    With all due respect to him, hitting a few good pens in training isnt the same as doing it infront of 50,000 in anger.

    Tbf I've seen a video of Hart taking penalties in training and he is very good.

    But so am I.

    In a semi final of the Scottish Cup is a completely different story.

    Yet brought on Forrest who changed the game for us when he came on. Idah looked a threat aswell in spells Bernardo solid when he came on. Lapses in concentration have done us letting two lads run off you at the back post is criminal

    If nothing else I hope the two lessons learned are 1. Yang shouldn't start again this season and Forest deserves more time. And 2. Rocki should start over Scales.

    That penalty shootout showed me one brilliant thing. We're going to win the league. Not one outfield player cracked. Massive pressure on our team as we are expected to win. A record of being * at penalties and every single one of them stood up and put it away with class as if it was nothing. Balls of * steel.

    Joe harts just big Joe :56: bet he'll still take one if we end up in a shootout in the final.

    Defenders need a kick up the *, but Aberdeen today was always going to revert back to the 3rd best team in Scotland. Semi final, good players and news of an actual qaulity manager incoming who will obviously be watching this game. The hardest possible time to get them. Showed today they'll be 3rd next season with ease.

    We're * golden.

    Today again highlights the weakness in our defence...2 crosses from deep left to the back post exposés Taylor who's too small and scales who's never a 1st choice centre half... Taylor we have no choice but to stick with him this season but if scales is better than nawrocki then we need to sell both and lagerbielke and find 2 better for next season...left back is a huge must for next season on a par with a new goalkeeper bcoz Hart is chucking it.....spend some proper money in those areas we don't lose stupid goals.

    With regards to the pen... mind this? it is essentially this same scenario here.

    Also seemed it wasn't given as AJ was cleared out with the header before.

    How the fuckndid oriley get motm, he was utter pish, class goal but easily about 6 or 7 players in game better than him.

    Our best player was probably forrest. I maybe wrong but think he hurt himself over on his ankle or something, that's why he may have come in.

    AJ was decent, gave plenty of running and balls in, but needs his baws kicked for letting hoilett cross for the 2nd.

    Hart was OK, outwith pk.

    CCV was decent defending balls around box but into a lot of probs ball over his head.

    May have missed boat but I'd defo sign Miovski, does power of work and great runs, would do well here. Wouldn't keep Idah.

    Yes, I said that at second bit. Just realised it was similar to Lagerbielke ponderous * up we got away with.

    A truly horrendous and worrying performance given what has happened in the league this past week.

    If that’s the sort of performance we are churning out when our tails should be up and our key players are back, it’s going to be an incredibly nervy last few weeks of the season.

    That being said, we are in a cup final. We done what we needed to do

    Difference is that lager was in control of the ball and effectively was "obstructed" as he went to play the ball by a player who didn't touch the ball.

    In today's case CCV wasn't in control of the ball. He just kicked a player in trying to get the ball. It's a definite pen in itself , but lucky for us there was a foul just before.

    Ahh. I thought it could be argued that CCV is the one in control and about to kick it but the boy outstretched and never even touching essentially fouls him by impeding his kick, like dessers impeding the lagerbielke passing leg motion.

    Im sorry mate but there was a lot more issues in that performance thank just letting the man go unmarked at the back post twice. We have shipped six goals in the past two games and have thrown away leads.
    Despite this, we are in the final and we have a chance to regroup before the next game.
