I suspect we'll draw in Dundee, but surely a defeat there... heading into a hellish sequence of ties... will set us up for an end of year horror show. And not the good kind of horror show, where Elvira's jiggling her titties as she tries to escape cheeky cartoon monsters that are trying to shag her. Link to comment

Cheers for the suggestion though. Leicester City won the Premier League with relatively low possession stats in most games. Their tactics hitting teams on the counter attack won most games. I don't have possession stats from the Fergie era but do recall that we had a brilliant counter attacking style in many games, using Weir and Strachan on the flanks. In other words it's not about how much possession a team has it is was they do with the possession when they have it. Link to comment

We have scored less than the opposition in most matches glass has played So, yes we have been outplayed The sport is about scoring more goals than the opposition Thats it Yes it’s about scoring more than the opposition but just because they won doesn’t mean we were out played. Celtic never even outplayed us last weekend. When Iv watched Celtic outplay us we’ve lost 7-0 and the goalie still had a few dames to make or it would of been 10. That’s being outplayed. In the losses, the games have been very even and it’s the defensive fuck ups that are making us loose by the odd goal. Link to comment

But it reads like it's starting to dawn on him that we're in the shit. Football clubs, with good managers, players and a good setups who are going through a simple sticky patch don't make noises like that. It's not just a sticky patch, and Dave has let slip that he's starting to realise it. Link to comment

Aye Rob using the classic vague buzz word that is "transition". Signing off with "Keep the (blind) faith" Also says that "Every club goes through a transition at some point and this happens to be our moment" but obviously fails to mention that 99.9% of the time it ends with the manager being punted.

You really need to grasp this mate You play football to score goals If you score less than the opposition, you have been outplayed Simple If you play someone at draughts and take 30 seconds between shots, your opposition takes 4 seconds between shots and ends up removing all of your pieces from the board Who outplayed who? 1 Link to comment
pocrawred Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Allegedly our first team played Arbroath in a closed door game. Got beat 3 1!! As I say cant see anything online but thats the result!! Surely no... Link to comment

Surely the most important thing is if we managed to have lots of possession passing the ball about in the middle of the park. Does anyone know if we managed to do this? Link to comment

Amanda Stavely just said about the takeover at Newcastle that investment is required but also it needs time and patience in their pursuit of being successful. Its the same with us, the fans need time and patience to allow the transition to bear fruit. If you end up chopping and changing managers after only 8 games of a season, we’ll never be successful Link to comment

She certainly did not imply that their performances and results would fall off a cliff under the guidance of an inexperienced manager who frivolously wasted their new found wealth on sub standard players. At least I don't think she implied that, but I guess "opinions" and all that so you may have picked her up differently from me. 1 Link to comment

If Glass can’t turn it around, then he’ll get sacked. 8 games is pitiful lack of patience or support for the team Link to comment
