Chinatoon Bairn Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Not going to write anyone off after half an hour in the first friendly of the season, that being said, that number 9.. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not too shabby in terms of numbers I thought, given it's a Friday night and the trains being patchy at best to get back there. Mmm, best of luck in Division 1 next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshmallo Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 10 minutes ago, FFC 1876 said: Young trialist who started the game in the middle of the park was tidy on the ball and got on it quite a lot but he never once looked interested in making a tackle, just jockeyed his opponent until they popped the ball off He took the ball off Lafferty twice, got his body in the road and won fouls both times. Did the same with another player off the top of my head. He flitted in and out the game but you can't say he "never once looked interested in making a tackle". 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tea and Busquets Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 That number 9 trialist looked and played like Dennon Lewis. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I honestly can't remember him making a tackle but he did look tidy on the ball, really reminded me and looked like a young Fraser Murray. Really tidy on the ball but not really interested in the battling side of the game. Did only look 18/19 right enough so hopefully we'll have another look at him.

Ah right I couldn't make the game just going by the team sheets on the club page. How did we play overall? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FalkirkLad Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 I’m sure someone will tell me otherwise but thought Hetherington had a good game and think he will actually really benefit from McGinn beside him to let him get about a bit more. Think McGlynn pretty much alluded to the fact he’ll go get a striker on loan when the prem sides have sussed out their teams so I wouldn’t worry to much about the number 9 as it stands. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alonso Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 Hopefully I'm wrong but the number 9 looked a bit like the lad from Southampton the FH were linking us with the other day...tho in fairness my eyesight ain't the best these days... Unfortunately it's good enough to recognise Jamie Wilson...yes he was definitely there 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rocco Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 28 minutes ago, FFC 1876 said: First game of preseason and a fair few injuries so I'll try not to be too harsh. Young trialist who started the game in the middle of the park was tidy on the ball and got on it quite a lot but he never once looked interested in making a tackle, just jockeyed his opponent until they popped the ball off. Mackie was impressive, played out of position at centre back but he was so composed on the ball, actually wouldn't mind seeing him in the middle of the park as he always looked to play rather than hoofing it up the park. Oliver wasn't up to much but it was a difficult night playing upfront on his own for the first half and the trialist striker that came on in the second half was absolutely brutal, which is frustrating when you've got the local lad Malcolm on the bench would have preferred to see him. It was never a 4-1 game but we created he haw aside from a few corners. Funny how opinions differ. I genuinely thought he got stuck in and made a nuisance of himself, which Lafferty certainly didn’t like 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

roman_bairn Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 That number 9 trialist looked and played like Dennon Lewis.He failed with a simple header and also had a shot blocked. Otherwise didn’t get a sniff. Was hardly helped by being surrounded by youngsters to be fair… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grangemouth Bairn Posted June 24, 2022 Share Posted June 24, 2022 These are not great quality but a couple of photos I took tonight. I must admit to having a wee tear in my eye when the great man came out to ‘Local Hero’ - I’m so glad I went along tonight to pay my respects to the ‘Legend’ because it’ll be a long, long time before we see another one like him. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
