smpar Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Not sure what your point is there. They beat you in a playoff to go up. As in, they were better than you. It was pointed out to us that we must be shite because we finished a whole 15 points behind St Mirren. We were also only 3 points behind a team that got promoted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do you keep biting to obvious trolling? Unless you are pretending to bite as an elaborate way of trolling me... Delighted to see Stevie Craw join full-time. Him and Faiss at the club at the same time is like something out of a time travel show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoBNob Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 Couldn't watch the Peterhead game but going by the highlights we looked decent enough, what formation did we play with what players in what positions? Purely going by the highlights, Connolly and Higginbotham both looked central? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ashcroft, Durnan and Devine in the middle, with J Longridge and Williamson as wing backs. Thomson, Craigen and Higgy as the starting midfield three, with Hippo and L Longridge up top.

Purely going by the highlights, Connolly and Higginbotham both looked central? PotM is right with the lineup. Higgy was playing central for the whole game aye, Connolly played pretty much alongside him when he came on as a sub. Ashcroft and Thomson came off at the same time, with young McCann and Connolly coming on. McCann joined Hippolyte up front, L.Longridge was put out wide and Connolly played in the middle with Higgy, Craigen played wider on the right and we had 4 at the back. Connolly and Higgy looked really dangerous together, albeit playing against a tiring League Two side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you could, but don't.

Sounds pretty interesting, AJ played around with a 5-3-2 last year before ditching it, wonder if he'll persevere? Longridge, Connolly, Higgy and Craigan is a wild midfield, can imagine it would've been fun to watch. Any reason why Faiss and Vincent weren't in the squad? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poet of the Macabre Posted July 19, 2018 Share Posted July 19, 2018 AJ has infrequently tried a back three on several occasions but always seems to abandon the idea fairly quickly. Much like me on Football Manager when I try a change of tactics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems quite keen on it and it does seem less chaotic than we have been in the past. When he's leaving craigen as the most defensive midfielder the back 5 are being pretty much left to do all the defending by themselves. Lots of attacking flair there tho, i'd be interested to see how it would work if beadling was available 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
