RC55 FFC Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Is it Saturday yet? Away day aside, it’s such a massive game for us. We need to start as we mean to go on. Could this be the first opening day win since 2007? Bloody hope so. MacLean is the only doubt now & Durnan is back so assuming no further additions before Saturday (although you never know) I think we’ll line up; Bell DixonDurnanBuchananDoyle Gomis ConnollyTidserTelfer SammonMcManus Subs;MutchToshneyMcShaneLeitchJohnstone 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sanity check needed. Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 I've got a feeling it will be a scoring draw, we don't do first day wins.Will Durnan not still be suspended if it was classed as violent conduct?Just seen response on other thread, be good if it is only a suspension for cup games not league 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BainsfordBairn May be able to confirm though? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC55 FFC Posted July 28, 2019 Author Share Posted July 28, 2019 Ah well, it rolls over to next season then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grangemouth Bairn Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Expect there to be goals in this. Peterhead will be raising the championship flag so I expect them to come roaring out the blocks. Hopefully the quality of our squad will tell though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson92FFC Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Would happily take a scrappy 1-0 victory, didn't have an easy time last time we played them 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sanity check needed. Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Being honest I'd happily take a point from this one, as mentioned before think they will come out the blocks flying, although thought we would do the same the season we were promoted and ICT done a number on us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back Post Misses Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Anyone who thinks we will roll this league over need only look at the league cup results. Airdrie, Peterhead, Forfar and East Fife all doing well in stronger groups than us. Skinny squad still a huge issue IMO. Hopefully Campbell is the real deal and gets his DD done pronto Hoping for a win but draw probably. Long drive ahead 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loads of crazy results as teams experiment and try to get players fit. East fife beat dundee united but they themselves got pumped by cowdenbeath. The likes of stirling drew with hibs then shipped 6 to arbroath. Skinny squad could be an issue but if we dont win this league by 15 to 20 points then mckinnon needs to have a good look at himself. The likes of dunfermlinr livi and queens have cruised it with smaller budgets than us. With no mcallister we wont get a better chance to.beat these guys. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shodwall cat Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 (edited) Sevco won it by 40 odd. Livi, dunfermline and queens all by 15 to 20 odd. That should be our expectations considering our budget. Cant see why people are getting the hump. If we dont then we've underperformed given our advantages.

I’m sure we have the capability but we also have a very small squad. My point was I hope the players don’t become big headed and arrogant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
