At least the lad has said sorry I suppose ... 

dont see sorry written anywhere and the people replying to him on twitter telling him how much they love him get a grip he may have cost us a play off place he deserves to feel bad he needs punishing or this behaviour will continue

 

ICT fans when John Baird makes a mistake:



ICT fans when Mulraney gets two ridiculous red yellow cards inside two minutes and costs us the game:

2:33 for the two yellow cards. 6:15 for our goal.

 

Pysh day at the office??  We started quite well without causing any damage, Lost the plot after the wee man had a fecking brainstorm, but too many players were awful.. really awful.

Trafford was terrible, Mackay just cannot pass a ball, Chalmers gave away the first pen, has the pace of a tortoise and is about as dangerous to the opposition as a plastic bath duck, Seedorf also gave away a pen which was on the cards as he spent the day diving into tackles.

I' m not going to mention Baird.

Warren lost a high ball (again) letting it bounce 3 times before letting the forward Nick the ball to set up their third. 

Ridgers was pretty safe and had no chance with goals.

***** day weather wise too, good few beers in Edinburgh later helped  ?

I fail to see how trying to pick him up is wrong? Do you never make mistakes at work? 

 

However our discipline is shocking and needs sorted pronto

course i do we all do but i would not behave by kicking water bottles over and destroying a dressing room that kind of behaviour is unacceptable and needs addressing and had he apologised genuinely i would have tried to pick him up but he has not actually said Sorry so deserves everything that comes to him start by making him pay for repairs to Falkirk  dressing room

 

Highlight was Mackay goal. Two youngsters combine with the finish poor Billy or Bairdy can only dream about.

Im sure it will be dealt with internally as it should be. I just see no need for a witchhunt by fans 

It's definatley time to use the youngsters some more and give them a chance that goal by McKay was a Brilliant finish after an even better pass from midfield.

Apologies for the audio quality...

 

Definatley not a happy bunny and I hope robbo does give the youngsters a chance.

Well said Robbo. Spot on assessment and sentiments as usual

its not a witchhunt its an opinion what i thought the Forum was for

Great stuff, Robbo, very well said. If the players can't respond to that kind of motivational talk, they should be doing something else.

I might be wrong here, but was there not a discipline issue the last time Robbo was manager?

I remember at the season ticket members meeting that Robbo said that indiscipline would not be tolerated by the club, and that even the youth teams had been told not to talk back to the officials or pick up silly bookings, so what has happened? Are the club not fining them enough? Or do players need to fight their way back into the team instead of walking back in when the suspension is over?

I didnt say you were not allowed an opinion. I just dont agree with this one thats all. 

It's hardly a witch hunt. It's deserved flak for two minutes of utter idiocy that cost us the game. There's no glossing over that.

Edited January 28, 20187 yr by RiG

Mckay's goal was a more composed finish than any of the rest of the team this season.  He deserves to get more team time on this sort of showing.

As for discipline, the appalling record of 8 sending offs speaks for its self.  The red cards and stupid bookings must stop or we will continue to drops points as we did on Saturday.  Robbo, the buck stops with you - get it sorted.

Exactly this.  Some of the replies to his tweet from the happy clappers are nauseating.  I honestly think some fans would the defend the players for absolutely anything.

Yes Nalifts I agree but Robbo has to sort out the discipline issue!

I can't argue with any of Robbo's comments, just hope he and the players can now deliver on it!

I can't go on Tuesday as working, but hopefully we get a great result then and against United next weekend.

Incredibly we are still close to the play offs, although others have games in hand, but it is within our own control if we can get a grip of the discipline and get a winning run going.

As for Mulraney, that was a disgraceful few minutes..... No one can defend him.
