Bairnardo Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Ball retention? No having that He tackles folk and gives it to someone who can play. Generally playong the simple pass and he makes himself available for the backwards pass if needed. I would give him that. If we are going to continue to argue about Taiwos contribution to this season though, I am out. I have given my opinion for why I think he is one of, if not the most deserving of recognition this season. It is an opinion and others are of course entitled to theirs. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would really be looking to retain McGhee, he’s the best CB we’ve had for a few years, by some distance IMO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're a pretty realistic target to aim at though. All you'll have to do is pick up two more wins than us in the remaining 9 games, anytime that manages to finish below us this year are a right gang. Brechin away midweek wont be as clear cut as a home game.... Id have that, Dumbarton and maybe QOS for Brechin's chances of winning a game Our 6 away games in 9 rules us out of anything higher but we can spoil a few parties 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets be honest here, the best chance for any team to get points in this division is a home game against Brechin followed by an away game against Brechin, I'd rather have those two fixtures in the last ten than any other. I'd be looking at those two games and Dumbarton at home as 9 points, the rest could go any way but I won't be expecting much. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we have instigated this then it's a great move by the club. Better playing them when they have nothing to play for than playing them when they are trying to win the title. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bridge of allan bairn Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 St Mirren game rescheduled AGAIN. Now Tuesday, 17th April. maybe no bad thing if we can get a result against livvi it means our next game is 2 weeks later at home to brechin. 6 points from these two games and watching others play more games means we know what we need to do if still in it by the time we play st mirren twice who in all likelihood may gave wrapped up the league by then 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've just had a look at the Dunfermline run in, Dumbarton last game where they will play a shadow side like Ayr did against us pre their play offs and having 5 home games will be the best chance you have had for play offs since promotion. The end of the day, I dont think there is a decent team in the league, a couple of effective teams but not decent 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do need the win on Saturday though.Going to be a tough April irrespective. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Back Post Misses Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 Just take one game at a time. Try and win then move on to the next game and see where it takes us. About 5% chance of the play offs at this moment. That will improve if we keep winning. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The end of the day, I dont think there is a decent team in the league, a couple of effective teams but not decent Agreed, you would struggle to pick a championship select side that would stay in the SPL. Dobbie, McGinn, Sibbald could step up. Big defender at Livvy (Gallagher?) that's the only players who impressed me so far. The rest are much the same, there are guys like Cardle who had their chance and failed who still stand out on occasion so that says a lot. St Mirren and Livvy are very well organised sides but lack the real quality of previous teams. Dorrans, Griffiths, McCarthy, Snodgrass, Stevie May, Doolan, Hardie, Latapy etc 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely at worst we would be signing him up to get a fee? Both sides have to sign the deal. We had an option on Gregory Tade, took up the option, he refused to sign and he moved on for nothing. Players hold the power. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
