Shadwell Dog Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 I think it's also more suitable a system down south though where if you can kick the ball forwards your automatically worth about ten million quid these days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we're going to honour Crunchie by playing a game with the current squad then better to do it at a league game and try to add a few 00s onto the gate then do the official opening at half time. A bit like a more official 'Latapy Day' If going down the route of a separate game then maybe a legends match would be more appealing for folk to come and watch. Falkirk legends v a Hibs & Chelsea legends select for example. A bit like the Andy Nicol game where there are some really big names (albeit we'd only get older guys now). People would turn out I'm sure to see some of the best names we had playing with Crunchie v a team of folk like Pat Nevin, Steve Clarke etc. Great this initiative is finally happening though - well deserved recognition for the wee man. I see what you’re saying but we’ll just keep plugging it like mad when the club get a friendly arranged. Won’t necessarily be just about the game itself but everything surrounding it. Get some pre match and half time entertainment, bring back as many ex team mates as we can hold functions before and after, just make a great day of it for everyone to enjoy and mostly Crunchie himself. Deserves to stand alone and if everyone here helps in spreading the word and getting as many folk along as possible then hopefully get a decent attendance. If we do that then will make the club a good few bob too! Edited August 14, 2021 by Guest 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're an excellent side these days. Ivan Toney is a cracking player but when Brentford bought him he'd only ever played at league one level and yet they paid 10 million quid for him. He's probably worth about 30 now even though he's only played one top flight game. The transfer market down south is crazy . I mean your very limited here on how much you are going to get for players even if they are ripping up the championship or league one. 100k if you're very lucky no matter how good they are whilst jobbers down south are moving about for millions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latapythelegend Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 No Dixon today so Lemon is in and Miller is at right back. Not feeling as confident as I did an hour ago. Miller will need plenty protection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Hall is murder at all times but is slightly less so when he's next to an organiser. I've not seen Lemon at all but that feels like a very shaky combination. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ranaldo Bairn Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Airdrie with a poor start to the season and desperate for points? Our defence somewhat... insecure at times... what could go wrong? Think we might just have to outscore them here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadwell Dog Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Saw that one coming. Two soft fouls when caught on the ball in the middle of the park. If you're going to be captain you need to think with your head more. Ref was desperate to give him his marching orders. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiddy Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 What an idiot. You've got the game under control at 2-0 & he's thrown them a lifeline? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt Bilko Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Not ideal but let's see if the team has some character to grind out the result. Airdrie should come at us just need to nick a goal on the counter attack. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tea and Busquets Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Felt that was a harsh second yellow. He turned back inside and had no idea the man was there. How their centre half hasn’t been at least booked is a disgrace. A kick off in the middle of the park and a high boot to Ben Hall’s face. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieBairn Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Nervous wreck towards the end, thought Hall and Lemon were brilliant defensively. Gary Miller is utterly hopeless. Thought Leon McCann struggled he was getting caught out by the same diagonal all game. Superb goal by Keena. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
