Bollan's horrible tactics of hump it to Kris is a major reason though. We haven’t had a left back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did wonder if he’s carrying an injury? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be good to put a face to the name! Superb. will be good to meet you. I shouldn't be too difficult to miss. I'll probably be the blind drunk bloke next to the drunk blind bloke!

PELE Posted March 5, 2019 Share Posted March 5, 2019 (edited) Looked promising at the start. Stopped with the hoofball and everyone looked up for the game. That quickly changed and we resorted to type. I assume Allan was injured and where was Henvey? Has he asked to go back to Dundee? Wouldn't blame him. Or, has the loan finished? He was in their under 20 squad this afternoon. Sheerin gets heehaw time again and still looks more dangerous than Renton. Why do we keep hoofing the ball to the opposition? The game was over after Lennox more or less passed it to the Peterhead player. Don't know what game Bollan was watching based on his after match interview. Their first goal was a bit like the equaliser on Saturday for Stirling. Nobody tracking the runner from the middle. Second goal Mullen no pace to even try to put a challenge in.

peternapper Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 From our point of view it was job done. Poor start but at least we got the equaliser fairly quickly & settled down. We did close down better at times last night but are still prone to give the ball away too easily. Two goals & an assist from Rory just a pity our man of the match Jamie Stevenson had to go off injured. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NELLY Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Last night we just have to say we were outclassed by a far better team. Its as simple as that. It shows the gulf between a top of the table team and where we are. Huge strides to go to ever win a league again. For me get Mcgurn back in team. Gary Fraser is our best player and would be a great player for a good team (e.g peterhead) Renton gets stick but genuinely what do you expect him to do some of the time. Works hard and some things come off for him but in the main it doesnt. Swann got in some terrific positions last night but his final ball was shocking but the movement off the ball for him was also non existent. Fotheringham coming on hmm. Difficult to analyse it great player but he is massively overweight we can slag sheerin but not fotheringham... If fotherhingham could even lose a stone he would be an asset as his touch and passing is a step above anyone we have in the team. If he aint gonna lose weight and not be fit he shouldnt play any time at all. Its amateurish stuff from us. Tough night defensively for us and our defence wont play against much better forward lines or movement all season so difficult to critiscise. Berwick away is where we need to get back on track. I would be tempted to start Sheerin give him 50 mins to bust his balls and let Renton realise he aint a guaranteed starter.. Mcgurn back in sticks 2. Sheerin gets stick but look at his movement when we have the ball in the wider areas he is much more pro active and sees the run he should make better than renton which is why I would give him the nod. More likely to get on the end of chances.. p.s Jamie Stevenson was superb last night as always what a great lower league player he is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree 100% about McGurn, our keeper seems to have “butter fingers”at times. Not good at cross balls either although he has had some good saves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzza81 Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 Unless McGurn has asked to be dropped we run the risk of pissing him off and losing him in the summer (I don't think his contract extends beyond that), same with Allan. All the focus should be on building a squad for next year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We looked much better at the start of the game, but they eventually started to overrun us. Some of the players do look low on confidence at times. I think Bollan, Lennox and Todd look promising, just need more game time to shake off the nerves. Bollan looks really good at times and then panics sometimes. I am maybe a bit harsh on Renton, but it is frustrating to watch when we basically play the ball straight back to the opposition. I do think he would be better knocking the ball onto two strikers. He knocked the ball onto Sheerin on Saturday and we almost scored. Too little movement up front and little or no support either. Coxy and Swann were on their own on the left a couple of times with no Cowden players anywhere near to support. I wasn't a fan of Fotheringham, but he looked good most of the time when he came on. Some of the players look too nervous when he is around. We should be going for youth for the future, but he is what we need in the middle if he can play like that more often. He looked much fitter than last time he played. Lots of one touch stuff, but that might be because he is too unfit to take more than one touch! Fraser is sometimes good and sometimes wasteful and Miller a bit too wasteful just now. We need some consistency in the middle and maybe then we can stop hoofing it at every opportunity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
