Northfield 53 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 This is a game we have to win after today I just can't see it . Raith have been excellent recently another very difficult game . Raith will show us what it is like to pass a ball and keep it l not just hit long high balls all the time and hope for the best . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard doonhamer Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Huge game between 2 fairly matched teams. Need a win for any chance of the top 4. A win also mathematically rules out any relegation threat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 (edited) Well, we weren't very good today if that gives you more confidence. Plenty of possession but we created few changes and switched off around the 60 mark. Given our position this is must not lose rather than must win. But QoS really need the result and this is going to be a very hard game. I'll take any outcome that means we are still second at the end of the game.

embow Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 We are masters at letting two goal leads slip, albeit usually at home. This has the makings of a home win and I'll take the draw now if you're happy to settle for that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raith_Raver Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 After today I'm deflated and not optimistic about this one. For all our possession for an hour we created little, then capitulated after shite defending gave Arbroath hope. I suspect we will carry on where we left off today into Tuesday's game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TxRover Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Gullan and Vaughan, easy win. Vaughan and Matthews, comfortable win. Vaughan, a chance for a win. Davo, oh Jesus knows what happens. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pub car king Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 This league is so cut throat I don't think it matters who you play wouldn't be surprised to see loads of drawn games until the end of the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davo, oh Jesus knows what happens. I hope Matthews is fit to play, otherwise we might well see Davo. I wold say its rouhly 50/50 or better that he has a decent game than have a brain fart or do a clanger. I wouldn't be overly worried if he started, but I expect him to be on the bench. I wouldn't be confident of a win even if Gullan and Matthews did start. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need something up front, either Gullan or (perhaps) Smith to join Vaughan? Lewis alone isn’t working, much as Duku has vanished. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALDERON Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 In reality, with Dunfermline and Dundee playing each other, Queens being another contender, and this being the game in hand over ICT...a draw is actually fine. A win would be massive though, especially after dropping daft points at the weekend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 A draw is fine in top 4 terms, in second place terms matching Dundee’s result is fine provided we don’t both lose. We can be six clear of 4th, or three clear of 5th by full time. Top 3 guaranteed or needing to pull a win out against Dundee or Hearts to guarantee the play-offs at all. Must not lose, rather than must win I think. But a win would be huge, it would make up for Saturday’s mistakes and allow for error in the final two with Dundee/Hearts. Gullan being fit is the key. Not expecting Matthews but would be great if he appeared. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If playing before that would possibly make that impossible, I’d swaddle them in bubble wrap and rest them. Would I like them to play, he’ll yes...but not if there is any risk with the current injuries. Almost any way you slice results, the Dundee game is likely to be the pivotal one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith_Raver Posted April 12, 2021 Share Posted April 12, 2021 I think we need to go for it and play the best team available for whatever opposition we're facing. It's too late for squad rotation if players are fit 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
