Waspie Posted April 23, 2019 Share Posted April 23, 2019 Final meeting of the season between the sides and a huge game for us. Not so much for Inverness. First two games were very close and I think we were a little unfortunate not to win the one at Alloa. Inverness were miles ahead in the recent midweek match at Caley Park, although we did somehow have a chance to grab a point at the end. Still think that if Inverness get their best 11 on the park then they are good as anything in the league. Obviously been a bit under strength of late and perhaps now looking towards the play-offs. The lack of pressure on ICT could work for or against us here. Thought we played pretty well at Firhill, better than in the win over QoS the week before, and could certainly have taken a point. A similar performance on Saturday would give us a chance of 3 points that we really need. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donaldson might come back in and hopefully Ridgers is back too. This is how we'll probably line up. Doran and Walsh may be rested due to the plastic surface, where A.McDonald and Austin would likely come in. Would love to see some of the younger players get a run out, but none of them have had a sniff in recent months despite having 3+ on the bench for the majority of the season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KierenAAFC Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 That’s still a decent side despite injuries and even if you do rest those players, who you’ve got coming in are more than capable.This won’t be comfortable for Alloa by any stretch. A win would be absolutely massive but if it was to come it’d be by the odd goal. Sam Roscoe to come back in for Robertson and Kirkpatrick to come in for Trouts would be my changes going into Saturday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cawley in for Shields as well for me.I went along to watch Ayr v Partick last night knowing full well that i might be leaving disappointed. Much like Saturday, Partick were first to every ball and didn’t allow Ayr to create any real chances, I can’t see Ayr getting anything from them at the weekend and a win will see Partick clear of the scrap. I was disappointed on Saturday by how much we let Partick play, we’ve had a lot of joy this season playing football against teams and taking the game to them, to retreat onto the edge of our own box as soon as we conceded possession was difficult to watch and Partick’s goals felt inevitable (very much reminiscent of the cup game at St Mirren). Having said this, it was totally understandable that this would happen once we had a lead to protect, as once Partick went ahead the roles were very much reversed. I hope we go out to play on the front foot on Saturday, as opposed to relying on containment and counter attacks. This team have been a joy to watch and have shown unbelievable resilience throughout the season, i’ve no doubt that the players will understand the magnitude of these last two games and rise to the occasion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereismillar Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Trouble with fans opinions is that they don't reflect the CLUB view on these games, Alloa bring less fans (money) than full time clubs in the champs from their point of view Falkirk and the rest are better for the club revenue , money talks louder than the heart . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see why ICT would play him here when the option is there to allow him more healing time ahead of the play-offs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was pretty rank Suspect we will want to keep most of the first team active to maintain match fitness but they definitely will be playing within themselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
printer Posted April 24, 2019 Share Posted April 24, 2019 Sam Roscoe to come back in for Robertson and Kirkpatrick to come in for Trouts would be my changes going into Saturday. Robbo has been part of an excellent defence the last few weeks. Plus IMO Taggs is a better partner for big Andy. Having said that Jim G has previous for bringing loan players back in when they return from injury when the team has been doing well without them.Kev and Jordan have to start for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally agree keep the defensive unit intact for this one. Shields to come off bench to batter ICT if we are needing a goal late on. It’s been a massive season so far let’s hope we have the battle in us for our last home game of the season and what ever happens we fight to the last kick of the ball as we have done all“audere est facere" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
