I think Robbo would jump at the job, he still has a great deal of affection for the club, and I know for a fact the players have a great deal of respect for him

Bayne got man of the match on Sat with the comment, great target man

I would hope this is not the case, but whatever the reason dont think he has deserved to be dropped due to his performance

Brilliant news, a real star in the making :018: :thumb04:

I would agree with that

I believe he could easily last a full ninety. I dont think you can expect him to jump straight into the team and last the ninety but after a few starts I am sure he could build up to it

I think his shoulder is the problem Alex, plus even though he probably still trains you need match fitness and that is something he obviously doesnt have at the moment

while I agree we will not go down this season, they way we are playing will have an impact on the crowds and thus the finances, making it more difficult to improve the squad and if we dont continually improve one season we will not have the luxury of a Hamilton or Gretna

Maybe if we could free up some wages from those at the club with big salaries who are not on the footballing side we might have more money to spend improving the playing side

While he was brilliant for us , I think we were lucky with him as he has had problems with injuries wherever he has been, would we bo so lucky with him if we took him back, a bit of a gamble I think.

What worries me most is I thought our poor home form was down tactics, playing 1 up front and no real support to the forwards, well yesterday we played 2 up front and it still didnt work. Maybe the strikers need a run of games to gel, although I wasnt at the game those that were said Barrowman just isnt up to it, so that leaves up with Woods and Rooney. I like the look of Rooney and while I think that Woods has potential I dont think he is the answer yet. This transfer window is one of the most crucial the club have ever faced both in terms of the players we have to bring in and the ones we have to keep. Its getting closer and Black and Cowie are still not tied up. Get this wrong and we could be in real trouble. I wonder what those in charge of getting players tied down to new contracts are actually doing as there doesnt appear to be much progress on that front.

Eh? How can netting a 6 figure sum for a player who was all but paid for during his time here by additional investment put in by Savage possibly be the reason we had no money to bring anyone in? Did we have the money in time? Can we spend it bearing in mind there's a possible court case pending? I think part of our problems could be easily rectified....................Brewster get your boots on Alex the club received the cash from the Marius transfer when there was still a month of the transfer window to go, and even with the cash Marius is owed it is still a 6 figure sum.

oh well only the 1 point

Totally agree. I think Barrowman in particular is the type of player who needs to get a run of games under his belt to get the best out of him Yes that is true but there is another factor, whoever is playing up front needs service or they will never perform as they should. On Wed it was impossible to judge how well Wood played as he was so isolated, I think that there is a good chance he will be dropped on Sat but this is not down to him, Rooney and Barrowman did ok when they came on but that was due to the change in the system, if either of them has to play Woods role in the first half I dont think they would have done any better. Until we get the system right and give the lads up front some service none of them will perform as well as they could

while that is also my gut feeling we dont know for sure, Barrowman could be the best prospect but I dont think he has had a run to prove that as yet

.....and then again if Barry had scored in the last minute, we'd have won ! Laws of physics.............for every negative ion there is a positive one. yep it is a game of ifs and buts , the only thing that gets points on the board are the chances that do go in

I am not so sure about that even players like Gerrard struggle when they are played out of position for England,

IHE says thank **** for that

I have a feeling he will survive and I cant see the board sacking him unless we are cast adrift at the bottom

I noticed it also but not sure if this is a normal thing and by that I mean from players at other clubs towards their manager. I doubt if any of the Falkirk players would react to Yogi though, he would probably run on the pitch and clock them :thumb04:

I think left back has turned into a real problem position for us, Hastings has been terrible, actually terrible doesnt even describe Weds performance and how he wasnt hooked at half time baffles me. Djebi-Zadi is obviously not in the plans, which has obviously been a complete waste of a salary. I think Roy could well be the answer but I have a feeling Brew will persist with Hastings or thinks Byrne could be the answer

Although I did give Tokley some marks on the POTY, it was difficult who else to pick, I thought he was very much a mixed bag last night, at times good and at times all over the place.

Also agree with CD. Impossible to say what the best partnership is as these things take time to develop and whoever it turns out to be needs a run in the team playing together, understanding each others pros and cons, of course most of all they need service and it would be nice to see some width in the team giving them that service. At the moment I think Rooney and Woods both have potential but I am still a little bit unsure on Barrowman, but then again if he was given a run of games it could make a difference.

In defence of Brew I was sitting fairly close to the dug out and he has quite vocal to the players

Alex, yes apparently so, I will tell it as I see it and that first half was drivel, if as I hope we beat Hearts on Sat with a good performance I will be happy to praise
