pete 3 Posted September 26, 2017 Author Share Posted September 26, 2017 first time ive felt we have a manager .whose potentially good enough to walk into a dressing room . and change things for the better .at any club outside off the old firm . hence when i hear of managerial vacencies at ross county and falkirk . i think hes good enough to manage those clubs right now . hence the worry. its not often you find a really good manager and it doesnt happen often .but i look at mackay and think we have a wee gem frazer wright also deserves praise .hes taken to the job well in many respects. at the moment i see them very much in the mould off kevin drinkell and ray stewart drinks was the silent partner .while stewart was more the one losing his head in the dug out they were a effective combination dave mackay is very much in that mould he stands on the touchline casting his eye over things . while its frazer who does a lot off the shouting . but i get the impression mackay does his talking in the dressing room . and players are left in no doubt whats expected i hope hes here for some time to come. but when these vacancies come up .i often wonder would he cast his mind elsewhere. its only natural would like to see the club give him a new deal now hes earned it in my opionion hes given the club back to the fans in a short space off time . only 39 games in and hes already only 3 wins away from matching mclarens victory total of 22wins that took him 82 games to acheive in a season and a half he left with a 27 per cent ratio dave is currently at 47 per cent .the club and fans have never had it so good for such a long time saturdays now are a day to relish . not dread long may it continue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shane back kicking a ball again today which is good news. Did your form not take a complete nose dive last season when he was out injured? If so I expect a very tough game if he's back. Won't be there as I will be on a plane and won't find out the score till I land. We will need to be better than Saturday's performance if we are to beat Elgin. Can honestly see this finishing a draw.

pete 3 Posted September 26, 2017 Author Share Posted September 26, 2017 been a long time since a albion manager has been linked with another club .dave mackay has been installed at 14 -1 in the race to be next falkirk manager . ouch now that would be a sore one if it ever came to pass .their certainly is no love lost between the two sets off fans one club i take delight in seeing humped every week and hopefully if smithy is put in charge for next few games. they get hammered a few times more. starting at morton on sat . dave mackay is just starting out on his mangerial career and should stick around for a few seasons more at least. till were back in league one and going well . but for once its a positive slant for the club shows what a good jobs hes doing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB_Bino Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 1 hour ago, Thom & Gerry said: You his agent? Unless you enjoy reading the same, absolute nonsense repeated over and over and over and over again, then do yourself a favour and just ignore Pete's posts. People got fed up with him spouting his drivel on the Albion Forum and he went in the huff and started spouting his rubbish in a supporters club closed group on Facebook instead. The same thing happened there and he has now moved onto P&B. People have tried every tactic to get him to stop it but he never listens. Nothing against the guy in person but he is an absolute pest in the cyber world, my advice to you is just ignore him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bino Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Back to the game and this is going to be another interesting one. To any Elgin fans out there... is your team attack minded or likely to sit deep and hit on the counter? We're pretty much all out attack so never a dull moment at forthbank these days. Can't wait for the game!! Cmon the Binos Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headthebaw Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 Let's not get carried away. We've had a great start to the season but talk of McKay moving on to a bigger club is fanciful.We can play better than we have recently and we'll need to as the season progresses.

BB_Bino Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 I'll not make the match sadly, but fingers crossed there will be an improvement on the recent displays at home. Sure, a loss to Clyde and a win against Annan is no disgraceful thing at this level, however the performances have been below par and we were, in my opinion, fortunate to pick up 3 points from those games. I would like to see Mackay going back to the 4-5-1 or 4-3-3 (whatever way you want to look at it) that had given us the early season "success". Playing this way has ensured that our more creative players have managed to get on the ball to impact the game. With players returning from injury this formation gives him a bit of a headache on who to play, but if it isn't broke then why fix it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 3 Posted September 27, 2017 Author Share Posted September 27, 2017 one thing that worries me for sat . is coping with the physical precence . of elgin .we still seem a bit lightweight when we come up against sides with big players . we got muscled out off the game against clyde particulary by david goodwillie who ran riot and elgin have run riot against us a few times in recent seasons 4-0 and 4-1 at forthbank if we click at weekend im sure wel get the three points hoefully caddis might be back to add a bit of steele in midfield will be strange not facing the usual suspects gunn and sutherland who always seemed to score against us will be intresting to see who gets the number one spot at weekend . id go with binnie whos still a good keeper maybe just needed a reminder against annan that no player is indespensible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's ridiculous anyone actually think's Falkirk would go in for Mackay as this stage, despite our great start he's hardly proven. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhliston Posted September 28, 2017 Share Posted September 28, 2017 Should be another home win on Saturday for us, Elgin are not too great away from home. Binnie in goal on Saturday will help steady the defence and hopefully Caddis is fit to start as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
