Some extracts to balance out the clapping

Oh Dear.
When are we going to learn that hopeful punts up to a lone striker are never going to work? The first half was brutal for this, and even on the odd occasion where Nade did get on the end of if there was nobody there to get on the end of his knock on. We are always at our most effective when playing it on the deck, and this long ball nonsense completely takes our two most creative players in Crawford and Kurtaj out of the game.
Second half was a slight improvement but our decision making in the final third was atrocious. Going for cute little passes and flicks over the defence when the simple option would have worked, and don't even get me started on Imrie's baffling decision not to play it out wide for Crawford in acres of space towards the end. Nade was guilty of something similar earlier in the half too, both times leading to possession being lost from a promising scenario.
Lastly; We're a goal down with ten minutes to go. Our Best striker is languishing on the bench. Why in the name of f*ck didn't Canning throw him on and go for broke?!
Yet again, complete indifference shown towards a cup competition.
This. Unbelievable not to make a late change.
First half we were slow and pathetic. 2nd half was a bit better and we looked quicker and sharper but the quality was awful.
Crawford and Kurtaj looked OK but the rest were poor.
