    Firstly I hope all of those that were predicting a 4 or 5 nil Hun skelping have a safe journey back from wherever the drugs took you too. !!
    No sign sign of ANGE BALL today, easily nullied by countering the press, Huns pressed us into making mistakes. That had Lennon all over it at times, we havent passed it back so much since he was in charge.
    This is on the manager, if all of us in this forum could see Kyogo is better through the middle then Eddy Im sure he could. Eddy only there on reputation, a price tag. Goldson and Helleander never had to work all day, their midfield, lead by an aging Davis allowed us to have the ball but closed down when need forcing us to go back. It maybe early days in the League but stats dont lie, played 4 and lost 2, both away games.
    The hardest thing to take is not the performance but the Huns were there for the taking and we blew it, even a draw as I was expecting would have been a good result.
    This performance and result is with the manager, far too late making the change.

    There’s people in the Paddy Roberts thread arguing we absolutely don’t need a right winger because we have Abada (teenager, can’t do it for 45mins never mind 90), Dembele (teenager, barely even played pro football matches yet) and Forrest (suffering year-long injury concerns).

    But aye we’re well covered for a 50+ game season.

    They were there for the taking but too many in the hoops failed to impose themselves.

    Cal Mac can't be faulted and Kyogo gets a pass as he was played out left.

    Ralston another solid game.

    New signing playing out of position and done ok.

    The rest, meh.

    Poor showing as a team and Eddy playing caused most of that as Rogic was squeezed for a place.

    Looked much better with Kyogo in the middle but it was too late with change. Should have been done at Half Time

    Gutted cause i think they would have crumbled if we won.

    They done a job on us and played for set pieces, while we looked leggy up front and never got going.

    talk of being a disgrace are a bit over the top, we've took big steps in 2 months but not enough to expect a win in their cesspit too be a stroll this early in the season

    Using hindsight to get raging at subs and selection as well... pointless, it just never worked on the day.

    We need 4 or 5 first team/ squad players before the window shuts.

    Lenny style OF premier for Ange. Should have done better. To put Eddy up top and waste Kyogo's talent was stupid and played a big part in us playing like under Lenny.

    Well there you go, another fecking cross ball goal and we are beat. Sick to the back teeth going on about how we need a big tall ball winning CH and perhaps a few outfield players with a bit of dig. It's all very well talking about silky football but the game is more physical now and we are a team of midgets in comparison to the huns. Abada was invisible, Christie was dreadful and Eddy can get himself tae * after that heartless performance today.

    in context we played like we didnt have ange or his philisophy, that game there was a carbon blueprint of how we played all last season players playing in positions there not suited to guy upfront who doesnt want to play for us

    we changed our current players into average no marks by playing them in positions there not as good at

    honestly think ange shat himself and let john kennedy and strachan run this preperation and setup for this game

    back to having no purpose no identity

    who the * decided to play christie on the right center side of midfeld instead of the left ??? hadnt they realised thats the worst position for him to play ? it was obvious all last season because the guy is so left footed hes not even a quarter of the player he can be in left center midfield or leftmidfield i dont understand that move at all except if it was to try and mark one of the hun players

    eddie is done he couldnt score in a barrel of fannies, i wouldn't give him another game, get him so far too * waster *, ive got a feeling hes playing so * * that no * is going to buy him and i think that we gambled playing him today hopeing hed show himself as a good player to prospective interested teams, no * chance now, were stuck with this imposter for the rest of the season

    our magic japanese striker having to make way for this big sulky wasting * and having to play left wing where hes not even half the player he can be

    absolute car crash, managers and coaches bottled it

    i really got the impression BIG ANGE was not a man who would take a step back from his philosophy on how he wanted to play his ideology!,,,, after that he talks absolute * i want to hear what * he comes out with for that line up and performance id imagine it will be lennon like bullshit were gonna get from him

    so dissapointed that was an awful team and awful performance no shot at gol until the 75m or something

    I think we would have won the game had Kyogo started as striker, could see the difference when he changed position created a couple of chances for himself.

    Still in a transitional period,hopefully that’s last game Eddie plays for us.Our bench was well weak apart from Rogic,no wingers to bring on.Been playing the same players 2 games a week for the last 6 weeks and you could tell today.Can see another 3-4 signings before Tuesday.We’ll beat these * at Paradise.

    I’m actually not that raging. I’m raging at a few players because I think they shat it. But it’s Edouard, Christie, Turnbull who know fine well what this fixture is about. It at like they reverted to last years tactics or “lack of”.

    Sore one to take. Positives - we’ve come a long way in a month. Ralston and Welsh can handle anything thrown at them. Starfelts best game and our new signing has a good game.

    Midfield totally failed the team today, would give any of them more than 3 out of 10. Weren’t brave on the ball passing was far too slow and safe. Christie can go, he can’t control the ball every time his second touch was a tackle. Turnbull looked like he had lead boots on.

    Abada a game too much for him but the service he got was so poor always with his back to goal and the fullback right on him.

    The defending at the goal where’s the blocker on one of their main threats run? That’s cost us a point.

    Need at least 4 in by Wednesday not including the Greek striker. A proper left winger, proper commanding centre midfielder who can actually take control of a game, a left back and probably another forward. I would love a big physical left sided centre half too.

    Sell Edouard and Christie they were brutal today.

    * this.

    Ange should just send the team home and don't bother addressing them.

    Then immediately find every member of the board and DD and * rattle the * until they bleed money.

    That was like watching a Lennon team. No where even close to the way we've been playing recently. No overloads, no urgency and no risks.

    No point slating individual performances that came down to pure shitebaggery across the board.

    Won't blame the manager but he needs to have a word with his players. Shat the bed there.

    Lennon was absolutely slated from our support and went to that dump and we put in a far better performance than that. We were * awful, team even looked knackered for the last 20/30 minutes. A total shambles of a performance.

    Exactly, Ange needs to change stuff like that during half time. Don't be scared of big names. If they don't perform kick them out. Otherwise Ange will just be another Lennon. Hope he learns quickly. I'm done with selfmade troubles.
