Would be surprised to see Sibbald dropped though. Longer term (If J.Holt is here) it’ll be interesting to see who plays and maybe even cover Marv. I think this game has possibly come a bit too early in the season for us (but I wouldn’t put anything past Livi). Our defence is definitely better that Barcelona’s, I think.... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crispy Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Eh, bump. I’ve yet to see a pre-match thread take off. Maybe different if Livi aren’t the opposition 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe different if Livi aren’t the opposition We all know how this one's ending so not much to talk about tbh. Only real discussion is do we go back to 3 at the back to try and frustrate Rangers or do we stick with 4-2-3-1 for a better chance of getting the ball forward but less defensive players crammed into the team? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AberdeenHibee Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Livi were excellent at home last season, but do fear for them today on the basis of what I saw in our game a week ago. Sincerely hope I am wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJF Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 Reports doing the rounds that Livi have accepted a bid for Dykes and he won’t be involved today. Can only be a good thing for Rangers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope Poplatnik isn't a complete diddy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d imagine they’ll want an agreement that he isn’t involved today in case he picks up an injury. I’m happy he won’t be playing against us today (if true) but I’m also disappointed he won’t be around here much longer to ragdoll Jullien on a regular basis. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJF Posted August 16, 2020 Author Share Posted August 16, 2020 I’ve never really bought into this. Does having a plastic pitch give the home side a considerable advantage? I don’t really think so. I think the whole debate has escalated as Kilmarnock and Livingston getting plastic pitches coincided with both teams actually becoming decent and hard to beat. You never hear teams moaning about the plastic pitch at Hamilton because the majority of the time they get a result there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispy Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 (edited) Great work from the DR, “The forward, who is eligible for both Scotland and Australia, is also of interest to Barnsley who have seen two bids rejected.” Just need Hamilton to run his socks off. I do think he links to bounce of folks so hopefully can noise up the Rangers CBs. Realistically, our main goal threat gone and a shakey defence equals a bit of a doing.

hoobahabba Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Some odd choices in our starting 11 but we were getting pumped anyway so I guess it doesn't matter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
