Lichtie78 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 Clearly St Johnstone’s biggest game this week…In the paper today that Tam O’Brien will miss out & Jason Thomson still recovering from his knee injury. Goldie was getting a good run out in the warm up last week at Ayr so hopefully he’s back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radford Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 Galatasaray, Arbroath, then Randers or LASK/Vojvodina. Some week for St Johnstone. Will have to make changes for this one but the squad is strong and it was a good draw. Equally, Arbroath will be thinking it could be a good time to play Saints. Game time for Parish, Muller, Brown, Devine, Hendry and Middleton, plus those that don't feature heavily tomorrow and potentially Ballantyne and Bryson, if he is fit. Who knows what the story is with Gilmour. Vertainen's work permit is a slow process. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lichtie23 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 I’d like to see the Saints get past Galatasaray but suffer a few wee knocks forcing their better players to be rested on Sunday. Even though the friendly finished 4-1 to the Saints I thought we matched them for long periods of the game, so hopeful we can cause a wee upset at the weekend. My sons first live game in 18 months as well which he is fair excited for. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 Think we'll rotate as much as possible. Absolutely no disrespect to Arbroath or the competition but the game against LASK has to be our priority just now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stan3600 Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 No live stream? That’s really annoying for a distant fan. Back to “following” the match on FlashScore and the BBC sport app. Definitely not the same. And I have to rely on you unreliable witnesses for what really happened. Ffs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premier Sports announcing this late on Friday afternoon makes it impossible for me to reorganise my weekend to get over to the east coast. That's cost AFC & SJFC my cash, and I'm sure I won't be the only one. Why did Premier Sports not announce this earlier in the week? It's not as if they didn't know that Ibrox & MacDairmid were going to be at full capacity for the European games 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Positive, sometimes. Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Can see us making quite a few changes. Clark, Kerr, McCann unlikely to start I don't think. Devine, Middleton & Rooney likely to come into the team as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sh*teAndMuck Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 (edited) Note - 2pm kick off! I only just realised this… Not sure who is actually available for tomorrow but we all love a line-up prediction don’t we? Guys? Don’t we? Guys? Guys? Parish Muller Gordon McCart Rooney Devine Davidson Bryson?? Middleton Wotherspoon?? May Edited August 14, 2021 by Sh*teAndMuck 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radford Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Unless Wotherspoon only couldn't play on Thursday because he hadn't had time to take a test after being notified as a close contact (did we ever clear up what football rules are?) then he won't be available and I doubt Bryson will be back when he couldnt even make the bench on Thursday. Giving McCann a break would have been nice but he'll need to play. I'd start Ballantyne alongside him and possibly ask Liam Craig to start, in the hope we can sub him off after an hour or so. If he can perform as he did against Motherwell, it will give us a real platform. It's not a game for Davidson. My instinct is Brown will start in Austria, so should have Rooney for this one. The left back situation is interesting. If Wotherspoon was available for Thursday, I'd play Booth in Austria but if he (DW) isn't, I just wonder about the legs of Devine instead. Protect Kerr since he missed the Motherwell game and keep Parish sharp. If Liam Craig doesn't play then, not that he necessarily deserves it but Hendry gets a(nother) final chance. Not that I think it'll make a difference for him. Would prefer Craig playing though with Middleton pushed up alongside May, rather than in behind him and Hendry. Parish Muller - Gordon - McCart Rooney - Ballantyne - Craig - McCann - Devine May - Middleton Subs: Clark, Kerr, Brown, Booth, Davidson, O'Halloran, Kane, Hendry, Northcott. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saint in exile Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Expecting a hard game tbh.Arbroath will be right up for this and we may well be suffering for Thursdays exertions.Hopefully we will have enough fresh legs and creativity to get us over the line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 A controversial thought I'm sure, but perhaps we should just play a back four if we want to rest Kerr. Parish Rooney - Gordon - McCart - Devine McCann - Craig - Ballantyne MOH - May - Middleton Can set that front three up anyway you want, but ideally you give MOH/Middleton freedom go where they want. May is tasked with scoring and nothing else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radford Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 For me, playing a back four (we won't) would just mean you could leave Kerr and one of the others out. Have to use this opportunity to get Muller another game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
