Jack Reed Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Maybe Josh is a step up from second string football,is he playing in defense or striker for reserves? Let's hope his goals continue ,something positive for a change ,you will be drafted in on sat , 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's comfortable on the ball, Forfar f**kup a side. Problem is we're already overloaded in that position. Also, I like Callum Smith but I don't think he should be played through the middle. He doesn't strike me as a prolific enough goalscorer. For me he'd be better out wide. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stuartcraig Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Shit news about Bury yesterday. I was a nipper at the time but I seem to remember getting them in the Anglo-Scottish cup and assuming we’d win easily, only to see the exact opposite happening. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moon Posted August 28, 2019 Author Share Posted August 28, 2019 I feel really sorry for them. I know that no-one helped us but I still wouldn't wish it on any other set of fans. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure they were bottom of Division 4 at the time and we were in the Premier League. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure they were bottom of Division 4 at the time and we were in the Premier League. They had Neville Southall in goals and his autobiography is very dismissive of the Anglo Scottish cup. We were well beaten by them as I remember it. Might also be the season when Chesterfield beat the old Rangers. Never nice to see clubs go under but there can be resurrections ( Accrington Stanley/AFC Wimbledon) and we are one? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
airdrieman Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Hutton MacDonald Fordyce Crighton McCann Thomson Hawkshaw/Reilly Roberts Carrick Gallagher Smith Subs - McKay, Kerr, Wedderburn, Roy, Gallacher/McNeil, Hawkshaw/Reilly, Millar/Cowan. Would like to see us drop both Wedderburn and Millar and just go for it. Hawkshaw and Roberts would both give us a lot more energy and creativity. The other boy from Accies, Reilly, is a midfielder too so he might be worth a punt. Can't see both of them being dropped though, at least one of them will be starting. If both are starting I'm gonna work myself into all sorts of shoots. Apart from the midfield, revert back to the back 4 and play Gallagher and Smith (our two best forwards) upfront please. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at that side it is bang average, no consistent goals in the entire team, massive game on saturday. The one change which I think will happen in the coming weeks Scott Gallagher to replace David Hutton between the sticks. Hutton has struggled this season and IMO Gallagher is a better keeper. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll give you that he was at fault for the second goal but the first came from one other guy, and the others down the left hand side of our defence on Saturday. (All scored by midfielders) If we don't include him for that there are several others who would also drop out-Wedderburn prominently and of course the Manager who was really the guilty man with his tactics and formation in first 20 minutes. The team shown may well be bang average but that sums up much of our squad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShineOnYouCrazyDiamonds Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Hutton MacDonald Fordyce Crighton McCann Thomson Hawkshaw/Reilly Roberts Carrick Gallagher Smith Subs - McKay, Kerr, Wedderburn, Roy, Gallacher/McNeil, Hawkshaw/Reilly, Millar/Cowan. McKay over MacDonald for me and I think a midfield pairing of Roberts and Hawkshaw against Falkirk would be madness. Wedderburn may not have covered himself in glory last weekend but realistically either him or Millar has to play. Would like to see Hawkshaw get more game time but I can't see how he fits into a 442 other than out wide. Arguably too lightweight to play in a central pair and I see him as more of an attacking midfielder you'd play just behind the striker. As for Reilly he's a 17 year old that I know next to nothing about. Must have got him on loan for a reason but I'm not shouting for him to be starting games yet. Gallagher and Smith up front is a must imo and I wouldn't mind seeing Carrick on the left but what's wrong with Euan O'Reilly? He's an actual winger as opposed to playing strikers there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

O Reilly is out with a groin injury and could be long term, I am sure it said he was being sent back to St Johnstone for intensive treatment. Are we still in the market for players or has that ship sailed until January. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't there on Saturday and haven't bothered to watch the 'highlights' so can't comment on his performance. Not sure we're that flush with many other options there though. McKay is fine but isn't a proper full-back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
