This season is going to come down to us and them as usual, but every team we face in league seems to be all about damage limitation much more than usual, we have all seen teams come to play us and put ten men behind the ball but more
Often than not, when they went a goal or two down, they would remove the shackles and at least try and change shape to get something back, the odd one or two would just try and stop more goals going in…but it seems that every single team now, against us and that lot, turn up with a game plan that consists of defend until the 90 minutes are up.
The gap in the later 90’s early 2000’s between us, them and the rest was big but i can’t remember team turning up and not at least trying to have a go, has the gap ever been bigger, has the gulf in class ever been wider in Scotland than it is now or is it just a case of shitebag managers crossing their fingers and hoping to get more points than other teams in the league and staying up?
The standard is terrible and it is pretty crap to watch, not just for us but it must be brutal for the opposition fans (and players) as well.
