Ro Sham Bo Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 All Auchinleck's shock wins have come at home. We can't take them lightly but there's no getting away from the fact that this will be one of our worst ever results if we lose. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Threave Rovers, Linlithgow Rose, and Deveronvale come to mind. Any more? I remember we got Wick Academy away in the diddy cup. We had both Vale of Leithen and Peterhead in 1986/87. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Banks O Dee just last season too. I’m a little concerned about our inability to turn matches around, lower league teams often get an early goal in cup matches. But overall I’m really looking forward to something a bit different. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 (edited) Tickets purchased online. I‘ll be there. Looking forward to seeing us and hoping we have better luck than last week.

Raith Against The Machine Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I'm surprised Murray hasn't opted for a bit more rotation. I suppose with five subs it's easier to make changes later on if you can get into a comfortable position, but I thought he'd pitch in one or two like McBride and Frederiksen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreverarover Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 The fact Frederickson isn't starting says a lot for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Just need to be patient here. A lot of attacks are breaking down as they run into the packed defence, but I'm not sure Talbot have had two consecutive touches in the Rovers' half. Easton keeps losing the ball, but it's him trying things that's most likely to create proper chances. Otherwise it's just a lot of passing in front of a bank of five and a bank of four. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CALDERON Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 I've not seen a Rovers player attack any cross into the box yet. A load of possession, but absolutely no threat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 (edited) The first 30 minutes was just us camped in their half passing the ball about well but with no cutting edge up front. Now we aren’t even passing about well. Get the big Viking on. Noise them up a bit. Have we had a decent chance yet? At least if we have a decent chance in the second half I’ll get to see it.

Craigus Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Utter jobbies. We are set up like we did to play Dundee away ffs. Talbot happy to let us have the ball wide and cross it to... Lewis Vaughan. Big John is terrible but if he can't get a game here then he really is a total write off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
renton Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 All the ball, zero penetration. Against a packed defence its worth being less intricate and a bit more direct. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raith Against The Machine Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Talbot have done exactly what they set out to do, which is drop into the final third and limit any space for the Rovers, then play on the break when the opportunity arises. I'd be sorely tempted to take Stanton away and put on either Connell or Frederiksen on, for the long throws as much as anything else. Just gives us another dimension, because we've looked a wee bit short of inspiration. Doesn't help that Vaughan is falling into the same habit as the rest of our lone forwards this season, where he's not getting involved so he drops deep, and we're left with nobody up front. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brashy's Boots Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Man, we've got some fucking idiot supporters in here today, booing and hounding our own players. O’Riordan doesn't control a ball properly, his 2nd mistake since he got here, and there are mouth breathers up the back hurling abuse. Boos at half time etc. Sure it's frustrating. They're sitting 5 and 4 at the back, but jesuschristalmighty, can we not lose the plot just yet? Seems the piece the club put out on mental health through the week has had the opposite effect to that intended. I fucking despair sometimes. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Specky Ginger Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 Despite what the Sky app is saying, we must be close to 80% possession, but absolutely zero penetration. I'm not sure we need two holding midfielders in front of two centre halves for this game. Set piece delivery has been even worse than normal. Job very well done by Talbot so far. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foreverarover Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 If they knew fine well they were going to play with 10 men behind the ball then it's frigging pointless toners playing midgets up front. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
