Though I think today, on reflection, showed that it’s as much the players as the management team that are at fault. Neilson gave his ‘Robbie out’ guys their way today, four at the back, McKay dropped, Shankland up front and it was even worse than it’s been. We have either done a really dreadful job on recruitment or we have most of available squad out of form and shot of confidence. Probably a mix of all of those but three or four today certainly not worth their place in starting line up but there’s no alternatives. Even with todays poor performance a competent keeper would have seen us return with three points. Can’t get away from worst keeping performance we have seen for a long, long time.

Its really frustrating because he's finished 3rd with us multiple times which successive managers have failed to do. Its no easy task, and its not take for granted where we are, but we're not even doing the basics right. We have CB's that don't defend well, wingers that can't beat a man and midfielders that can barely pass a ball. It begs questions about what is actually being worked on in training. We have 60% possession most weeks, yet can't seem to do anything with it. Why? Its pathetic. Tactics are out of step with the ability of the team IMO and we need to go back to basics and outwork opponents.

Doesn’t have to be a tactical genius, just needs to get these players motivated to play for him. To the end of the season, I don’t even see it as a risk, because in my mind we’ve already lost third with Robbie Just see what Aberdeen have done in the last few months !

Even with todays poor performance a competent keeper would have seen us return with three points. Can’t get away from worst keeping performance we have seen for a long, long time. Neilson has the final say on recruitment so we keep getting told. If that’s an issue, he is culpable. He needed to change 2 things in tandem and not just cos the fans demanded it but because his job is hanging by a thread. 1 was change the system which was a no brainer and required only the use of a rubber and a pencil. The 2nd thing to change, and he had 2 weeks to work on it, was the motivation and attitude of the players, the focus of the tactics and the tempo we play at. He fixed none of that. Now maybe it’s just players not listening or not respecting or not understanding or not agreeing. maybe it’s players just not suited to what Neilson is imposing strategy wise. Maybe the players just aren’t good enough, but whatever angle you take it from, it’s all traceable back to him IMO and he has to go and go now whilst we still have a chance of getting 3rd over the line. A caretaker can maybe stick an Elastoplast on the bleeding open wound and get it over the line. I seriously doubt that Neilson can or will. And even you can’t surely pretend that the sole reason we got beat was 2 goalkeeping errors Edited April 1, 2023 by JimmyCant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if he does well between now and the end of the season then perhaps explore the possibility of making it permanent. Have my doubts about him though.

OTT Posted April 1, 2023 Share Posted April 1, 2023 I'm sick of having to write off away games.

So if it was down to you there would never be any new managers, just the constant merry go round of Steve Bruce, Sam Allardyce, Roy Hodgson, Neil Warnock, etc? We’ve tried McPhee. Like Cathro, he’s not a man manager. You seem to be basing SN’s managerial credentials on how he struggled as a player when he was basically finished due to injury. Not really relevant.
