Michael W Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 A very, very bold change from McKinnon. Made the difference by the sounds of it! Maybe not as a result of the players coming on scoring, but it got us back from what sounded a pretty poor situation, with Hamilton having all the possession in the second half. Great result.

HIT THE CHANNEL Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Couldn't make it! Great result,let's hope for a big draw or winnable tie. No Ross county away etc! How did Daly do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 That was the most I've enjoyed a game at Starks Park for years. Great atmosphere, fans got right behind the team and the players responded. Flinging Daly and Wighton on at 1-1 was bold but ultimately it worked. Great stuff.

Bert Raccoon Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 How did Daly do? He was standing in front of me. Reasonably well behaved by all accounts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanCouserRRFC Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Thought we were brilliant tonight. The changes were bold but needed because after accies scored they took a grip of the game for 10 mins or so. Daly coming on gave us a different threat and he won everything against the 2 centre halves. Overall thought we deserved it. Special mention for Cuthbert, what a game he had and looks a totally different player under McKinnon. Roll on Saturday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Killie at home would probably be the frontrunner at the moment bearing in mind the draw is seeded. Motherwell and ICT also aren't looking too clever, although the latter of those would still beat us if their entire team had their feet set in concrete blocks.

Paco Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 Ryan McCord in the number 10 role. Ryan McCord's set pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I'm just going to start by saying that number 44 for Accies is their equivalent of Ross Perry. A truly woeful player who gave us great delight every time the ball came near him as he crumbled under the pressure of playing at Fortress Starks. I've no idea who he was, but he'll go down in the memory as one of those horrendous players who made life a lot easier on the night. From our point of view, we had the perfect start. A total scramble of a goal which somehow ended up in. Not that we'll complain. From there on in we sat with a 4-5-1 and just repelled attack on attack. Stewart struggled at times but overall we were content to have Toshney and Bene keep things at bay as we tried to find rare counter attacks. Given Accies record in the league so far, I'm not going to argue with McKinnon's view. As soon as they scored though, McKinnon completely changed it up moving to a 4-3-3 bringing on Wighton and Daly. Daly had a field day against aforemention #44 and proceeded to boss him about the pitch. Wighton and Stewart offered more of a pacy threat. Am I right in thinking both our goals came as a result of set pieces from McCord? Either way, Benedictus rocked up to get his second goal so far. Have to say, the atmosphere towards the end was brilliant when we went forward. We've been missing a bit of that on Saturday games but it always seems to appear if we're playing midweek at home against teams from the league above. McKinnon at the end was glorious too. Utterly buzzing. On to the next round! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanCouserRRFC Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 How refreshing was it to move to a 4-3-3 and attack Hamilton when they equalised. Changed days from Murray, he would have crumbled in that situation with no plan B. Prime example away at hearts last season when they were up 1-0 and eckersley had to go off and they had used all 3 subs and we sat in for a 1-0 defeat instead of making changes and attacking them. What a difference under McKinnon though and the atmosphere tonight was brilliant! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 The SFA will be asking Wighton to piss in the cup after that display, only on for 20 minutes yet he covered the whole pitch and ripped the pish out of the Accies at every turn, now give us 90 minutes Craig.

Wasn't at the game, so I'm stunned to hear this, Lucas has been a rock for us at the back of late, and is well on his way to becoming a fan favourite. I guess everyone is entitled to their off night.
