NELLY 1 Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 Hows sam denham doing?. Lovely kid and in my opinion good footballer who could potentially go back up levels. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is injured, must be 6 months since or happened, so seems he's needing an op that he's out this long. I believe we've been trying to get a loanee in, but struggling, as parent clubs want guarantees on playing time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lovely kid and in my opinion good footballer who could potentially go back up levels. Playing very well. I'm off the opinion both Sam and Aaron Steele our centre backs both have the capability to play at higher levels. They are getting their chance at East Fife to develop and they are taking it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m in no doubt that we will be going with Fleming as first choice , Gallacher as second choice. The 20’s keeper is only 16/17 so should not be pitched into any league game at his age and experience although we did do it last year with Liam Campbell at Cove but he was let go at end of last season. In response to another post, Sam Dunham is a real find and is doing very well with Aaron Steele in centre of defence. Wouldn’t be surprised if he gets another shot at a higher level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sammytroot Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 With regard to last night's game,I thought that there a lot of positives.For me both Denham and Steele are proving to be a formidable partnership, and are both still teenagers.If I was the manager,I would be offering the 2 players a longer term contract. Mikey Cunningham and Jack Healey both had their best games for EF and earned their right to be in the pool of players. Joao Balde was the player of the match and will definitely play at a higher level. As others have said,EF is definitely the club to come to ,to be given a chance. I feel we definitely need experienced cover at Central defence and probably centre forward ,whilst allowing the younger players to develop in the under 20's as opposed to being bench fillers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't agree more, get this done. I'm guessing they've played together before whilst at St Johnstone & although new to us, not entirely strangers to one another. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhoAmI Posted September 4, 2022 Share Posted September 4, 2022 I think yesterdays found us out badly. We play the ball along the back line well enough but there is no outlet other to hoist it up the park. We lack a midfielder to take the ball off the back three and burst forward with it to feed forwards. We do not have height up front to be hoisting it up the park from the back although Shepherd tries hard to get underneath it but generally lacks support. Th first goal at Stranraer, the Dumbarton goal and the shot that hit the post soon after all came from the right back position so I would suggest that a back three isn’t working. We really did not look like scoring yesterday after we went behind. All in all yesterdays game was one of the worst I have sat through from a footballing point of view. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it was just our extra legs at the end or desperation but we seemed to be able to win the ball back with Ryan Shiavone in the middle. I thought his battling gave the others a wee lift. But in the end Sons dealt with it. Not sure what Craw can do to make us more of a threat in final third. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeh agree that our options are limited, and also agree that Schiavone gave us a little bit more dig but really didn’t look like scoring. Could do with a couple more signings but are the right players out there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Kebab Posted September 5, 2022 Author Share Posted September 5, 2022 A proven, experienced goal scorer is a must, we are creating chances that such a player would thrive on, perhaps a loan deal with somebody who has fallen out of favour at his Club perhaps??? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
