Auld Git Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Considering we've resigned this years defence , thats a guarentee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Briggsy's Ghost Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Our centrebacks are fine as individual players. Mchardy would play in the majority if not all of teams in this league and bronsky has shown enough to suggest he’s perfectly capable but there is no organisation and the full backs have offered nothing defensively this year. We’ve struggled going forward this year and it’s exposed the lack of cohesion in the defence when we can’t pin other teams back and are constantly under pressure. A couple of decent signings can transform a team in this league but as usual it’ll be the quality of loan signings we get that will make the difference. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom & Gerry Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Don’t think quality loan signings are the answer. You could count on one hand any half decent loan signings we’ve had. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BullyWeeStonehouse Posted May 6, 2019 Share Posted May 6, 2019 Uncharacteristically poor season for Elgin this year. You're usually a strong playoff chasing side that I dread Clyde playing, especially at Borough Briggs. What went wrong this season? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surprised that he was talking about being the main CH and that he would talk his partner through games. We persevered with him for too long even though it was obvious that his legs were long gone. The on-off saga with S***e didn't help morale either. Heard a story that he wants to come back already. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've not been good enough, obviously, but we seemed to pin a lot of our hopes on this fantastic experienced leader that would be a rock at the back. What we actually got was an unfit, overweight wanderer who couldn't stay in position and struggled to kick the ball cleanly. Really strange one. I have no doubt that if we'd had the player we expected we'd be in the playoffs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
