Why is this? We often get more shots on goal but score with so few. That has been the case for a fair few seasons now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartan Army Par Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 (edited) Maybe we should start thinking about signing players that are going to win us football matches, rather than looking to see who might make us a profit. We have some good young players on 3 year deals but the experience around them are not good enough. Bene an exception.

Fifes Elite Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 Between the 2 games against rovers and the ayr game last week we dont really look better at scoring than the last time we were in the championship. I've not been impressed with O'halloren since he came in and Jakubiak looked lively but seems like a one trick pony so far. Once the rovers defence sussed him that was that. We really need to solve this goal scoring dillema. Either our midfield need to step up or our strikers need to start banging them in. It wasnt a bad performance. More frustrating we cant score Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deutsch Par Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 The biggest problem at the moment in my opinion is that both Wighton and Jakubiak look dreadfully short of confidence and we shouldn't be looking to McCann alone to dig out us out of a hole. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep the signing of Jakubiak is showing that the guy is simply not a goalscorer. Wighton is technically a very good footballer but has been like ten men with him up top. He just can get into a game. Don't think he's suited to being the lone striker. Chalmers is rapidly looking like the off the pace slow midfielder we had two years ago. Not getting all the time he had last year. O'Halloran is not offering much for a guy who's played at a high level previously. The experience is just not giving us much right now.

Superally Posted October 28, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 Three defeats for this team, The next game against Morton on Fri will be huge. This game will determine how good a manager McPake is in building up confidence in a team not used to losing. I wasn't at the game but I gather there was an improvement in performance and i'll take heart from that as the previous two games (Jags / Ayr) were poor. The growing injury situation is proving to be an utter nightmare and i don't think that helps either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al k Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 Poor recruitment bitting us on the arse, great we got Fisher, Otto and KRH but the past two windows have been awful. McGowan playing preseason was an absolute waste, there should be been others in getting tried out instead. O'Halloran hasn't been up to much, known for two seasons our midfield options are lacking and we can't score. Jakubiak I think will give us some creativity but again another player that's hardly scored double figures in two years. Theres a massive difference between league one and the championship. Lose next week and we are in trouble in my opinion, in the bottom two potentially. Then united the week after. All our own doing I'm afraid. On the plus only A few points between the teams but night and day from our last win when we beat Morton. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

da_no_1 Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 That was extremely harsh on us but teams that don't take chances tend to lose more than they win. Small consolation but we were much better today than the last 2 games (not saying much I know...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deutsch Par Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 Maybe a bit unfair to put so much on a younger player's shoulders but maybe we were a bit hasty loaning Taylor Sutherland out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wighton is our only proven scorer at this level, he's a good shout from the bench but as you say bit unfair. These were all players that could have had decent game time last season when it was in the bag. Now we have had them on the bench for the majority of this season with pressure being unfairly put on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
