Let’s kick start the season on a positive note and hope it resonates to the team. I’ll go first and predict Aitken starts with Carswell in the holding midfield role with Hutts on the bench. Forbes will be fully fit and stroll it from the middle of the park whilst Barr runs amok down the wing. A fully fit, motivated, Roy bangs in 2 and quickly becomes our new 21st century Paddy Flannery. As disappointing as last week was we put in an equally impressive performance versus Killie, so we can match the latter today. 3-1 Sons. Loy (2), Gallagher. Aggy free-kick for the Fifers. safe journey to all travelling north. I'm in the pub already and 1 pint in I still can't see any of this... I do agree with your point though. No point dwelling over last week (or last season!) or even getting hung up on the Carswell/Hutton situation. We just need to back the team today and throughout the season. Let's give them a chance for now and if we are nowhere near the top in a month or 2 then we can maybe start making judgements on changing things.

FifeSons Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 I wonder if the Countess of Dumbarton will be celebrating her birthday by heading along to Methill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FifeSons Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Hutton and Carswell start. What a shock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Vojáček Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 4-4-2 then? Well...it's a start. Might be a diamond like we saw against Queen's Park. Pleased to see Loy and Gallagher up top together. Thomson, Barr and Little are good options to have on the bench too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FifeSons Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Presumably we're playing a 4-4-2 with Forbes out wide (when he's far more effective in the middle). At least Gallagher is starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'd all rather have B.Barr starting ahead of Hutton/Carswell, but at least it's two up top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Presumably we're playing a 4-4-2 with Forbes out wide (when he's far more effective in the middle). At least Gallagher is starting. Forbes most successful season of his career was playing wide. I don't have any issues with him being deployed there.As much as the team sheet has been confirmed it's still a total lottery as to where everyone will be deployed. I just hope there isn't some awful surprise in store, like Gallagher out wide or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Vojáček Posted August 4, 2018 Share Posted August 4, 2018 Started horrendously, but we've grown into the game and created a few decent openings. We look pretty good when we get the ball on the deck. Loy, Forbes, Paton and the SeaGal have all shown some really cute touches. Unfortunately we've also resorted to lumping it on a few occasions which is utterly pointless. First goal will be crucial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
