santaponsasaint Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Rae is a one trick pony. Long high aimless balls. Get rid guy not got a clue. At one point Ayr fans were laughing at us. No midfield. It hard to blame players who following r the management instructions Pass marks Clarkson Sutton and Mallan. But rest pitiful.

Isle Of Bute Saint Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 That's the spirit. Mate I am the type who can take defeate and come away quite happy as long as the team play well.

Indeed I did so thank you for pointing that out. We're you at the game today and all the others ? Are you telling me there are signs of improvement. Is your eyesight poor.

Isle Of Bute Saint Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Personally I had a great day out at the seaside. Thankfuly I avoided Ayr and went to Largs with the family. Cracking fish supper and ice cream from Nardinis for less than the price of watching Saints struggle. Modern fitba is PISH. What was going on there today ,got held in a traffic jam. Had to do a detour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Pityme Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Scene after game at Somerset Park... Rae has to get away sharpish for a club function in the Louden Tavern (his real club) so he has to bodybswerve the team bus back and has arranged his own transport. steward at main entrance is met by a taxi driver "Taxi tae Govan" Steward "is it for Rae?" "aye" Steward "park it forty yards doon the street then" "wheraboots" Steward "disnae matter, somebody else will get there first and pump it back this way" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dibbles old paperboy Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 I've seen us a few times this season and not been impressed. I saw us last season after Rae took over and wasn't impressed at the style of play but did recognise that Rae had dramatically improved results. While I don't expect any manager to have a brilliant transfer window and correct every problem in the squad, I still think that most of Rae's signings will prove to be OK to quite good at our current level. The time to judge Rae this season will be late October / early November. We have gone with a smaller, more experienced squad with a number of utility players... we are missing Quinn, Gordon, McKenzie, Morgan and Gallagher at the moment - 5 players down. Let's see how we do with a fuller squad to choose from and what we are like if we get a win and some confidence back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both of these things are the responsibility of the management. We are sadly lacking in both and there are only two people to blame for that. I'm now seriously regretting renewing my season ticket.

Rae changed the formation today and defensively it was ok. Creativity was non existent leading to us booming aimless punts from all angles towards Sutton. We need to sign two central midfielders as an urgency before the window closes. No matter what formation we play, a midfield of Mallan and Hutton will not work. Hutton needs another central midfield digger to allow Mallan to go forward and create from midfield. Some things were better today. Irvine was much better back on the right and Walsh git forward well when replacing Stewart. Clarkson tried hard but like Irvine last week he was a square peg in a round hole. We need natural central midfielders and quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sonny Posted August 27, 2016 Report Share Posted August 27, 2016 Just back. Good day out spoiled by 90 mins of dross. Different formation but same tactics - punt high balls up to the front two. This is as bad as anything Murray gave us. Last away game of the season for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And neither is the manager as he didn't fix that in the summer. I think we do have decent players. However, Rae's signing (and re-signing) policy seems to be pretty suspect. He's signed some players with a good track record and some with a lot of potential, but they don't seem to fit into any system. Even if we were to sign a defensive midfield player, I think we need to play five in midfield, and that leaves us with four forwards vying for one place up front. So in effect we seem to be paying players who are surplus to requirements. Having four CH's is another example of that. And that's even before we start on his tactics or lack of them, to be more accurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
