    mogga * up at 4-2 i think he thought the game was won and he made the wrong choices in his subs, dont wanna go into the reasons why im getting angry again just thinking about it!!
    but..

    we must endeavour to persevere with the players and the management this is our lot
    a lot of the fans on this forum and at parkhead wanted strachan out for a manager whos teams played flowing attacking football..
    well this is it guys now what do you lot want? a manager who can win things.. i dont think strachan should have been hounded out the way he was just the same as i think hounding out mogga would be a mistake..

    some of you * need to man up and get some balls instead of moaning like kids and wingeing like little * sure we have better football players than the huns who do have the worst team they've had in * years , the same huns who cant buy players now or in the immediate future so *..
    thats them this is us support our * team for a change stop moaning accept that for the moment at least the title is gone take the pressure off of mogga and the players and let them try and solve the problems we have on the park and actually build a winning side without the constant .. oh for * sake get him tae * attitude he's pish
    a lot of you * need to take a long cold hard look at yourselves we're all fans we're all disappointed with how the season has panned out thus far we need to move on now as a unit club,players,management and fans as one!!
    get behind the team not on top of it!!! hail hail

    The game today felt almost as bad as Black Sunday at Fir Park. Can't explain why really but it did.

    In fact, looking back, the reason is that we lost we the league today, just like we did that day at Fir Park. I, and am sure many others realised today that we just don't have what it takes to win the league this season.

    I genuinely felt sick to my stomach when Aberdeen got their 4th today.

    Tony its time to go.

    Theoretically speaking, passing the ball about is the way to break down these deep, 8-man defences. The only problem is, that passing has to be direct (that is, forward), fast, intelligent and accurate, whereas we tend to take that extra touch before making the pass, by which point it's too late.

    I still maintain that if we can find consistency and a settled back line then we have a very good team on our hands. It may well be that we won't have that until next season, by which point Mowbray will either be away or MUST have all his players together.

    We've had problems with injuries all season, and we've had to make a lot of changes to the side. It's made it hard to find a settled side which makes a string of consistent performances and results hard to get, and that's what we have seen this season - inconsistency. More than anything else, it's been inconsistency.

    Compare the Huns. Same group of players for the last, what, 18 months? Very poor players I grant you, but they know the drill and each other well enough to get by.

    Mowbray will need a settled squad by September, there's no way around that. I think he's made most of his changes already, which is good, and I'm sure there are plans to gather the rest of his hand in the summer, which is why I doubt Mowbray's job is in danger. O'Neill and Strachan were given a year to get their stuff together by the board, I'm sure Mowbray will be given the same.

    This season has been a nightmare, no doubt. But we do have a good team with a lot of quality. Like I said before, it'll come down to finding a settled side next season. The future will judge Tony Mowbray on that one.

    We cant blame the strikers for 2days result, scoring 4 goals in one match usually ends up in a comfy win.

    Watching todays game our midfielders failed to win the majority of second balls coming out of our own and Aberdeens penalty box

    The right & left backs are constantly posted missing and out of position when the opponents are on the attack resulting in too many crossed balls coming into our box which we cannot defend.

    The less said about zonal defending at set pieces the better, just watch Rasmussen when Aberdeen got their 4th goal, he actually was marking Maclean then decided to move to cover a zone where no Aberdeen player was near... Absolutley shocking!!!!

    Yes, you have to feel sympathy for the strikers who scored 4 goals and have to settle for a measly point when we needed all 3. That about sums it up, I was gutted today with the result, I'm sure they felt 10x worse because they worked so hard. There was some nice passing but you have to defend a lead. I think Hinkel would have made a difference if he had been able to play. The irony is he hardly misses a game. I ended up watching the movie Cool Runnings to cheer myself up.
