You might be bored by possession football, but at least the current crop can pass a ball 

Sorry but anyone can pass a ball 5 yards under no pressure to a player who isn’t being marked or in a dangerous area.

That squad would have us about 6-10 points better off right now than the current one

He also missed Paul Hartley from the squad & probably a few others for effect ?

Jerel Ifil commonly failed to do that

You must not have been watching Bates and Montgomery last night

Just so you know, because it's easy to forget, here's the squad...

J Langfield

C Mulgrew

R Foster

G MacDonald

Z Diamond

A Considine

M Kerr

S MacLean

D Mackie

S Aluko

J Paterson

D Young

S Duff

J Ifil

D Grassi

 

Any 2nd thoughts?

 

It's terrifying being reminded of those dark days. Apart from Mulgrew and Aluko most of them belong in the lower leagues.

The football under Craig Brown wasn't too bad from what I can recall - he did sign McGinn and played him through the middle and did he not also have Bebo, and bring through Ryan Fraser. There were some flickers of light in the Brown era - I think most would acknowledge that his role was to bring back stability and lay the basis for the next manager to move things forward.

I just remember Brown for being boring.

And 8th.

Protect the point at all costs & break fast/counter was always Browns strategy

Vernon and Hartley signed in McGhee's second season. Along with Magennis too. That squad he has quoted is from McGhee's first I think - 2009/10. A squad of uninterested pricks... never hated a Dons team so much
