ArabFC Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Whilst 99% of arabs probably accept we are doomed, a win in Dingwall might start get a few eyebrows twitching. So probably best we lose Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunglebonce Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 There will be few games as difficult as the Hamilton one just past, but I'm not expecting an easy win here in the slightest. One cause for hope for United is that all three of County's first team full-backs are injured or suspended (to return for the Killie game a week tomorrow and the cup tie vs United a week later). So County will either go with players out of position in the full-back areas, play one or two of the u20s, or go to three at the back and play 3-5-2, with Gardyne and Murdoch/Franks on the flanks. I'm not against the latter option on paper. There would be three pretty good centre-backs accommodated, the wingers in a 4-4-2 are expected to track all the way back anyway so it might not affect their game too much, and it suits McIntyre's preference to pick all of McShane, Woods and Irvine in central midfield. In a sense, County have the personnel to play it, without a left-footed wing-back However, in reality County are probably better with just a couple of players out of position than a completely unfamiliar system for one game. I'd go with a centre-back (Boyd, Robertson) at right-back and young McLaughlin at left-back, but it could be anyone. County have plenty goals in them, but how many will they concede?

Mark Connolly Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Must win for us in order to continue the false hope of survival, must win for them in order to both keep out of the playoff battle and keep in the European hunt. 0-0 it is. All goals and excitement to be saved for the relatively meaningless cup tie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Won't be going to this. It would be different if John Souttar had signed for County, I would have travelled to Dingwall just to boo him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waffelz Posted February 22, 2016 Share Posted February 22, 2016 Staying over for this. 8am car up then all day Sesh in dingwall/Inverness. Train day for the Scottish a week later is obviously the bigger game though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

banana Posted February 23, 2016 Share Posted February 23, 2016 Utterly irrelevant if you have 3 or 30 fullbacks out injured, we have no wide players capable of taking advantage. Hope Demel is ok, didn't put a foot wrong in the half hour Arabzone Hearts highlights. Same lineup that started, please. A point would be an 'acceptable' return from a game I otherwise expect us to lose by two goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ando Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 I'm back in the maybe we can stay up mood, ffs. Hamilton and Killie have Hearts and Celtic (can't remember which for each) so a win here should bring us closer to the pack. Maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerhouse7 Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 Can't believe people still believe we can stay up! Team I'd start the same team as Saturday but drop Pongolle for Murray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
