I get a good feeling about this game - a gut- feeling, not a rational thought! Very Happy

COYR!

We just cannot keep a clean sheet!
So so frustrating!
Now it's back to normal service against this lot!☹️
3-1 down in no time 😡
Absolute car crash at the back. Nothing new there.
Why sign players and stick them on the bench?
Why not use Corr or others ? They cannot be any worse than what is on the field. It's actually a bit embarrassing to be honest.

An utterly bizarre line up and formation. I think Brown has forgotten how to be a midfielder and Mullen has never been a centre midfielder but that's where he's playing.
All the subs are warming up at halftime so big changes are surely on the way but l fear it's too late for this game.

A possible glimmer of hope from Lewis? Next goal if there's to be one will be crucial. Can only but hope 🤞

I can't understand Murrays thinking playing a back 3 with 2 pretty crap full back and one centre half against this lot specially with the goalscoring threat they carry................ criminal

4 defeats on the bounce, poor tactics and strange team selections, we're not even hard to score against now.

To paraphrase a weel kent face aboot Starks - CHANGE IT Murray

Normal service resumed against this lot greatly helped by poor team selection and tactics which have cost us points today and not for the first time this season.
Consolation Partick only draw as do United.
Really need to get back to winning league games when they next arise.

Don't be fooled by the second half. We were woeful for the ninety and had Inverness kept going for it they would have punished us severely because we simply cannot defend. What's getting gone over all week in training I have no idea but it can't be how to defend crosses into the box or how to remain composed when even under a modicum of pressure. We are now in the midst of a McGlynn era slump in results. Our performances haven't dipped through as they have seldom totally convincing and if it wasn't for several freak results we'd be struggling to battle for fourth place.
A tactical disaster today from Murray, trying to fit square pegs into round holes all over the pitch. Thankfully that's the last league game for a fortnight. Plenty to ponder.

Been screaming for a defender for weeks.. Won’t even play ones that we do have. Yet, we are still in contention….massive improvement needed and soon!

Strange one.

We dominated game on the whole, only one team going to make the breakthrough which duly came… then we caved in with the awful defending which has become a theme last few weeks.

Barring that 10min spell, they barely threatened, we huffed and puffed 2nd half but the damage was done.

Line up and formation all over the shop as per and Dunfermline doing us a favour basically means nothing as we won’t be troubling Utd if we don’t get our fingers out…

Shout out to our rubbish fans again, barely a peep of encouragement before or after our goal but more than happy to vocally vent anger at our team, the opposition, the referee…. Just all round negativity.

Three weeks until the next league game so there's time for a reset. That wil! be important as it's United at SP.
A crazy ten minute spell when a player Adams doesn't rate scored a hat trick. Not sure about Kev's goalkeeping today. He seemed slow to move his feet for the first and that seemed to spur Samuel on to having potshots ,with great success.
I guess LV was our MotM but I thought he might have buried the chance when Rudden went down in the box but no penalty awarded. Maybe didn't realise he had as much time as he had.
Anyone know what injury Jack Hamilton sustained ?
The atmosphere was largely unsupportive , I agree. If the Singing Section is a success next Friday but reseating regulars difficult, why not house it in the corner where the young folk were today ?

Never have understood the booing of the team and certainly not a team in second place but that refereeing performance was one of the worst I have seen in a good while.
