TFW Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 .......................and today's 7-0 win at the Peasy was testament to nobody at the club taking it in the slightest bit easy with next Sunday's game at Tynecastle looming large. A great all round performance, one that might have given the watching Craig Levein a few things to think about. That is now 28 wins out of their last 32 games and just the one defeat in that time, and the last 12 games have all been won. In our 18 away games so far this season we have won 17 and drawn 1. The team is getting better and better, and when you have the luxury of being able to bring on Shankland, McIlroy and Kemp as second half substitutes - as we did last week and again today - the strength in depth is there for all to see. The win today means we are now just 11 points behind Hurlford with 7 games in hand, and their postponement today means we won't miss any extra league games than them at the moment either as they have to replay Rossvale next week. Next Sunday should see our record breaking run in the Scottish Cup come to an end but you just never know. Just enjoying every game as it comes now as this is a very special team indeed.

ardcol Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 I recall a couple of seasons ago whilst walking out of Medda Park at the end of the Ardagh Cup final where Talbot lost to Kilbirnie, some Talbot fans were saying coming out the ground that they would never go back to watch Talbot whilst he was the manager as he was at fault for losing that game. I remember a few neutrals laughing at the Talbot support and a few shouts of we'll take him were heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talbot 1978 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Talbot have fair weather fickle fans like every other club. We still have them even now ffs. Those type of fans make the game more entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onemanwolfpack Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 The final result was result was probably never in doubt but you played against 10 men for 75 minutes. Don't get too carried away. I'm sure Craig Levein has played against teams before who launch the ball up the park and press the second ball. I'm sure Hearts won't be as poor at defending set pieces at peasy. Having said that good luck to Talbot next week, spoke to a lot of decent guys today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye mate I'm just a lonely guy that's followed the same club win or lose for a lifetime. Not that you'd know how that feels. I gave Talbot credit but I didn't see you disagreeing.

Only my opinion .Do you think Talbot teams of the past would have reached this stage of the Scottish? Do i detect a touch of jealously because a neutral is praising Talbot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do i detect a touch of jealously because a neutral is praising Talbot Scottish football as a whole was far better in the 80s and 90s and senior teams like Ayr were far better than they're just now, it was a huge difference in standards compared to now for me, Talbot remain the best and the benchmark but I don't see Many - if any current players being better than the likes of Gordon Mills, Hugh lyden, Ross Findlay, Wullie young, Brian lannon, wee square heid Thomson and co.

You’d think they’d rather test themselves against higher quality opposition (LL/League 2) #letsmakethisanotherpyramidthread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
