slangs Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Totally unfair to pick out one player we cud all go through the team and pick out who we think should be doing more.we can also criticise the tactics,they too may not suit a player. it's a team game coaches included Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_the_rover Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 I was a bit confused when brechin were chasing the game and dodds took off a midfielder to put himself on at the backFisher was immense for us yesterday he constantly is top form Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did also offer a possible option of a slight change of tactic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With all the talk about a change in tactics and Caldwell being as much use as a chocolate fireguard, would it be an option for Dods himself to try a stint up front ? Sunnyside shut 5 years ago or I'd ve driven you there ha ha ....The annoying thing about Caldwell is in glimpses he's shown he's got something but his enthusiasm and manner s just not there ... He ll nvr get his desired rise up the leagues with his present attitude though .... We should dump him and bring in a keen decent junior or a youth player who would be committed ... Glad we re not talking about sacking Dods as he s got a decent group of players and 99% of us know our forms down to injuries ... On the other hand I'm not keen on this 5 defenders and hoof it but hey ho it's got us 4th in league .... A realistic and great achievement would be 4th plac....... Gonna be hit with more suspensions I'd guess Troutens can't be far away ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given Dods' rampaging performance against Farfar last season which saw him up the park more than he was in defence , it might not be the crazy idea you suggest !

'Steve Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 That was desperately poor yesterday. Yes we still have a lot of key players out injured/suspended but my word that was dire. Don't think the Albion keeper had a proper save to make and quite worryingly it was much the same against Peterhead too.Was very much a patched up defence and Caldwell didn't offer anything upfront again. However in midfield we had Graham, Trouten, Love and Watt...all very good players at this level so no excuses for the performance yesterday.We desperately need Jacko back and by the sounds of it, it won't be anytime soon.

slangs Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Think they all need a boot up the arse tbh can't seem to draw never mind win. Nothing in these defeats tell me they can't get back to winning ways with 4/5 1st choice out. Couple of harder games coming up,so here's hoping they get their fingers out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Dods brought himself on, we thought that he was going to do just that, play up front. It seemed a strange tactical decision, chasing a goal, to bring on another defender.

RedintheBed Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Dods went into defence to release Fusco into midfield. It also meant Dods was available to come upfield for corners and long throw ins. Made perfect sense to me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedintheBed Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 At least he tried something different. Didn't work this time, but it was a "bold" move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slangs Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Not long enuf time left in the game for that one I'm afraid. We struggled all game to produce in the final third and were not getting the breaks at the mo for that one to work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess, like us, your bench was thin on resources. As others have said, you badly miss Jackson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedintheBed Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 Who were the trialists? They were 2 young guys from Burntisland juniors. A 16 year old and a 17 year old. Their dads were standing among the Brechin fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
