The Wrong Car Posted September 20, 2022 Share Posted September 20, 2022 Fair point, although I think Martindale knew Guthrie from Port Vale/Bradford and Omeonga (via Bartley) from Hibs "known from the Scottish/English game" is probably a better phrase for it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His biggest asset is his ability to cut in from the left and hurt teams with goals and assists.

In fairness to those comments, he probably is at his best, or at least carries the largest goal threat, from the left inside channel. Yet he's very capable when played either right or central too, as you point out. I was pleased he got that clincher for you against RFS. Following that up with his Motherwell performance will've now fully convinced folk of his merit so good on him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Livi he tended to be the one making things happen when he scored, cutting in from the left and taking shots, and was def a lot better on the left than right side. At Hearts he's getting balls played to him inside the box and scoring goals from someone else doing the work setting them up, glad it's working out for him though, keeps that form up and might even get a Scotland call up.

LIVIFOREVER Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 (edited) Interview with Martindale talking about Bruce Anderson getting close to first team games again, also mentions how Boyes and Penrice are coming along. Although Penrice came on against Killie so looks a bit further along than the other two. All three are playing in reserve games at least, and haven't had any flare ups, which is good.

The Wrong Car Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 Sounds like the international break is coming at a good time. Goncalves, Guthrie and Anderson closer to being match-fit, plus Boyes to come in, pretty much means the squad is full strength minus Parkes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy.1995 Posted September 22, 2022 Share Posted September 22, 2022 Sounds like Guthrie is only a minor knock.Feels like Bruce is treading on eggshells at the moment,just don't know when we'll see him back to full fitness.As for Goncalves, juries been out for long enough on him.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Goncalves scored in a 2-1 defeat to Dunfermline in a reserves game, so at least he's managed to get a goal, just needs to do it in the Premiership now. Always seems to be a bit off positionally when going for goal, maybe his fitness levels improving will get him there for scoring some goals. Yeah good news about Guthrie, the extra week off between games should see him fit to start against St Mirren, will hopefully see Bruce getting some game time coming on as a sub too. He's played in a few reserve games and not broken down so that bodes well for his ankle injury not flaring back up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATLIS Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Looks like us and Rangers are holding up the new Sky deal. Neither club have responded. It's a woeful deal, glad we're making a stand. The league needs 11-1 in favour for it to pass. It'll allow Sky to show 4 games at each stadium per season instead of just 3, so more fixtures being moved for a petty sum on top of what we get. Hopefully this is a chance we can restructure the entire deal and get what we deserve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troy.1995 Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Never going to happen imo.Sky rules unfortunately. We're in the Premier League and have to put up with these ridiculous decisions. Friday nights,Sunday midays etc.Fans being short changed as usual. But money talks I guess however unpopular. Price for ongoing relative progression in our case.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Wrong Car Posted September 29, 2022 Share Posted September 29, 2022 Given our decent start with Pittman - Omeonga - Holt, plus Sean Kelly and Stephen Kelly being in the squad, I'd say it makes sense to sent him to the "Welcome to Scottish Football" bootcamp known as Arbroath. He looked decent in pre-season, bit suspect at CB but a good move to gain fitness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once the league started we've played our normal midfield from last season and he hasn't had much of a chance to get into the team. Looked comfortable on the ball, and as you say, a big strong laddie, hopefully does well for you and gets a decent run of games to show he's worth getting into our team like Nouble did. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIVIFOREVER Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 (edited) According to this article, our rearranged game against Celtic is Wed 21st December. Aberdeen vs Rangers and Celtic vs Livingston given new fixtures dates after postponement during Queen’s death mourning period - Football Scotland Quote It will be both clubs second game back after the World Cup with Rangers due to face Hibs at Ibrox on December 17, while Celtic will take on Aberdeen at Pittodrie on the same day. It also means both sides have five games in 15 days over the festive period, finishing with an Old Firm derby at Ibrox on January 2. Typical reporting not interested in anything but Sevco and Celtic, as if we all don't have the same amount of games to play. Our fixtures for that period will be With Celtic away on the 21st Dec, making it 5 games too.

VincentGuerin Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 (edited) Hello @LIVIFOREVER Let's leave the Tinpot thread alone. Now, you accused me of 'making shit up' on the other thread. I'd like you to back this up. Here are my assertions about your franchise. 1) Your community stole a community asset when it took Meadowbank away from its fanbase (against their will) and changed its name. The inducement of the stadium and the involvement of local government makes this exactly the same as what we see in American sports. 2) Your continued claim on Meadowbank's history is grossly offensive to anyone who understands what a football club is. You are not the guardians of their history, you are thieves. 3) Livi fans' false comparisons with the change from Ferranti either display dishonesty, willful ignorance, or lack of understanding of why that change was made. It was a local move to a stadium that would allow the club to play SFL fixtures with a name change away from a commercial one to one that reflected the area they played in. To even attempt to paint this as in any way similar to Livingston stealing another community's club is idiotic, and again, offensive. So, tell me what I'm making up.

Do you think your moral stance against Livi is in any way original? We hear this sort of shit all the time, albeit rarely with as much bitterness. The majority of us are simply not interested in Meadowbank Thistle. Save your breath. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ATLIS Posted October 5, 2022 Share Posted October 5, 2022 I really love Almondview podcast but holy f**k the Dolly Menga story on the episode when they had Martindale on is utterly phenomenal. Holding the ball in the corner 1-0 down against Rangers because he thought it was 0-0. Getting caught in the bookies at Da Vinci's scoffing Greggs. Spending all his wages at the bookies and on FIFA. Christmas tree up in April. What a fucking nightmare of a guy, I cannot believe trying to handle him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
