I just wonder if we're putting too much faith in his record? Like I said elsewhere, he has a record of doing very well initially, then fading away and being sacked. He's not even had a full season, yet we're adamant he's the answer? I can't help feel we're jumping the gun.
I would totally accept brutal football if we're winning; we're at that stage. I still believe there is an option that gets us 'decent' -- doesn't have to be Guardiola stuff --- football and gets us results.

Exactly. I think Murty has made a huge mistake by sticking with 1 up front. Both players could thrive alongside each other. I hate it when there's a consensus that we "lost the midfield battle" so we just need to "flood the midfield" to counter Celtic/Hibs/Kilmarnock. It's nonsense, we're not Ross County for crying out loud we shouldn't be afraid to have two strikers right on top of the opposition centre backs like others have done to us.
I like two up front, but our support structure doesn't facilitate this. We're not positioned correctly, players aren't covering and don't press cohesively etc.
I think we can get the same effect if we play a 4-3-3, but again, the same problems (manager is not good enough) mean we'll not utilise it properly.
At the moment he needs to just play what he knows.

Clarke is a flash in the pan. He is also a celtic fan. I do not want a celtic fan in charge as we try to stop ten in a row.
His track record suggests he makes very good starts, then fades away; he did the same at West Brom and Reading, I think?

Hopefully we see some sort of movement.
We could all do with a pick-up.
2nd looks too much now.

I'm perfectly calm mate honestly at 2-0 down in the first half I knew the game was gone, with this team, for me it was only a matter of how many they would get. I didn't expect 2 pens 5 yellows and a red during that as we were no where near them or the game to merit what looks on paper like a tousey game. It wasn't it was a walk over from start to finish for them.
I've seen some poor Rangers teams in my time but they all had more than this team and yeah we were close to them for periods in the game at Ibrox but that was it they also had a player sent off and still won the game. This Rangers team hasn't got the head to win against them. Put aside the tactics of a youth coach for a second the players need to know how to win games like this and they simply don't have it they are weak!
I agree with that.
It was lost at 2-0 for me too.
Brutal.

No we're not mate. The whole spine of that team needs ripped out Predator style and pronto too!
Oh yes we are!
Come back to me when you've cooled down and had time to reflect.
I'm not saying we're good -- far from it! -- merely that this team is better than what they've shown today; the last Old Firm game was a better performance. Is it ultimately good enough? No.

We’re atrocious mate.
No doubt about it.

No we're really not @Rousseau
Yes, we are.
It's easy to get caught up in that performance -- the worst I've seen -- but we were better in the last game against them; we still lost, and I don't see Murty improving us any more.
We need better players, and a proper manager.

A wee bit of fight, and hunger is the bare minimum.
That was tactically inept too.
That was the worst performance against them.

That wasn't even a competition. Brutal.
We're better than that, though. In the last game we were much better.

To really make matters worse, Andy Walker just can’t contain his glee. He shouldn’t have the billing he has and he shouldn’t be anywhere near old firm games.
I've got it on mute. I can't take it.

I can't help watch it. I don't know why?

Morelos still can't score.
He does the right thing in taking a touch, then hits in straight to Gordon who's on his arse!
What is it with these games...

McCrorie off red card. Boy is not as good as I and others thought. Penalty to them
3-0. Dembele scores.
Ach... he's only 19, he's had no protection today, and he's probably better in midfield.
He shouldn't be deemed a superstar after one good game, and he shouldn't be deemed a dud after one bad game.

Yeah, that'll do...
Schalke - Dortmund or Man Utd - West Brom?

That McGregor smiling and laughing as he walks off and on the pitch...
You wouldn't get tired of punching that.

Yes, these players are better than this -- I have to believe that...

4-2-3-1 with Windass on.
At least he has the bollocks to change it when it's clearly not working.
I'm not convinced it'll work, though.

Same old same old, tims reading us like a large print book. Manager has learned nothing from our defeat at their hands.
Actually, we had a better set-up then!

The defence is not dealing with (a) balls on the ground and the movement, nor (b) are they dealing with the physical battle.
Add to that the midfield letting them pass through them, then just jogging back!
Too easy. It's not zonal or Man-marking.

What a joke.

We've not got an out-ball; Murphy, Morelos and Candeias are not making themselves available.

Morelos again

Morelos is in bad form, but we can still use him better.
We're critical of one up front, but that's how Killie play; it's not doing Boyd -- and man who is almost allergic to hard work -- any harm at all.
