Partick Thistle Friday night

[RiG]

There is absolutely no progression through this team. Duffy or Ram get the ball at the back and stride forward but Carson and Welsh are nowhere to be found to take the ball from them or make themselves available to create some space. So Duffy and Ram end up dinking or hoofing the ball forward in the vague direction of Mckay but most of the time it goes to Sneddon. It's repetitive garbage and absolutely mind boggling how Dodds hasn't done something to address this. I think we've had one shot in the first half. Pathetic.

Barrett 2 Caley Thistle 0 - where are my boots - and if we have so many promising kids why is the bench half empty - this could be my vote for the worst ICT performance that I have ever witnessed

Where are they both supposed to be playing? From the stand both are NOT playing midfield roles.

It has all became way to predictable these days. A lot of talking ending in the same - no points and a steady descent down the league. The table don't lie...

I got a ticking off recently for saying this is the worst ever ICT team. 

I standby that, with the addition of the worst ever manager/ coach or whatever he is!!

From watching on the livestream I am guessing they are part of the midfield 3 with Hyde (although he might be pushed up slightly) but I am not sure.

I'm done with this team until our WORST EVER MANAGER is gone because I DON'T ACCEPT this and nor should Mr Gardiner. 

Dudds HAS TO GO TONIGHT and get Esson in as caretaker for the rest of the season!

[No Shin Guards]

Imagine being reduced to keeping an eye on Cove v Hamilton so that we can hold on to 7th place.

Time up for Dodds. 

[Robert]

Doran on at half time for Boyd.

As things stand, we are 7 points off the promotion play offs and 9 off the relegation play off.

Sadly I don’t see us closing the gap at the top any time soon and we are more likely to get dragged into the relegation fight. 

[Robert]

What’s on tv? Must be better than watching this. 3 down. Once again too easy for Partick.

4-0. Too easy again.

Not the first sub standard verging on embarrassing performance this season. How long does Dodds get…… Four - Nil and we are all over the place. Enough !!!!!!!

[RiG]

F'ck off Dodds.

[No Shin Guards]

4th goal was schoolboy stuff. What a joke. Give us all all an early Christmas present and get Dodds out the door. If he has any decency he'll resign!!!!!

[KirkieRobRoy]

Really glad I've got this filthy cold or we'd be there watching this mince in the Maryhill Rain.

[RiG]

Hard to think of a worse performance in recent seasons than this piping hot garbage.

5-1 is embarrassing, and now down to 10 men. Something is beyond wrong. It can’t all be blamed on injury and bad luck, surely it is managements job to manage and motivate ???? That’s what’s lacking

[RiG]

The players stopped playing for the manager a long time ago.

[caley100]

Can't wait to hear Dudds take on this shyte!

 

[No Shin Guards]

Sad fact is I'm not even that upset as I was expecting a defeat. Don't see us scoring much, let alone getting anything from anyone just now. 

Scottish Cup home game, maybe put out half a dozen deck chairs as that's about all that'll be going. 

[Robert]

I really feel sorry for anyone who travelled down to Glasgow tonight.

Partick have battered us and looked like they are in a low gear.

We’ve never looked like creating anything. It’s all too predictable. Are some players going through the motions, playing an easy pass but not doing the creative stuff they should be doing? Have Dodds and the backroom staff lost the players?

The lack of news on injured players is a concern. How long are MacGregor, Allardice and Samuels to be out for? We were never told they had long term injuries (as far as I know).

Where do we go from here? It’s hard to see anything for us this season based on the last couple of months.

I’m not one to clamour for a Manager’s head but I really do think change is needed. Even when we were winning games we were unconvincing. This squad should be doing better than it is.

Talk on another thread about being at risk of administration is a major concern. We were always well run financially, living in it close to our means. Things are wrong on and off the pitch.

Time for the CEO to step up and outline the plans for the rest of this season and for next season.

Let’s get back on topic, painful though that is!!

[razor]

If you or the moderators on this site think it is appropriate to bring up a totally irrelevant court case on a topic featured Partick v ICT where we all should be discussing a disappointing result and our slipping down the table then it’s a sad. But certainly in keeping with your incessant vitriol.
