Clayhole Blue Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Agree it's not looking good for Brechin, but contrary to what was in their letter to the SPFL the greater recent match practice they will have should be a net advantage rather than a problem. Brora and Kelty could effectively be in preseason form next week.Agree they could be. But we’ve played both Kelty and Brora this season. On the day they both looked top end League 2 sides, with good and well trained players and I wouldn’t bank on them being off the pace!ps - we have the dates for the Brora/Kelty matches - do we have the dates for the final? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brora and Kelty could effectively be in preseason form next week. I’m not sure about the playing advantage They beat us 2-0 and their manager said it was the first time since restart he had a full squad. He played the same team last night and lost two players to injury in the first half inc himself. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't recall if these games have been televised or not in previous years on Alba or whatever but this is absolute must watch drama considering what has gone on over the previous two campaigns and all the uncertainty surrounding it all. I wish Brechin all the best and hope they can survive but I can't help thinking the writing is on the wall. I don't know enough about the Brora side but the Kelty side would be a top four team in this leage for sure so should really deal with this Brechin side comfortably you would think. At last a good post from Neilly. Yes the games should be televised. I also wish Brechin all the best, one of the few stadiums I can visit without a lengthy drive. We’ve had many tight games games in recent times and it would be sad if they don’t make it. Don’t think Brora or Kelty will be as strong as Cove were and Brechin are a much better outfit than Berwick were at the end of the season. I think and hope Brechin will get through this . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vodka Vic Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 Are the bookings and disciplinary points gained by Brora and Kelty in the games played so far extended on a PPG basis ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theoriginalhedge Posted April 30, 2021 Share Posted April 30, 2021 1 minute ago, andrew21 said: Brechin have a squad of twenty three and nearly every game have had nine named on the bench. Ok some of those might not have been 100% fit but pulling the players out injured card is a load of tosh especially when those players were playing they weren't getting any better results. You haven't obviously been following any of our games, just the stats. The injuries are to our most influential experienced guys who (when fit ) have been guiding the young players through games. Tuesday night was the first time in many matches that they were all playing together. ........Result- clean sheet victory. That team started again on Thursday and were by far the dominant team until big Gerry went off injured then our defence crumpled to another pitiful defeat. No coincidence that Gerry was mom on Tuesday either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously the young guys need the on pitch encouragement to see them through games. Without that they crumble. Bodes well for the future for these guys. not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vimto90 Posted May 6, 2021 Share Posted May 6, 2021 I'm glad they have to face the music. I won't revel in it though. It truly is a harsh reality than my club are just as at risk. Brechin were always one of the PT teams other clubs envied. That being said I don't fear going down. As long as the club is there, you can get to the games, get a pint, that's the most important thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
