That is quite an aggressive stance by United

I think I can clear this one up.
In my extensive experience in the field of sarcastic statements of overwhelment (a word I'm pretty sure I just made up), I rule that Whoop-e-doo and Whoop-de-doo, are both acceptable. 👍
I don't have a scooby-de-doo about this

That’s very subjective
I doubt we will be recruiting from those currently out of contract as they will need time to get fit
if it was ever in the plan , and I don’t think it is, then that would be worrying
Anyhoo
I'll go with Mark

We can still sign free agents , players can still terminate their contracts or be released and can be signed after the window closes.

We are not paranoid wrecks like Celtic and Sevco. Wrong statement..
We should have said.
SORRY FANS FOR YESTERDAY.
WE WERE SHITE.
For once I agree, the manager took the blame, however players were well below their best and should have been able to work it out for themselves.
I also think our recruit to sell model is not the right one for us.. There seems to be no shortage of takers for our academy graduates however those we have paid a fee for have not met the standard and that suggests we are not recruiting at the right level.

There is really no point in issuing statements or complaining about refs. The people you are complaining too are the same idiots who appointed the idiots who officiate at the game.
This looks like diversion and blame spreading, Worse still, they seem to be preparing us for the relegation scrap. if things don't improve soon we will go into meltdown as a club
The manager's demeanour in his tv interview was pretty sad and i felt for him, he looked like he had no real idea what to do next. Massive progress over 2 seasons is now in jeopardy and if we have blown the budget already with a very poor squad then I'm afraid we are at risk. 2 loanees wont be able to cover the lack of quality in the 2 or so months to the split. If we don't get back into the top 6 very soon then it means we have failed to gain ground over those currently below us and that means a scrap we are ill-equipped to deal with to avoid relegation.

And bring back Fraser Taylor and get him in that team when we play teams that sit in FFS the road runners can do the running and hard graft for him
I really don’t think he will ever be back
I’d like to see it, I think he has been put in a pretty poor position with this loan so that he can be tagged as a self-fulfilling prophecy of failure
According to Fraser the manager had nothing to say to him about his future at their last meeting inJanuary

Must be bloody historic because I don’t remember him playing for us in my 50 years of watching. 🤣
Sorry

Who were the 3 defenders " let go " 🤔🤔
Rooney, now playing well elsewhere so why couldn't he play for us?
Bolton, apparently we got a fee and failed to use it to sign anyone of comparable quality
McManus, historic now but yet again any money received was not properly re-invested.
We actually brought Dunne back and he has yet to make any kind of contribution, yet another player with fitness issues signed. Every team has players coming & going, the trick is that we should be keeping the standard up since we are supposedly in a strong financial position (we must be as we can afford to pay transfer fees to sign players we don't field)

We deserved worse and only the fakes uselessness prevented that
Can we not coach players to deliver the odd pass to a teammate?

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 backThe players are not good enough, so who recruited them?
The tactics are long ball to Olusanya and that is it, so who dictates them?
Tanser not crossing the halfway line until 60 minutes ( and maybe only 3-4 times at that) and Fraser of all people given free run on the right in the last 30 minutes, who decided on that wee gem?
O’ Hara is on his own in the middle of the park, I really don’t think he should have been first off unless injured.
3 good defenders let go and not replaced with anything of remotely the same quality
No width or threat in attack.
I heard several fans say it is the worst we have seen in many a year
Oseni looked overwhelmed even at this poor level

Is that the boy who’s been rumoured for a while because I read if it is him he was injured playing for Palace U23s?
That injury probably sealed the deal for Saints

How do you know people wouldn't do the deed.
I can't speak for anyone else but I can assure you I'd do the deed.
Some people don't deserve to live, especially when I'm partially paying, so if this cnut who slaughtered 3 young girls gets his I'll not she'd a tear.
You can go his funeral and pay your redirects.
PS Do agree with you 100% on Stsrners bullshit, more political nonsense covering up incompetence.
So when the two old ladies were murdered in an atrocity in Paisley in the 80s you had to be physically held back?
How many have you killed so far?

It's a crap route for any trial. Practically no passengers on the route from Ferrytoll to Gogar anyway.
Best wait for an "elon" to do the job.

All ready an appeal for a too lenient sentence has been lodged
I just wonder what the request for review (it is not an appeal) will add to one of the longest jail terms ever handed down on a man who will never be released. Apart from serving the needs for attention of the Labour mp. a former attorney general has stated that the request is "hopeless" and international law prevents us from imposing whole-life terms on people of his age. The fact that he can't be released, ever, is surely enough? Anyone who wants symbolic sentencing is more focussed on their own needs than they are on victims..
And what is the bloodthirsty crap about, hoping he will be killed in prison? Macho language that undermines the justice system calling for someone who is looking for status in prison and who is probably in there for a horrendous crime to execute the murderer? If anyone gets to him it will be the result of a prison pecking order where someone who is bad enough to never get out anyway and doesn't care does him in in order to get favours from an organised crime head looking for bragging rights.
The perpretrator is a phsychopath, he is not operating in the same reality as most people and the biggest punishment for him is to get to a state where he has some idea of the horror of his crimes so that he can live with that for decades to come. The inquiry ordered by Starmer is a sham, the faults don't lie in Prevent or any system of tracking potential terrorists, they lie in how someone as obviously sick as this was not picked up by the authorities who could have detained him because the severity of his phsycopathy
Let's have no more talk, please, of promoting another murder, probably to be committed by another psychopath, from people who wouldn't do the deed themselves if they had the opportunity.

Harder game next week against an improving and combative St Johnstone, I must say of the games on Sportscene the lowest standard of football was displayed in their game V 'well, but they still battled in the same way that they did against us in Perth, with fewer mistakes from them than they made against us. I'm expecting a much more effective and higher press than we got from Aberdeen to try and prevent the long balls that got us the goals. They also tried to play on the counter-attack against us in December and if they are tighter than they were then the sides could cancel each other out, so the subs might be the key. We still need fewer mistakes from our side when under attack.
When he came on that day, Mooney's movement really unsettled them and that helped lead to the winning goals so I'd like to see him make an appearance. Otherwise, no failures yesterday and other than longer term obvious need for a better RWB there is no case for changing the starting 11 (unless bids are accepted for Taylor and Olusanya).
