Fitness might come into it at the end.

More likely us that would be tired with 7 players being on International duty. I'm not shitting it it's just a very competitive even game imo.

unlucky there

[William H. Bonney]

Gordon will be our player of the year. 

[sadj]

I hate this offside thing of waiting for a decade to put the flag up

[Greedy Jambo]

Need some step overs. 

[Nookie Bear]

We need our full backs pushing much further up.

Immobile midfield, full backs as well going in goals. They don’t get up the park.
 

Think he needs to put another midfielder on.  Nothing happening between the front 3.  

Something ain't right

[stevie1874]

Same old usual no decent balls coming in from out wide. 

[GinRummy]

Get Irving on for Halliday anc White on for Frear. Need to get more into this game. 

[dougal]

Halliday not offering anything. When teams press we need to be quick at moving the ball to drag their players around the park. As it is we're too pedestrian with both our movement and our passing. 

[keifrb]

No natural width on the right when trying to accommodate Naismith, Boyce and Wighton.  Robbie needs to have one if these on the bench.

[The Gorgie]

We are not a good team, other than the dundee game we have been dull and slow.

No natural anything to be fair, been the same for the last 6 years.

Fear is pish

Yeah I’m not ready to move on yet 🙈

Why not? Levine has gone.

[Rick Sanchez]

Wighton and Frear off...Boyce out on the right, Naismith upfront with Walker in the 10 and Roberts on the left.

 

Change it up early at half time please.

[Eddie]

Just now and again, Gordon gives me the fear with the ball at his feet 🙈

[BigAlim]

Would take off Frear and halliday, regardless of who comes on in their place

Have a word 🤣🤣🤣

 

On another note everyone knows Im not a Lee fan but hes been assertive and looked good and none of his wee daft boring backward passing tonight so far

Think you’re eyes are painted on

[gashauskis9]

Another shite first half.  Miles off the pace, 2nd to everything, bullied all over the pitch. 

[neilnunb]

Halftime

 

Meh

[Greedy Jambo]

Aye that's right, toe it right up into the air towards their goal keeper, much you getting paid again?

[iantjambo]

What’s he done wrong?

[Cruyff]

Really poor. Lee our best player. Our two centerhalfs need punted when/if we're promoted. 

[ToadKiller Dog]

Dunfermline well organised and physical ,working really hard, hopefully they run out of steam and don't nick a goal.

We need to be better a few too many slack passes, and wrong choices .

OK to a point need more .

[flem]

Better team by far but not creating enough. Far to slow at moving the ball in possession. 

 

 

[Gordon Ramsay]

Pish.

He’s done nothing, never been in the game

[1874robbo]

Piss half imo, sloppy sloppy sloppy!!

out striker also dropping too deep

It's almost like their defenders are trying to stop us. 

 

 

Indeed. They've clearly seen where Dundee went wrong.

[OmiyaHearts]

Laughable quality of passing on show from us tonight. A lot of players off form.

Best player so far in my opinion 

[Des Lynam]

We should look into deducting a point from teams that don’t score. Modern football is a snooze fest.

Tasty thread for you, eh. No crumbs here

[Marvin]

HT need to do better in the second half. 

[Bazzas right boot]

Decent first half, well In control without being too dominate. 

 

Need a bit More width and and imo to be a bit more direct, too much pissing about with sideways passing, go two up top, win the second balls. 

 

Dunfermline offered very little going forward , but competed well and kept their defensive shape well.

[kingantti1874]

Trying to be far too intricate.. 

[Hairdryer]

We are just a typical second tier team who only won

the semi final with luck,having saying this Craig Gordon 

is the reason we are unbeaten

Agree Lees been the best and he’s not even been particularly noteworthy. Popescu has t shown he’s good enough, the opposite of anything. Halkett I’ve got faith in.

It’s like we are lacking some pace,  some vision. Someone who can play a better standard of pass than Dunfermline. It’s an even battle In midfield yet we have better players. Need to do something to give us an edge. 

[Gulf Jambo]

Halliday has been way off the pace and barely played a forward pass

 

Irving needs to be in the middle for us to have some composure on the ball

 

Once we get our foot on the ball in the middle of the park we'll damage them

Go have a takeaway. Cheer yourself up.

 

Will do, waiting on that goal from craig ronaldo wighton first though.

First half thoughts. 
 

Popescu should’ve scored. 
How the **** did McManus not even get carded for that lunge on Smith. Red card for me. 
DAFC are rank.
