Might scrape a draw. I'd drop Ojo, brown and Ferguson and bring in, ahh who fucking cares. This season is a disaster. 

I agree about dropping them 3. Never happen, though

                      Lewis

Ramsay Gallagher Bates McKenzie

                 McGeough

             McCrorie   Barron  

       Vinnie    Ramirez   Hayes

McCrorie, the more I watch him, is yer modern day midfielder - classic number 8. Like Scott McTominay.

People will argue, and with some justification “break up our best central defensive  combination?” but is it that good? The goals we have lost in the last 2 games? 

The current setup ain’t working so let’s shake it up a bit

That's pretty much exactly the line up I'd like to go with. I think McCrorie is wasted at the back and would offer us more of a spark at the other end. Brown needs rested, he's been poor in the last 2 games. Ferguson should have gone in January, he clearly doesn't have the appetite to play for us anymore. Ojo is useless, the fact that glass seems obvious to this is frankly baffling.

Who would be captain?

If we are playing Brown and Ferguson together I think it is clear we need someone at least remotely creative in with them. I'd like to see Barron get a run too. 

Hopefully McKenzie or Young Monty are at left back so Hayes can play further forward and Ojo isn't on the pitch

This is a must going forward.  Ojo is central to how we're playing at the moment i.e. shite.  

Either turns back slowing play right down, gives the ball away or just blooters it out the park killing every attack stone dead.  Hopeless

Turning back is actually the one that offends me the most. Its the last thing you want a winger in a good position to do when he gets the ball. He just shouldnt be playing in that position though, its bizarre from Glass. How can it still be happening into February

Given the type of player that Glass was too, it’s all the more bizarre that he should be picking a square peg in the round hole of which he strutted his stuff.

The Ojo affair will be what ultimately brings him down so on his head be it

McCrorie only ended up in midfield because sevco thought he was shite as a central defender. His preference is to play centre back but obviously would play wherever he's told to. On this season's evidence, him and Bates are unquestionably our best CH pairing so I think it unlikely he'll be returning to midfield any time soon.

Any competent manager would have sussed Ojo as being a reasonable squad player but not a starter unless the club had a bit of an injury crisis. It's evident that Glass isn't a competent manager however.

Fuck knows what will come out of the tombola but we do have a better record at Livingston than most, in spite of the shitty pitch. The performance might not be great but we usually find a way to get a result.

0-1 ( Besuijen)

I thought it was the opposite way about with McCrorie in that he wanted to play CM.

Almost past caring.

We won’t win.

 

Aye, I'm not sure how many more afternoons / evenings I'm going to bother wasting watching this garbage on RedTV. Zero signs of improvement - it's as clueless as ever. No excitement, no quality, it's just a total borefest watching our matches. They're basically just battling performances and you know exactly how it's going to play out.

Definitely not. McCrorie's preference is, and always has been, to play at CH

He started out as a CH with sevco but they thought he was a liability there, they sent him to Portsmouth to try to improve him but they quickly sussed out that he was pretty hopeless at CH too. So they dropped him. But then suffered such an injury crisis they had no option but to bring him back. At right back where he stayed till his loan was up

Sevco then pushed him into defensive midfield where he wasn't disastrous but obviously once they signed Kamara and Davis...with Jack already there...his chances of a regular game were minimal hence why they were ok about letting him leave

Yip that’s about the long & short of it.

Just want them gone & hit the reset button. 

I’ll not be watching Livi TV or any live stream. 

It was all fairly predictable unfortunately… to all but Cormack.

Im fairly certain he gave an interview when he signed and he was asked where he saw himself playing and he thought of himself mainly as a CM. Seems im not the only one. 

I remember Gerrard saying he thought his career was almost ruined by playing him at CH - but that would make sense if they thought he was being played out of position and they decided to let him leave when he made it clear he wanted to play CM but wasnt good enough for them in that position. 

I'll bow down to your superior knowledge - interesting if you can show any evidence that he wants to play CB. Not only player salaries you're an expert on it seems ?

Theres an interview with him in the Peenj from last September where he alludes to it

Going further back, when he first broke into the sevco side under Caixhina, the bold Pedro was quoted in the national press as saying that McCrorie wouldn't just be one of the best Centre backs to ever represent sevco, but also for the international side. 

Slippy G seemed to disagree strongly
