Loon From Outta Toon Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 Clearly the fans of both sides aren’t looking forward to this game much with no thread made yet. We’ll be much changed again due to suspension, be interesting to see how Jim shuffles everyone about. Hopefully Easton starts, was completely baffled with his exclusion from the starting 11 last week. I’ll take a scrappy 1-0 win.

UnitedLoon63 Posted February 15, 2018 Share Posted February 15, 2018 With no centre half’s, i’d take a draw now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePoohBear Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Two weeks since our very poor performance against East Fife a think the players will be wanting this game to come asap. Heard they had a very intense training session in glasgow on saturday. Forfar never a easy team to beat at station park so will be difficult. Hope to see thommo back in the middle of the park to tighting things up. Maybe change the wingers with another game on Tuesday night against Arbroath.

Loonytoons Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 We have gotten into a habit of starting games brightly then going all to pot after 10 minutes or so.Should've/could've taken something from last week's game, we badly need Hilson back to give us something up front.

Should've/could've taken something from last week's game, we badly need Hilson back to give us something up front. Correct. Bright start for the first 10 at Alloa, and great pressure for the last 10, in between - Hurst & Aitken partneship needs game time to gel. Too far apart most of the time, though they both put in a good shift I thought, especially Matty. Eddie looked knackered, after 20 mins or so of the 1st half, on the left of midfield. The young lad Dingwall seemed lost on the right side, not sure whether to go forward or help at the back. Did better in the closing stages in a more central rôle. At the back - Bain & Trav gave their usual 100%. Darren was left trying to deal with 2 Alloa lads, on more than one occaision, due to lack of help from midfield, especially in the first half. One thing I didn't care for was Andy Munro gobbing off at anybody within earshot. Where was he for the goal? I don't know if someone had a word in his shell-like at half time but he wasn't doing nearly as much complaining/shouting in the second period. As you say Hilson back would be a big plus but with the suspensions tomorrow ... heaven knows. All IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two or three times in the first half he came way out of central defence to win headers and was beaten on every occasion leaving us exposed at the back. He didn't do it in the second half, might be the reason Munro wasn't shouting. Aye, Munro to blame for the goal, hope Travis gave him an earful for that.I thought Malone looked lost rather than knackered, no idea where he was meant to be playing and neither did he.

Even if we lose the next 11 games he WILL be our Manager next season. This fact allows him to continue his petty vandetta against our most experienced and highest paid midfielder just to show who is boss. If Scott McBride does not start tomorrow I'm OUT.

Loon From Outta Toon Posted February 17, 2018 Author Share Posted February 17, 2018 Would like to see Peters & Hurst start up top together, Peters looked good when he came on last week at Alloa & Hurst looked to have came into the game a bit more when Peters came on before he got hooked for that hopeless MacIver!

Jupiter Jazz Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 That first half from us was something else. Electric going forward. Millar running the game, Easton unplayable and what a difference Hilson made. No failures though with Malone turning in his best performance in a Loons shirt.

senorsoupe Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 With Celtic playing tomorrow I decided to choose Stranraer as my team of the day based on an enjoyable FM save I once had with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
