ShaggerG Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 Joe McKee is certainly not the worst player I've seen in a Falkirk shirt, (several more worse just last season alone). He's also a fairly talented player with, for a midfielder, a bit of a goal threat. He's not the type of player that you need in a battle though and, with respect, I think Dumbarton will be involved in a lot of those this season. He tends to look quite good in a side that's winning and dominating games but usually disappears when the going gets a bit tougher. I suspect that you'll see the best of him early on when he's trying to make an impression. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverton End Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 I'll be surprised if Falkirk don't put 3 or 4 past us today, only thing that could potentially be in our favour today is that Raymondo is still at the helm. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ironically the best thing for us and worst for you today could be the injury to Lewis Toshney. If it forces Dixon in to CH then there its likely whoever slots in will do more attacking and crossing from wide. Our narrowness of last week would be your best chance to frustrate us I think. Most of us are hoping this weeks additions will result in less of that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our defence is there for the taking though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our defence is there for the taking though. Starting lineup will be a big indicator what to expect from us. No disrespect but I dont think ball retention will be a hige issue so I would like to see McShane benched in favour of either Connolly or Longridge. Aidan Connolly deserves the start imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be a real shame to see him have to go off. Would've expected you be waiting outside the main stand after the game to get his autograph. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbri Bairn2 Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 McKee had his moments with us but unfortunately they did not appear often enough.

Good luck to him His moments are not the context Marshy is on about. I said McKee was infinitely better at shooting than Andy Irving. Marshy then laughed at this, claimed I was a McKee fan and made some comment about Irving being a Scotland U19. It went quiet once I pointed out an U19 squad that had, amongst others, Lewis Kidd involved. I dont mind though. Marshy is good people. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mevilc Bairn Posted August 10, 2019 Share Posted August 10, 2019 From outside looking in McShane keeping his place ahead of Gomis is a very strange decision. That's Ray for you 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
