Aberdeen Cowden Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 Anyone know why we always kick towards the Station first half? Remember my father telling me we always used to do the opposite. Just about every other team kicks towards their own support in the second half. At CP we’d have the sun and any wind behind us. Maybe a moot point but we need all the help we can get and what we have been doing so far doesn’t work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember something similar being done in the championship by swapping the dugouts to the other side of the pitch not sure if this was to try and change our luck though as might have been to do with something else. Certainly should be open to all sorts of ideas as having not won in the league since August isn't good enough and absolutely embarrassing for the club. Only positives to take are the players put in real effort yesterday but to be critical you have to win your games. Draws are not even good enough as we are now cut adrift with the likes of City managing to pick up points. We can forget about catching Clyde and must beat them next week although Cox is absent. He needs another striker who can support him up front reckon. Fingers crossed next Saturday is a win finally Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t always control clearances but he got his head to almost every one. We have no one, absolutely no one who can do that, just a load of wee guys or players that can’ t jump. When was the last time we scored with a header from a set piece? Terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iateallthepies Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 If we had played Reilly from the start we might have won yesterday. The midfield seemed to do better without Mullen. Gilfilan won't solve all our problems but is probably worth signing for his attitude alone I am not in favour of booting the ball up the park but it should be mandatory in Rumsby's case.

Kelheart Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 It's an uphill struggle for you guys now but keep believing n you never know , thing is teams can still make playoffs so all fighting n scrapping for positional points making it harder for you to pick up the precious points you need, hope you catch a break , a flukey own goal ,dodgy penalty anything to turn it around n win a game, good luck cowden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowden316 Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 We just keep getting bad luck for our club with no breaks. Just found out that Robbie Buchanan has a broken hand!! With Cox being suspended for tomorrow's crucial game I am not inspired with Malone leading from the front. No disrespect to the guy and really hope he comes good and finds some form but that was a howler on Saturday and he still does not appear to be match fit. Might link up with Reilly/Smith tomorrow.

Velazquez Blue Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Go with three upfront tomorrow. Muirhead, Connolly and Reilly. What do we have to lose? We’ve got to be bold. The players have shown a bit of fight but not had the breaks. That referee had an agenda last week. We should be trying to juggle the midfield/ attack a bit.

Malone is hopeless contributes nothing. I really can't understand how he is getting a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
