Even in 2020/21we were a chance at making the 8 five games out and capitulated. 2022 capitulated and lost our last 4, this year, 2nd premiership favourites, or close to, capitulated and lost 5 from the last 6.

At least, finally, we will be forced to play Binns, Lord, etc, rather than picking half fit, out of form players. We might actually find something we could have used week ago.

Amen to that. Yep, finally a few blokes from the Magoos will get a gig.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17

Apart from last year fails when it matters at the pointy end and why i just cant trust this club regardless how good we look at certain stages of the year. Beaten well by a team in the first few years of their rebuild says more then anything. And to be the outsider to them pre game is so frustrating as a long blues suffering supporter.
Only just beaten north in the last 6 weeks. Cant blame injuries for that. Just not good enough for long enough. List is way too slow and we need some ballsy big name changes in the off season to improve. Leaving things as they are will leave us again mid table in 2025.

Our list as it stands is not even close to getting it done folks. 
We can blame injuries and I'm not talking just today. If we get hammy after hammy we run out of legs by years end.

Injuries have been our issue for 5 years now. Every year bar one we have run out of fitness with 6 games to go. That has been the reoccurring theme.

This year, record hammys and repeat hammys to players. That **** is now finally gone. He has been the common denominator in those years.

Too many glass men. Will always take its toll and eventually drag a team down.
Reality always wins in the end.

Thank God that's over. A game seemingly tailor made for the Craig McRae windscreen wiper analogy - just wipe it away, forget about it and move on. I can't see what there is to review. On second thought, I can - for the last 3 quarters, everything that could go wrong, did go wrong. The End.

Good summary.

The only words that comes to mind right now. Destitute. Despair. Disaster.
Coming together is the beginning.
Keeping together is progress.
Working together is success.

Zero skill. Zero balls. Zero heart.

Absolutely pathetic.

You mean like the whole team getting around McGovern after he missed a gettable shot to win the game last week. Closed ranks. Win together, fail together. Etc.

So what does he do to repay the team? Gives a gobfull to a teammate who was apparently to blame for his own inability to spoil his opponent.

Disgraceful.

You won't be running out games and putting yourself in a winning position when you have a total of 49 interchanges for the game.

We were cooked before the injuries. We couldn't catch them and if we did we couldn't tackle them.
