But we weren't 3 or 4 up by half time. We were very wasteful in front of goal.

 

We were never out of sight in that game tonight despite dominating the game.

 

Until we finish off teams like we should have done tonight we can forget about winning the title

Aberdeen weren't in the game they had one chance in the first half which McKay-Steven hit straight at Fod and by the time we were 2-0 in the second half they had been reduced to shooting from long range. The last 10 mins Murty changed tactics to see the game out and also changed the personnel with Halliday the sitting midfielder thats what happened.

 

As far as wasteful in front of goal is concerned Windass had one shot saved on the line, one shot tipped over the bar in an excellent save by the keeper, won a penalty then got subbed. Morelos scored one missed a couple that he should have buried in the second half and came off pretty annoyed that he hadn't done better. We didn't have many more clear cut chances than that. We had a few that looked like they could have turned into chances but the player on the ball was either forced wide, covered by a defender or last ditch lunges/clearances put the ball out for corners etc. McCoist would often miss four maybe five score one or two from nine, ten possible chances. I'm much more concerned when we're not creating chances to be honest. We played well controlled the game and should have been two nothing up at half time. That didn't happen obviously but we did win the game two nothing and it could have been much worse for them as we made them look ordinary, they were garbage.

Pretty much agree aside from maybe they looked garbage because we were just too god for them? We had pace to burn in comparison to them which all on it's own made them look bad.

More tests to come, the dreaded Ross County in particular. 3 relatively comfortable points there might change my mind.

Wes in goal.

 

If that was a CL Final he'd easily be portrayed as the best keeper in the world, so he'll just have to accept for now, at least, he's the best keeper in the SPL.

 

A stunning display by the big man.

One report stated that he got a round of applause initiated by Murty in the dressing room .

And as if that's unusual when we play them or anybody at all for that matter. Straight off the top of my head this comes to mind. A foul that never was getting them a late winner.

 

And if we just once get a close or bad call in our favour then it's all a conspiracy.  Even before this latest match they were predicting that they would be getting bookings and red cards early doors from bias refereeing.  Then when that doesn't transpire it's all forgotten until prior to the next game when it will be repeated.

 

EDIT: Like how the new website still embeds the video when you set it to start at a specific time. The old one didn't.
