    Only positive contribution he had has clattering a fella off the pitch. Brutal. Should only be in the starting 11 when its out of necessity.

    His best days are well behind him. That's the simple crux of the matter. Age catches up with all players especially when ur best trait is running around. When ur legs go with this type of player then you have very little to offer. Edward Sheringham played until 43 because he had a football brain. His game was NOT about running around

    Was a terrible challenge, what I will say is he * in a challenge like that at Ibrokes a couple of seasons back and it lifted the whole team. We still need him on the 29th no doubt about it.

    It was obvious towards the end of last season how much slower he was.

    Watching him trying to chase back today was brutal.

    It was obvious at Ibrox he done it to fire the team up. Immediately went around the team shouting at them to lift it.

    Today just looked like someone too slow at making the challenge.

    I worry if he starts on the 29th. Our attacking play is non existent when he plays now.

    I’d play him right back tbh, he’s not good enough to play that role now and affects the rest of the team. There’s a reason we started performing so much better when McGregor stepped in there.

    He’s the first name on the team sheet against those * for me.

    Definitely looks to have lost that bit of pace..

    Looked like he was actually annoyed with his self as well as every other *. Feet and body no doing what he wants..

    Horgan bossed him..

    First time I've questioned is that him maybe..

    Why?
    Because its worked in the past?
    We are a far better side without him at present, dropping back into the centre of defence to make sideway passes or lay it to gordon, stifles any creativity we have.

    If that tackle was against us I'd be shouting straight red. Don't think he was the worst today though.

    Because these games need Brown in the team, this guy has been the mainstay of our midfield for a number of years. But aye let’s just forget about all that as today’s game has finished him.

    hate to say it but maybe best as a sub now to come on and slow the game down when we're trying to see a game out.
    both of his starts since he came back have been 1-1 and 0-2 so it's not looking good for him.

    Not just todays game though is it?
    Upturn in performances coincided with brown not playing.
    Hes been a great player for the club but his influence is starting to wane.

    I don’t think he’s the type of player that will happily sit on the bench, I think he knows his time here couls be up. Hope not, I want him here for 10 but he’d only be a bit part player for it from here on in.
