Aberdeen Cowden Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 All 4 subs on at half time, what is going on? Well, manager blamed for not using subs. Must be really grim. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking maybe illness as somebody else mentioned, to leave no subs for the entire second half is, well, unusual. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onecowden Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Very strange team selection today. Interested to know why only 15 fit players. If indeed they were fit as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On another note: Does anyone know the nearest service station outside Gretna? I need a piss and won't be able to drive and hold it in to Cowdenbeath. Annandale Water is not too far up the M74. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s been taking the piss for most of this season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a virus hit the club and we had to cancel training on Thursday. Armstrong and Davidson were unable to play and 2 or 3 others weren’t 100%. The one match suspension for cautions for three players all kick in 14 days after their 5th caution. If we had had games every Saturday they would not all have been out for the same match 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weanjohnson Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Ended up ironically being more dire to watch in the second half than the first. Mo Ross chucked the toys out the pram by bringing Ruddy off, it was a shocking mistake but one you'll only make once in a game if not a blue moon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PELE Posted December 4, 2022 Share Posted December 4, 2022 Danny saved us on a few occasions in the second half. Otherwise it would have been worse. He is a good keeper. Carlos really had to score the chance he had in the first half. He hasn't really had many great opportunities in front of goal, but he was clean through with the keeper off his line and he could have placed into either corner or curled it in etc., but he basically passed it weakly straight to a relieved keeper. Thought our luck might have been in when Gretna missed the penalty, but not to be. What was the attendance? Looked about 70 or 80. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought one might come towards the end but a combination of over-hit crosses and wayward finishing put paid to that. Blind Paul and Karl ended up getting back about midnight but we all had a top day. Hopefully I can return before the end of the season. If not, see you at Gretna again next season! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No more than that though. Talking to one of the Gretna folk before the game, he said the last game (albeit a cup match) saw a crowd of just 69 and they've often struggled to exceed a ton this year 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mo's behaviour to players is questionable at best. If I was a player, I would not play my best if I am getting spoken like that. He called Alfie a "useless lanky c**t" in the home game against Gretna, which I still can't get over. He called Carlos "you're just a waste of space" against Stirling Uni. Seems odd to me as they are 3 of best players this season. These are not isolated incidents, he's loses off with language and behaviour that isn't really acceptable. We are all annoyed above our 16th league position, but you still have treat the players like humans and with respect and dignity. That’s not the best of ideas suggesting that players don’t play their best! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are all annoyed above our 16th league position, but you still have treat the players like humans and with respect and dignity. Just after Gretna's goal, I was stood in the corner near where the players come off the pitch and Ross stormed past down the sideline, fuming. I said 'Come on, Maurice'. He didn't look. 'Chin up!' 'What the f**k can you do about that' came the abrupt reply 'Well, it's up to you to do sumat about it' I replied, as he carried off in a huff. By that I meant possibly step things up a bit in the second half, not haul a previously reliable keeper due to one blunder. Even me blind mate looked at us with an expression that said 'That was a bit odd'! I get that he's frustrated, but the knee-jerk reactions and antics certainly can't be good for team spirit Edited December 4, 2022 by Drifter 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well if things were that bad at your work you would either chuck the job and leave or look for another one. I was more making the point it’s a bleak enough season as it is without players downing tools.

iateallthepies Posted December 5, 2022 Share Posted December 5, 2022 I was thinking we could maybe inspire the team by emulating the Senegal fans, painting ourselves white and spelling out Cowdenbeath, but I don't suppose we have enough fans for that. We could probably manage oh f. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aberdeen Cowden Posted December 6, 2022 Share Posted December 6, 2022 Is Saturday’s game likely to be in doubt? Forecast doesn’t look good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
