Should Hughes be SACKED?
Anyone wanting to play like Barcelona should be encouraged and with our squad I see no reason why a quick passing, high pressing tiki-taka strategy shouldn't work quite well. All we really need is for the passes to be quicker, movement to be a bit better and a keeper who is confident passing the ball.

Should Hughes be SACKED?
Also not renewing a season ticket after a few losses. You can't have been supporting the club very long if the thought of losing will turn you away.

Should Hughes be SACKED?
To be fair the games we have been losing have been against good sides and we have only been a goal or two away from winning most. With a bit of time for the defence to regain confidence I see no reason why we shouldn't start winning again. Losing to the team who are currently second with a depleted and tired squad is hardly unacceptable like most seen to think. I also have no problem with Hughes experimenting with the side as tbh Europe was never happening and it's good to see Christie and Polworth getting a bit of experience.

What now?
I sometimes don't agree with yogi but he always comes across very well and seems like a good guy. The abuse aimed at him and Polworth in particular is ridiculous in my opinion.

We Gave It A Right Good Go
I actualy agree a lot with Dougal. I feel like Aberdeen are no Barcelona and especially with no Pawlett and Hayes we shouldn't have feared taking the game to them and really going to try and score goals. To be fair we stopped Aberdeen from creating and the players all played their role well. Hopefully we learn a few lessons before next years treble!

Inverness CT -V- Dundee Utd
Absolute crap. Why does Foran now start up front? It took Butcher about 5 years to find our best formation and players best roles but that was obviously wrong? Our discipline is also pretty bad at the moment and we could do with less stupid challenges. Also losing one game 5-0 in this league/cups is terrible, two in a row is unacceptable. Can only get better I suppose.

Hearts -V- I.C.T.
What a game! The greatest comeback I think I've ever witnessed from us. We were by far the better side before Warren's harsh red and apart from the two goals hearts didn't threaten and we still probably edged it with 10 men. I think the Meeking's decision was probably the right one as he was going for the man not the ball. Coming back from that though was amazing and all the players were brilliant in extra time and it was great to see so many good penalties! What a win.

Coverage of County game
We were very poor again. County were winning every 50/50 ball and our play was breaking up far too easily. We really miss Foran. We no longer look dangerous goin forward and it would be nice if we could stop the long balls up top because nothing is coming from them. Raven should definitely be on the right and Shinnie on the left or even in central midfield. Terrible performance.

Inverness CT -V- Aberdeen
First half was the worst I've witnessed in years. None of the players even looked interested. The second half was very good but I don't see why the team needed a potential embarrassment to get going.

The new manager thread
At least it's not Brewster again. Would have preferred Hartley but will support Hughes the same.

Kevin MacDonald would be better than Levein and co.

Butcher offski?
Really don't see why he would go to hibs having turned down Barnsley.
