Hampden Diehard Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Kids are to be encouraged to come along and make a bit of noise. The Stenny kids were decent lads although 90 minutes of banging a drum, often just aimlessly, was a bit wearing. I suppose it's a small price to pay for getting kids interested in their local team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hampden Diehard Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Almost 100% correct I think he might have said effin face. A straight red for questioning a decision wow. I think both teams disappointed with the refereeing performance. The guy was horrendously officious.Another point-saving display from Willie Muir and, overall, a decent day at the office for the defence. Three shut outs in a row is good going.As has been said, we seem to be flying out the traps in recent games and tailing off, which is in contrast to what happened earlier in the season. We might have a few more weeks to wait until everyone is at peak match fitness. Just in time for the playoffs! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kouider-Aissa has 17 goals this season. Easily the most natural finisher we've had at the club in years, and arguably the only one we've had in a long time. Haven't seen the highlights yet, but I don't remember him having any clear-cut chances on Saturday. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did initially agree with your second point but not so sure now given what has been reported he said. Difference between using the eff word in general conversation, like "that ball hit my effing face" ( at a push, a yellow for dissent) and calling the ref something ( straight red card for abusive language) The ref must have thought he was doing a BB game. Can't agree that he was bullied at all. Second half he wasn't great but - like last week against Annan - I thought he had a decent first half and was involved in most of our good play. He was also one of our better performers at Brechin which wasn't bad considering he'd just come back from injury. Of course we all know the impact he made on his debut before picking up that injury. The guy is a class act but has hardly featured in comparison to the other new signings. He has a huge part to play Edited March 9, 2020 by Mick1867 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His winning of the ball in the air is wasted as he is on his own. Young Moore has promise and I like him a lot but he is not currently the answer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NathanQP Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 What team really plays with two strikers these days anyway. We need our midfields to chip in with more goals - not another striker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

qpfc Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 We don’t necessarily need two up front, we need runners from midfield that are willing to get in behind the opposition from Salim’s knock ons. Purdue’s goal against Edinburgh earlier in the season is a prime example of how effective it can be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houstonspider Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 The other issue is the lack of a goal threat coming off the bench. Our options are limited if Plan A aint working. I think back to the likes of Rogers coming off the bench for Peterhead and usually scoring.I had thought King was brought in for a goal threat from midfield but it hasn't materialised yet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The man with no name Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 We strengthened all areas of the team bar centre-forward in the transfer window. It is the hardest position to fill and especially mid season. No one is going to release or loan anyone who is scoring goals regularly. Top priority for the Club was getting away from the drop zone. That's achieved and if we can get into the play-offs we will try and go up. Come the summer when there are a lot more strikers available then I expect we will strengthen then. Players know what is going on at Queen's Park and due to our change of status, they want to come. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because we need two strikers we are not obliged to play them together although I think we should. Cove and Elgin manage fine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we do have adequate back up and that's why McKinnon tried to get somebody in. Moore can't do what Sal does but he can be effective alongside him . I honestly don't mind us playing two up tbh. Roberts and McKinnon have both done it at some point this season. The question would be who do we sacrifice in midfield. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
