well fan for life Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 Watching Campbell up against Stevie Mallan last season was absolutely great entertainment. Chucked him about like an empty trackie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CSmith Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Would normally back us to win at home but can’t shake the feeling we’ll be dropping points due to the absences in the forward line. With Long probably out and Hylton unwell, that only leaves Scott as a nailed on starter. With that in mind, I’d expect us to run with that same midfield 4 we played against Aberdeen with Scott partnering up with any of Ndjoli/Manzinga/Ilic/MacIver/Seedorf. Expecting an energetic and battling performance where we’ll be hoping to take advantage of set pieces and all the usual malarkey that goes with that. Would take a draw now. Bonus points if we manage to see the elusive Casper Sloth feature at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zing. Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Can only see a home win here. We just aren’t very good defensively this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie McSquackle Posted January 25, 2020 Author Share Posted January 25, 2020 Hopefully the Hibs side that turned up in the 1st half against Accies turns up tomorrow because they were dugmeat.If the Hibs side from the 2nd half turn up, we could be in bother.Factoring in our recent experience with Accies, maybe they aren't as bad as everyone thinks they are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_oats Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Seems to be Long out along with Maguire, Semple and Hylton a doubt. Dunne & Turnbull still long term injuries. It kind of shows how fortunate we've been injuries-wise this season that this is probably the most we've had unavailable and only 2 of them have been regular starters (Long, Hylton). I wouldn't be surprised to see Ilic get a start to keep his chin up after the tactical sub during the week. Robinson's been talking him up and by all accounts he did a turn at Pittodrie and scored twice for the Reserves on Monday - which should put him miles ahead of Seedorf for the position. Gillespie Grimshaw Gallagher Hartley Carroll Campbell Donnelly Polworth O'Hara Scott Ilic The Accies game at FP is still fresh enough in the mind to be unsure about this one tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJC Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 The incentive is huge for us today, we win and go seven points clear in third if only for 24 hours. This is therefore, exactly the type of game that we fail to deliver the goods in, just like Aberdeen at home, just like Accies at home and just like Ross County at home. 1-0 Hibs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Manzinga on the bench...and Scott presumably the #9. Probably projecting here but it feels like this will be a bit of a test to see if we need another body in up front (spoiler: we do). It definitely feels thin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJC Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 Big test for the front three and will tell us alot about whether they are capable of delivering the goods. This is potentially the big chance for James Scott to prove he can play the 'No.9' role for us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MP_MFC Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 James Scott has the hibs right back on toast. If we had a centre forward I think we'd be far ahead but Scott's options are basically to shoot on sight from bad angles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BawWatchin Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 If we had that referee against Hamilton, the game would have been abandoned before half time due to them not having enough players left on the field. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
