Guest bernardblack Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 I heard someone on Saturday shout to Reilly “all you do is play the ball sideways”Yeah....I hate when we keep possession and have the ball so the other team can’t score.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theSilverFox Posted August 22, 2018 Share Posted August 22, 2018 Without doubt Easton is our most skilled player and can turn a game but he infuriates me with his feigning injury, his discipline, his diving and how ball greedy he is. It's going to be a tight division this season with every team likely beating each other at some point so we need a stable hard working team, emphasis on team. Dylan is maybe a luxury we can live without? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those 75 minutes or so last Saturday were pretty horrendous viewing, Easton lit up the last 15 and almost stole 2 points for us. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easton did indeed light up the last 15, but once again no end product Over the last year how many games has he produced a performance? Silverfox is spot on, a very skillful player but a luxury player that we may not require this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it results in having to put up with more turgid displays like Saturday, then I'd say as a paying punter we definitely need him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opinions eh Let's look at how Jim Weir has utilised Dylan Easton recently. V Dumbarton. Dropped. 5mins from bench. V Livingston Colts. Starts. Not great. V Stranraer. Dropped. 20 mins from bench. Singled out in post match interview as having no end product. V Livingston Colts. Starts. Better performance. Sent off for Violent Conduct after 25 mins. Gets Death Stare from J.W. on his way off. If Jim can get any sort of deal ,Easton is on his way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carrying a knock at Dumbarton so not risked. Jim then feels it's not right to change a winning team against Stranraer also doesn't use the words "no end product". Prior to these games he was raving about Dylan. Edited August 23, 2018 by Jupiter Jazz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nowhere near as expensive as I thought. I have a stag do the weekend before and the wedding a couple of weeks after so currently trying to think how I could justify it but very tempting How are these travel plans coming along? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loon From Outta Toon Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 If we lose Easton, I can see the crowds dwindling even more & if we lose him to a club in this league it’ll come back to bite us.Just find it criminal that a lot of folk are slating arguably one of our best players? Crazy the mindset of some of these fans.The players around him aren’t exactly helping much? Baird hasn’t exactly hit the ground running, he’s been a bit of a let down so far despite scoring two goals. Fraser’s been out with little niggles so hasn’t really influenced in any games. Hilson’s been his usual not 100% but still gives 100% effort. Reilly’s tried to influence things but with nobody willing to offer options has been forced to either try to hit it long or pass sideways. MacKintosh as well doesn’t do enough for me, fair enough he runs about and puts in effort but he’s got nothing else to offer whatsoever, he’s just a squad filler type of player for me, just fits in wherever he’s needed to very little effect. Bain at right wing’s a strange one, don’t think he does enough in that role personally. Moore looks okay, but would rather see him come on from the bench. And then you’ve got Starkey & Coupe who aren’t good enough. We have very little attacking options and some fans are singling out the one main attacking influence! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
++Ammo - Airdrie++ Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 This. Plus a share of the pool of 2nd round games, plus a chance for the Irish to experience Loons on Tour.The amount of Irish folk I've bumped into, absolutely raging you lot got beat.So inconsiderate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He can be hit and miss, if you pardon the pun, but that's the same for most guys and often opens up tight defences by his passing or dribbling skills. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly and wins pens and free-kicks around the box. Clapped off by Falkirk fans for a reason.

tbsouth Posted August 23, 2018 Share Posted August 23, 2018 There is nobody doubting Dylans skill level, the question is over the last year has he done enough to warrant a starting place, i am struggling to think of a defence splitting pass that everyone talks about. Apart from the free kick at Hampden his shooting has been really poor and the having to beat 4 or 5 players or having 3 too many touches drives you insane at times! If an offer came in then i think he would go, as for the gentleman saying Murray is just a squad filler and claiming Starkey and Coupe aren't good enough i think you really need to stop posting utter tripe on here! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
