Buzz buzz buzz. Billy Mckay starts. Is he any good?

Could be a 442 with Anier up front as well.

No Aaron Doran, not even on the bench. Is he carrying an injury? 

D'Acol opens the scoring for Accies :(

FFS

Yet another early goal conceded.  I dread to think how many we've conceded in the opening 15mins this season.

Disaster.

Well be level soon when we can get an opportunity for our training ground move

What a massive change of tactics from Richie. A lot of players who should know each other so well. Let's just hope that the ill are better and the unplaced fit. We can't afford to drop any further even if there is some hope for the future.

Fan influenced ?

And from a set piece too. Criminal. 

Another defensive shambles from a set price. What chance have we got ????????

Utterly paceless midfield. Vigurs, Tansey, Draper, Polworth doesn't give us the option of the quick break. We'll be restricted to long shells up to Anier and Mckay with no support. Not great.

And now Tansey misses a penalty. Something tells me it's not going to be our day.

Vigurs booked for his 900th lazy cheap foul of the match.  At least he's contributed something I suppose.

Help!!! I am in Ecuador. What is going on? Is that THE Billy M???????? Get in there boy!!! 

waving bye bye to the SPL right and fast here. Show some fight!

The Old Boys Club ?  And look at the potential width and pace on the bench. Richie has to stop the "playing the old guard" nonsense, dump Vigurs and Tansey, play Draper and Polworth centrally and gamble on the yoof out wide. Presume Doran and the Walrus have the virus ?

1-0 down at half time. We are rancid although thankfully Accies don't sound much better. Our only effort on target was the penalty.  

Big team talk coming up for Richie-45mins to save our season.

Followed in to the book by Tansey.

Yer Walrus is gone Johndo.

Walrus is off to a different beach Johndo!    With that wee shyte Crawford off we maybe have more of a chance in the second half - and boy do we need it!

The Doumb has left the building

The walrus is yet another Foran faux-pas. Why persevere playing him and up front and on his own. The large majority of us never, ever rated the bumbler. And now we jettison him (albeit thankfully) abruptly. fFS.

2-0

Edited January 31, 20178 yr by Belfast Brigade

2-0 Accies

OFW at fault apparently

Hamilton have been down there for season after season, they know how to fight and battle - we dont. Its an express to relegation.

What on earth is being said in the dressing room pre match and at half time?  Our players sleepwalk through the first chunk of each half every week.
