Why do we always sit back when we go 2 or 3 goals ahead ?

This as quite true.

 

Sammy you're right it's about cash...

But we were 3-0 up. If it's a toss up before scoring more NOW or being 100% fit for Arsenal then money-wise it makes far more sense being fit and mentally prepared for Arsenal.

 

Agreed but that game was dead and buried today ,job done and players rest came into it .

 

Why ???

There is nothing stated that is untrue.

 

aye we did when loovens went off we lost the place for 10 mins then stepped it up again and saw the match out comfortably

 

Dont quote me but i think Hibs where top last season after ONE game.

 

nah.. havent checked the league table, but every team who wins today is in 1st place. the only thing that works out the order is the goal difference.

what age are you sammybobo? because you have the mentality of a child..

 

Good point tim_park, it was probably more to do with Loovens going off than us stepping off the gas...

 

Though we "comfortably" couldn't score again ????????????

 

(and to add to the comment) with 10 men on the pitch.

 

Players must be pretty weak mentally if 1 goal, after 1 game of the season, gives the huns a psychological advantage.

I'm sorry but if you are disappointed after a good performance and result today, I'd hate to see what you will be like when we actually drop points.

 

Why can you deduce that ?

You are obviously highly qualified ?

If goal difference works out the league table as you state, we are obviously not top. Even though everybody is in 1st place...

What do you find daft about that ?

We would have been league leaders if we had continue to press instead of sitting back.

 

Well let them enjoy there stay at the top ,cos i firmly believe in another 37 games time Celtic will be there .

 

Who cares who is top after one match ! Next April is when it matters !

 

I totally agree

 

Hey Bhoys..3 points and 3 goals at Pitoddrie i'll take that any day...we keep that up we'll be out of sight this season!!
Oh,and YES..I hate it when we take the foot aff the gas but it's understandable and by the way NEVER worry aboot what the Huns are doin' as long as we keep winning.

First day of the season a good away win...

let's party!!

 

Don't forget we had a much harder fixture than the buns.

 

Aberdeen at Pittodrie is going to be one of the most difficult games this season and we won it comfortably, never looked like not winning but I have to agree a little with the OP. I would like to have seen us make our subs for sunday and push on for a few more goals.

Still 3 points and a cracking first day performance, cant argue with that.

 

spot on

 

Moaning about a 3-1 away win at pittodrie where we usually struggle playing. Before the game I woulda been over the moon with a 3-1 win, as I am now delighted with it.. I wouldn't say we meant to take the foot off the gas it's just a natural reaction when your 3-0 up going into a second half..
