notsofedupendie replied to GableEnder21's topic in Scottish League 1 General Chatter
Martin is an enigma wrapped up in a conundrum .. I know that’s bollocks but .. he has talent and a cracking left foot .. but he’s been awful since he returned and was poor prior to his move to Ireland. Don’t forget he couldn’t get a game for us at that point. Unless there’s something going on behind the scenes that we don’t know about I’m struggling to understand why he’s still on the books. Rusty is a lazy so and so .. possibly because at 10 foot tall he didn’t have to do much to score when he was a kid. That said, his goals to attempts ratio is impressive and is why Morton are looking at him, I assume. If he could motivate himself enough to start dishing it out to centre halves .. he’s way too soft for a centre forward ... he’d be every bit as good as Lyndon Dykes. So, if I had to choose between the two right now I’d go for Rusty. Ideally, both stay and Martin rediscovers his mojo. -

What’s the story with Cammy and Rusty? Have they got other offers on the table? -

Retaining both keepers seems a strange decision to me as neither has inspired much confidence over the season. Hopefully, SP has a cunning plan. I assume Cammy and Rusty must have other offers under consideration which raises the concern that one or both may well end up leaving. Not sure how I feel about who we’ve got signed up other than we desperately need a bit of extra pace and nous up top. -
And .. on a purely footballing level .. 4 of the team that played in those games against Brora are still first team regulars .. including our current top goal scorer. Just goes to show what a decent manager can do.
-
When you put it like that ... it’s been a remarkable period of time.
-
Thought we thoroughly deserved the win. Very poor in the first half .. barely strung 3 passes together, which is unusual. Got the feeling we gave Morton too much respect and they looked a bit sharper without really creating anything. SP must’ve got into them at halftime because it was pretty much one way traffic in the second half. I was surprised how poor Morton were. Both Airdrie and Cove are much better sides. That said, we’ve been here before and ran into Stephen Dobbie ... so still a long way to go.

Clyde were a big team in the 60’s .. over time they dropped down the leagues .. thought they were a big team and dismissed the demotions as a bit of a blip. Moved to a ground they didn’t own .. suddenly discovered that they were not as big a team as they thought .. even managed to lose 8-1 to a seaside league team.
-
Entitlement = thinking you deserve better than that which you currently have. I agree with you .. with a half decent manager you should have been promoted last season and possibly this. Of course you’re entitled to vent your frustration at your management team. That’s completely different from the sense of entitlement/superiority that a vocal section of your support seems to have when it comes to the rest of this league.
-
Fair play ..the seaside league thing is a good wind up. I’m happy to be avoiding Club 42 again.
-
Thing is .. in your words “It’s a fucking stinking level of football which makes the fact we are even here even worse” .. exposes your sense of entitlement. Time to wake up .. otherwise you’re going down the Clyde route.
-
It’s because we’ve had to put up with your patronising “seaside leagues” pish for the last two seasons.
-
As a Mo supporter of 50+ years I can understand your pain. That said .. from the outside looking in it does look like you’re going down the same route as Clyde. A “big” club with history that shouldn’t be in this league. Frankly, you’re not. Some of the nonsense your support comes out with is Sevco’esque. You’re down here because you’re not good enough to be anywhere else. As for the playoffs .. if Cove keep Megginson fit your fkkd.

Montrose Vs Cove
notsofedupendie replied to CoveRangers1922's topic in Scottish League 1 General Chatter
Result was what I expected before kick off. Cove are a very tidy team who seem to rely entirely on Megginson to score their goals. The first was very well executed .. the second was well taken but a bit of a disaster defensively for us. No complaints .. we were well beaten and I hope Cove deservedly go up via the playoffs. Much better team than Falkirk. -
Airdrie v Montrose
notsofedupendie replied to broomiesniper's topic in Scottish League 1 General Chatter
Martin has done nothing since his return and tbh very little in the lead up to his move to Ireland. Was astonished we got money for him. Suspect he’ll be gone over the summer. Hawke has been poor so no surprise if he’s going/gone. Think SP is going to have to pull a few rabbits out of hats during the close season to bring in the extra quality we need. -
Airdrie v Montrose
notsofedupendie replied to broomiesniper's topic in Scottish League 1 General Chatter
Got what we deserved .. two defensive mistakes .. end of story. I can only assume Rusty was injured and Hawke has been ditched (Antioniazzi had his shirt on tonight) .. only explanation for Rossco starting for the first time in two seasons? Airdrie were the better side for the first 20 mins and deserved to be ahead. After that it was 50:50. No complaints with the end result .. we look fkkd. Can’t wait for this season to end. -

Best RB in the league IMO. Always get 7/10 from him and usually more than that. Would be a big loss if he was to go but I’ve no doubt the lure of full time football would be hard to turn down. If he goes he goes with nothing but best wishes and thanks for the memories. -

Partick Thistle vs Mo- TNF - 7pm

Looks like the schedule has finally caught up with us. Suspected it after the second half on Saturday. Knackered after 20 mins and got what we deserved. Quicker this season is over the better. Might be a struggle to win another game this season. As for the cup game on Saturday .. play the youth team. -

Pretty much. In simple terms .. East Fife play Airdrie in their last game so one or the other will drop points. If Airdrie win they move to 29 .. if Fife win their other they move to 27 (with a 6 goal deficit on us). If Fife beat Airdrie then Airdrie finish on 26. One win for us and we go to 27. -

So after tonight’s results it boils down to one win from the next two games gets us in the top five. If not .. we could still get relegated (albeit unlikely). -

Yet another Lennox fkk up. Time for him to be punted. Suspect that may just have cost us a top 5 spot. -

Have the feeling that Saturday is a must win for us. Anything else will leave us wide open to ending up 6th. Too many draws in the last 6 games has cost us big time. Been poor v Clyde, Fraserburgh and last night. That said we usually end seasons well. -
Dumbarton vs Montrose
notsofedupendie replied to The Moonster's topic in Scottish League 1 General Chatter
Well that was eye bleedingly bad. Could’ve/should’ve scored a couple in the second half but truth be told 0-0 was what that game deserved. A lot of draws across the 2 lowest leagues tonight ... maybe a sign that everyone is a bit knackered?
