Give Finlayson a run. He is good and will only get better playing at a higher level. Sure he will make mistakes but if he takes his chance and makes the grade, the right back problem solved and a young player in contract that will give a payback when he moves on. If he is not given a chance what's the point of having him on the books. Edited July 16, 2017 by HopeStreetWalker 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I meant the taiwo and Kerr pairing of doom. Thought Harris did well but Stirling were very poor at the back so would like to see him against better defenders. ICT game will be more of a marker. If hippo is recovering from injury I wouldn't even of had him on the bench against Stirling. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure Kerr will be used sparingly this season and the Miller sub didnt help yesterday, we had a pace outlet to use with Austin which we used a lot which was shown up on one particular ball through similar to Miller. The better option yesterday wouldve been O'Hara for either Loy or Austin, the Miller sub threw out the dynamics as we werent looking to get someone to hold the play up, pumping high balls up or getting many aerial balls in from wide, it was mostly on the deck and quickly. Ive no qualms with a 70% fit Hippo on the bench, if required yesterday he is one player who could unlock a defence or make something happen compared to Shepherd or Watson 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Very encouraging performance yesterday. I know Stirling are a bit shit but we really did play well for long phases. Loy, Austin, McKee and Harris the standouts for me. MOTM for Taiwo though, what a fucking player. Hippo in for Craigen and that's our strongest 11 imo. Liked the look of O'Hara again 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reggie Perrin Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 Incidentally was the ball out leading up to the penalty?I could clearly see Houston admitting to the Stirling bench that it was. We were nearly in line and the ball looked at least a foot out of play. The players obviously thought it was out so well done to Muirhead (who I thought had a good game) for reacting quickly and making the most of the linesman's error.Incidentally why would you pay extra for a "Prime" seat especially in the front few rows where the safety barrier impairs the view? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His slow steady walk from the 18 yard box and this evolves into a swagger as he picks up the ball, places in under his arm and then his swagger goes into overdrive as he now strides into the opposition box and places it on the spot...then goal!! 5 hours ago, bridge of allan bairn said: Why we let Baird take them so long and miss them baffles me.

You're as good at judging offside as you are at judging Alex Harris then. Watch the rerun on Falkirk TV. The number two is clearly playing him onside, and the covering player and the number five may be as well. It's not even remotely in doubt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a moment in the first half though when I think Austin was a good couple of yards offside and was left with the keeper to beat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marko is excellent going forward but still makes mistakes defensively. However, he's got a year to improve that side of his game as I imagine Kidd won't get a new contract unless he shows more than he's done so far. At that point the right back slot is up for grabs and it would be nice to think that Finlayson will get the same chance to claim it that Gallacher is now likely to get on the other flank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 16, 2017 Share Posted July 16, 2017 The birthday gifts from hell. I was handed a bag of dolly mixtures in the first half. Would have been rude to refuse. They were however some Super Market own brand dolly's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
