So there wasn't much up front..right

We were bad at the back ..right

and we lacked bite everywhere especially in midfield...right

Oh and we've been practising defending crosses all week after Dundee United ...

I am speechless

"We've got lots of young players in our side and as long as we can learn from our mistakes and improve then that's all you can ask for," said Collins.

Anybody else sick of this mantra?Yes we know its true but we had it all through Tonys tenure and its happening again(Big Macs interview)now.

Streaking's a bit 70s but the aggressive element may add a new twist.

Collins plans to sit down this week and analyse footage of the weekend clash to see where the game was lost

Save you the time JC - we were badly set up tactically and we didnt compete for the ball. Our defence was all over the place. Come on Johnny sort it oot sir.

I totally agree ! If we want more aggression and bite is it not about time Deano got a run in the team?? I mean whats the problem ,why is Dean Shiels not getting a chance? I think he,s just what we need in the team just now Who agrees ?? A COUPLE OF STARTS FOR DEANO!!!

To have an agressive team we need agressive players. People Collins brought in like Kerr, O'Brien, Gathessi etc are not exactly agressive. We lack agression, especially in midfield and it shows how much we miss a player like Scott Brown. Someone to chase things down, be strong and win tackles, it's just not happening. Im sorry Collins but I'm afraid we need players with an agressive nature to have this streak in our play.
