Ro Sham Bo Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 With Vaughan out, Hendry is the crucial one. If he's out for any longer than a few weeks our title hopes have gone and the focus will be on making the play offs and hoping we have as near a fully fit squad as possible by then. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it does look like months rather than weeks. If we could even get him back for the last few weeks of the season so he's up to speed for the play offs that would be something I suppose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottydog Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Looks very much like Reagan is a hope for the best but prepare for the worst scenario. Never mind a few weeks, I'll happily take any outcome that see's him taking part in games between January and May. No news yet on Allan or Victoria? Also nothing about Vaughans pending operation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kev23 Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 If Hendry is out long term it's a blow for sure but it's far from terminal. We still have a good enough team to get into the playoffs at least saying we are up shit creek is a tad melodramatic. I agree. A midfield 2 of Spencer and Matthews is more than decent, especially if we can revert back to our back 5. It's a blow, but we'll adapt. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't feel he's an out and out winger. But then, that causes an issues as I'd want us to find a place for Daniel Armstrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dingwall's stats show he’s not up for that, 4 goals in all appearances for county. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 It's not all doom and gloom, Spencer and Matthew's are back which is 2 thirds of our midfield. The Anderson's are back, if we return to 3 at the back they should keep things tight and grant has been a real find up front. It's just going to be a case of experimenting with gullan, dingwall, Armstrong and anyone else that can do a job. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ro Sham Bo Posted October 29, 2019 Share Posted October 29, 2019 Yeah Dingwall is neat and tidy enough but he's not even managed a goal for us yet.I'm not sure I'd have him in my starting eleven. I would probably just pick one of him or Armstrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say McGlynn would then be picking a forward three from Anderson, Bowie, Baird, Dingwall and Armstrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
