I agree about the goalkeeper coach, an obvious weak spot in both his spells at the club. We either sign a decent keeper, which will be hard at the moment as it's looking at free agents, or get a better coach who can work with Ericsson on the areas he needs to improve. 

I actually think Ericsson could be a good keeper in the long term with the right coaching, he has some of the attributes like a big physical presence and he makes good saves. The other parts like positioning, kicking, dealing with crosses are the easier parts to improve with a good coach.

A complete lack of young players coming through is a major problem for the club.
Wee seem to be trying to develop good 5 a side players Chalmers, Glass, Mochrie,Meekison.......... all have natural ability, however completely unprepared for the physicality of Scottish football.
Yesterday was another example of our lack of height ,aggression and general win at all cost attitude.

 
I completely agree, all of the players we bring through are much of a the same. Tippy tappy sideways passes and great in possession in our own half.

Ross Graham is the only one that makes any sort of a case but I really fear for the boys development/confidence.  Is it any wonder Lewis Neilson jumped at the first chance?

I hate being negative but it's the truth, we don't seem to be progressing in any department other than Striking and that's only in short period that Crawford has joined.

Another example is Niskanen, I'm not his biggest fan but he put in some decent performances from memory around Christmas (motherwell at home springs to mind). Where is his career going, his performances when given a chance have nose dived.

Very few examples of progression can't be highlighted and new ideas are clearly required.

We are a shitshow of a football club at the moment.
