RRFC1989 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Whilst I don't see Smith trying this, its how I'd have us shape up on Saturday. Vaughan has shown he can defend and both him and Barr have the energy to get up and down the wing all game. I think Robertson is vital to the midfield and McKay looked very shaky against Alloa. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could do, or how about a 3-4-3 ------------Thompson----Davidson-----Murray-------- ----Barr------Robertson--------Herron--------Matthews ---------------------------Vaughan--------------------------------- ------------Buchanan---------------Spence------------------------- I think though, that it'll be one of the young guys fitted into the existing system, and probably Mckay at that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grumswall Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Changing the system when it's working well would be a poor move. We will have to use the young players throughout the season so no point in not doing it tomorrow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.C Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Yeah with the younger players seeing Cal break through and get his move you would imagine it's given them an extra kick to push on. In reality one of them should start tomorrow keeping any changes to a min 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of this 3 at the back nonsense on a big pitch with whippets like Thomson and Davo playing at the back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will have to use the young players throughout the season so no point in not doing it tomorrow. Seems the right way to go. I'd like to see Brian in front of Smith but I don't think Barry will go down that route. Also on a side note, I believe Spence (illness) could be doubtful for tomorrow. This might allow us a better look at Zanatta or Osei if Smith wants to keep the system familiar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.C Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Hopefully we able to exploit the width of the pitch with Barr and Thompson. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Rae2 Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 not sure whether Mathews or Herron will be the best choice, Mathews has been looking kind of shaky but may just be because of missing so much football 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still have no idea why Brian was dropped. Smith has good distribution and communication but Rory didn't put a foot wrong in the games he has featured in. I haven't been impressed by osei so far. His positional awareness is non existent. You can hear everyone telling him where to go. Understandable to an extent but it's no as if he's being asked to play a new position. I prefer court, he's a more physical presence and showed at the end of last season he has a good finish. Zannata is probably the best shout for tomorrow starting if Spence is out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted September 15, 2017 Author Share Posted September 15, 2017 Vaughan as a left wing back is right up there with the most batshit suggestions I've seen for a while. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Scott Roberts has actually managed to find himself another professional football team.He has signed for Annan Athletic. Well done to him. He looked a 'straight to Juniors' case.If I was a Sevco Rangers fan, I would be questioning what is going on at Murray Park. They pretty much have the pick of the youngsters in Scotland and still produce virtually nothing in youth talent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Id give Osei his chance if Spence isn't fit. Osei has shown very little to get excited about in his cameo appearances, but you never know. Maybe if he got 90 minutes he'd do the business. Personally, I don't see it happening. I'd go with Zannatta if Spence is out. Saying that Osei has pace, while Vannatta didn't look particularly fast. Might be a benefit on a large pitch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason Vaughan has been outstanding this season is because he'll have been given the freedom of the pitch.Why drop him back a bit..when there is absolutely no need to..? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 Whatever we do tomorrow we should stick with the system that's got us where we are and leave Vaughan with the same role he's had all season.If Spence is out then play Zannatta or Court, but please God not Osei. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
