Alyn Stevenson Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Coustrain will start, at who's expense, I don't know, but he will start.He isn't in the development squad at all tonight which isn't like him which tells you, that he is very much part of Hughes plans this weekend. Good news if that's the reason, hope its not an injury that's took him out of the development squad though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RR #1 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 I would start coustrain in place of boaby Barr. When was the last time he had a good game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All transfers between Raith and Queens should be banned for all eternity. Reckon we got the best of Sparkie and of course John Baird will always be remembered for the only goal of the game at Easter Road. Still doing pretty good at Falkirk. Conroy didn't do much and Simmons was and is a bit of a fanny. Anderson was never consistent, could have been a player. Who's next ?. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughes said that Callachan was his man of the match, so he'll play as will Stevenson after that goal. If Bobby Barr and Stewart play the only way Coustrain could start would be at the expense of Ross Matthews. what about Davo, need him ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he was pretty good on Saturday, I only really feel like we have a threat going forward when he's on the ball, and although he can drift in and out of games recently he is usually at the heart of most of our attacks. I dont get the Callhan being Hughes MotM on Saturday, he was absolutely average, much like he's been all season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steakpiegravy Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 He started off well, cracked a rib in early September, wasn't really the same after that and Naysmith maybe didn't see him at his best. Maybe Naysmith saw Thomas as a much better prospect and with Carmichael back, the opportunities for Anderson to get a regular game were limited. Yeah I liked him too but every time you thought he was winning the doubters over he'd have a bit of a mare. Just not quite consistent enough at this level but has a bit of talent.

Shite player, Shite player, Good player who was past it, good player at every club but Queens at this level and a decent player who wasn't going to get any better. I can't remember the last time we had a player we signed from Queens themselves. On Barr, I think Bobby can be an excellent player. As we all expected, he's a player who'll either be utterly unstoppable or he can drift in and out of games. I noticed Joel wasn't even in the squad for the development team, which either means he's got another niggling injury or he's being kept for the first team. We'd be better punting Roberts to the reserves in that instance given he's only 20. If we can start Joel and Bobby I'd be delighted. For me Joel looked very confident going forward and wasn't phased against Hibs in the slightest. With a run of games I'd hope he could add a bit of creativity to our team, and free up a bit more space for Barr going forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Out of curiousity I checked. It was Stephen Simmons ironically. Moved from us to you before he moved back. Before him it was Graham Weir. Thought it might have been Joe Hamill but on checking he went back to Livi for a year in between us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIT THE CHANNEL Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Looking forward to my trip down - it will be a really tough game but the optimism is far higher than it would be pre-Hughes. A win here would really take some of the pressure off of the Ayr game - lose and it will squeaky bum time on Wednesday. Queens fans, any recommendations for a place to eat post game? Likely some pub grub type thing (but preferably not a Wetherspoons!) - as an added bonus, any pubs that do food that will likely show the Hibs v Townies game at 5:15? Cheers in advance!

The Caven Arms on Buccleuch Street serves great food and its nice and handy for the ground - its just over the river. Not sure if it will be showing the football though.

It is comfortably the best option for pub grub in the town centre though. As for the game, I expect we'll see the same lineup as the Morton game. A similar performance should see a similar outcome.

I imagine it could get Alba and unless there's rugby on at the same time they'd probably not mind putting it on though. You are right that there are few tables you could see the tv from. There probably aren't any other options that would allow you to eat and see the tv at the same time either though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RR #1 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 Grant Anderson is pish. His crossing is absolutely abysmal and your lucky if he scores twice in a year at this level. The best thing Gary locke done was not offering him another contract. I was surprised qots even signed him in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anderson, during his time with us anyway, was fine for our level and was one of the only ones you could rely on to flick on a header from a long ball. His aerial ability was brilliant I felt. He had decent pace about him as well. Won't argue re your comment about his crossing which, imo, was one of his main downfalls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno, Coustrain has shown he can be a decent player when given the chance. Bobby hasn't looked the same player since he came back from his injury.

Well when was the last time he had a good Game? He hasn't scored in the league since the first Derby and it's not like he is creating chances left right and centre. All my Rovers supporting mates think he is a stick on for player of the year. Crackpots Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will forever remember his goal against Hibs, but when the only positive thing you can say about a winger is 'he was good in the air' that says it all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
