Possibly our hardest game so far comes this Saturday at home to Ross County. We really be winning all our games at home and with Fyvie back and likely to start and possibly Clark/Stanton to be on bench to come on also.

I would go with...

Rakovan
frans
Watson
robson
bouhena
aird
fyvie
loemba
mcmullen
curran
safranko

Looks good especially with CLARK, Stanton and King on bench.

Aird fyvie (thank fuck) Rab robson
Loemba
Curran our Slovakian man safranko

Still think 3 at the back is our best formation imo

I'd prefer Aird to be released to attack in a 4-4-2. His crosses are a source of goals in a team that does not create many chances.

Also noticed Shambles said "teams know we play fast attacking football at home"

I'd go with the starting XI from Falkirk except Fyvie for Rabbit even if a bit unfair on Rabbit.
I'd keep the same formation too whatever it was.
Btw I thought Robson was good at Falkirk, I like Robson.

I will say this tho, there were 14 United players on the pitch on Saturday & Laszlo wasn't one of them.

On watching again their 5 goals were almost identical. Ok the 3rd was direct from a free kick but from that position on their right there were 5 square balls along our 6 yard line that ended up in the back of the net. And at 0-1 there was another that missed the inrushing player by inches. Never seen so many identical goals, you think we might have learned.

smeds - they were 5 square balls into 6 yard line. Like watching kids football. yup they should have been 2-0 up then too - with an identical attack

no he was all 14 of them - leadership!

Just watched those highlights. Looks like we did create a few good chances but were non-existent in defence. Regardless of how good Robson is or not 4 balls coming in from his side for goals is far from ideal. I guess Lazy Loemba in front of him doesn't do him any favours but that's surely not good enough. County should have had a few more too. Desperate desperate stuff - had nobody told the players this as a 6 pointer. I fear for us at Ayr (Ayr!) next week. The shoe-filler would just love to do us over and we don't have the defence to deal with Shankland (Shankland!).
Tear inducing stuff.

Have done for years now. Only club I know, that can change a failing squad completely 4 times and get worse each time and still have players downing tools.

This is true and that can only point to one thing - poor leadership in both the business and footballing sense. If MM had binned CL when he came in to the chair you might have thought the business sense was turning around, but seems we still need to sort both. It could still get worse before it gets better.

Absolutely it’s down to poor leadership, right at the top.
