Gmcjambo Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 2 minutes ago, Captain Holt said: This may be controversial because of todays result but still think we have a really strong squad that should be storming away at 3rd just dont think we have used it effectively whatsoever. That was understandable during the european run where we were about one injury away from ross stewart at centre back but now with most of the players back (that we were expecting to build around this year not buying anyone saying beni as we knew how long he could of been out for same goes with halkett but more to do with injury history) yet strange tactical decisions are happening every game and the approach to games is woeful. Hope I'm proved wrong but would look to empty Neilson before moral gets any lower in the squad and see how Naismith does till end of year. Personally, don’t think that’s controversial. We do have a very strong squad and easily the best outside of the big 2. Players have lost faith in what’s being asked of them imo, loss of confidence not playing in their preferred roles, in some cases not even their prefered half of the pitch! This then impacts confidence and it goes through the team. As others have said, they simply look dejected. It’s been a slow creep for a few months now, but they look like they have simply had enough.

Robbo-Jambo Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Aberdeen had 37 per cent possession and 22 shots at goal. How is that even possible? We had no shots on target in 90 mins. Pathetic and embarrassing. This clown needs to go and take his two stoogies with him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramrod Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 No way he'll be getting sacked when we are 4 points clear in 3rd as it stands, but another abject performance away from home has got to be concerning. If we blow 3rd he should be away but hopefully we won't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerry Mallon is the only Board member with any football knowledge given his previous role with NI FA. We've got FoH subs and JA writing a considerable cheque every year. Doesn't seem to be giving is much of an advantage over Hibs and Aberdeen. If we manage to scrape 3rd we're going to be 40+ points behind Rangers.

Darkwhisky7 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 6 minutes ago, DS98 said: So so uninspiring. Imaging being the Aberdeen players today. Pumped up, out for revenge and a chance to cut the gap on 3rd. And then coming out to face this pathetic rabble. They must have pissed themselves laughing how easy it was. 5 slow defenders, wingbacks who can’t attack, midfielders who can’t run, little winger with the heart of a mouse playing in midfield, 20 goal a season striker playing 40 yards away from goal. A very good summing up of today, I thought Motherwell was bad, this was worse, dozens of supporters leaving as soon as the 3rd went in, no wonder, they knew it wouldn’t get any better. Something drastic needs to happen, it’s obvious the players aren’t playing for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bongo 1874 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 (edited) I stuck up for Neilson last week when he had about 8 player's or more out,this week there is simply no excuses,just want to use an example people said St Mirren away under Stendel was bad,it's a shame the exact same poster's will go into hiding, and will be saying nothing about today. Player's and manager need to ask themselves ,am i good enough and brave enough too play for this club. If the answer is no then there's the ****ing door. Stubborn 3 at the back call it a 5 when the wingbacks tuck in. That's 9 goals conceded in 3 ****ing games holy god!!!! I've seen better amateur football feck me.

He is the one player that will run for the 90' and give his all, the rest are a bunch of tippy tappies with nice hairstyles... sometimes. Football is not about five yard passes across the back four it is about hard work and endeavour and we fall badly short on hard work and endeavour . The movement of players off the ball is just so poor it is not a surprise we are struggling . A lot is said about our manager being the root cause of our problems. I am not going to comment other than to say he has done a decent job while at Hearts I don't think anybody could say otherwise. It is always easy to point the finger and say how poor a job someone is doing but if RN is that bad who is his replacement because decent managers do not grow on trees. Hes been schooled by Kettlewell and Robson recently, two trainee managers ffs, any ***** can do well in this league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holtie Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Just don’t understand people continuing to support Neilson.

It’s been said so often he lacks tactical nous and can’t believe he started today with 3 at the back, goes two down , the changes to a back four - we should never have started with a back three in the first place!! How often do we need to be over run in midfield for the penny to drop? Neilson can obviously not take this team any further . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
