He is not taking pleasure. With St Mirren, you just got to laugh. It's what they put you through most of the time. I had 50 years of mostly despair watching them and the team letting me down. You just ust got to laugh now and again to ease the pain . Elvis has St Mirren sussed. He knows the score. And he is a supporter like the rest of us. Long suffering.

And bring in one or two actual strikers with their wages. Wage thieves the last month. Mandron? He is the only one capable of scoring this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup. Free fall & with long ball tactics, players who’ve been out of form but starting ahead of others, it’s no surprise. Would seem We got lucky at the start of the season and we are now being found out. Edited December 6, 2023 by spankin_panda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
northstbuddie Posted December 6, 2023 Report Share Posted December 6, 2023 (edited) Instead of finishing in the top six, we are now entering a phase where we're struggling against dropping into a group of four fighting against relegation - despite our promising start to the season! Despite our present position in the league, it's now a battle between ourselves, St Johnstone, Livingston and Motherwell against relegation. Currently these are the four teams on a downer. However, if we can regain our earlier form - all is not lost - although there's no sign of that happening. PS: Aberdeen are definately on a downer but probably have too much quality to go down under a new manager.

TPAFKA Jersey 2 Posted December 6, 2023 Report Share Posted December 6, 2023 Well there you have it folks. That is rock bottom so far this season. Fraser, Gogic, Dunne, Bolton, Kiltie, O’Hara, Boyd-Munce, McMenamin, Ayunga, Jamieson all woeful. Fraser was infuriatingly bad tonight. When Baccus came on I had genuinely forgotten that Kiltie was on the park. That St. Johnstone team is absolutely shite and we were too shite to even get a draw off them. Really don’t know what the answer is. Whatever footballing ability our players had earlier this season seems to have evaporated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smithers Jones Posted December 6, 2023 Report Share Posted December 6, 2023 No energy again. They did no more than us, but when you are not professional enough to see that through to gain a point is criminal. We built our good results around pressing early and moving the ball quickly. We now look sluggish in our movement and the long ball thing needs to stop. If there is a positive (I know) Ayunga's contribution since he has returned has been great. No idea how we turn this around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If all results had went the way he predicts, we’d be proping up the lowlands feeder league by now.

billyg Posted December 6, 2023 Report Share Posted December 6, 2023 Boyd Munce should never be in the side ahead of Baccus , McMenamin looks as if he wants back across the Irish Sea, Tanser got his new contract and has regressed to last season's form , O'Hara has stopped running , which is the main part of his game. I could go on ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could go on ! Agree with this, but not Tanser. Thankfully he has been decent. O'hara last season was box to box, getting on the end of chances and between him and Baccus created the platform to move us forward. Hasn't happened this season. Baccus has to start, if fit, but I have no idea how we turn this run of form round, it's been awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could go on ! When i had the temerity to suggest CBM wasn't contributing I was told on this forum that his play alongside Baccus was a thing of beauty and that O'Hara would not get back in ahead of him. It's pretty clear that Baccus is the driving force in the middle and provides the spark (when it is there) and the other players don't know what to do without Gogic in midfield. Jamieson was disappointing yet i still think he will do very well for us. In all honesty, aside from home v the fakes we have been shit since that cup game at Easter road. As for Mandron, he seems to lack the heart for a battle and all of a sudden Jon Obika looks like a goal machine again in comparison. Instead of decorating lamposts maybe we should have a whip-round for Van Veen on loan in the new year It's our perrenial problem, the opposition suss out both the tactics in the Robinson playbook and they know we can't score. That means they only have to sit it out and hit us on the break in the way Dundee did so effectively against us. Very quickly, we need to go to 4 at the back or even 5 with 2 holding in midfield, but we don't have that many decent defenders in the squad. If Robinson can figure out how to get the door closed at the back then fine, if not then he has the kind of trouble that very few managers can get themselves out of Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even when we win , posters still refer to him. It's what he wants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
