er yir macaroon Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Leonard, a midfielder is playing as a false 9. Lowry could replace him in a deeper role to release Mebude who’s like a whippet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErsatzThistle Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Why the feck is this born loser Scot Gemmill still in charge of our U21's ? I expect the following three excuses will be offered: "But, but, but .... he's Erchie's boy" "Guid laddie who always turned up fir Craig Broon's squads" "He's cheap" Fuck off, get someone else in. Consider appointing a foreign coach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProudScot Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 One of the best free kicks I’ve seen in a long long time from Stephen Kelly! Ridiculous effort, Messi esque! Kelly, Welsh, Mebude all look pretty tidy today Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
er yir macaroon Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Mebude and Mulligan off for Lowry and King. This is brutal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scots_Wha_Hae Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Utterly horrendous regardless of whether the final result ends up being positive. The SFA must replace Gemmil, he is massively out of his depth. His tactics are baffling, his selections inconsistent and bewildering and his style abhorrent. To be a bit more positive, we do have players at this level. This team could include Patterson, Ramsay, Gilmour, and Hickey, and the likes of Anderson, Fiorini, Doig and Barron are injured. Add on the likes of Lowry sitting on the bench and there is the bones of a very good side there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe that’s harsh but it was brutal, and I don’t see how the players will have benefited. Okay, it’s Lowry’s first squad but no way would Denmark have him on the bench.

Some decent players at that level but unfortunately under Gemmill the u21s have been uninspiring for some time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ErsatzThistle Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 Get rid of Gemmill. He's a professional loser of the Peter Grant kind. Surely among Steve Clarke's many friends and acquaintances in the game there must be a coach he knows who would be up for managing our U21s ?

There were allegations of Hughes bullying young players at Falkirk and Raith Rovers, they were certainly delighted when he left. His whole "wurking class boy frae Leef" media pantomime has got very old too. A man who just got a team relegated to the Scottish third tier should not be managing our U21 side. We can aim much higher than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KirkieRobRoy Posted June 10, 2022 Share Posted June 10, 2022 It was almost like one of those old-school senior team performances where we snatched a 1-0 against a much better team. Apart from them scoring, obv Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’d be brilliant for the players and always plays attacking, passing football. Graeme Murty would be perfect for the u21s. He plays passing/attacking football and is all about development and progress over results. That's a dreadful thing at senior level as shown by his Rangers tenures but he is perfect for youth level. He is far more forward thinking than the dinosaurs we have in charge at u19/u21 level currently. Surely there are young promising coaches in Scotland, who we could try at u19/u21 level. I'd be happy with them even splitting their time between club and Country, if it meant we got someone willing to attempt playing football.
