  1. That's not true. He played away at Livi.
  2. Not even close to being goal of the season and even IF it was, we've seen with the McKenzie goal against United that it doesn't matter how good a goal is, the masses following the bigot brothers will vote for their players.

    His arm is where is should be. Yes it was every so slightly out from his body but it was still by his side, ball struck from point black range and it took a deflection onto the arm. Three reasons why you can't give that as a penalty although who knows in this day and age. Regardless, they scored from the resulting corner in that incident so it made little difference at the time.

    Probably because it was never ever a penalty kick?
  5. There's a similarity with Kennedy and Jones. The numbers perhaps aren't as high as other players in terms of goals or assists but when you have a player who can carry the ball 50 yards himself and win you free kicks and throw ins in makes a huge difference. Kennedy has an infinitely better end product that Jones ever did for us however.
  6. I have heard, that it's Stephen Robinson and that he was marked to leave St Mirren for them at the end of the season hence why Warnock brought in until then and no need for someone to "assess the squad" as he can do that comfortably where he is. Warnock leaving has sped up the process and now the chat is Aberdeen may be forced to pay a lot more than they expected to land him in the coming weeks. For me Alex Neil is the ideal candidate for them... but I was told the issue was the manager they were after was employed in the same league and wasn't a former employee.
  7. He was booked for running 70 yards with his team 3-1 up going into storage time to scream in the referees face. This was the moment Beaton decided to actually book him and not for the ten bookable mistimed tackles he had throughout the game. He reminds me of Scott Brown... just coasts through games protected by referees. Contrast that with Power or Pascali who were always booked for their first tackle. Beaton was atrocious yesterday... almost as bad as Findlay and Ndaba.
  8. Team selection and formation wrong from the start. Marley anonymous. Findlay and Ndaba doing their best to outdo each other with how abject a performance they can put in. An expensive and depressing day where once again the fans show up in numbers and are short changed by the players.
  9. Still got these two tickets available if anyone needs transport to Aberdeen on the day. Not looking for full value. Even £30 or so would do.
  10. I was probably in the minority but I was delighted St Mirren won in the manner they did last week. That defeat and losing two goals so late will be as damaging for their morale as anything they've experienced this season. I'd also say that we look infinitely fitter than most clubs this season so if it did go to extra time and with the options we have from the bench, I'd put us down as strong favourites in extra time. Either way it'll not go to penalties.
  11. I'm sorry, but KVV or Innes Cameron would "occupy defenders and create space". I'd argue if you're an opposition manager you would focus even more on denying KVV space rather than Vassell. He may be contributing, but he's not scoring enough goals and if you want to finish in 4th and make cup finals you need someone who scores more than 1 goal in 5 months in attack. Put it this way, if we persist with Vass, finish 5th and don't make Hampden, it'll have been a horrific piece of business by McInnes and the board... and a very costly one. We are talking about a guy with 29 goals in the league last season, not a mug. The equivalent of Boyd being benched for Paul Dalglish.
  12. His last league goal was 1st November in a defeat to St Johnstone. He scored once since, in the cup, against Dundee. Yet somehow with 1 league goal in 5 months, criticism of him is not justified. Incidentally, we are one of the lowest scorers in the league.
  13. It isn't so much that KVV has shown enough to start, it's more than Vass hasn't shown enough to remain in the team. Cameron contributed more than Vass when he came on, I agree with that point. The issue we have is our number 9 doesn't look remotely like scoring most weeks. No one is calling for Stewart to replace Marley because Watkins is contributing with goals and his all round play... I see absolutely zero in Kyle Vassell just now to suggest he would get a game with any club in the top league at the moment on current form. I also am fed up hearing about how our number 9 bullies defenders, I want him to score more than 5 league goals after 30 games... forget being really strong and pushing folk about. It isn't about scapegoats or whatever... I want Vass to be better than KVV because he is our player. I want him to be effective and our number 9 and club captain, but, currently, no one can make a case that he should be starting now. In fact I'd argue most folk would have him at #1 to be dropped from our current 11 that play most weeks. In addition the Donnelly/McKenzie argument doesn't work here as most folk, currently on form, believe he should be starting over Watson. Proof is in performances and results same as Watson was dropped for being poor for weeks. So why when people want Vass dropped do you suddenly move to the scapegoat argument? Why is Watson droppable but Vass is not when we have three strikers on the bench now? As i said to you at Rangers game, you're the Saint of lost causes. The time to dropp Vass was weeks ago and if we want a match fit KVV who will score probably more than Vass has for remainder of season then he needs to play games.
  14. On paper it's Stewart and KVV. However, Watkins has to play on current form. Incidentally when KVV and Stewart came on against Rangers, the interchange between the two with one touch passes looked incredible.
  15. And the team McInnes inherited was a lot lot worse than Clarkes. He's had to build a team from scratch from a lower position than Clarke ever had to. What he's achieved has been remarkable.
