Tony Stark(s Park) Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 I don’t really think it matters when we are at home in my opinion. I think it would be naive to go into either game, home or away and not just go all out attack. Sit Nat on the halfway line in front of the defenders and everyone else’s main priority is balls in the box and looking to play in Nisbet. Defence is absolutely shambolic and whether it is in this round or the next one you can almost guarantee they will be the ones that lose it for us.Ps. Even if Vaughan is even 20% fit we should play him anyway. Stick him on the edge of the box and it’ll be all good [emoji23] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nat Wedderburn has his talents, but it's a mistake to put him in that role, even as his physical bulk would seem to recommend him for it, his chronic lack of mobility works against it. He needs another guy beside him. For us a 3 man midfield with someone in front of two positional mids is the best we can hope for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to take a ‘we’re gonna score one more than you’ approach, as favoured by Fat Les in 1998, in these play off games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nat is much better with the ball at his feet with men around him than having to stop a a counter attack or protect the defense. Its the role barjonas took up on Saturday and had a good game doing so. Saturday at home would be better for me but it really doesn't matter what way round the fixtures are. We have to get the job done home and away regardless of what day they are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone giving it the 'we should play the youth' chat should be made to watch that on repeat. I don't mean that these guys will never make it, though obviously a number won't but even those with potential clearly have a distance to go. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although having said that, the goalkeeper looks quite handy... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brashy's Boots Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Was gonna post something myself about the fife cup showing but was wary of getting pelters for criticising the reserves. There's a very good reason they're not featuring in the first team. #milesoff 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wardy Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Aye some quite poor mistakes there, but any worse than the “defending” up at Arbroath or indeed against brechin on Saturday? All that young team needed was King Kev and it probably would have been 3-2 to rovers... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
