Match Thread St Mirren 3 - 2 Aberdeen

[Ten Caat]

You should have stayed away (the boogieman mk2)

You are like a swollen haemorrhoid. Irritating as fuck and best chopped out and thrown away in the clinical waste for incineration

significant mistakes costing significant goals consistently 

 

 

I would of thought this season Lewis’s mistakes have cost very few goals. I can’t remember many if at all any that came from his mistakes

Surely last week goes down to failing to stop May’s shot. I call that a mistake.

St Johnstones goal on Saturday would have been saved easily by Lewis a couple of seasons ago, the rate of his decline is staggering.

[Zander1903]

would help him to have settled defence in front of him 

[BonnieDon]

I little faith in us getting anything from this match. We badly needed Hedges and Watkins back. 

2-0 St Mirren (Main and McGrath)

It would help if the forwards were capable of putting the ball in the oppositions net.

I’d say blaming him for last weeks goal is pretty harsh. Was right in the bottom corner and took a wee deflection to go. Not many would of saved it

What? Jet offers no support at all to Ramsay. 

I only mean in the sense that he will often drift out wide right with him to play one twos. Which prevents the need for Ramsay’s to put in a diagonal ball earlier to front of box. Ramsay gets a little further forward with the ball when JET is out wide

If we can somehow find a win from somewhere tomorrow it sets us up for Celtic who, I think, are there for the taking right now.

[aberdeen1970]

Needs to change his formation otherwise I think we'll lose, probably by a single goal. 

We had a wee bit of a surprise factor at the start of the season but this current formation has been worked out easily by other teams already.

Think we will be in store for a very drab showing again and pressure will mount! Part of me thinks we will smash then but that's what I've hoped/thought for every game so far...

[WesthillWanderersFC]

I think lumping on under 2.5 goals is the best bet, surely?

Really? He looks nervous at corners and for set pieces. He is reliably good at bollocking our shite defenders but makes silly mistakes himself. 

He was stuck to the pitch for May's goal, getting down late for that one.

At times he has looked like the proverbial headless chicken, flapping at high balls or finding himself out of position.

There was a time he instilled a lot of confidence in me, but those days are gone.

[Ke1t]

We'll go at them like the desperate mongos we are.

If we score early I fancy a draw.

If we dont I fancy another defeat.

[Jackp]

Going in the hope it’s a win for us and a good performance but can’t see it, if we lose hopefully it’s the last time I see glass in the dugout, they like to play two up top in main and brophy who are awful strikers but can see them giving our defence a torrid time the way we are defending just now, not won in 7 games since hedges has not started( against raith ) and been injured since so it’s a no brainier to start him

woods

mccrorie Bates gallagher

ramsey brown longstaff mackenzie

hedges watkins

ramirez

 

 

[red kelly]

don't normally make a prediction but  what the hell, 2-3 to the  dons driven by embarressment,yet still lose 2 goals.
however ,should they lose with a whimper, then glass has got some real problems on his hands.
 it feels like a pivotal point  even this early in the  season .

Woods is not good enough to be Dons no.1 

Could you expand on that? What does it mean to be 'good enough for the Dons'...in any position. I've seen this written by a few different pasters and it has me baffled.

How many fucking times? Watkins is still injured.

Glass interview heavily indicating it'll be 433 whatever the team is.

4-3-3 or 4-3-1-2 is fine but dont think Ferguson wants to do the dirty work in a Midfield 3 which at times should be stepping into the spaces vacated by the wing backs and not blocking their runs.

Rather try Brown with 2 from Longstaff,McCrorie,Campbell.

If Ojo starts he should be removed from his position before the match starts. 

[RED_JOHN]

If Joe Lewis starts today then I predict another defeat. The defenders don’t trust him, Glass didn’t trust him with the captain’s role on the pitch and an alarming rate of fans are not trusting him. 
He was a good goalkeeper but nowadays looks nothing like that and has become a major weak link in our team. 
It’s the one position in the team that if changed would give the rest a warning no one is untouchable. If Woods is injured (honestly don’t know though) we should give Ritchie a chance. 
Lewis has looked weak against the likes of Curtis Main before so hopefully Glass shows he has the balls to be a decent boss.

But how many of the goals were directly from his mistakes. 
If a striker was one on one with him I’m still confident he saves it.

I recon he’s saved more of them this season than he has caused more goals by mistakes

Well Ritchie has signed for Huntly so he won’t be playing

You need to pay more attention.

He's been a fucking bombscare for nigh on 2 years now.
