The harsh reality is that there are only 5 or 6 of the current squad worth keeping.

We'd hammer Dundee at six-a-side!

 

Just like '84.

We are playing 9 games in January with a threadbare squad. Not surprised we have guys like Jefte and Yilmaz(who is never fit at the best of times tbh) blowing out of their backsides.

 

We played 8 games in December. 17 games in 2 months.

 

We played 5 games in November and 6 in October.

I think Dessers is finished. 

We need to encourage him to move on as soon as possible.

 

That means near zero time on the pitch during the transfer window.

 

If we are stuck with him after the window slams shut then he will get on and contribute a few inexplicable goals.

Its the same with Matondo and Dowell. We need to move them on. 

 

Its ok saying they are happy to stay here and take money without playing, but if we were smart we could use that to encourage them to leave. There are ways. Who is going to want to pay them if they have done nothing here? Look at Kemar Roofe as an example. 

 

A footballer should always be looking to move, get a sign on fee and extend their guaranteed pay days.

Yes, the sad problem is that the current contract is the only truly guaranteed pay day.

Why, even admin admitted he's a troll. 

Said admin was joking.

There is no doubt that we have a team that can play good attacking football when the opposition "wants to play football". Be it in Europe or in Scotland. In the latter, however, only very few clubs do it, but that is where we have to do our homework.

 

Regardless of injuries (and they have been horrendous over the years) and ridiculous refereeing decisions and performances, we have not managed to break down these Scottish walls for the best part of a decade. And ultimately, this is the point where the blame must be placed on every single coach since Warburton. Dundee were holed up, our three strikers faced two defenders each, the second row with ONE nominal attacker is useless against two or three Dundee players, the two 6s passed to the centre-halfs and that's it.

 

We have seen it like this since Warburton. So the penny has to drop at some point ... the penny that should be the size of Fort Knox by now.

 

You have up to six attackers on the bench each week, some are subbed on a 1 for 1 basis, others go on after 75+ mins with little effect. Week in and week out. 

 

It is unacceptable management and must come to an end. We handed the Scum a free reign at every trophy since 2012, and some may blame Murray for the initial fall. But since our return, we were able to built teams that challenged them for titles, yet imploded mainly down to the above.
