hedgeman83 Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Think its his previous record as a manager that does not fill you with confidence that he can set up an attacking team. The players mentioned above may be forward thinking players but Ross has scored 11 & Craig 4 hardly prolific. But lets hope that his masterplan works !! mon the cityYeah you do have a point there but what we are seeing now is better than the crap we have had to watch for the last 2 years 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As the above chap has said our squad has no balance at all. Defenders/defence minded midfielders. Burns, McGeever, J Tapping, Hill, Toshney, Scobbie, McLean, Smith, Morena, Robertson, Spark, Lynas Way too defensively heavy imo Unless the 3 injured guys McGeever, Tapping and Robertson are out long term?! Striker please! Burns out now as well with broken arm. That is why Scobie was signed. Seemingly a striker is on the radar but finding good strikers is like finding like hens' teeth. What folk fail to realise is that for the past 3 or 4 games we have only had 2 outfield players on the bench and players have had to play in strange positions. When everyone is fit again it looks like a really strong squad for the run in. Edited February 8, 2019 by theoriginalhedge 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to keep playing Ewan Smith where he's being playing him hea looking pretty good just now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps if we had a manager/coach that knew what he was doing I might stop moaning but at the moment Smythe is just like Dodds CLUELESS. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gm_1982 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Yeah you do have a point there but what we are seeing now is better than the crap we have had to watch for the last 2 years Is it though? Other than the first game I don’t it is. I know Barry needs to make his own stamp on the team and the side against Montrose featured a few of his signings and we went down to one of the worst results for a long time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hedgeman83 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 People on here are always so negitive yes it was a heavy defeat but we won the 2 games before that and as hedge said we had 2 for players on the bench and most of the others out of position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B.C.F.C. - ANGUS No 1 Posted February 9, 2019 Share Posted February 9, 2019 Hopefully with this free week, we can get some injuries sorted, then reassess. With the new signings experience and a bit of hard work... Hopefully a promising final third of the season to come, get ourselves to safety, then see what plans Barry can sort for next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its difficult to be positive I really want it to work out for Smith but i am afraid I did not think it was a good appointment at the time and as of yet have not changed my mind. Apart from a wee purple period at Dundee he has done nothing at any club he has been at and most of these clubs had better resources than Brechin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
