First team captain

First team captain (9/14)

  1. As another older supporter, not that enamoured with home strip. No problem with away strip. However, l am sure the younger ones will be happy with it. As long as we’re winning, don’t care what we wear 🤪
  2. Fantastic result. Strange game though. Never felt comfortable until we scored the third. Weather did not help, especially in first half, but we kept giving the ball away, especially at throw ins. Clinical up front though and gave Killie few opportunities. We have played better and got nothing. Great to break the McInnes hoodooo. Chance for top 6
  3. Woeful today against a poor fake saints. Couldn’t pass, gave the ball away, created nothing, threw the game away. One win in six and a hard run coming up. players need to look at themselves today. It is so close below third and we have thrown away games against Dundee, Motherwell, United and now the Fake Saints. Need to be smarter and better at home against teams around us who sit back
  4. Three clean sheets all season. Hemming has been brought in to address this, though defence needs to get act together. Drop Gogic? Hemming needs to get up to speed pronto and we need to start scoring more goals. Maybe Hemings distribution will be better. Also cannot afford two bogey teams in this league- Killie are enough. Big performance, 2-1 Saints
  5. Not going to read anything into today’s result. Hemming has played hardly any football and we were better than previous two games. We are good enough to finish top six, but could easily end up in play off as we are as inconsistent as the bulk of other teams in this league. More concerned as to how we performed last Sunday and Thursday. Will be interest To see how the squad looks at end of January for run in. A win next Saturday against United would do us the world of good.
  6. Not totally surprised after Sunday. Mental block though against Killie and McInnes. Hopefully some intelligent departures and arrivals this month. Top Six is there for the taking as most teams are pretty poor in this league. Look at Celtic today shipping 3 at Ibrox. Any one can beat anyone on the day 🫣🤪
  7. Poor game between two poor teams on the day. Typical St Mirren hangover after string of good results. Probably didn’t deserve to lose, but created virtually nothing. A lot of poor decision making. For all beating Rangers is great, giving 3 points to Dundee was an expensive error. Would be good to get something at Kilmarnock ahead of Celtic then Dundee United. Otherwise we could be back in the mire.
  8. Just read that OHara pulled his thigh when he took the penalty. Haven’t seen it yet, but does that explain how poor it was? looks like a potential injury crisis after yesterday. In terms of the game, anything is better than last week’s game. Wins a bonus
  9. Fantastic result. Should have buried them in first half. Second half we lost just about every 50:50, but still created enough to finish them off. We sat too deep, perhaps forced back a bit by Dundee. Strain got the run around at the back but was immense coming forward. More pluses and minuses and we cannot complain about full points from first two games. Optimistic we will be very competitive this season and threaten a top six place again
  10. End of season, nothing to play for to fare today. Cannot read too much into what we saw. Thought Taylor was really good first half, despite other posts thoughts. O Hara was very tidy. Urminsky was very disappointing. Good to see Tait back , looked up for it. Rangers went through the motions and had three proper shots all day, unfortunately our man is not up to the standards of Carson and needs to improve to be a realistic back up. Overall a fantastic season though and we need to appreciate that as we may wait a long time to see a repeat, depending on who we lose and who we bring in next season. Hopefully Main will be staying and O Hara is not sold.
  11. Great result. Given Hearts recent run l felt we had a good chance of a result, especially after last week’s performance, but a win was more than could be hoped for. Could not ask for more going into final two games before split
  12. Excellent first ten minutes then we huffed and puffed against a really poor team for rest of the game, albeit creating enough opportunities to bury them. Gallagher and Flynn were excellent. Main put in a shift. Could not believe BBC thinking Watt was man of match. We need to be more clinical up front. All said and done pleased that we put in a shift and won given the injuries we have. Top 6 still up for grabs, but it will be tough
  13. Agree with many comments. Felt like two points dropped though over the piece a draw was probably correct. Carson made at least four excellent saves, Particularly towards the end, but our endeavour throughout and the chances created when we broke forward made for a very entertaining game. Suspect the penalty was very borderline and as for the refereeing l thought it was appalling and failed to protect our players from a series of dangerous collisions. Carson and Erhahon were excellent, but the whole team put in a great performance. colleagues at work had said how poor Rangers are- they are not wrong. For all their possession they are insipid and lack the nous to break down a resolute defence and their own defence looks very shaky. for all our away woes and only two points out of nine this week, 21 points at this stage of the season is not to be sniffed at.
  14. Strange game overall. St Johnstone much more comfortable on the ball most of the night but created nothing. Couldn’t understand why it took so long to give the penalty. Two cracking goals from us, but overall we wasted the ball a lot with slack passes. Fakes offered nothing in second half yet grabbed an equaliser. There is room from improvement but did not see us sitting with 20 points at this point in season. Are we getting too greedy?
  15. Unfortunately the games in hand are Celtic and Hearts 🤔
