Lichtie78 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 After today's spectacular win over Berwick, Albion Rovers are next up. Doubt Lindsay will be fit but Johnstone should be back so he'll be left back I assume. If Little hasn't fully recovered from his few knocks today id keep nicoll in at cb, some height to help cope with gemmell. I'd start with: Crawford Travis nicoll fisher Johnstone Linn Stewart hunter Whatley McBride McManus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albino Rover Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 The last time both these teams were in the fourth tier we made up the top 2. After good comebacks both teams should look to win this. The Arbroath squad looks good and I like the idea of a midfield five- something I wish Rovers would use. The good news is that our back four already picks itself- consistency was key in our promotion season, and with good discipline and some luck with injuries these four could do the job. In front of them I'd like two holding midfielders, with three playing off a hard-working front man, but dare say Young will stick with his winning team and go 4-4-2. As the more experienced tactician, I predict Allan Moore will have no trouble working around that set-up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cliftonphil Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Can't comment on Arbroath as yet to see them under Moore. Clever manager though so a worthy opponent and on the back of a very decent away win today your lot will have their tails up. I predict Rovers to dig in for a 2-2 draw. 2 red cards.

1320Lichtie Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I'd go 4-4-2 aswell. Crawford Travis Little Fisher Johnstone Will this be our back 4 all season....? Linn Whatley Nicoll McBride McManus Murray Be great to get 6 points from 2 games. I'm still worried about us at the back and would still like to see Hunter in at right back to see what like at some point. Maybe more signings during the week??? Hopefully Little gets the better of Gemmell. Stop him then your halfway there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodka Vic Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 If John Beaton is not the referee in this one I would say we have half a chance in this game. Is Kevin Nicol managing to stay injury free? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have a funny feeling we might see the 4-5-1 more away from home. 4-4-2 at Gayfield. As L23 said maybe a good shout putting Buchan in for his efforts yesterday. Really want to know who this defender we are supposedly getting on Monday is. Looking forward to league action being back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
