Ronnie Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 Back on topic. I think post split despite being unbeaten think we have been poor in most of the games. This was against 4 teams with nothing to play for. The high ball policy to Mullen and Jackson clearly doesn't work the best 2 performances have been second half v Livingston and Hamilton when we got ball down and played to the one man advantage. Think United will have looked at our poor recent first half performances and go all out early doors I would play Cooke and Nazon to counter that and get them defending early instead.

When we played Livi they were still battling for places. Only a couple of points from Motherwell. When we played Saintees they were playing to be top of the bottom. Motherwell were still playing for places. Hamilton certainly had something to play for. Even Dundee players would have wanted to finish the season at home with a win. ETA: Cooke? Yes. With Mullen to assist. We need to keep the pace up front. The duck is as slow as F*** Edited May 19, 2019 by stlucifer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oaksoft Posted May 19, 2019 Report Share Posted May 19, 2019 It does beggar belief that anyone would actively sit there picking apart our recent great form looking for negative things to say. I suppose that's the character of some people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oaksoft I know you are a good fan I have been at last 5 games as you probably were and our form on paper yes it's great but the actual performances haven't imo being that good.

Dundee United players on the other hand will put every ounce of effort into the next 180 minutes, of the last 5 games only Hamilton did the same v us.

Exactly, performances and results are two different things pointswise 11 from 15 is brilliant but I stand by the performances could have been better. Scoring in the last 15 minutes of every match shows the desire is there just think nerves played their part in first 75 minutes in most of the games.

Even the manager in his post match interviews has pretty much said the same thing. I agree but I was more talking about your comment "4 teams with nothing to play for". What exactly is the point of that comment? Other people are talking about "aye but we only beat them cos they were down to 10 or 9 men". Both of these comments should be consigned to the bin. Our players have had to deal with the pressure of being bottom or 11th pretty much for an entire season. That has clearly been the root of our performance problems and we need to cut the boys some slack. We have two massive games this week and nobody should be looking for excuses to put our players down. The fact that we even have a chance of staying up and that it's completely in our own hands should be a relief and a motivator. We just don't need to be getting critical of the players right now. Let's do that after next Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The number of opposition players busting a gut not to concede and getting sent off in the process and those who left the field injured due to their efforts seems to suggest otherwise.

I'm not saying these players didn't try of course they wanted to win but did they all try as hard as they possibly could I don't know my thoughts would be probably not.

Both games against Utd will be similar in how aesthetically ugly they look but if we carry on with the dig and fight, we should be fine.

I’m sure he disagrees with those people too. The notion of St. Johnstone lying down yesterday is utterly farcical. Hamilton beat them fair and square, so fair play to them.

The damage this season was self inflicted and not helped when Jackson f**ked up that penalty at St Johnstone. You think there’s even the slightest chance there’s some sort of weird institutionalised desire at St. Johnstone to f**k over St. Mirren that has lasted since 2001? Come on Balfy.

And Darren Jackson is just a wank. Don’t even get me started on the Hearts team of the 80s or Motherwell 77. Ha Ha. Of course i read your post Bud.

I couldnt give a f**k what other people are saying on social media. Not one of those people was me so I am not sure the relevance. Never mind others opinions. You watched us play those those 4 teams. Did you personally think any of them lay down to us or played in holiday mode? Edited May 19, 2019 by oaksoft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
