Glad to get the win but that was a mediocre performance.  

 

Improvement needed all over the pitch.

We lack a killer instinct, have been for a while now

[CammyF 6,870]

Acht, sloppy performance but ultimately another victory which was really never in doubt. 

 

2nd half better than the 1st - Kent, Alfie and Fashion looked far more effective in 2nd half. 

 

Just need to eradicate the sloppy defending.

The emerging form and gradual return to fitness of Morelos is the main (only?) positive I’m taking from that.

Hahaha  - yeah, thats what we're doing........ I'm amazed we've scored 3 goals passing  pointlessly about the half way line

 

We've been playing a LOT of trash football throughout and almost conceded a late third had Lafferty's leg been as accurate as  Wright's. None of the goals can paper over another mediocre performance ... and far too much pointless ball kicking.

3 points, tick. However, embarrassing for the most part, especially the defence. Hung on against 10 men from bottom of the league team. McCrorie must be asking himself, it's now or never. Morelos, Sakala and Kent thankfully on form tonight. 

[BlackSocksRedTops 3,493]

Another win. Another 3 pts. I'll take that by any means possible on that truly horrible surface.

 

Can we please assign that Bobby Sands garbage to the past. Its fleckin embarrassing. Sung by "supporters" who probably know nothing about him and weren't even born when he was here.

Tonight should see the end of McLaughlin tbh. Just doesn’t have it for me. Haste ye back Yilmaz. Beale should have asked Santa for a midfield. When was the last time Tav had a good game?

Really? 

 

I agree the gradual return of "our Alfie" is a huge positive, I thought Kent played well 2nd half, as did Fashion Jnr. 

 

3 very good goals - all well worked and well taken (eventually when talking about Kents lol).

 

2nd half Kamara and Lundstram pushed 10-15 yards further forward and allowed us to build quicker and more effectively.

 

After we equalised I don't think us getting a positive result was in any doubt. 

 

Hardly a perfect performance but a win that was never in doubt and should have been more emphatic.

If your auntie had baws she'd be your uncle.
