Jilted John Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Had almost forgotten all about Victoria. Although he’s not been great, it’s good to have another body available! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enigma Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Had almost forgotten all about Victoria. Although he’s not been great, it’s good to have another body available! He’s hardly had a chance. I was fairly excited about him when he signed and thought at the time he’d be a big player for us. I don’t think he’s looked bad when he has played either. Let’s hope he can kick on make a worthy contribution. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jilted John Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Lewis Allan not far away eitherWe have definitely missed him. I was a bit critical of him before his injury but I think we have struggled for a bit of physical presence without him in the side. It’ll be really interesting to pick a front line once we have Armstrong, Anderson, Gullan, Victoria, Bowie, Baird, Allan and Smith available! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxRover Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Joao is a great slot in to bring a attacker with immense pace on against a tired team, in my opinion. Spencer misses Forfar, we’ll see how much that impacts our home form. Any word yet on Miller and MacDonald? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got the impression he loves it here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith_Raver Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 Victoria's close control and trickery around the penalty area gives us another option, especially later in the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every interview he's said he's happy at Rovers and is enjoying playing under McGlynn and Smith.McDonald should be back for next week according to the man himself on Twitter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he’s been one of our more underrated players this season. I was also fully expecting him and Miller to be announced as out for 6-8 weeks given Allan, Victoria and Hendry are close to returning. Crazy to think McGlynn has been back for over a year now and I don’t think he has ever had a fully fit squad to choose from. Obviously Vaughan is out long term so that isn’t going to change but everything crossed we could be in the situation in a few weeks where some decent players don’t even make the bench. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea, I think that’s why JMcG used him heavily as a 70th minute replacement at the beginning of this year. He must be a nightmare for a tired defense. And for those misunderstanding my comment, Joao is the player that fills the quick attacker slot late in a game...jezzzzz.

Ro Sham Bo Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 There must be at least an outside chance of Hendry being back for the Forfar game to take Spencer's place in the side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given he didn’t even start rehab until late last week, at the earliest, and that three to four weeks is the minimum normal return period...plus I would expect extreme care to be taken with his return...Montrose seems more likely, but the pitch at Links Park is over four years old, so there might be a bit of reluctance to that too. It would be best to have him play before the Airdrie/Falkirk pair of games thou. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 I would highly doubt he’s thrown on early at a pitch that has fucked both him and Vaughan in the past. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
