Bad decisions from start to finish.
Starting line up poor
Tactics poor
Subs/timing of subs poor
The substitution at the end was so negative and if anything invited pressure
No need for Barron to come on, Aasgaard was still getting in goal scoring positions, the change should have been Gassama for Antman.

Losing 2 goals to Falkirk and then 3 to Motherwell just shows our naivety at defending and running with players from midfield, also the fact that we must be one of the slowest starting teams in the league - Maeda presses constantly to win the ball back and we have multiple prima donnas who stroll round pitch like they own it - we get beaten by teams who show hard work and lots of endeavour - something we severely lack but can show it in odd flashes - this lies with management and also not having a leader on the park - wee Barron gets slagged by some on this site but had he started the tempo would have been up and am sure we could have seen a different outcome as his workrate can be infectious - would rather have one of him than 10 Gassamas or Aasgaards - imho.
Another kick in the guts for us long suffering supporters. ?

Not once this season have I jumped on the (Rohl is our saviour) bandwagon, even after our 3 1 win over Celtic or our 4 2 win over Hearts, although I loved the results. We have too many poor players.
I honestly don't think Rohl is our long term manager. There have been too many really poor displays, too many slow starts to games. I wouldn't give him an open cheque book this summer.

Wasn't a pop at Barron, just think using your last sub chasing the win to bring on a more defensive/retaining midfielder was so negative.
Gassama should have been taken off for fresh legs as soon as we got our 2nd goal.
Twice now, poor decision making has cost us against Motherwell.

Yes Blue, agree with a lot of your points, the midfield has been wrong all season, not enough bodies in there, bad choices today playing Aasgaard and Gassama from the start. I'm not a big fan of Dio, but him and Raskn know each other, and wee Barron in there gives us a lot more energy.
The first half is all on Dr, and I'm having serious doubts that we can win this league.

Not a dig at you, 5watp5 - agree re Barron substitution when we needed goals but when the wee man starts he gives us energy which was obviously lacking today - you get out a game what you put in, and in the first half we put in zippeedeedoodah - obvious after 10mins that energy and effort was not there - sad that we have come to this stage then ? the nest at home when a stellar display was required - a draw at worst against Jambos and we are done for.
??? Worst thing is teams don't really need to be super skilful to beat us or put us under pressure, they just need to work hard and shut us down - all the things we seemingly can't or won't do. ?

Agreed. Where is Antman? He was on the bench, but Rohl didn't bring him on?
There's something else going on with him imo.

The Barron sub bemused me, surely, if you were going to bring a third midfielder on you'd have done that in the first half to combat their three. Gassama should have been hooked at half time. Antman or Skov Olsen should have been on. To me, Skov Olsen should have started, as he tracks back more than any winger we've got.

I've been defending Rohl but can't disagree with that assessment. Rohl was far too conservative today. Think he played to the gallery with two up front too.
I like two up front, but when you're playing the best football team in the league you need the extra man in middle, especially when carrying Aasgaard and Gassama Miovski.

Totally agree, mate. Was confused when the change came. If anything, I thought Raskin off for Barron and Antman on for Gassama.
Danny got it wrong today and we were out-thought and out-played.
Our 2nd half was far better but the worry is how easy we are taken apart in defence.
