The Pukki one was ridiculous because it was far too close to call and VAR should have left it alone - but what was given offside there wasn't an arm but the shoulder, i.e. the first bit you can play the ball with.

Not sure why some take it so personally, I cannot comment on today’s game, didn’t see it, (although the stats aren’t good, but stats don’t win games or score points), I have come to the conclusion on the games that I have seen, that the football on offer is not in the style or to the level that I like to watch, I am unconvinced that LJ will be able to bring that about, so it’s probably time for him to go. Now, that doesn’t mean I have to denigrate anyone who thinks he will lead us to the promised land, that his stewardship of the team is one of an improving nature and there is more to come, I just don’t see it and surely that’s why the forum exists, for us to debate these things, good and bad, positive and negative. If (when) LJ does leave, whether that be sacked, by mutual consent, end of contract or poached, then we will have all this again, as there will be not a chance everyone will agree on a successor, whenever that is.

I accept the DK is far more comfortable, but as for match atmosphere? My first time at the DW today. I would say atmosphere at Springfield Park was better but that might be a combination of nostalgia and seeing an exciting 2-2 draw at Springfield whereas today was quite a tough watch at times.

You’ll do well back up there, and, to be fair (much as it pains me to say it) the premiership needs the Tangerines - it was crazy in the recent past (2014/2015 was it?) when Hearts, Hibs and Rangers were all in the championship whilst Ross County, ICT and Hamilton were lording it in the Premiership - although I think ICT may have finished 3rd that season? Great achievement for them but a joke with the Gers and two of the three Edinburgh clubs in the division below ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Brazil 1970 is the benchmark we aspire to now, yeah? Where has this sense of entitlement come from, we're a middle-of-the-road club with a less than glorious history, we're doing pretty well all things considered. If you want perfectionism why the hell did you choose to support city, and hasn't the penny dropped that you will be better off elsewhere if that's what you are expecting?
