Are we getting 37 league games this season ? No Fasan please, no Muirhead centre mid and we will see how we go. We could be doing with a win here to drag Morton close by, reality is I don't expect us to win and like most game till January, I'd be content with a point. Mitchell in goals, Kidd, Robson wing backs, any 3 of Muirhead, Harrison, Brough and McGhee(they are all as bad as each other) Midfield Paton Bauben McKee Rudden and Petra I expect Sammut or Irving tho to take the McKee place tho Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senor Bairn Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 This has draw all over it.1. Because we don’t win at home.2. Morton were rank until Fasan got sent off against us. Can’t see them hurting us unless their new manager has made some improvements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that, I think I would stick with the McGhee, Harrison, Brough trio at the back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that, I think I would stick with the McGhee, Harrison, Brough trio at the back.Yeah me too. I dont believe Morton are blessed with a lot of pace up top? Certainly we know Sir Bob of McHugh isnt exactly rapid. Brough got rolled painfully easily on one or two occassions too on Saturday. We know we will do the whole sit in thimg on Saturday, I just hope Ray thinks to cover what there had clearly been no need to cover before.... How to manage a game with a comfortable lead. Theres sitting in, then theres that ridiculous secind half on Saturday. That cant happen again otherwise we lose all the points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob does seem as fit as he has ever been for us, had an op in the Summer to clear a niggling injury up and has looked quite sharp of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats where we struggle in the centre of the defence. As I said earlier, we absolutely will sit in. Its not up for debate. We just need to learn quickly that sitting in and absolutely camping out inviting wave after wave isnt exactly the same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunning1874 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 It'd be no surprise if we lose this really. While the second half was an improvement on Saturday, had Dundee United not tried to sit on their lead we might have been finished off; after Saturday Falkirk probably won't have any illusions about being good enough defensively to see a game out and will just go for the jugular rather than defending what they have in the event they go ahead. I've still not got much confidence in us coping with going behind after the number of capitulations we've seen already this season, so getting the first goal here is more crucial than ever. We really can't afford to lose this and get dragged into the relegation battle, but with recent form Falkirk go into it as clear favourites.

Chinatoon Bairn Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 Since this clearly won't be settled over a good game of football on Saturday, we should have a full scale rammy round the back of Pennies at half 5. Last team standing wins, loser to be crowned a permanent diddy team. Sound fair to everyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't won a home league match since April and that was a glorified friendly. We are bottom of the table having gave away a 2 goal lead at home to Alloa. We are clearly more comfortable playing away from home and are better set up to do so. If you fear playing us you really should just drop down to the seaside league now.

No one mentioned fear but that doesn't take away from the fact that we are not playing that well and you have improved so a home win isn't exactly mission impossible! You are ahead of us in the form table ( over 6 and 10 games) too so 2/1 is a big price for a home win. ( Fully expect that to come in) Plus it fecking Morton, we love giving teams a result when they least expect it- Alloa ad Dunfermline in the last few weeks for example!

I didn't even mention Morton are 1 point from the playoff spot and 9 points ahead of us. Our form as you point out is mostly away form. 9 of our 12 points have come away. 3 home draws all season seems to have you rather nervous.

We're winless in four league games and have only scored once in those. No one said anything about fear, but it's stating the obvious to say that a Morton win would be a bigger surprise than a Falkirk win here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
