well done joe dodoo, loooks better though the middle. maybe needs a run of games. think warburtons head shake was just releif and frustration with performance.

At Dodoos age though we can't expect him to play like that week after week.
Saying that though, twice he's came off the bench in the last two games and has effectively been a big part in the team having six points from two and not two from two.
His assist for the HF goal against Dundee was inch perfect.
This is pretty much the same team that won us the second division apart from Windass and Garner, and Windass came off at half time to be replaced by McKay, another main stay in the team last season.
Second place is what we expected, second is where we are, without Barton, Rossiter, Kranjcar, and Windass, Holt and Waghorn have had injuries throughout as well. Not to mention McKay not playing as well as many expected.
That's an entire midfield to front line that has had issues this season, yet we're still 2nd.

Is Dembele not the same age as Dodoo? So your point about age is irrelevant. As for being second we have played a game more than Aberdeen and let's see what position we are come 1st Jan. The team is rank rotten and play the same predictable way we were extremely lucky today and the football is poor. We are miles and miles away from competing for the league and until we get a better manager and some heavy investment in the team then we will be competing for a distant 2nd Place.

Full of positivity there biffo.
Comparing Dodoo to Dembele is daft, Dembele has played a helluva lot more games than Joe and will be on a much larger weekly wage! Give the lad a chance and let's see what happens!
U want to change the manager? Short sighted in my opinion and would be a mistake. Do you think with our budgetsquad we should be top of the league?
26 Nov 2016 20:37:06
Biggest worry is not the tactics it's the fact that not one of our players has improved since we signed him, without exception. Is part of the managers job not to coach player and make them better?

Would any bear really be upset if any players left during the January window?
And for our chairman to be talking about us 'doing a Leicester' is about the most ridiculous statement I have heard all year. We are Scotland's biggest club as Warbs said yesterday. The only way we could do a Leicester would be winning a European trophy.
Finally second might sound okay but if we're a country mile behind Celtic then there's no way I'll be happy.

Naz think he meant that it is not always the biggest spender that wins, Leicester won EPL spending comparatively less than wealthier clubs. In January would let Waggy go at the £1m rumoured to be available.

A million? You might want to knock a zero off that!

I said that they are the same age which they are so don't know what your talking about. I also said in my post that under Warburton we will never win the league so that's why I want him removed. The team don't play good football and we have struggled in all of our league games Bar one. If your happy with Warburton then that's up to you however I'm not and many others feel the same.

Would be doing extremely well to get £500k for Waghorn. Would like to see a few moved on in January however can't see anyone commanding decent money and feel not many clubs would be interested in our players.

Wonder how long chocolate hammys windass will be out this time.

Although today wasn't our best performance hopefully it will mean that Dodoo now gets a run up top with Miller and 'arry . For me JD has more to offer than Garner in terms of pace, movement and finnishing so must get a run as we have some huge games coming up next 4/ 5 weeks.
As much as the first goal was a great finnish techinically, I loved the fact JD had composure to take a touch with clock ticking down last few seconds and on a poor surface and then slot it in the corner to win the game. There's huge pressure on players to play for our great club some buckle under it and some thrive let's hope Warbs has found us a gem in JD.
Last word goes to Miller thought he was great today again intelligent movement all day and 2 more crucial assists
FORZA.
