Play to your strengths, James ![]() I'm not his greatest fan - and yup, he was rank rotten - but I thought that the booing he got tonight was a bit OTT. If he's still here next season, I'll be astonished. |

Hard not to feel sorry for him when folk are booing in the stands. It is seemingly going to be a while before we see him do anything some are convinced he is still very much capable of. I'm not a fan, but I hate to see players getting booed, it's not like he's intentionally trying to sabotage the match. |

Well said that man.... Forrest, when fit, will play like this.......get the ball, take a touch or two to control it, do a wee tippy tappy thing with his feet without touching the ball making it look like he might be thinking of taking his man on on the wing, then cut inside and give someone a square ball.....or tippy tappy thing with his feet, defender makes contact, Forest throws himself to floor, opens arms out wide to the ref and then stay on floor while the rest of the team bust a gut to cover his crapness and track back..........or get the ball lose it attempt to track back for three metres and then lose interest!! Face the facts Forrest lovers, this is a guy who has the footballing feet, the footballing pace but will never have the footballing strength, body or heart. I loved the wee guy when he broke through but apart from the odd cameo appearance ala paddy McCourt has contributed SFA to a celtic team over the past 2/3 years and yet some would still treat him like some would be pretender to the throne. No doubt the Forrest defenders on here have given far more stick to the likes of Stokes and Griffiths (who are decent players but no great shakes) than they would ever dream of giving Forrest even though they have contributed far more than Forrest ever has for the team!! Yeah he is one of us and came through the system but it doesn't mean we have to pretend that he is a good player. |

It is fair to say there is a part of our support that act like a bunch of spoilt winkers. Forrest had a bad game booing him was out of order. |

I don't like booing our own players but I can understand how he can infuriate when it is clear for all to see that his attitude is utterly stinking

Poor again when he came on. Good to see the boo boys out in force. He was far from the worst. |

His refusal to get to the byline is infuriating. Spent most of his time hiding. |

Some of the abuse Forrest got tonight was shocking. Getting called all sorts from two guys behind me. Absolutely no need for it. |

I was calling for Forrest to come on tonight and when he did he was abject. He didn't strike me as ever actually wanting the ball and the responsibility to do something creative with it. He was reluctant to run at the St Johnstone defence and looked to come inside far too often. Perhaps he just doesn't have the skill required to play against well organised defences in which case you have to question what purposes he serves? Arguably Forrest hasn't progressed at all since he first broke into the team. He has pace and he is a good finisher but he doesn't have the skill to get through packed defences, he makes poor decisions, he doesn't offer anything defensively, he shirks responsibility (he has been in team for six seasons now) and he is injury prone. If we get a half decent offer for him we should accept it and, in my opinion, we should be actively looking to sell him. |

Whereas I never have or would boo or condone booing of any of our players Remy, I have to disagree. I thought that he was by far the worst. Many had limited impact, but only he showed no interest. |

There's a fear about his play. I think he's done with us a new challenge may bring out something in him. |

This comment is pitiful. What did James Forrest bring to the game tonight. Our two defensive wing backs, as it were, were not on the pitch, Izzy & Matthews. That's why he was put on as a sub. Unless told otherwise by Delia, wee james's job was to provide.... eh... width. HE ( I assume) decided not to do that. What was his purpose on the pitch? Effe efin' Ambrose was as wide as him on the pitch. If I was Delia, I would have said, 'stay on the touchline and go at the full back'. It's not hard, given his well-hidden and ultimately inneffectual pace. He didn't. In that respect he is very consistent. He has no ambition. None. |
