  1. Defensive signings have been good but attacking we have been found out big time. The strikers Jim has signed haven’t delivered
  2. We never seem to do well in deals for our best players. Out with McGrath we have lost talent like McGinn, McLean, Mallon, McGennis and Morgan all for less than a million quid collectively. Now thankfully the board at the time inserted a sell on for John M but the rest have left for really poor fees. We obviously didn’t get told how much hibs paid for Kyle but it won’t have been much. It frustrates me when I see other clubs getting really good money for their best top talent
  3. Brophy absolutely deserves time and support perhaps Dennis is a decent back up but he’s hardly had any time
  4. That’s fair enough I hope we get a deal that allows us to add quality and avoid a problem as we need to avoid a relegation battle
  5. Well how about the board front up and speak to the fans at an AGM?
  6. What I’m saying is that for not a lot of money we were preparing to sell our best player at the last minute . Do you trust that this window will deliver the quality required to stay clear of a relegation battle? I’m not convinced.
  7. The club at boardroom level is a mess the silence is incredible. AGM ? Face the fans ? What’s going on. Whilst this is happening let’s not kid ourselves that it won’t impact on the park too. Remember this was a board that was looking to punt McGrath for peanuts on the last day in August window
  8. Jim and the board simply must have a plan to find better forward options. We have only won 5 home games in 18 months and that is not good enough. Forget too six that’s a joke now given how we’ve fell away.The fact is that we haven’t won in 12 and whilst Celtic home was a tremendous effort it is clear we need goals and sadly the signings Jim has made in forward areas have not been successful. Brophy is the only guy who has any quality. The others need to go as Jim doesn’t fancy them clearly seeing as their game time has been restricted
  9. This Kennedy lad is a myth. Ryan Flynn had him in his back pocket during his last season at st Johnstone I’m sorry but I fail to see the attraction. Jim should play through McGrath not over his head .
  10. Terrible deal all round . Hope he goes south and if he has any ambition he will. They are playing tonless than 10 thousand most weeks and to progress he needs to test himself down south
  11. So it’s last season wages - we finished 7th and I think since then we have increased our budget as you’d expect . I’d also struggle to see how Livingston were paying 2500 to a defender - and if power was on 1500 at Kilmarnock is he playing for 750 at us? In short I don’t trust this information
  12. How do you know? That’s not what I heard. In fact I’m told we’re paying decent money to some. McGrath signed on a lesser wage as he was coming from a league that is not a top European league and he was at that point untested in Scottish football
  13. I think it’s clear we are v much in the relegation battle once again. Poor squad balance has left us floundering in the jan window with our best player probably leaving. Gogic is a decent player but not what we need not that I think Ethan offers much. Power whilst not brilliant is our best defensive midfielder . Let’s be honest we can’t score goals often enough and that must be our aim to find someone even on loan to fire us to safety and avoid the traditional scrap
  14. Was huge ask today following the effort expended in Wednesday night. We have a point from two games when usually we get nothing. I was proud of the team on Wednesday night and today it was always a hard shift. That said I’d be tempted to see if anyone would pay cash for Ethan aa I’m unsure of what he actually does. Kiltie looks scared and our strikers aren’t getting goals albeit they spend all their time chasing lost causes . Jim pulled a result out of nowhere on Wednesday and deserves time to fix the problem of scoring goals. I hope we can find someone to come in and maybe wheel and deal A little . We don’t look like a team that’s going to be relegated but I’m worried about our goals for column.
  15. So proud of the team last night. Felt like a win ! Well done Jim and the lads outstanding effort and the defending was brilliant.
  16. I was thinking we might fancy it against a Celtic team that have several injuries , wet Wednesday night at home in December and desperately needing points. Surely full strength we must have fancied making a game of it
  17. The team is an awful watch. Slow build up with Annick used every third pass. The striker situation doesn’t look good and the tactics are horrible to watch . They are also not working. Five home wins in 18 months is a shocking record and we do have the look of a team on the slide. No wins in 9 games now with a hard run now til the shutdown it looks grim. Jim persisting with the formation is now borderline embarrassing not to mention hopeless. Is he under any real pressure tho? It’s brutal to watch so boring and our play is predictable Can we just accept that Livingston continue to perform better than us , above us again on a lesser budget? Or that Kilmarnock, county, St j , well , Thistle and Livi have all finished top six before. We are miles off top six much further than last year . Also for the guy slagging Obika is have him ahead of any of the three we had available today.
  18. I think we need some answers and without this the rumour mill will continue to churn out stories.
  19. Couldn’t agree more. Really hope our w7 fans don’t miss the mark with this. The club doesn’t answer the phone and in general everything from a fan’s perspective has got worse.
  20. Let’s get the Kibble out of our club. Regroup as a fan base and get back to paying our money to own our club.
  21. Yes most worried about our next result but I do believe jim will dig a win out in the next month.
  22. The attendance was announced as 3800 v county / I have read actually it was 2300? Anyone know about this. I am worried about the apathy surrounding the club at min. I look back at games before the pandemic and the stands look a fair bit busier than they do now. Sure I’m imagining the internet stream takes some away but surely after missing footy for a season our fans wanted back? Are attendances declining as they appear to be ?
