saint in exile 2,275 Report post Posted January 24 Well that was pish poor. mason needs to be hooked. Brophy is lost up there on his own, and Cammy & Ethan dont have the composure to boss midfield. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
party politics 56 Report post Posted January 24 Nowhere near good enough, not even a championship player. Not difficult to see why his club let him go out on loan. Need to get Mason off at half time 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m going to run with the positive vibe that the second half can’t possibly be as bad...........can it? I bloody hope not! Surely can't be that hard to string some passes together, we are making livi look good 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oaksoft 13,478 Report post Posted January 24 And this I'm afraid is what blind panic looks like. We appear to have no central midfield whatsoever. Our wingers when they do get the ball are doing nothing with it because they have nobody in the middle supporting them. All I'm seeing is our defence punting high balls when really we need a period of short sharp passing. We need more movement in central midfield for that to happen. At least we've stopped them coming at us in waves and now we're seeing a lot more possession. They're on top of us the second we get on the ball though. Key message at half time. Play shorter passes, move for each other more, get central midfield involved and FFS shoot if you get a sight of goal Connolly. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

antrin 5,003 Report post Posted January 24 1 minute ago, Ayrshire Saints said: At least it's only 1 ! That's my thought.... held Livvy to only 1 for 45 minutes - after allowing them so much space and opportunity. No cohesive forward movement. Things can only get better... Ahead in (pointless) possession at the moment! Woopy-do! 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the barrhead teacher 759 Report post Posted January 24 That’s been brutal to watch. Hoped not being a league game we might lift ourselves from recent rut we have got ourselves into. We’ve got nothing to lose in second half need to go for it and l suspect change personnel and set up or we go out meekly 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
northstbuddie 1,283 Report post Posted January 24 If we lose this one - I won't be too disappointed. We do not deserve anything . Lacking quality and second to the ball - and as usual practically no efforts on goal. Someone please point out the silver lining. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sweeper07 4,285 Report post Posted January 24 Not sure we need both Fraser and Tait either the way Livi play. One to watch Mullin and us to have a more attacking formation. Mason and one of the above off. Flynn (or Foley) and Obika on (of Erwin for those who love him). And get the ball to feet and move into spaces and stop letting them have time on the ball.... 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WirralSaint 811 Report post Posted January 24 Sick of playing Livingston with weak referees who allow them to plough through our players and miss the most crucial incidents. This time a clear penalty, last time a blatant violent red card which fortunately we saw out for the win when they should have had 10 men. So clear it for a 2 game ban afterwards of no advantage to us. Mason out for 3 4? games suddenly asked to be a midfielder looking clueless. 7 defenders who then can't defend a set piece and a tactic of hoofing long balls to a 5'9 forward against 2 huge centre halves. Depressing 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigjerseybuddie 922 Report post Posted January 24 We look beaten. Our player body language is shocking.When you have a throw in and clearly don’t have a plan then you can forget it. Every Livingston player knows his job, we clearly don’t. Hit and hope will not turn this around. We have been found out big time. No creativity, no heart, no goals. Watch us turn it around second half😂 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sadly what happens when Jim decides to make the heart of the team 2 youngsters who have looked shockingly out of form for weeks. Mason as a winger too FFS if he looked any more out of his depth David Hasselhoff would be diving in to save him. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
