  1. a question for anyone that was their. were we that good or were dumbar that bad or did we just play very good
     
    I thought they looked like they were in a system they were well-drilled in and the forward players linked well. All the new signings looked good for me. The defence wasn't tested but clearly needs added to.

    Of course it's against Dunbar, but as much as you can take from such a game there was a lot to like. Easton being a baller already.
  2. Anyone see another walking wounded player? There were reportedly two surgeries. Spencer seems the obvious candidate, but Vaughan was also confirmed to have had a small job done…just not sure he’d be one of the two mentioned by Murray as he’s not back yet.
    I have not. Vaughan is walking about unaided.

    Has Gullan bulked up or am I imagining it?
  3. Was impressed with Martin in both positions he played. Overall Kelty can be pleased with their performance. They gave as good as they got in the first half. Thistle dominated the second half and deserved the win, but as far as preseason friendlies can be taken as a barometer, it was encouraging.

  4. Lots of things to be positive about after that Raith performance, it would have been doom and gloom going into the league season had they lost to Peterhead. MacDonald looks like one of your best attacking outlets and would have been man of the match had it not been for Bowie. He's clearly still raw but he's massive and he has an end product, grabbing a goal and two assist - even if one of those assist was intended for someone else and went in via a miss-hit cross.

    Hendry and Spencer ran the show in midfield and while he didn't have his best game Allan will take confidence from getting on the scoresheet again.

    Defence is still the biggest concern but the four that started last night seems the most solid, even if Munro behind them did have a few shaky moments. As for Mendy, well you're stuck with him. I'm not sure I've ever seen a player get a cheer after being directly responsible for three goals (which could have been more) in his first two starts. Peterhead had a lot of the ball for spells last night but they struggled to create until Mendy came on. Even after a minute of taking to the field Bene was screaming at him just so he would stand in line with the rest of the back four. I know he was out of position when Watson passed to him but he had enough time to at least take a touch and think about what he was going to do with it. 

    Positives to be had, like I said, but at the moment they look like a team that will concede a lot of goals.

    A special mention for Ando running away with a drop ball after the play had been stopped when we'd been in possession. Top tier shithousing.

    The drop ball rule has changed this season so they are no longer contested. It's not just given the team that last touched the ball - which is definitely going to lead a few controversial decisions which lead to a week-long Sportsound debate.
