Brechin City FC

Martin has been excellent, one of the players of the season. Mackintosh has been impressive as well but has been in and out of the team (much like everyone else!)

Can't argue with a word you have said there. That second half we should have been all over them in those conditions and we played as if we were a man down. Ref cost us the first half, Price and the team cost us the second.

I agree but he's going nowhere before the end of the season so we might as well park it until then.

I can only assume Handling was carrying an injury and they wanted to give him the start of the second half to see if he could carry on - otherwise it is a very odd time to make a change. There is definitely a player in there with Wright, I think we have yet to see his full ability.

I think his comment about players not giving enough late on in such a big game was spot on. I also thought his changes to the team were working well in the first half - Seth and Strachan both did well. The manager needs to take some of the blame for the performance as well, however. After all, it is his job to motivate the team.

Agree with this 100%. And it's not just the results, it's the decline in football we are playing, the fall out with Lenny, the fall out with Grady, the lack of trying to change the game last night. He's only been here since the end of November and it already feels like so much unnecessary chaos has been caused.

Thought Lenny did fine on Saturday, didn't have a lot to do but made one decent save. Will be interesting to see if he continues in goal tomorrow, I expect he will.

Buckie were the better team on the day. They played good football in addition to being more physical and time and time again it's the physical side of the game that lets us down in the big games. I think it's clear as well that Price wants a different style of play to that under Kirk and I feel like performances have dipped while we are transitioning to the new style. I'm prepared to give Price the benefit of the doubt but given he has made a few very big decisions (Dropping Lenny & Grady) and both have now backfired on him it's added unnecessary pressure. Still a long way to go and I still have faith we can win the league and get promoted. But things will need to click soon and the Buckie away game now becomes a must win rather than must not lose.

I have nothing to base this from but I would prefer Gavin Price or even Liam Craig.

We pretty much always played with a back 3, sometimes 2 up top, sometimes 1.

Couldn't agree more. Ferguson was a stand out. Good to see Seth getting back to how we know he can play, and Marc Scott makes a huge difference.

I would hope a statement isn't far away considering the vote is before the Supporters' meeting on Tuesday.

It would have been nice if there was a bit more transparency around it. Supporters shouldn't have to go to the club to ask the question. This was one of the complaints aimed at the previous committee.

Certainly don't think you'll find any City fans taking anything for granted at this stage. Wednesday is a huge game for starters.

The Brechin Arms is a decent pub, 5-10 mins from the ground. Stables is unfortunately closed. The City Club at the ground will also be open before the game I would imagine.

We also hit the woodwork multiple times. Wasn't a vintage performance by any means but as said previously, Huntly defended really well (was impressed with Booth in particular who made some excellent tackles) and we were on top for the majority. We do need to start creating more chances or results like this are going to become a bit more regular and cost us as they did last season.

Get it done!

Ifs and buts - although I think the likes of Scott and Cammie Ross will do well this season. This may be controversial but I think Davidson hasn't been bad in midfield. McLeod looks raw and think he will take some time to get into the team.

Agree with this. Also think we could do with another centre mid. Not so worried about the striker spot as we have a number of players who can play there - I'd be signing the trialist that's played there as well. Do think we could use another central midfielder and that's where I'd like to see us bring in a loan signing.

Thought no7 did quite well, keeper impressed me too with his confidence and composure. Decent run-out in the end, squad is coming together nicely which makes a change from the last few seasons.

Agree 100% with everything you have said there.

Thanks for that, MaradonaMaradona.
