Sorry captain, we are going round in circles. He was allowed to run 40yds in on goals because Duff did make that mistake, end of story. Do I think Duff was at fault, yes. Do I blame him, yes. Should he play again , yes. whatever.

Duff did well enough to merit more games. But the point about nobody being behind him............we did not need anybody behind him, he was there, he was that man, he missed the ball completely, not caused by a physical challenge he simply missed the ball and as we had been attacking prior to that and he was the player mopping up nobody else was required............unfortunately he fresh aired and put Duncan and Hastings in touble. If we keep making comments about players not going forward we will never threaten the opposition goal. We had guys forward for a free kick or corner, but they hoofed the ball forward. Duff made an error simple as. Nobody died so we/he just have to learn from it and come back stronger.

But Ron, if you adhere to segregation for SPL games, then 2,350 could not get into the South Stand taking into account Accies only had around 120-150 max. Which leaves us with our hard core of around 3400 home fans for run of the mill home games, which were there. And, being a testimonial, there are always a few additions to the crowd figure (gudgies etc). So it would appear that the loyal faithful fans did turn up on Saturday, but the away support was akin to Motherwell and Kilmarnock, very poor indeed. To summarise, it's not such a good point after all. Mind you, the winker gives it away :thumb04: Did you really expect any more on saturday? And RIG has been singing the wrong words all these years

:thumb04: If you are good at canoodling, maybe Ladies Beach Volleyball is for you Or how about the Madison................I'm sure you could sneak in there amongst the chaos on yer pushbike unnoticed.

Bingo, scored an absolute scorcher of a volley in the legends game, Bobby and Brewster sprayed the ball around liike the Kaiser, Jimmy Calder made at least five sensational saves Billy Ferries showed all his old trickery and 10CC displayed his talents in the middle, Billy Urquhart has lost nothing.....................well done guys. Did I see Hercher as well, the man who started the ball rolling................

Wow................he is some size now. But you know what, he read everything and never wasted one ball out of defence. He looked as though he still had Viduka Wright and Fuller in his back pocket. Masterclass for Jamie Duff, (just don't eat this much at home kids)

or was it just smelly seamen

Our starting eleven was something like Mike Fraser Proctor***Bobby Mann***Jamie Duff***Jimmy-Jabbi Bazza***Bingham***Cowie***Roy(right foot)McBain Paul Ritchie***Paul Sheerin Roy McBain scored the first with a low right foot shot from the edge of the box. Mix up for second with an own goal passed into the net from the keepers right, Wood and Rory after they came on for twenty minutes in the second half and someone else...........oh aye Proctor poked home the fifth. Disappointingly, Barrowman missed two good chances, and Esson made two or three great saves. Dan Wagaluka played for ten minutes or so, looks quite tidy, small but tidy player. Wood took his goal well, and Rory knocked a free header back across the keeper into the net, so well done lads. And well done Barry, good crowd tonight despite the rain.

Lets hope the fans give him a night to remember, lots of great memories of Barry, he enjoyed himself the night we won the first division and his goal against Motherwell in the cup gets further out every time it's mentioned. We've got BARRY BARRY BARRY BARRY WILSON ON THE WING.............ON THE WING

Liverpool promised in the contract to take a minimum of 2 first team players to the game so it was understand by the caley end 2 firnge first-team players but infact they have just talen the reserve team I think I got the gist of that rant, you are not a happy bunny.

Yes, Zibi...............he was handed his chance and blew it big style. The difference with the Zibi comparison is that Zibi was well known for making bloopers big time. However, in his defence the ball was hit through the defenders legs which maybe gave him less vision of the ball and he let it squirm over the line. Duff on the other hand has nobody to blame but himself, not Duncan or Hastings or McGuire, or even Offiong and I am sure he knows it. He did pick himself up and performed reasonably well after it though and another game will do him no harm ................unless he repeats the error. Zibi di play well every week for the reserves and his distribution by hand was excellent.

Once again the boo boys berated Rory when he came on last Saturday. He will gain nothing from these actions and if anything you are only helping to erode his confidence. Grow up and get behind the player, you are not helping the cause by booing every time he appears...............leave it out.

Ho hum, I posted something which has disappeared on me. Anyway, it went something like this. Brewster will be in a no win situation with this one. Whoever plays next week will have a tough job, Colin Nish being the aerial threat from Hibs. If he drops Duff he may shatter his confidence. If he throws him straight back in we may have to take it on the chin if his inexperience costs us the game. The fans will be quick to turn on Brewster if it goes pear shaped. For what it's worth, I think he should keep Duff in the middle and take the risk that his job will not be on the line if he errs again. McGuire did play better than normal on Saturday but I did notice the ball headed into Corcorans path, if McGuire had left it Tokely would have cleared it away from the onrushing player. Maybe that was when captain Rossco burnt McGuires ears. On another theme whilst we are knocking McGuire (on Jamie's thread), Rory another player who gets a hard time was audibly booed by the wonderful section G support when he entered the fray..............sort it or shut up. I have been quick to criticise these players myself, but it has got to a point where we only see the errors now and not the positives they sometimes display. I'm off to put a thread on the Beni board.

The stadium is a brisk twenty minute walk from the nearest bar. The Innes bar which is generally a home bar. Across the road is the Portland bar, a Rangers stronghold I believe. The town centre is where most away fans go and Deeno's Sports bar seems the popular choice, maybe twenty five minutes Olympic Walking, straight back along the dual carriageway distributor road. There is parking at the stadium, a bone of contention normally as it sometimes takes ages to clear the car park and tonight will be a full house. Use google maps and you will see the route to the stadium from the town centre. enjoy.

Sorry CaleyD, there is nobody else to blame but Duff, he completely missed the ball which allowed Offiong to run through on goal. No blame attached to Duncan who was never going to be powerful enough to outmuscle the big lad and Hastings also had no part to play in it. I am not apportioning blame, merely stating fact. That said Duff did play no worse than some of our regular guys if you remove that blip. Unfortunately it did happen and it cost us the goal which won the game. Offiong still had work to do, but he is powerful with a bit of pace and a composed finish was all that was needed. Great to back Duff to the hilt, but that is where the buck stopped yesterday. Our ineptitude only added to the frustration of the whole day. Everyone including Duff and Offiong expected the defender to clear the ball or knock it into touch but he made the mistake and he shoulders the blame. I felt gutted for him, but thats life. He will come back a better player after these things. The man that never made a mistake has never been born.

I don't ever remember Paul Ritchie disappearing for a whole game. Shockerooney

Graeme Bayne scored for Dunfermline yesterday as they beat Perth 0-3. Bavidge scoring for Blue Loon Tooners in a 2-2 draw with Brechin. Prunty scored his second goal in two games for Ayr United. the flip side, Wyness played last ten minutes for Saints and failed to impress.

Got it, the perfect sport for Yngwie..............Yngling, if you know how to yngle you will be a true Olympic champion.

Imrie did play on the left deeper than a winger and was totally useless today, Barrowman was rubbish, Cowie was worse than rubbish, Duncan deserved to stay on the park as much as others unless he was carrying an injury. Mike Fraser can be absolved from any blame for this debacle........................it all happened in front of him.........or more appropriately did not happen in front of him. Hastings did one of his fekkk off back to Canada stunts today.....burst down the wing in a promising position and knocked the cross (haha) into the North Stand. McGuire seemed to adapt to the mentor role quite well and helped out Jamie Duff (blooper apart) and Rossco did a power of overlapping again in the second half. Cowie Imrie Duncan & McBain were a non event today and were joined by Barrowman in this exclusive non event club. Is that them all covered....... Black escapes total punishment because he is the most gifted player we possess. Rooney looked the most likely to trouble them, but insufficient backing saw to it that he never troubled the scorers.

I'm too gutted/ pissed to post a sensible reply to the numerous posts on this thread, but Wyness Legend, pick your toys up please, your marks are a disgrace and in no way represent what happened today. Yes it was extremely disappointing but come on. Duff 7.............There was only one person who's mistake swung the game, unfortunately it was Duff. Jamie did ok otherwise but to give him seven when Rossco was busting a gut to bolster the attack is ludicrous. Barrowman deserves his one point though, grim, Imrie as well, Cowie woeful, the list is endless................shocking performance from us and Accies deserved the points for shutting us out. MoM for us.......................as last week, really difficult, but for a different reason..........nobody stood out to be honest.........I will give it to McGuire who at least made the effort to console Duff and offer some words of encouragement, who knows what he said, but at least he was sympathetic to the cause. End product, was our worst display at home ever.

Move Dick inside and stick Jimmy-Jabbi at left back, piece of cake.

yes

half an hour.

in Dundee United defence, he wasnae there last night
