PoTY                  Moshni - without him we wouldn't have even made the play offs
​YPoTY                Ralston
​Most improved   That's a big problem not sure anyone has improved over the season
​Worst                  Lyng (also a strong candidate for worst ever signing alongside Nicholls, Mols etc)
​Best signing        Moshni/Ralston
Disappointing      Lyng
​Best Win             away to Dunfermline 3-1 (thought McKinnon had cracked it)
Worst defeat       away to Falkirk (possibly worst in my 55 years of following them)
​Sum up               Cshambolic


Bring back the (real) "United Way" not the kiddy-on Martin version

I feel the same other than best win being v Dunfermline in the playoff. Might have agreed wi the away win too but didn't make that match.

Sum up hard to do in 1 word. Mine would be...

Lacking in effort,urgency and belief in too many ways. Undone by ourselves and officials regularly. Disunited more than United on and off the park.

There's a number of things that's been wrong with our side this Season, all of which have, either individually or combined, might have have cost us goals and caused us to lose goals, and have been sh1te to watch. Feel free to have your own opinions, agree / disagree, with what I've listed, or amend or add anything that you think should be included.

Issue, Responsibility in descending order
Lack of pace and urgency all too often, no effort or belief - Players, Manager
Too much back passing and sideways passing - Players, Manager
We’ve been far too soft - Players, Manager
Insufficient attempts on goal, instead trying to play thru or pass for somedy else to have an attempt - Players, Manager
Throw-ins never being put into the box - Players, Manager
Naebody on the back post for our corners - Players, Manager
Poor crosses into the box from the by-line - Players
Free-kicks being played backwards, sideways and not into the box - Players, Manager

We were simply not good enough to go up - Players, Manager, Board

Just stick Billy’s comments on the dressing room walls as Do’s and Dont’s. If the team adopts these we won’t go far wrong next season
