FFC 1876

Lemon's essentially competiting for Dixon's spot and unless Dixon gets injured he won't see much game time. May as well get him out on loan so hopefully he can continue improving. Same with Williamson as he's not going to displace Mccann. Weekes I'd rather keep as he'd be a useful option off the bench with his pace and directness.

Having just put myself through the 'highlights' I'm sticking by what I said after the game. We can have no complaints with the freekick as Dixon checks Moore's run and Mutch should really be doing better with the freekick as it looks to be nowhere near the corner. Opportunity missed but hopefully it highlights the need for us to strengthen the squad. Telfer needs to be moved on one, he's wasted doing the donkey work in the holding midfielder role. Ross played as the furthest forward of the three on Saturday and offered nothing. Anybody heard how long Williamson's going to be out for as Miller wasn't terrible on Saturday but by god we could do with him back pronto.

Very worrying to hear Sheerin hint it'll more likely be the end of September before we get anyone else in. Regarding today he did get the subs completely wrong as Ross/Hetherington should have been hooked early in the second half for Krasniqi and Telfer could have then moved on one. Fox was rash and naive for the penalty but the rest of the game he absolutely bullied Keena. Everytime the ball went into Keena's feet he gave him a dunt in the back and the ball never stuck. Which is why I think Sheerin brought Ompreon on as when he came on he had the strength to hold Fox off but never really showed anything other than that. I actually feel sorry for the pelters he's taking though as it's not as if we created anything for him whilst he was on.

We weren't beaten by a better team or outplayed today we just never took our small opportunities in the match and never played as well as we can. Which obviously makes the result more frustrating.

Grant Gallagher bossed the middle of the park again Today which seems to be the norm whenever we play against him.

Could have played 300 minutes and we still wouldn't have scored there. Can't even remember Muir having a save to make. We were shite and for all the running Ross gives you he contributed absolutely nothing on a footballing perspective today. Penalty was our chance to turn it around and we fluffed it.

I think it was a freekick as he was bodied by Dixon I think but for me the freekick didn't look like it was bang in the corner so for me having obviously not seen it back Mutch should have done better. We've been the better team but in the final third we've picked the wrong ball.

Never mind Ernie it's Dixon we need up top you seen his goals lately. Left foot, right foot, headers, he's got it all.

We still not signed a striker? Keena will be fine but Ompreon's a complete gamble and Wilson's absolute dug meat.

Equally I'm having palpations about Longridge on Gary Miller. Dixon's played with Murray so he'll know exactly what to expect. Hopefully Krasniqi plays and him & Telfer dominate the middle of the park as they have Gillespie & Liam Brown in there. I'll go 3-1 Falkirk with Doyle to give away 3+ fouls. As someone has said hopefully we'll have brought in another striker by then so we don't need to see Wilson ever again.

A lot of people on here moaned that we let Doyle go and signed Mercer last season. Mercer was shite but this series of tweets sums Doyle up perfectly. £10 on it being a completely needless foul he didn't have to give away.

Grant sticking with his 5 at the back. You love to see it.

Didn't take Stuart Taylor long to secure himself a gig as a manager. Will be interesting to see how he gets on, Rice hasn't exactly left him with huge shoes to fill.

Think he plays as either a left winger or a left back.

Nice to see glue's still readily available in Cumbernauld.

Sheerin in the herald saying Mckay was back training this week, so he's back in contention for the Clyde game. Williamson's still out with no mention of the injury or how long he'll be.

Someone seems incredibly salty about the situation

Still needs to work on his final product which is why he's still here. Two assists and a goal from the opening 3 league games though so he's improved this season. Obviously helps that we've got some support up there with him this year and the football we're playing this year suits him much better.

Brilliant news getting him tied down but 3 different contracts in the space of a year shows how well we've been doing with the contracts. Better get Telfer extended also, if he's not already got the option of another year in his contract.

He'll absolutely hate having to start every week right enough.

I'll go 3-1 Falkirk as our defence will have a Ben Hall and Gary Miller so we're bound to concede. Two goals from Keena and one from Morrison.

They are completely different players. Reilly will sit in between the posts and wait on something falling his way whereas Mcmanus went and made things happen on his own. Listen if we do sign him then hopefully he'll prove me wrong but I've never been impressed with him when he's played against us. The year St Mirren went up Lewis Morgan and Cammy Smith were the two main threats that you worried coming up against.

81 league games for Reilly the last 3 seasons 8 goals and 0 assists. 87 league games for Mcmanus the last 3 seasons 29 goals 9 assists. Mcmanus gives you so much more than just a goal threat and last season alone scored more and assisted more than Reilly has in the last 81 league games he's played. *using transfermarkt stats

Essentially whoever we're bringing in should be on par or better than Aidan Keena as right now he's our best striker. Ompreon is our gamble and Wilson's an absolute waste of a jersey so we don't need another one of those.

You are forgetting we've all watched Reilly play against our team numerous times with numerous different clubs and I can't remember once thinking 'this boys a player we'll need to watch out for him' Back in his QOS days he had a bit of pace but there's no chance he'll have any of that now. He doesn't create goals like Mcmanus could and scoring 11 league goals in a title winning side is hardly something to brag about. Nathan Austin scored 10 the season after for a 3rd place Inverness as a comparison. 8 league goals in the last 3 years and jumped from club to club never really holding down a starting spot. It's a no from me. If you're giving me the option of Ruth or Reilly I'm picking Ruth as we already know what Reilly is like where as Ruth is an unknown. But preferably it wouldn't be either of them.
