Rover the Moon Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 This is the most entertaining game in Scottish football over the last four years. Probably. Not got the oomph to check but the number of goals in this fixture has been mental. Er, apart from that 0-0 bore last season.Rovers 6-7 Sons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIT THE CHANNEL Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Just listened to Gary Locke's pre-game interview. Good news is Cuthbert is back, as is Chris Johnson which gives another option/competition for places in the wide area. Diabolical news is that J Thomson is missing the 'next couple of games' so ill likely be missing until Hibs at home. That is a really big blow. As mentioned above our record without him is atrocious. However, if we perform a bit better and cut out the cheap goals (please please have Cuthbert in the sticks) I am still confident we can win the game. Beers from 11 so will be good up until 3pm, hopefully the result makes the 5pm onwards beers sweet rather than bitter... 2-1 Crowd 1750 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 No Thomson is an absolute disaster, especially if he's out any length of time. Suppose the options are Matthews at RB, or three at the back (Bene, M'Voto, Davidson). We don't even have anyone who could really fill a right wing back slot, a Grant Anderson type, so I imagine it'll the usual 4-4-2 but with Matthews struggling. Cuthbert Matthews Bene M'Voto McHattieBarr Thompson Callachan CoustrainVaughanStewartWould be my team. No chance of it as McManus will start (not necessarily wrongly, tbf, I just think we need a shake up top) and I have a feeling Davidson will too, either in the 4-5-1 / 4-3-3 we saw last week, or with Callachan moving wide in a 4-4-2.

Hank Scorpio Posted September 23, 2016 Share Posted September 23, 2016 Jason Thomson perhaps requiring surgery on his knee, apparently. Our injury list every fucking season is unreal. Every single year we get fucked by it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easily Hearts 2014-15 without him. You may as well just not turn up and just forfeit the points. A 3-0 loss is far better than what we'd do to you.

Raith Against The Machine Posted September 24, 2016 Share Posted September 24, 2016 How has Skacel been for Raith? Low impact. He only started against Forfar and we lost. In games we've been leading, he's come off the bench and shored things up, but when we're chasing, he hasn't been very effective. He hasn't been actively poor, but certainly not setting the heather alight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
