  1. I could see the point of don’t panic if we just had a raft of injuries then a few bad results out of nowhere.

     

     

    This situation has however been predicted since the start of the season.

     

     

    Every team who is capable or decent will cause us major problems and results are hugely at risk.

     

    That will continue to be the case even with a full squad of players, it’s a structural, management coaching problem not a personnel problem.

     

     

    We said the first decent team would have joy, we were correct because we had identified the problem.

     

     

    In order to fix a problem you have to identify the cause.

     

     

    That’s the only reason I nailed my opinion that without full staff changes our problems will keep recurring.

  2. Can accept criticism of Duffy for 2nd goal

     

    Although, did it not come off the Aberdeen players knee and Hand to enter the net ?

     

     

    What about Ntcham part in 1st goal ?

     

    Horrendously poor pass straight to an Aberdeen player, and gives away penalty trying to retrieve situation

     

     

    Or

     

    3rd goal – y s we gave away 3

     

    McGregor, who was given Scott Browns responsibility and position today, and other players Aberdeen walzted past pre reaching McGregor trip

     

     

    Pish poor team structure, is not working as a team

     

     

    Management & Coaching responsibility to get us set up correctly

     

    They are failing – like it or Not

     

    Evidence was there last season as well

  3. TOMMY JOAD

     

    I would be delighted to eat humble pie in May, or even November, but just can’t see it. Christie will occasionally get something right, but too often exhibits no finesse, under-hitting or over hitting crosses and corners, and with very poor percentage free kicks.

     

     

    Much more significant is that, before last Saturday, the zombie club had completely outplayed us three games in succession, and Neil Lennon did absolutely NOTHING to counteract their completely predictable 4-3-3 formation. If one assumes the season will be completed, and absent meeting them in cups, we have to play the zombies three more times. There is not one iota of evidence that we have the tactical and coaching awareness to do it in the future. As for injuries, Sevco are missing Katic, the Croatian center half. It has made zero difference to their formation or results, because they slot in somebody else to do the same job. We change our back four and instantly become even more shambolic.

  4. We played 30 league games last season – won 26, lost 2 and drew 2.

     

     

    We’ve played 11 this season, won 8, drew 2 and lost 1.

     

     

    Let that sink in for a second.

     

     

    Now factor in late wins against Utd and Saints.

     

     

    No factor in a CL exit and two very below par Europa qualifying games against minnow clubs.

     

     

    We’ve been shockingly bad this season and I despair at our lack of urgency in making changes to turn this around.

  5. As much as I am trying to find positives. There is none.

     

     

    Let’s just be having it Lenny’s time has come and gone.

     

     

    1 striker again upf

  6. lets all do the huddle on

    If memory serves me well, we used to think it a terrible trait of the Huns that they felt they had a right to win every game. I feel quite a few of our supporters have fallen prey to that superiority complex.

     

    —-

     

     

    i genuinelly wish folk would stop coming out with this utter shite

     

     

    no one thinks we have a right to win every

     

     

    theres nothing about giving your opinion on how pish we have been that translates into thinking we are entitled to win every game

     

     

    its just a way of trying to stifle free speech

     

     

    so unless P67 has changed his name to kim jung paul then free speech will be allowed on here

     

     

    honestly, give it up

  7. I was starting to think along the lines that Lennon should maybe go then people started to throw the names of WGS, MON and Mick McCarthy out there.

     

     

    Maybe we’re better the devil you know?

  8. LETS ALL DO THE HUDDLE on 25TH OCTOBER 2020 4:51 PM

     

     

    True. I don’t think we have a right to win every game. But I think we have the right to expect 11 players busting a gut with the same coming from the coaching staff.

     

     

    Not sure we’re seeing that.

  9. When we’ve a a squad, tens if not hundreds of times more expensive than our opponents, then yes, I admit, I take a victory as a given.

  10. Upfront feck off Lenny.

     

     

    Moi pish.

     

     

    Christie pish

     

     

    Frimpong couldn’t go by someone on crutches, we have coached a good player backwards.

     

     

    Duffy just clear your lines but probably getting coached to play football at all times. Wrong clear your feckin lines.

     

     

    Lenny oh Lenny please do yer self a favour and resign.

     

     

    Right bring on the onslaught.

     

     

    D :)

    I cannot agree with the comments about “acting like huns” when posting negative/constructive comments on here. Or with the “sense of entitlement” stuff either. The bottom line is that we should be so far ahead of the huns they would be an insignificance. However our board in welcoming them back with open arms and downsizing have allowed the situation we are facing to happen. We have every right to question why we are playing catch up to a team formed in 2012 and with resources far less than us?

    exactly

     

     

    thats what we all mean as well

     

     

    but some like to translate that as us thinking we have a divine right to win games, which is just made up pish by soundbite posters

    Gents I take a degree of comfort in your acknowledgement – but we remain in a pickle

    PS the Rioja has gone 12 year old Malt is now my only saviour !!

  14. FAIRHILL BHOY

     

    I actually think he is a good player, who typically tries very hard. What I can’t figure out is why he thinks he is Beckham at free kicks or corners and clearly does not have the finesse. What is alarming is, that apart from Griffiths, we don’t have anyone that strikes a dead ball with consistent accuracy.

  15. what did neil do to deserve the celtic job imo was good yes man for peter and was one of the bhoys thats it.

  16. INIQUITOUSIV-canny argue with that though it’s obvious we have no one else apart from grif who can take a set piece.which has been an ongoing problem for a few years now.

    I did not ignore their progress – I have been telling people on here to look at the CEO of Nokia for over a year

     

    Google it – the CEO of Nokia is PL

     

    Nokia ignored Apple – how did that tun out !!!

  18. Let’s all- totally agree, I don’t know anyone who expects to win every game, every trophy.

  19. Maybe the reason Christie takes all the corners etc., is because we score from them in training ,Oh 🤔 maybe all our defenders are rubbish

  20. EDDIE HOWE. NOW. PLEASE!

     

     

    He is available. He is a training ground fanatic. He is a savvy coach and tactician. He would organise and reinvigorate the team and the coaching.

     

     

    We can afford him.

    Henrik Larsson has a better goal scoring record than French Eddy – should we bring him back

     

     

    My point is, what NL has achieved does not mean he will achieve again

     

     

    Time for change

    Would Eddie Howe want to come to us?

     

     

    Any manger worth his salt would want full control, Lawwell/Desmond have full control….

  24. FAIRHILL BHOY

     

    When you have seen Tully, Charlie Gallagher, Lubo and Naka take corners, delightfully curving in to the danger area at the right height, and just out of the keeper’s reach, I just wince when Christie, or McGregor hit the first defender, put it in the keeper’s hands, or more typically, sky it far too high or blooter it out the opposite side of the park. Just think how bad Forrest must be – we never let him take them, which is very strange for a winger.

  25. Ernie – thank you fir that link to the Guardian tribute. I was lucky enough to know Kevin for over twenty years, a lovely, intelligent and kind man. Many great memories of nights oot, particularly post match in the Babbity.

     

     

    RIP Kevin – enjoy the press box in Paradise.

  26. If we are changing, which we should but i doubt, the manager should have full control of the football department and for this plc that is a no no so far, also he should have a contract of 4 years with the remit to bring in his own men to coaching tactics sports science conditioning to the first and development squad, that might make the plc boak but it will focus minds on who and how they recruit.

  27. Two stark choices right now.

     

     

    Get a new man in. Hope it brings the spark we need.

     

     

    Or

     

     

    Circle the wagons, get the siege mentality going, make peace with the players in the cream puff (if they are) and get back to the basics of good team shape in various situations, round holes, round pegs.

     

     

    Offski
