We have terrible record. 1 win in 10 years or something like that. 2 wins in a row there now! 😃 And also 2 wins since Oppenheimer were a lad! 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's a bit of an underappreciated figure, he breaks up play excellently but actually has the ability on the ball to pick a pass. Kind of like a blend of Devlin/Beni. I hope Haring is here for a few more years tbh, he's proven how difficult he is to replace, like whenever we think he's done he pops back up. One of my favourite players.

Caught about 2 minutes of her today before the game, at it again. It was just bizarre. I can understand a snap judgement "oh that looks offside" sees replay.. "no well on. Good goal" But no she (and Preston a little) made it sound like there was a big check for offside and a handball. The pictures simply didn't reflect what they were saying.

For me - there is systemic bias in the make up of the shows. There is a deadly seriousness when they report on Celtic or Rangers and there’s a jovial stupidity when they report on any other team in the league.

I’ve seen much worse first halfs away from home, but we were cruising for a lot of it. Upped the tempo second half and we ended up winning fairly comfortably I wasn’t aiming my comment at just us, I just generally though the first half for both teams was rubbish - maybe it’s first game of the season and neither was in the zone - 2nd half was better, possibly that is due to the fact we scored two (won).

If you are saying it was a poor game first half I’d probably agree. Not that we ourselves were poor and we certainly weren’t dire, mostly that the home team didn’t have much ambition and we’re playing against a deep midfield 4 and a back 5 when we had the ball. if your playing a team who fall into a rigid wall like that when they lose the ball or the opponent crosses half way, you MUST play at tempo. First half we didn’t. Second half we did, particularly when we brought the pace on. Was it a great game ? No not really Were we great ? For the last quarter I thought we were pretty good. Were we ‘dire’ at any stage ? No I didn’t think we were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 StJ may get relegated, but they were no pushover. They worked hard and closed us down. There will be a lot of games like that this season. The creativity Lowry brought was key to the win. We'll need that to beat stodgy teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be a lot of games like that this season. The creativity Lowry brought was key to the win. We'll need that to beat stodgy teams. Absolutely, it took us 70 minutes and a lucky break of the ball to score. Breaking them down was looking beyond us, and I think teams will struggle to break them down if they approach every game in the same manner. On the flip side, they offered zero attacking threat for 90 minutes. Their entire strategy seemed to be set pieces and nothing else. I don't think you can go into games with no game plan on how to score from open play. I think they'll prove to be a very tough nut to crack for Aberdeen and Hibs. Thankfully, thats one game against them done. Annoyingly, we have to play them again up there in Feb. Which probably means 3 games, 2 away 1 at home which is a frustrating outcome.
