Y'know we can't be kidding ourselves here, that last night was pretty poor. Like almost every team we play, especially at home, dundee knew if you keep it tight and work hard you will do okay. Truth be told they actually looked pretty composed and had a good plan, whoever was calling their line done a great job, and never looked out of it.

We are predictable when faced with this type of defensive blocking, but in my opinion we have the players to beat it. Last night was screaming for Paddy, drag a few out and take them on was the way for me. Musonda as well has got good close control, that's what we needed, players going past men.

At times our football, the making space and ball retention was very good, but we really need to up the tempo and get players who will commit defenders. really disappointed as i felt we would really put on a show last night.

Well put fgj. the word we all seem to mention about our play is predictable! It’s all to easy for these teams to sit back and keep it tight, and wait for us to run out of ideas. which more often than not we seem to do! Last nite in a game were dundee sat deep and said come and break us down was tailor made for a paddy and is what musonda was supposed to be brought in for! Someone made a good point further down the page. if we don’t score early doors they simply just run out of ideas and most of the time the players and most certainly us fans know that we’re in for frustrating boring game!

When a team draws or loses a fan can't help but be negative, as a fan i will never walk away and say great game and a fantastic draw, we played well, unless it is EL/ Cl away.

The amount of talent and cost on display last night does not guarantee a win. BR and the team are looking to win every game, so am i.

Reality is We play in a pishy league against some dire teams who will not come out and play and not to mention the state of their pitches also the plastic ones.

If it's a great result for the other team to get a draw it has to be a bad result for us.

I am happy were we are, cup and league in the bag, semi to go, even with all the injuries/ loans/ rotations and not winning every game, we still manage to win a mickey mouse league/ cups.

WE can thrash them with possession every game but trying to play PL/ EL/ CL football in a SPL looks good when it works.

Sleave's need to be rolled up and the hard work needs to be put in, some of the shooting last was not the best of standards, am not sure their keeper made any great saves. Hail Hail.

The league is in the bag and one thing seems to affect teams all over the place, when they are in a dominant position in a league with league success assured teams seem to take their foot off the throttle and limp to the winning post instead of galloping over the line.
