok in a final we still lost in.

Tenor Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 I genuinely don't understand how people are happy to accept results like this. We're a top 6 Premiership side, and we struggled at home against a team recently relegated to the 4th tier! I'm desperate to get excited about the forthcoming season... but how can we?!

It’s still early doors. It's possibly the early season kick up the arse they needed. The pre seasons over, results matter now and this was a reminder of that. I’m not too worried yet. Obviously if we don’t start the league well, then we look back at the previous two seasons and think that we can’t have another one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gowestjambo Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Thank Christ our Muppet of a manager actually signed someone worthwhile in Craig Halkett. Apart from that there is no difference from the woeful end of last season. The Happy deluded Clappers can carry own in their own wee world. Until we sign Creative Midfielders and actual Goal Scorers we will not improve. Mr Dodger - stick you Crayons where the sun doesn't shine.....

kila Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 What a frustrating game against a bottom tier side. Plenty shots, their keeper did well. But there was always going to be lots of shots and possession given we were at home against that sort of opposition. Not a convincing win at all. Things just seem slow and predictable. The play can be direct at times, and there can be some good movement and passes, but then for large chunks of time there is so little of that. That was a bit of a theme the last season or two... OK it is still 'pre season' given it is only July, but I am starting to fear the worst again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK it is still 'pre season' given it is only July, but I am starting to fear the worst again! I think it’s the crucial things we fall down on. Our shooting/finishing is woeful alot of the time and when in good positions. Overhit or underhit crosses are more common than balls that get the opposition defence concerned. You aren’t going to score off every cross or cut back but we rarely find a maroon jersey or put it in an inviting area.

Carronlea Jambo Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 I don't post on here often Before I get any "troll" feedback I am a long term ST holder, Wheatfield F. If anybody thinks that this team is ready to challenge then they are as delusional as our manager. We are TOOTHLESS and SPINELESS. We are not in any way shape or form any better than the toothless and spineless team from last season that won 1 game in 12 or whatever it was. A half decent performance in the Cup Final plus a late victory over a League 2 team will no doubt keep this man in a job but we are in for a long, hard season ahead. Why are we willing to accept this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
