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

Did you mean Cowies run. It was him that ran deep into the Dons half on the break down the left wing while Roy cut diagonaly off to the right before slamming th ball home, just supertastical.

Aye, well done Accies, always good to get off to a flier. Saw bits of the game and they seemed to be well organised at the back, similar to our style once. Might just bring out a few extra fans for the novelty experience on both sides. Right eenuff, clash of the titans.

It is IE7 I am using, the one with the tabs for new windows. I do get that in the url bar. The bit I am talking about is for instance on your post #32 at the top of the post between these words Today, 05:57P ON THE OLD SITE DID IT NOT SAY WHICH THREAD YOU WERE REPLYING TO HERE Post # 32 Sorry, not very good at describing this. It's the heading at the top of individual posts.

well hurry up then.

OK, I don't see the headings other than the top post using IE8 I think. No headings either using fast reply but there is using add reply.

Admin, I notice that there is no heading on top of posts in threads. Not a big issue really, but when reading a long thread and about to post, I had to scroll back to the first page to see what the title of the thread is. Also when posts are now merged, there is no heading which would differentaiate which topic the posters were typing in at the time. They appear in chronological order I believe. Can headings be tacked on to each post??

Whilst taking nothing away from Andy Barrowman as he did very well and stuck away the opener in his first SPL game, I think even he would be astonished to note he has received the same amount of votes as Grantie in this poll. Good as he was, surely his contribution was not greater than Rossco, McBain, Munro, Black, Duncan or Imrie or maybe even Cowie or Hastings. I know we all have differing opinions, but come off it. Have admin checed to see if poll is just. My vote went to Duncan for the record, I thought he came on to a really great game and was'nt he fired up. But it was difficult to call as Grantie did everything as well.

He's going to be a sparky

:thumb04: :018: Did Mark McGhee really say this live on radio during yeterdays game ;) " If that penalty had rebounded out to the referee, he would have put it in the net himself." Dodgy decision apparently, must go and take a look online.

The highlights were fine, they showed that we scored two goals and they scored none. Just how I remembered it. It was a phnomenal run from Roy, from the edge of his own 6 yard box to spot that nobody was overlapping on the right and make the run diagonal, then finish with applomb from 18 yards, just fantastic, what a goal. And a neat reverse pass from Dougie Imrie, simply sublime.
