Looks like Raven at left back, Laing and Warren in the middle and Mackay on right. Not many other options tbh.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

One difference from Rangers game. We are playing a high line and pressing but our defence is sitting back and that is leaving one hell of a gulf. 

[Yngwie]

Glad to see McNaughton is fit enough to make the bench. 

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Foran swops McKay and Raven. Not sure why as the big problem is Tierney coming from deep.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

20th minute and a wee deflection gives wee Billy a half chance. And difference was that we played it forward on the ground. Cole and Billy are not target men 

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Put a bet on fer a Tansey yellow card. Again suggestion that FOW is not 100% fit as he is very slow at coming out. We are parking the bus but have been let down by the last pass / touch on the counter.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Raven is man to man on Sinclair. Don't think I have ever seen us do that before. Well he may be slow coming out is FOW. We need to keep more possession.

[The Long Man]

Damn, just as I thought we would go in at half time with a healthy 0-0.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Quality goal by Sinclair and at the worst possible time. May be harsh but Gary Warren could have thrown himself more at the final strike.

[Scotty]

Anything from this game is a bonus but overall not too unhappy how we are playing. good goal ... unlike the cup mauling we got from them

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

45 to go Scotty and Rodgers & Co want to prove a point and hammer us. The next 15 minutes are crucial. 

[Scotty]

W T F !!!!!

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Well that is going to do FOW's confidence a boost !! And it was from our kick off. We didn't even last 15 Feckin seconds.

[+Hiro]

That's diabolical. After such a positive 1st half that's killed the game completely. Why did we pass the ball all the way back to OFW from kick off anyway?

[Belfast Brigade]

Amateur from OFW. Add that to his long list of mistakes for this season. Thought he was starting to turn a corner too

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

Ravens pass to Warren was short and Dembele almost intercepted. Then Warren stroke it at the goal and on FOW's right foot - not wide and to his left. And then the classic sclaff. 

[Belfast Brigade]

Defender's and keeper have been hesitant all game and that sums it up. Team look scared out there at times 

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

One word - Toiling. Vigurs fer Cole means defend with less protection. That one does not make any sense.

[IMMORTAL HOWDEN ENDER]

FOW fecks another one up. Great strike but FOW's positioning was AWFUL. This could be 6 again !! 

[+Hiro]

And another OFW mistake.   I've never seen such a streaky keeper. Excellent against Hearts and Rangers, chucking them in tonight.

[kencar]

Dodgy keeper

[cif73]

How bad is OFW at free kicks ... in fact how bad is OFW.

[+Hiro]

Don't think we've done too badly once you take the keeper mistakes out of it.  Our issue is the chronic lack of pace which means that when we win the ball back we're unable to break and capitalise.

[PerfICT]

All the hard work thrown away with 2 shockers. Make that 3....
