One positive amongst all the other negative stuff going on today is that young Mitchel Frame looks a good buy which hopefully addresses one of our problem positions. Only slight negative and a bit tongue in cheek is I hope Jimmy plays him since he’s not Scandinavian!! πŸ€žπŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ή

Just went online at one minute past 5 and there was only 86 tickets left for sale. Supporters clubs & freebies for the club must get the vast majority of them but never the less not moaning as did at least get one which is lot more than others because of such poor allocation 🀬

Really disappointed if Emslie is allowed to leave our club as he appears to be one of the outstanding youngsters we have so this does not send out a strong signal to other’s that we are the type of club to give them a chance. Who’s next and what is long term plan for youth? Buy them in??

Finally got round to posting to say that was brilliant with absolutely everyone playing their part in a gutsy performance finished off with brilliant penalties & excellent goalkeeper saving penalties. Will also admit thoroughly enjoyed my humble pie for lack of faith beforehand.

That clown Robertson bottled it there Idah should have been booked for the foul and then been booked again for incident with Shinnie which he was booked for!! They should be down to 10 men.

What was interesting for me was that Derek Rae @raecomm.bsky.social who I’ve a lot of respect for, was very complimentary of him and said that some teams in Germany were interested so thought it was a good appointment. Having seen him though I wonder if game here suits him like you say.

Only 5 points better off than last season as well after spending so much money that clubs above us and just below us don’t have yet it’s a success!! Only thing that can save this season is a win next week which I just canny see. Even after game interviews with Thelin he seems β€œlost” for explanation.

A lot to do with the start we had when Thelin tactics took everyone by surprise but once they sussed us it was all downhill from there and I’m not sure one or two new players for next season going to make enough improvement to save him eventually. Hope I’m wrong but can’t see it.

Been at every cup final since 1970 & never dreaded one as much as next week. Always thought we had one player that could do something special for us but currently not a hope. Not sure how you could define this season as a success just because we qualified for Europe or top 6 & got humped in a semi.

Sums us up Ambrose comes on as a sub when we need a goal!! What a farce. Even the fans around me were looking at each other in shock.

There’s no doubt unless we get in a load of new players before next season & Thelin shows some flexibility we’re in danger of finishing in the bottom 6 again & even worse in a relegation battle. Almost everyone sussed us out since opening months of this season.

Doesn’t mean to say it’s not their reserve team because there’s probably only one in the starting 11 that’ll play from the start of the cup final.

14.05.2025 19:50 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

We are being schooled by their reserve team. It’s embarrassing and we’ve still 10 minutes of first half to go. I know there’s 2nd half to go but even if we were to improve how can we be so poor for so long??

Have concerns some are going back. One of the biggest is Devlin who looks nothing like he was last season when he was one of our best defenders and marauding up and down the wing. Also seriously concerned at the lack of game time for our youngsters who can’t be as bad as some Thelin persists with.

They haven’t won or scored in their last 7 home games enter us and they score at least 3 and win their first game. Shows where we are our player of the year been sub more than started and our young player of the year scores wonder goal to win it!! 42 years today as well!!

This is embarrassing. Hard to see how we intended trying to win this game playing like this and what’s even worse with the players we have. Lack of desire and passion which happens all too often. Passion happens during a game not after it acknowledging the fans!!

That was pathetic from 2 poor teams. Had to believe that we are playing to try and get 3rd place. Dabbagh looks like a penalty box player but nobody playing to supply him. Big summer coming along for us in the transfer market as too many players not good enough.

Seriously disappointed in @balbirnie-house.bsky.social Hotel for ruining 51st wedding anniversary meal after accepting making error with reservation & only letting us know morning of it. Replacements offered even poorer. Pathetic service for business that prides itself on customer service.

Pathetic performance which Jimmy has got to take a major part of the blame for. Wrong team & too many players hiding or not knowing what they were doing. Easy to say think about early part of season but Hibs have had to recover from really bad start. We were miles ahead of them

03.05.2025 16:00 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Really concerns me that Jimmy continually shows he has his favourites that get treated differently from others. Why Clarkson taken off rather than Palaversa doesn’t make sense to me although he’s not the only one that’s poor today by a long way.

03.05.2025 15:31 β€” πŸ‘ 2    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Yet again Jimmy seems to be playing players in positions they’re not comfortable in or don’t understand. Not sure why he persists with Okells as we just seem weaker when he plays. Shady Mo dangerous going forward but doesn’t help Devlin at all. Changes at halftime needed.

03.05.2025 14:59 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Start with the negative & that’s Shady Mo who has been terrible going forward & not covering the left back when he goes forward. Concern at set plays as we look vulnerable. Positives have been Topi who is flying & well backed up by Shinnie & winning the ball back.

Main person to blame for that is the manager as I just don’t understand why he subbed the 2 wingers who were causing real problems and the subs, apart from Devlin, did nothing. Players that also missed sitters, almost 5 of them slightly less but not much.

How many chances do we want which could come back to bite us if we don’t take some quick? Odd why Morris and Keskinen off!!

Brilliant to see the football boots with the laces wrapped around them. Remember it well when boots weighed a β€œton”.

Regardless of who you support what both these Scottish games on tv today have shown is we have a much better product than the deals we have with Sky and Premier Sports. Just shows how those pathetic administrators are letting our game down so much. @spflofficial.bsky.social

Really pathetic with far too many players back to where we were during the long run of draws and losses. Top 6 is at risk so Motherwell game in 2 weeks time is massive because if we lose that one we could be in trouble. I think we’ll drop to 5th tomorrow!!
