baillieinleeds Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Why are Queens on a panic trip? We have by far the worst goalie and defence I’ve seen in years. Christ even shite like Lee Robinson is a superstar compared to Lyness 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baillieinleeds Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 I went to Munich when we were 2-0 down from the first leg. Why not Dumfries.Because that team that played at Munich are a universe in difference to this lot. Hopefully I’ll be eating my words at the end of the game. But sadly I won’t. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC_Lachlan Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Blind optimism setting in. However expect to be in a hoor of a mood come 6pm. I'll be watching on Alba while setting up for tonight's gig here in London while explaining to the folk I'm with why two teams they've never heard of are so tightly woven into just how happy I'll be for the rest of day. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 If mcglynn turns this round today it will surpass anything he's achieved before at the club. The team are a mess, the defence has shipped goals time and again, the goalkeeper us questionable at best and the options in midfield are poor. Also from Wednesday night that second half performance of just launching balls at a small striker was just fucking pointless, we were only 2 down in a game we could have competed in had they not just decided f**k it we'll settle for this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My worry is that some Queens players will think it is done we must be at it as a team and every player must give 100 % Raith will be right up for this have nothing to lose which makes them even more dangerous . I am really worried about this Johnston must get his team talk right as well must get in the players heads get them to listen 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QoS_1919 Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 In the middle with this one, not really confident or worried. If we go 1-0 up or 0-0 at half time then great. But if Raith score first then I hope we don't start getting deeper and invite trouble, especially with our defence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully I’ll be eating my words at the end of the game. But sadly I won’t. I know, i’m just fooling myself. If i’m being honest then I’d say I have little faith in the current Rovers team. We’d need a lucky turn of events like their ‘keeper getting sent off and the ref giving us an early penalty. The consensus view among my circle of pals is ‘nope, let’s watch it in the pub, then FA Cup Final’. I’ll have my lunch then decide whether to drive down or not.

palmy_cammy Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 I'm not unduly optimistic but think you are being a bit unkind to Raith there. They played well and had us under the sort of pressure I would have expected a confident team to produce on their own patch, but we defended a fair bit better than of late and the goals we scored were pretty decent too. I thought Raith were unlucky to be 3 down and deserved to at least have some chance for todays game. Its not all over by any means but if we play like we have in the past couple of games I think it'll be pretty difficult for Raith to get what they need from the game.I don’t think I’m being unkind to Raith at all given the overall pessimistic tone of my post. I’m very much viewing this as a 50/50 game having watched us throw in 2+ goals with relative ease this season.Neither team shone the other night. Both looked poor at the back and low in confidence/ideas. We scored our best chances (bar one glaring miss that might still cost us) whereas Raith fluffed their lines. It could quite easily have been a draw, or a narrow lead for Raith.It really is down to the order the goals go in as I fully expect both teams to score. If it’s us first then barring a huge collapse we are home and dry. If it’s Raith then I’ll be watching through my fingers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Westander of County Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 I'd have to comment that to this neutral, QoS looked significantly more effective than RR. Raith Rovers had some decent moves and passages of play. But Queen of the South looked stronger, quicker, more creative and more lethal in the opposition last third. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldhat Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 I'm confident enough to have put a tenner on Queens to win 3-1. whether that counts as over-optimistic, faint-hearted and/or too precise a prediction I don't know.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
