We could be playing till 12 tonight and wouldn’t have scored in open play. Simple stuff couldn’t be done today such as a 5 yard pass to a teammate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastendtales Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 ****e comeback. We barely threatened and got lucky with that 2nd penalty. Absolutely ****e stuff from us. Barely any chances created at 2 down and Clyde should have been out of sight. If Mahon and Mcdonald never play for us again, I'll be content. Abysmal stuff from them both.

kelty_par Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 Thought Ritchie-Hosler looked good when came on and looked like the only player who knew how to move off the ball. Pedestrian stuff again today. Few signings are badly needed in January 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 Dreadful performance, again. Which side are top of the league - impossible to tell. We are so slow in build up - ball speed in passing is about 4 mph. No width , we dont have a single player capable of taking a man on and beating him. We were holding on the last 5 mins - Clyde looked much likelier to grab a winner. Pass marks to Bene and Richie- Hosier. But dear oh dear Chalmers, Mochrie, Fisher , Edwards Wighton Todorov Macdonald and Mahon all contributed zilch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelty_par Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 Can only hope Hamilton isn’t out for long as midfield is absolutely non existent without him. And he was getting dropped for some of them not long ago 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosythpar Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 Alan Main and the physio have both left the club allegedly. Very poor performance today and wonder if that has had an affect on the players? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number Eleven Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 That was a tough watch. We gave away 2 cheap goals and laboured in attack. The biggest positive is for hat they kept grinding away. Kane Richie-Tosler showed up some more experienced team mates with his second half performance. Disappointing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymie Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 Our lack of creativity shows more at home as generally, teams set up to frustrate. Lots of problems today, aside from the two goals we gave away. Why are we so slow in our build up during the first half of games ? We spent really have anyone other than Mochrie and Chalmers who can play a vertical pass at times. The movement of our two strikers leaves a lot to be desired. Ok, crosses were by and large poor, but the don’t move to the ball, make front or far post runs or drag defenders out of position. Todd was anonymous today. Aside from a shot first half, he didn’t get beyond the front two at any time. Mahon has no chance of getting a game at Motherwell based on that 45 mins. Macdonald struggles when he plays high up the pitch. Not really his fault. Edwards as bad as I have seen him this season. Comrie did ok defensively. Fisher was ok but guilty of losing cheap possession which was a problem for the team generally and meant we were never a ale to sustain any pressure. We need a bit of quality in January or fear we will be caught by the six fingered lot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keepers were always doing extra training at Pitreavie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we should really be beating teams like this, two 2-2 draws with the bottom teams at home isn't really a celebration tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piracy Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 Brutal 1st half being honest. Better 2nd half obviously. Not acceptable though. Bad day at the office. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad day at the office. It's funny, I actually thought we played better in the first half, made more chances. Second half was more pedestrian from us, especially with Clyde sitting back, but we got the goals in the end. Strange match. Frustrating after last week's great result, but there it is. Thought we were a little lucky to get the second penalty, but then Clyde were a little lucky that the first goal stood, and then that we gave them the chance to make it 2-0 through slack play. So it goes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superally Posted November 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 Far too complacent in the first half and frustrating after last weeks win at Falkirk. some of the performances from the players was lackadaisical and unacceptable. Mahon and McDonald were deservedly hooked but it easily could have been others. Far too often players were being caught out on the ball, poor passing and little movement. Players guilty of not tracking back. I think there was a feeling that the players just needed to turn up and collect the 3pts. Edwards just didnt look anywhere near himself and I wonder he was still carrying the reported back injury. I can only guess that Hamilton was injured as well. I find it disappointing to hear reports that Alan Main (Goal keeper coach) and the Physio have left the club. I think Mehmet has been hugely improved this season and you would have to consider that Main was part of that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Secure Par Posted November 12, 2022 Report Share Posted November 12, 2022 (edited) Teams coming to East End will just sit back tight just like we did at Falkirk and counter. imo it was just one of those games where Clyde had 2 shots and scored 2. But 2-0 down at half time and get back to 2-2 earning a point shows there is a good team there in this league. McPake has done a great job as he had to take a lot of players on with another year on their contracts. I believe we will win the league then a mass clearout for next season and that when we will see McPakes own team.
