TsuMirren Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 You can show effort and try as hard as you can but really the league table doesn't lie I am afraid that we are just not good enough and the boy Morgan is really miles away at present for this level. Yet provides more than Plugs Wylde. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JJ McG Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Sadlier looked very decent, he should stay in the team. I would keep the same line up for the motherwell game, far more solid without that liability Sean Kelly in the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Ham Saint Posted April 3, 2015 Report Share Posted April 3, 2015 Back in West Ham's 'Great Escape' (Tevez) season when we were odds on to go down we played bitter rivals Tottenham Hotspur in our run in. For the first time all season we showed some fight, showed that they cared, showed we were prepared to scrap for everything.... Oh and we lost. But i walked away from that game feeling strangely positive, I thought I saw a spark that night that I hoped would turn out season. Turns out I was right and the belief around the club began to grow until we dragged ourselves safe on the last day of the season. Hopefully we have seen the same tonight with the Saints, hopefully the hard fought game has ignited a belief amongst the players that if they put that sort of effort in for the other games they just might claw themselves out of it. Now is the time for the fans to get behind the team too and stick with them until the hopefully happy ending. I didn't manage to see the game today but all reports say we fought well. How did Sadlier get on with his first start? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gc_SMFC Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 We competed well, but overall we didn't threaten enough. Teale again made some baffling changes. Morgan up against Ambrose!? Leaving Mallan on, despite him holding his hamstring most the second half. I'm disappointed in McGinn, he showed more fight for the ball tonight than he's shown all season. Maybe he'll decide to turn up as we know him in the next two televised games as well. We showed a bit of fight, something we've lacked, shame it wasn't a bit earlier in the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
farmer john Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 I thought we played very well for the 90 mins but we only created 2,maybe 3,chances.Nice to see a bit of fight from the team,sellic certainly knew they'd been in a game.We're in the last chance saloon now,6 points from next 2 games or it's bye bye and hello hello what ever else happens....don't want Hello Hello Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TsuMirren Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 I thought he played very well and was surprised when he was subbed. Yup, looked to have a lot left in the tank. As a sidenote, the highlights are up and it's pretty obvious there's no point complaining about the content. Would be nice if they didn't miss key incidents like the player being taken out as he broke forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

windae cleaner Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 St Mirren 0 That's the problem Last night showed you can set your team up hard to beat Apart from Thommo who can no longer run around for any great length of time who can score goals Arquin when he played with McLean showed he was a good link up man but won't score any great amount of goals McGinn and Mallan are tidy wee players but won't score goals The pressure will be on Dayton as Gow and Wylde have a heart of a mouse and aren't what we need I thought Tess and Naismith were excellent last night and i expect Naismith to move in the summer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuddieinEK Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 Some of the link up play between Arquin and Sadlier was really good and shows promise. Problem is, by now we should be accepting delivery rather than relying on a promise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RickMcD Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 If we had only played like that in even two or three other games against poorer opposition we wouldn't be staring relegation straight in the face. A bit of bad luck and terrible refereeing decisions haven't helped either. Last night at least gives us a glimmer of hope if we can play like that again.

windae cleaner Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 On last night's game though he had no real bearing on the result The ref was fecking terrible especially towards Mallan give him no protection when he was clearly fouled the majority of the night Goodwin commits 1 foul the whole night yellow card could argue it was a card but his offence was no worse than others before hand and nothing. My main gripe is his treatment of Mallan though even when he was clearly elbowed and he went down with a head knock play raged on Alan Muir is a poor ref imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit of bad luck and terrible refereeing decisions haven't helped either. Last night at least gives us a glimmer of hope if we can play like that again. Totally agree. Definitely positives to take from last night, but the same players that were honking and showing a complete lack of fight and belief against St Johnstone, seemed to raise their game in front of the cameras last night. Too little too late I'm afraid, buy I'd love to be proved wrong. If anything, the players should've been playing with more belief against St Johnstone, as it was a winnable game. Thought Tess was superb, especially in the first half, resulting in Forrest(just before he scored) being moved to the other wing, as Tess had him in his pocket. Yet again, I thought Goodwin was our best player. His yellow card was warranted, but it's good to see someone giving Brown a taste of his own medicine; the difference being Brown wouldn't have been carded.

We cannot raise our game until we stare into the abyss. Utterly frustrating. Season after season we do this. Ross county win five on the spin, other teams go on wee runs, we have not done that in a decade , hence , where we are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ditto Posted April 4, 2015 Report Share Posted April 4, 2015 The boy should have been playing weeks agothe thing is he has no real first team experience so if I am honest I agree with the way that the Management have handled him and his introduction to the squad. He has settled really well into the club, loves it up here and is really appreciative of the way that the other players have welcomed him to the club and the way that the fans have accepted and greeted him - you are now just seeing a small amount of what he can do when he is on the ball. First start under his belt for the club, a baptism of fire, but thought he handled it really well. He will now use that experience to get into Motherwell & Ross County sides if he starts where I would expect us to have more of the ball and the chance to get the ball out to him and Dayton a lot more.

Along he's here next season in the Championship. After the Hamilton game a few of us expected him to be more involved as in that short time he had shown more than Wylde has this season. Glad he's enjoying it up here as us fans aren't this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
