    Kabia is clearly technically good, and certainly up there for most technical at the club, but that make little difference when it doesn't result in anything.  He does the same thing every game (receives the ball on the left, cuts in a little deeper and swings a ball in which is either headed out or collected by the keeper). Is he our best option on the left? Yeah, almost certainly but technical ability needs work ethic and intelligence. Leslie came on and immediately got a goal back due to his physical attributes and desire, despite being nowhere near as good as Kabia technically. 

     

    Ballantyne may run about but off and on the ball he's shocking and offers little. Grant gets abuse all game but at least he tries to pass or create, Ballantyne is a passenger and is getting away with it imo 

    Who put the ball through for Leitch on Saturday? Who cut in from the left and swung a ball in for Allan to score a few weeks ago? To say he contributes nothing is disingenuous, however when at the arse end of the league with games running out I agree that you need an all round game and not just show pony skillz

    Spot on so satisfying after the way they celebrated at Stair Park and also down to the time wasting today. Revenge is sweet.  

    It was hilarious watching the keeper have a fit that the ballboy didn't throw the ball to him quickly enough once they were one down. Must have interfered with his juice bottle drinking schedule or his OCD ritual for placing and replacing the ball multiple times at goal kicks.

    Don't hate him, I just don't think he offers enough, and goes missing for large parts of the game.

    Don't agree re last week, too many times he lost possession and when he did, didn't seem too bothered about getting it back.

    He obviously is talented and his delivery into the box is the best we have in the Squad, but he is a bit of a luxury player. If the game is a battle then you get very little from him. If it is an open game then he can be exciting to watch. Last week, he tried so many nutmegs, flicks etc. to beat a man and not one of them came off, with the result being Spartans turned the ball over and ended up on the attack. Perhaps his best role for us is as an impact sub when McCall has sussed out the opposition and can deploy him in the most effective position.

    I went to Elgin midweek, we lost
    I went to Stranraer, we lost.
    I went midweek against Forfar, we lost.
    I thought f**k it I'm not going to Stenhousemuir... 😂

     

    I'm starting to think I'm a Jonah.

    I also had zero inclination to go today after witnessing the game on Tuesday. However at the last minute decided to watch the live stream from "France" so at least got to see some absolute belters of goals.
