Lewis still has a good role to play for us, and undoubtably has skills that are still important to success this season, but… Edited August 7, 2023 by TxRover 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Must have seen different games from me. Do you mean Lewis Vaughan who scored and assisted Vs Annan yeah? What did Smith do on Saturday better than Lewis? The cross to Hamilton that Lewis played a great pass to put him in that position? You’d seriously have him in a 10 above Vaughan? No chance. Or are you sticking with the two up top that meant our midfield got completely overran on Saturday for most of it? I can slightly understand the point that maybe both don’t start when everyone is fully fit if playing two DMs to make us more solid, but to say Smith is ahead of him after scoring exactly one goal so far is way off it. That isn’t meant to be a slight on Smith, he just hasn’t demonstrated he is as good a player in that position as Vaughan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beastie Russell Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 Smith hit the bar 2nd half and didn’t get involved in an off the ball spat with Ben Williamson, he also played more minutes. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, if you have one of Brown, Matthews or McGill free to play and want to go 4-2-3-1, then at the moment you'd really have to let Easton play in that 10 role with Smith and Mullin wide playing off of Hamilton. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross or Easton on the left for me after what I’ve seen. Think Gullan is superior than Smith in that position when fit too. Vaughan as the 10 and Brown/Matthews/McGill in the middle with Stanton depending on fitness. Smith perfectly suitable replacement for injuries and impact sub. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smith perfectly suitable replacement for injuries and impact sub. Easton will do a job out wide but he's been better through the pre season/LC playing more central in the three behind the two. Just on form alone, he'd have the starting berth. Ross can't be match fit yet, f**k knows if Gullan ever will be for more than an hour at a time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching that reverse angle from the RaithTV shot makes it very clear how well Mitchell did to hang back in a nice little clear spot out front of the goal, and then bury the shot across the goalie diving to the left…gave the keeper no chance to save it. That’s a very composed finish for such a young player. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonnae no, Dylan. Seen that in the highlights too. Murray did say last season that he thought he'd got to the bottom of our injury problems. Little did we know it's cause Easton gets carried away and just starts kicking our own players when he gets excited.

Broken Algorithms Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 Brilliant news. There'll no doubt be semantics over who is included, but ultimately it's 1700 folk committing to go to most games. Ideally over the next few seasons we can kick on and push up to 2000+. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
