The team is devoid of ideas. The recruitment looks poor and unless they start showing more enthusiasm then I fear for us
-
The team looks weak all over. Losing goals, creating nothing with lethargic and predictable play that becomes tedious. We also have no goal threat and with Motherwell in 10 days I fear for us. I think it’s possible now to say things aren’t working and following a terrible second half to last season the manager is now firmly up against it. He can still recover but I’m looking at a team that seems devoid or enthusiasm and motivation. This group should have been straight forward for saints but it’s become a nightmare and it’s put immense pressure on our manager to deliver points early . As I say I will back him still but i won’t be alone in thinking that it just doesn’t feel right as we really should look a lot better than this.

Embarrassing tonight. I’ve seen some duff teams but most of them had the decency to try

I normally roll my eyes at comments like this as hyperbole, but I’m honestly struggling to think of a worse performance than that ever and I’ve been supporting Saints since 1976 so I’ve seen some garbage in my time.
I can’t think of a performance that was more complete in its shiteness. No quality, no spark, no creativity, no effort, no desire, no respect for the paying public and perhaps most importantly of all, no hope.
Nailed it

I struggle to see what the plan is here. Slow lethargic uninterested players going through the motions in a competitive match . We have been beaten by Arbroath and Airdrie and in both games we have shown nothing at all. Following a dreadful second half to last season I’d have imagined our manager would want a fast start full of positivity that would get people on side. I see a team bereft of quality and general hunger at present. It really is awful and ok it might essentially be pre season but it’s pre season for all and it’s a cup we have fond memories of. The first few league games now are of increased significance as with a relatively favourable opening few games we will need to pick up points or else I see a manager under major pressure . If someone can tell me what he is doing please let me know. I have to say I’m not having that tonight

Is Lyness now the forgotten man. I found his performance against Celtic to be quite inspiring jist before Xmas and although he was a little suspect at Motherwell’s opener in the 4-2 humping on april 2 I feel he is being overlooked here .

I agree, but only if he gets game time.
In the team we saw on Saturday - that shouldn’t be a problem and indeed why he wasn’t playing is a total myth. We can only win two competitions now were on the brink already

Regardless of future fees, we must be getting more for our biggest young assets in terms of actual cash.
£125k and the rest on the never-never is simply ridiculous.
Yes remember Burton o Brien and David McNamee leaving to Blackburn for 600k plus add ins which we saw none of. This add ins is no use at times we need a decent deal up front and if your telling me we nurture top talent to sell it for absolutely nothing then What is the point . It’s beyond a joke

Was looking forward to seeing Dylan further develop on the pitch with us this season. His potential is massive and £125k seems a ridiculous price considering the hype surrounding him.
When the Celtic manager is quoted saying that they’ve put a bid in for him but he has no interest in him at the moment as he’ll go straight into the development team, it all seems like it doesn’t stack up.
Who knows what’s really going on but I’m sure the club will play hardball with clubs wanting him. Surely the ball is in our court at the moment.Your sure this board will play hardball…

Yip but I would be giving him a decent signing on fee to get it over the line. Hopefully Baccus has a bit of creativity about him because if you take Kiltie out that team yesterday we have none.
The team is blunt. Need to find fitness and hope it improves. I have to say if we sell for buttons again it will leave a really bad taste. Celtic must be laughing at this . Toss the saints a tenner and we will take their most sellable asset . Sorry let’s play the lad and see if he’s got it. I’m sure the development fee won’t be much less in a years time. Who knows maybe he will be subject to bigger interest in winter window.

Yeah the champions of Scotland are tossing us their loose change and taking our hottest prospect. Top deal and wasn’t the claim by Jim Gillespie in April 21 these days are over. What a joke

Looks like we've accepted their offer , whatever it is , but that might not be a bad move. I'm not sure if he would want to go there and someone else will surely put in a better offer , and with add-ons we'll make much more from him that way than we would by letting his contract expire and us getting a development fee with no add-ons ! One way or other , he's not going to play much for the first team !
Dearie me . Bring talent thro and sell for buttons. Pointless . This better be bullshit as like others I’d play him and lose him for a development fee before selling for 100k. It’s like Celtic tossing loose change at us

Tremendous- couldn’t he play in our first team because it looks pretty average to me. Also isn’t it pointless unearthing and nurturing talent only to have it stolen for 100k . It’s like Celtic offering us the change in their pocket. Gone are the days when we sell for 100k was the quote from the board. I’d rather play the lad and lose him next season getting a simelar development fee than sell him up the road . I refuse to believe we are actually doing this
-
125k for Dylan Reid what an absolute insult . But seems our board might accept. Dearie dearie me

Decent fitness exercise and a run out for all the young boys in the squad. Exactly what was required although no doubt some of the usual suspects will be looking out the pampers after what was an open training session.

Still your playing a team that’s behind in pre season and your at home and they took the game two days ago. Needs to be better does it not. Get it’s about fitness but I like to play to win and for a bit of pride for the Scottish league

Quite surprised to be losing this. Is the lowest league in England better than our premier teams

Motherwell's new kit's been released already. It's a throwback to their mid 80's Ajax stlyle one. They've sold 800% more in 1st three days sales than last year. Fans applauding them having it on sale in time for the holidays. Will we ever do the same
I think that for clubs like ours where income is crucial they should surely have these kits out for school holidays. My three boys keep asking but as usual we have not date confirmed
-
The fans made it pretty clear they are unhappy with the current two stands being given to the old firm. This was mentioned to our chairman last September so if ur telling me that he’s unable to make a decision on this in time for next season then that’s absolutely rubbish. If this club is truly a family club committed to growing their support then let our families sit in their seats in every match .

See if they say it’s worth another player - let’s not bother. I’d rather we promote a youth team player to the squad and allow our families and fans of the future the chance to watch their team from their seat regardless of the opposition

The board started the season n shambolic fashion and only Jim’s six week purple patch has kept us above water. Now it’s worse than ever and I do not believe the players are showing enough. It’s terrible to watch and it’s also a big worry that should we lose in Perth we could be in huge bother. Let’s look at our awful home form again. We seldom win at home and should we lose at home to Hibs coupled with a St j win we could be 11th after Perth . The boards running of the club with their horrific customer service and inability to fix things for fans at several points suggests they ain’t listening. The two stands thing needs to go too. If it means one less player being signed so what they ones we have signed aren’t up to it anyhow. Promote a young player instead as this season is heading for disaster unless we wake up now
-
The season has been a poor one overall. After Jim looked to have a run going when he left it’s all fell away. It’s galling seeing Ross C come from relegation certainties to top six whilst we do our usual shit . Piss poor and I’m not sure we will ever crack it .
-
The way I see this is that the players are definitely going to need to get us out of this but I question the wisdom of telling some they’re not needed. How can you possibly even consider this when your chasing a top six spot. It’s absolutely terrible timing. The worry now is that we have players who have downed tools and I’m now genuinely fearing we end up in the playoffs. This has the whiff of Terry Butcher at Hibernian . Really surprised at how the manager has played this since he came in because it’s been very poor and what was a club sitting sixth and in tremendous form upon his arrival now looks totally rudderlesss

Got to hand it to you, if there's a negative to be found you will post about it.
How many have we played, won, drawn and lost, that would give the bigger picture.
Haha negative. Your one to talk. By the way I’ve really enjoyed some of the away games and actually supporting / being there . But three home wins isn’t great and there’s no denying that. Needs to get better if we are to break into top half sometime .

Gogic was better than any midfielder we have currently and that’s a fact. The team tho lacks any creative spark and we will not score many that’s for sure
