Fort William v Inverurie Loco Works - Jason Hasson
Fraserburgh v Keith - Mat Northcroft Nairn County v Huntly - Alan Frew
Rothes v Buckie Thistle - Craig Sim
Just Awful
We deserved nothing from the game.
The team were all over the place.
No one was up for it and Mc G is kidding himself if he thinks we were unlucky.
The 3 at the back was a shambles (unlike the Buckie game).
Why were Andy and Neil on the bench ???
Hamish was clueless and is either lacking ability or confidence ..not sure which yet ?
A completely forgettable afternoon.
if it wasn`t for their keeper we would have run out easy winners,several brilliant saves,but will agree the defence were not at the races nobody seemed to know what to do.
Im sure dave will have taken alot out of this game and atleast we got a point out of the game. Hopefully we will get the win against cove next week and that the team plays to alot higher standrad.
I can't believe that it is the same team that put out a briliant performance against dundee were the same team in this game, c'mon lads where has the passion gone!!
For starters we had chances in the second half to win the match as both Dave and Les Fridge have said in there interviews after the match.
The defence have been fantastic all season with Big Mo, Redford playing fantastic week in week out so give them a break for having an off day.
Lets just concentrate on Saturday V Cove and give the players our full support, They dont need you to tell them that it was not good on Sat they now for themselves.
Andy,
Yes it was harsh.
If the post match report had said it was a bad day at the office then fair enough.
What was really worrying is that the team just seemed so flat and were clearly struggling with the system.
So as you say we move on and I hope the Cove game will bring out a Dundee performance.
Supporters pay their money and are entitled to have their say.
The comments are about this one game, not about what has happened in the past. There has been plenty praise heaped on the team for past performances. However, in the Nairn game the team performance as a whole was under par and you say that they know this, well I hope they do, because if that type of performance is accepted by anyone we won't win very much. Yes we had chances to win the game, but so did Nairn, and we were extremely lucky to get a point. Nairn has not been an easy place to go over the last few seasons and going there on the back of 2 defeats for them we should have expected nothing less than a hard/difficult game. As with any game, win lose or draw, I would expect to see 100% commitment from 100% of the team, and unfortunately I did not witness this at Nairn.
In any walk of life constructive critisim must be taken on board as well as praise, it is no use saying everything is wonderful, if it isn't. So what is the point of having a fans forum for fans to have their say, and give their observations, if the Director of Football only wants to see praise?
Having said all that I'm confident of an improved performance on Saturday and will play my part and back the team 100%.
maybe the team were aff because they are not getting on at mo.......on good authority i hear one player had a go at the another for being hungover from fri well this alone doesn't sit very well in a team does it?
also maybe cause one of the players seemingly couldn't get a seat on the bus till bums were shifted before even getting to the game, cause there were tooooooooooo many hangers on????????????????
just what we are hearing at the mo like so if this is not true then fair enough!!!!!!!!!!1
oh and in reply to another post do believe ...... ..... is just useless. its experience the team needs just now to stand a chnce of going anywhere!!!!
