bridge of allan bairn Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 fully expected Arbroath to win reasonably comfortably before kick off, them being the championship side, with decent ish form and at home on grass however after the game felt we were slightly unlucky not to come away with a win.nothing to fear in the replay they seem to have a well organised hard working side but with no standout players. hoping being at home might share it for us.as for us, agree with what someone said earlier we really need a bit more quality in the no10 old sibbald position to beat a man, hold it up and supply slide rule passes to the 2 forwards. may be de vita will? was hoping to see Miller today so disappointed as everyone seems to rate him, hopefully he will be back for replay. there were a few really nice passing movements but the general play was eye bleeding and not much better than under McKinnon. we lost possession a lot in the first half due to goalkeepers knockouts, free kicks and passes in the air where Arbroath won the first and second balls. we also gave the ball away easily under no pressure in the first half sammon and mcshane in particular. all of this seemed to Improve second half. thought Dixon and gomis were best for us. no one was really poor but we are crying out for 1 star player that really takes games by the scruff of the neck.away draw to a team in the league above not to he sniffed at though need to finish the job at home. big tie would still allow cash in time for window... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BottiBiabi Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Should of won today, tactically we were poor and Miller and McCracken should of brought on the subs quicker, felt more like we were playing for a draw/ replay. Telfer shouldn’t of lasted as long as he did and sammon was poor as well. What the f**k was going on in the corner with the stewards? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Lay off the drink, and learn to read things properly. They were right on top of us as soon as we got the ball which meant the game descended into a battle. Aye ok Pep 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anthony Fitzgerald Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Holy shit what a terrible game from both teams. At least we know we are guff. Assuming arbroath can’t be that bad for the replay. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 18, 2020 Share Posted January 18, 2020 Might be wrong but I think it was a wee jokeFlip of the coin. Was toying with “f**k have”, but settled for the traditional route. Do get what you are saying, but in true FFC fashion, I went with balance of probabilities. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shadwell Dog Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 We were pretty decent defensively with durnan keeping it simple for a change. Our two centrebacks managed to win virtually everything flung at them in the air. Our main problem was in the final third. Final pass and decision making was awful summed up by doyles failure to set mcmanus free late in the game. Astro at home should suit us hopefully. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 19, 2020 Share Posted January 19, 2020 Best player in the Arbroath side was the number 5. I guess he is on loan from someone? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
