FifeSons Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Came across this in a bar in Amsterdam last night. Anyone on here responsible? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi, did you know that Emile Heskey's middle name is Ivanhoe? Did you also know that Dumbarton beat Bonnyrig Rose today?

pleslie99 Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 Right, who was asking for Stevie Farrell to be sacked at the start of the season? Would never of heard me come out with such nonsense......... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
super-son Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 We don’t look particularly great but the other teams just don’t have enough of a cutting edge to score against our organised defence at the moment. Which is a fantastic sign regardless of what we are doing at the other end of the pitch.We limited Rose to 1 chance the whole 90 minutes which was a great chance but at league 2 level it’s far from a guaranteed goal which was demonstrated today.It’s quite the change from the “if you score 3, we will score 4” era of Ian Murray but I am enjoying it for the moment.Long may it continue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't there today, but that describes most of our 7 league games so far, all of which were wins. Clearly, we're a bit of a one trick pony, but it's a good trick and we play at a low enough level that that trick is the difference. A worse team would be grinding out 0-0 draws based on our stubborn defence and workmanlike performances, but we're scoring winning goals and keeping more out. That's champions form. Thus far. After 7 wins from 7 matches, 21 points and a 100% record, we should be celebrating. It won't last. It can't. But we have the foundations there of a promotion team. If the wheels come off in the winter then so be it, but all successful teams know how to win ugly. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
microdave Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 There have been a few teams that have won this league at a canter like Rangers, Queen's Park, Cove Rangers and Kelty Hearts. None of them won their first seven matches. That is a stupendous achievement for our club. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sons fan 1872 Posted September 17, 2022 Share Posted September 17, 2022 (edited) Got to say Lynas has been absolutely terrific and his energy is phenomenal. Seems a good defender and always willing to run Edited September 17, 2022 by Sons fan 1872 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BallochSonsFan Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 I wouldn't be against freshening things up a bit. I don't think Orsi gives us enough creativity and Ally Love was miles off it yesterday. I'd like to see McLean back in the side. Also wouldn't be against giving the young Morton loanee a chance as well. I think Byrne would benefit from a bit of help and support from his wide forwards. Defence has been rock solid. McNiff isnt great going forward, but he knows how to defend. Buchanan is taking charge of things at the back and Carswell is reading the game really well. Lynas has an incredible work rate. Also helps that Ryan Blair s in front of them. Blair won't get plaudits for Prilo type passing, but he always seems to be where he needs to be. He wins the ball and retains possession well until he can find a teammate with a pass. One of those players that you don't tend to value until you don't have them in the team and you're that much easier to play through. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curler Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 (edited) Looks like we are the only senior team in the UK with a 100% record. I bet the media make no reference to it. Edited September 18, 2022 by Curler 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the snudge Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Scottish Cup draw at 6pm. I fancy a glamorous away day to drumchapel 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
microdave Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 The Scottish cup draw is on twitter, facebook and YouTube at 6 o'clock. I'm hoping we get someone we've never played before and there's a fair chance that will happen as over twenty of the forty in the draw fall into that category. Cue Albion Rovers or Annan since we play them either side of the cup weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cremola foam Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 I reckon 70 points wins the league. We have 21. Need another 49 from 29 games, which would be 10 draws and 6 wins. Just saying. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O'Kelly Isley III Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 As if things weren't going well enough I see that wee hobgoblin Hartley has been sacked as Hartlepool manager. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are currently fourth in WOSL Premier Division with 9 points from 5 games. Fortunately they are at home to the Talbot the week after this tie so I very much doubt they'll be much up for our visit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
