    A banner for the next home game

    Simply saying:
    4-4-2
    Smith
    McCormack Bamba Hanlon Murray
    Wotherspoon Miller McBride Galbraith
    Stokes Riordan
    4-3-3 can GTF

    Would get the feelings across (thats only my preffered team adapt as necessary)

    I'd prefer "IMPOSTERS"

    Save money.... just go with..

    4-4-3 GTF and also "They've given me everything since I came to the club -GTF"...

    What's so ironic about that last statement is at the moment they are giving Yogi SFA... and I don't mean the Scottish Football Association..!

    We should ask the Aberdeen fans if we can borrow their 'bottlers' banner they came to ER with one season

    Yes, and can I suggest an Open Letter, or indeed the formation of a fans pressure group. Hopefully this will lead to a white knight (toap businessman likesay) taking over the club and buying us yon Scottish Cup.

    I'm really this desperate.

    How about ''Wage Thieves'' either that or we could hand them masks, they may prefer stealing from us wearing one. Dick Turpin did.

    Careful now!

    The "I never boo or criticise the players" brigade will be in shortly!

  14. #13
    How do you get these massive things made though?

    I'd just go for "wage thieves" as well

    Can this be organized?

    4-3-3, and any other formation debate, has absolutely nothing to do with our sudden and total collapse since the rangers game.

    But what did cause it? ****ed if i know

    I thought our spirit and self belief died on the Ibrox pitch that day. Confidence is everything and our team just doesn't have it.
    Every gimmick hungry yob,
    Digging gold from rock and roll
    Grabs the mic to tell us,
    He'll die before he's sold.

    Teams have found us out.... lack of width...

    Ultimately the poor run has led to lack of confidence, inconsistency in team selection etc etc.. I could go on...

    Any team with width have absolutely pummelled us... earlier in the season our full backs Murray and Wotherspoon where up and down the line, pressuring the opposition full back... that.. sadly is a distant memory...

    Canny believe people still think a switch of formation is the answer to our prayers.

    If that group of players can't beat a piss poor Hearts team or a mid table first division team (after 2 attempts) in any formation, then there's something far wrong.

    This. If our players actually tried a leg and put a shift in over the last few weeks we wouldn't be having this conversation about tactics.

    Either team spirit is gone, confidence is shot or the players can't be bothered -perhaps all three.

    Why bother with a banner - Hibs fans at the next home game could do what they occasionally do here in Germany when fans are pxxxxx off at their team

    -everybody could stand up and turn their backs to the pitch/team for 5 -10 minutes?
    - or fans could refuse to enter the terracing/stand for the first 10 minutes of a game

    Organising it would be a bit of a problem, but then you could get a lot more fans involved. Just an idea.

    He changed it on Saturday to a 4-4-1-1 sort of formation - still didn't work.

    It's down to more than the formation.

    was discussing this last night with a gers fan after the game. since the gers 3-0 at ibrox we have collapsed. not even the slightest decent performance. what i dont get is why ??

    how come,st johnstone,dun utd and mostly motherwell, with relatively unknowns can fight and scrap for everything and we cant.

    Suppose you could say that's the danger of buying these players who have stepped up a standard then came back with their tails between their legs.

    Stokes, Miller, Riordan, Stack, Bamba, McBride, Murray all played at "bigger clubs" and despite their obvious talents, have fundamental flaws to their game which have brought them back to the SPL outside the OF. Such flaws are mostly in their attitude.

    When things are going well, these guys will be flying high and playing well. It's when the hard work is required that they are posted missing.

    I'll probably be shot down in flames for this but a team of Rankin's and Stevensons wouldn't be out fought by a piss poor Hearts team or a first division team. Nor would they struggle to perform in a formation that is only slightly different to the standard 4-4-2. We have strikers who don't perform because "they're never passed the ball" yet show no interest in going looking for it. Midfielders who are posted missing when the going gets tough and defenders who are free-wheeling into the summer. 4-4-2, 4-4-3, 4-5-1? Irrelevent if we don't have a group of players who are proud to wear the jersey.

    It's probably unfair to put Murray into that category now that i think about it.

    No shooting down, I agree with you.

    If, let's say, Murray, Rankin and Wotherspoon were the only current first team players still here next season I wouldn't complain.
