BuieCounty Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 We have to be looking for 9 points out of 9 in these 3 home games. You can't open up a 5 point lead at the top and then start dropping points at home and letting teams back into it surely to god! It's Time to show they actually want to win it now. Tonight won't be easy though as Ayr haven't become a bad side overnight and are more than capable of pulling off a result. County would surely have to be gutted at anything other than a win tonight but, who knows what could happen. It's football and it's the scottish Championship!

Now the sensible thing here is not to play 4-4-2, teams have sussed us out using that, i'd happily play 3-5-2 to change things up, with mark kerr playing in top of a triangle with Docherty and Murdoch behind him. If we stick to 4-4-2, it'll the same outcome in the midfield but with Ross County having more quality players. No chance we are dropping Smith and Harvie, If anything we would have a back 5 if we changed shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cut the gap on us and then go back three points behind is a strange position to take? Surely its a draw you are after. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pandarilla Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 I feel a little bit like I did when we played Dundee United, so here's hoping...Crawford to pull the strings like the opening league game against Thistle, and Harvie to bomb forward with pinpoint accurate crossing. Shankland to dominate in another 4 goal haul. All worries blown away. (We can but dream)Mon Ayr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rb123! Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Good to see BBC Alba is having a huge pre match build up to this one.5 minutes, better not miss it, about four minutes will probably be speaking to the managers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comrie Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Think the midfield battle will be key in this, we ran it in the first half last time in Dingwall before Ayr went a bit more direct. Can we see either Draper or Spence on Kerr as much as possible? He's generally very good with the ball at his feet but has never been the quickest or most physical.

We could put Smith on the Right midfield, someone how could track back and get forward well, and Miller on the other side, with Adams rose and muirhead as the back 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AUFC 1910 Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 This is do or die, make no mistake, a draw only prolongs the pain. A win and we are back in. Lose and it's goodbye to the title hopes.Mon Ayr! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 If Crawford is on the wing I might throw the remote at the tv or destroy it like this Marseille fan: Edit - I'm not sure I could manage his athleticism though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comrie Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Thank christ this is on ALBA, had a lift lined up at 6:30 so ignored the last bus I can catch but my lift is currently drunk. Oh well. I'll have to deal with teutcher banter for two hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rb123! Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Why the f**k have we gone with a midfield of midgets against a tall team, at least it looks like Robbie Crawford won't be left but Murdoch is right mid which isn't much better. Team is: Doohan Smith Rose Adams Harvie Murdoch Docherty Crawford Miller Moffat Shankland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Realistically we were never playing with 2 wingers away from home. Pleased Muirhead is out of the team, wasn't impressed with him on Saturday. Adams will hopefully deal with the height of their striker Stewart and it's a relief to see Draper is still out for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
