Linlithgow Rose - 2019 onwards
paul999 replied to Auld Heid's topic in East of Scotland Football League
All about opinions, delighted with the win on Saturday, although I did not see it coming, the penalty decision was for me very soft. The games I saw were anything but Turgid. Think we had 5 in the first half v HOB ! Anyway time to back Herdy, hope he gets it right. (Just not convinced) -

Brownlie & Cairns will definitely be a big miss, Stevenson & Wilson not so much. Very surprised at who has left and a bit underwhelmed at who has come in. I'm just not feeling this change in direction at all !! The feeling was that the squad was almost there but frustrated at some performances especially the last minute goals away to Dundonald and LTHV but did this squad really need dismantled ?? Not for me !! -

Not convinced removing BF for Herd is a good move, the fact that Herdy was making his presence felt and no doubt touting himself for the job for weeks beforehand doesn't sit well. I rated him as a player but as a manager I've heard very conflicting reports. I hope he is the answer but to let our best defender go without having a replacement in place seems crazy. Both lads signed from BU where not good enough to get into a struggling team but hopefully they find there feet quick. HTG -

Unbelievable strike so late in the game, that and what looked like a debatable penalty ! Another strong performance though. Mark Stowe looks a very good player. -

Would expect to beat Armadale by a few goals, next 2 games should be a marker ! -

Scapegoat ! Not the best but who was ? -

Pat Scullion has had unfair criticism, at times he has been a scapegoat. Never hides and in a god team would fit in well. -

IMO we have the right management team in place and the lads that have come in are of a better quality than the ones that have been let go. Hopefully a striker and a goalkeeper to come and for the first time in a few year we have every reason to look forward to the coming season. -

Unfortunately this is the reputation Linlithgow fans have now, its as if supporters save up there weekly frustrations to vent it towards there own players !, must be the worst at this level -really embarrassing stuff. The players hardly got a clap when they entered the field on Saturday, any true supporter should now do exactly that - Support !!! -

The last time we played Bo'ness we were beaten 2-1 at home with a team that finished well in the league. At that time i'm sure Bo'ness were in the bottom half of the league, so since then I would have to say the team has gone backwards with some incredibly poor signings. No use in pointing fingers but as i've said before this was not overnight. As for Saturday it was very much a game of two halves with the wind playing a factor. It is always a tough place to go and have witnessed better Linlithgow teams getting a bigger beating than what i saw on Saturday. My frustration is that i'd have hoped to see more notable signings made by now but also happy to wait and hope that the quality is better than what we have brought to the club over the past few seasons.

Brown has a huge rebuild on his hands, not something that has happened overnight as this team has been in decline for quite a few seasons now. -

Brown should do a good job, the guy is very professional in all aspects of football coaching/management. His lack of knowledge of this level may be the only negative but i'm sure he will be a quick learner. Good appointment imo. -
