My personal opinion is that the walk out protest from the union babies had a detrimental effect on the team as a whole, coasting at 3-0 then after they scored there was some scary moments. The team needs our support more than anything just now .
Thought the subs were required at the time but Cortes looked scared at times . Also have a feeling that Tav and butland might well be away this window ?♂️, and still we follow.

Dunno about walk out affecting us. We only ever play well for one half. And once a team changes tactics against us PC is stumped ?.

The scored before the walk out.

St Johnstone pulled one back before the very laughable protest. And tbh the walk out had no impact on the performance or atmosphere which was already very flat.
Poor second have performance was down to the poor form of the players.
Liam Kelly, is a very poor 2nd keeper. Absolutely no where near the corner. Either stay on you line or come and collect it. He does neither and gets caught again just like against Hibs.
Hagi doesn't have any level of consistency to his game and for me is never an attacking player. Would be better playing an 8 as he doesn't have the pace to play on the wing. Quite a few very good balls put through to him and he didn't have the legs to catch them.
Thought Danilo was also poor but in fairness he is t not a number 10, always had his back to goal and very rarely got turned.
Propper, can't head a ball and again constantly caught out of position. I could go on and on….
Personally can't see where this team gets better. We should see a bit of improvement when Souttar and Balogun etc return but still not enough.
In the Summer, I'm not going to say who I would let go as there isn't enough space, so I will say who I would keep.
Souttar (would make a very good understudy/ squad player)
Raskin - needs a Steven Davis type beside him but has the potential to have a great future.
Jefte - good potential.
Yilmaz - good player who could adapt to different formations. Left back, wing back, winger
Igamane, lacks pace but has great potential
And that's it! Can't think of another player I would try hard to hold onto. If a fair offer comes in for anyone else I would consider it.

Nope that wasn't their fault at all they took the foot of the gas the 2nd half. It wasn't only the UB that left as I have seen a video and it was on the full Copland and they were quite a few that left from the top of it as well.

is it any surprise a boy in a foreign country comes in to see a gang dressed in black climbing over the seats and marching out
follow follow, yeah.
12 Jan 2025 19:31:11
All today's protest showed was most of the fans accept 2nd best. Well done to UBs for trying to make fans see sense.
12 Jan 2025 19:34:43
Tav and Butland staying, Tavs testimonial coming up, butland way better than kelly.
12 Jan 2025 19:35:07
Cortes for me, was a bit like Igamane when he first got into 1st team, looked unsure and a bit lacking in confidence BUT, if he improves like Igamane we will have a Corker imo.
12 Jan 2025 19:46:00
dont think Tav will be fit in time for end of window and possibly same with JB. Give Cortes some time and he might grow into being our Kuhn.
12 Jan 2025 19:46:48
Maybe about 800 union bears lol. Thousands others vocals told them their feelings. You don't want be their then don't come. Like 5% of stadium fans gona make a difference lol.
12 Jan 2025 19:54:48
TBH I don't think it did, the 2nd half panned out exactly as i thought it would, basically boring, we can't play for 90 minutes so was not surprised at all.
12 Jan 2025 20:03:23
Kai, this team can only put in a decent 45 at any one time. Its not the fans walkout protests, this is why their protesting. A piss poor team with piss poor management team and dare i say it all the way to board room level.
Ive been a season ticket holder for nearly 30 years and i can't remember a team so poorly coached and organised, especially defensively.
12 Jan 2025 20:05:57
KAI, absolutely no chance tav and butland will be away in this window mate ?.
12 Jan 2025 20:19:54
Storm I was in the Copland rear and you are right loads in there left at 55 mins.
12 Jan 2025 20:20:00
zikos you make a lot of good points I agree with. My only issue is that we don't have the cash to just keep 5 players and get rid of the rest. Some of the ones you don't rate can get better with a few changes. I thought Dio was half decent today though.
12 Jan 2025 20:34:57
That doesn't suit the narrative to some on here tho fife so they will just attack the UB.
Angus is there a post in here you don't reply to?
12 Jan 2025 20:38:28
Angus, I'm not saying I would let them go for free but I would listen to offers for everyone bar the ones I mentioned, including Dio. The lad has bags of potential but ours isn't the type of environment for nurturing players, they need to come in and hit the ground running and I think he is a couple of years away from being at the level we need.
12 Jan 2025 20:42:32
Paul - they scored on 54. You don't think our players were aware of the planned walkout at 55?
12 Jan 2025 20:46:17
Kinda shocked here but think u could be right Coops?.
12 Jan 2025 21:32:29
Zikos, re-: the Steve Davis thing, think Barron needs it more than Raskin mate?.
12 Jan 2025 21:53:41
Fork, think most of the players need it. We have a very young squad atm, for a team that want to challenge and win titles.
We need a bit of experience, especially in the middle of the park. But that experienced player needs to know how to win things.
12 Jan 2025 22:06:53
Storm are you for real. I didn't realise there was a limit but I have an opinion on most things. do you keep a notebook on what I say and when I say it. Be a little creepy but whatever turns you on.
look you don't like my opinions I know and understand that as they are polar opposites but I am allowed to have them.
12 Jan 2025 22:08:54
zikos. I think everyone is for sale but just think we wouldn't get sufficient profit from selling them all to give us the funds to replace them. It will happen but just not all in one or two windows.
