Trogdor Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 (edited) Some great work from Chalmers at the first goal. To come away with that ball between the two Raith players and then a nice cross. Was aslo great movement from Mullen to get on the end of it and finish. I'd really like to get Mullen on a pre contract. Dipo does very well at the second. Nice header from Mullen as well. Dipo had a tough shift yesterday pretty much man marked and hands all over him for most of the game. Clancy didn't seem too bothered. Mullen is always better on the right. I'm not sure why we started him on the left? To protect Reading? That doesn't make much sense either as you'd think we'd want to protect Finn playing out of position. It would be great if Chalmers could add a few goals. He likes to take shots but needs to be testing the goalie more. I thought young Finn was excellent. Such hunger and desire. If he keeps playing like that he will easily displace Houston, Reading or McAllister at fullback. It was nice to have a fullback pushing forward and not afraid to put a cross in. We've been missing that all season. Edited December 4, 2022 by Trogdor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they can, whether they will is a different story. I hope you do win it. Best of luck 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It shows how effective he is in that role as if he's not playing yesterday the ball is probably back with Albinson 10 seconds later instead of resulting in a goal. Of the players out of contract in the summer he would be the next one I'd be getting to sign an extension. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We weren't great but we never looked in any real danger and with this Ayr side you're always confident that they will score goals one way or another. As others have said, the makeshift defence was excellent and I don't think McGinty lost one aerial confrontation and McAllister slotted in very well beside him as he harried and tackled everything on the deck and of course Ecrepont was brilliant at RB and adds another attacking threat with his quality whipped crosses, even on the wrong side of the park !! Reading was pretty decent today also, especially after his recent form dip. I don't know if anyone else heard the nonsense from the so called "pundits" on Radio Scotland post match, however they reckon Dipo will be going to Queens Park or Dundee in January and that we'll struggle to make the play offs. The general consensus was that the top 4 would be Queens Park, Partick, Dundee and Inverness with only Leanne Crichton talking any sort of sense. The sad thing is that a couple of them (after making crazy statements) said they didn't actually know much about the sides or ANYTHING about their financial backers. Honestly, what a joke our journalists and media are in this country. If it's not Rangers or Celtic or their "mates" then they have no interest whatsoever, yet are being paid to give an opinion and have a discussion on subjects that they are completely ignorant about, you honestly couldn't make it up....... All the more ridiculous given they interviewed Mathie before the match, he dug them up for their previous comments on Dipo and outlined that it would take a large bid as he was on a legnthy contract. Leanne Crichton seems to think we will just accept any bid for him as long as it's not in our league. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, McKenzie is very adept at making a nuisance of himself and forcing mistakes out of the opposition. He did very well at the first goal to block the Raith defender and give Chalmers a bit more space. He does a lot of good work off the ball (incidentally, I hate that phrase) which is easily missed. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like McKenzie as well and would definitely get him on another two year deal , he isn't the finished article but I think he'll get there . However if we were to land another striker in the window that can add ten goals in the second half of the season or letting Dipo get hooked at about 70 min I wouldn't be disappointed. On Mullin , the boy is class . Get him signed on a pre contract before Livingston change their mind . He seems to have the attitude and fitness that Bully likes . Hopefully the deal gets done . Chalmers well ! Still got another year on his deal in Dundee and if releaced would have some big clubs sniffing.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only one defeat in twenty for the top four, you wouldn't think that was sustainable and someone/s due a rough spell. Not sure I could handle the stress if it was to continue like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How much were they? It was although perhaps could have had more jam in it. A tad pricey at £1.80 (I think) but all for a good cause. A perfect companion for a coffee.
