tup Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Without a doubt in my opinion. He should have been removed from the team two months ago. Seriously dodgy keeper. 7 Link to comment
paddy Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 I dont believe he solely cost us the title. However, we would have made a better league challenge if we had Ward for the full season. 2 Link to comment
BWG Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 January transfer window cost us the title 1 1 Link to comment
Tommy Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 No, he didn't.He was part of the problem. 1 1 Link to comment
tup Posted April 30, 2016 Author Share Posted April 30, 2016 No he was THE problem. The defence went all to fuck with him in goals. No coincidence. You see better goalies in the highland league. 3 Link to comment
Lencarl Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Was he injured or just dropped today? Link to comment
Ke1t Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 No one reason, but losing Ward contributed. A shitty transfer window contributed. Celtic having a massive squad, whereas any injury impacted us negatively, that contributed. Frankly, not having a captain who will roar a lethargic team into action contributed. You can't point at any one thing and go, "That's what did for us." It's never as black and white as that. 5 Link to comment
chaos_defrost Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 No. He cost us the Scottish Cup last year but he didn't cost us the league this year. 1 Link to comment
tup Posted April 30, 2016 Author Share Posted April 30, 2016 He cost us both. Jurgen Klopp is ultimately responsible for handing our destiny to such a goalkeeping buffoon. I said after we beat St Johnstone 4-3 that Brown should be dispensed with. Quite why McInnes stuck with him only he will know, his loyalty was not rewarded. 5 Link to comment
mitchs71175 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Brown prob did but we hardly have a decent back up to him,Collin looked awful the day and didn't look interested. Very lazy and if he plays next week it could be embarrassing for us Link to comment
fine-n-dandy Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Combination of collective weakness cost us the title.Bottle in crucial games that could have really turned the screw on a shite Celtic.Weak un ambitious January transfer window.Tactical weakness or failure to make changes in a good few games when it was clearly needed by management.Losing Ward & not having close to adequate replacement.Collective pishness from both Reynolds & Taylor. Caused in part no doubt by the above but also hidden/covered in part by Ward when he was here. Overall a pretty shite midfield.Inadequate captain & weaker as player since being made that.Tactical weakness again in the lack of ability to kill off numerous games where we were clearly on top & ended up dropping points.Not enough goals spread throughout the rest of the players, or at least the more creative/attacking players other than Rooney & Latterly Chuch.Weak squad other than say around 10, or 11 mostly strong first team players. A lot of things cost us & in seasons gone by some or even all would have been less frustrating had Celtic not been so shite & we weren't seriously supposed to be aiming to improve season on season.

fine-n-dandy Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Take even just a few of the above out & the title could have been very much in our hands. Wouldn't have taken much to have fixed or improved on a good few of these things either which is also VERY frustrating also. Link to comment
fine-n-dandy Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 A NO would have sufficed No it wouldn't because it was a combination of numerous things & not just one. If you had any clue about me really you would understand that your point is extremely foolish to make, even in attempted jest at the fact that I do like to write loads of shite. Even when the shite I write is true & frustratingly simple & & thus harder to accept. You still reading? Ha ha mug. There's another few mins nicked by me. Link to comment

tightbreeks Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 We should've spent big in January and just have gone for it. No, we are as tight as a gnats chuff. We better spend big in the summer because I think the victims will try and scrape by again. John Collins will be gone which is a a shame because he is a thoroughly detestable humanoid. Sevco seem to have a war chest 3 times bigger than ours, whoopee twang, we can outsmart those special needs in the summer. Link to comment
fine-n-dandy Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Fucking hell, you must really hate watching this Aberdeen team.Yeah. Hated watching the team I described but loved watching them the rest of the time.Nae to mention the team from last week that turned up after the team that blew the title chances again the week before v Hearts.That team was the worst of the season & one that most of the Aberdeen teams over the last decade would have routed they were that bad. The contrast in this team & many individual players is very dramatic. Hate drama me. Link to comment

tup Posted April 30, 2016 Author Share Posted April 30, 2016 If we had a better keeper since January we'd be top. Having no adequate replacement for Ward was ludicrous in hindsight. 1 Link to comment

stirlingshen Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Scott Brown has no natural instinct to play the position other than a reactive shot stopping ability. I have no doubt that we'd be going into this Celtic game as a title decider had Ward not been recalled 1 Link to comment
fine-n-dandy Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 ..... you speak some utter shite. McLean, McGinn, Hayes all walk into any other team in the league. Fucking Flood would walk into most. Ok I'll be more specific on the midfield point. Central midfield has been pretty pish over all. You know exactly why that point stands as you are one of the unfathomable see nae wrangers in that area. Was the rest also shite in your opinion? I only ask as it's strange you to only highlight one part & nae just make this perfectly justifiable comment in general at my posts. 2 Link to comment
stirlingshen Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 but I can't blame the man for being naturally limited, this ones on the management-they obviously knew the position was an issue and only addressed it with a short term loan Link to comment
Tord31 Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 Yes. McInnes biggest mistake as manager the january transfer window in general and Ward = Collin being the biggest part of that Link to comment
spamspamspam Posted April 30, 2016 Share Posted April 30, 2016 but I can't blame the man for being naturally limited, this ones on the management-they obviously knew the position was an issue and only addressed it with a short term loan McInnes addressed it by signing the best keeper we've had in over a decade. Aye it was only for a year loan but it was meant to be the full year. I blame Milne mainly. If he had any ambition for the club he'd have opened the wallet enough for 3 1st team players in January instead of us pissing about with ICT and Church on the final day. wouldnt have taken much, decent keeper, defender and striker. Could even have been a couple of loans of a good standard from the EPL. A wee bit of ambition from the board and some decent backing of the manager and we'd be ahead of Celtic and probably already champions. Its wouldve been a 500K gamble at most... Link to comment
