That’s actually part of the problem throughout the whole club. We are in this position for a reason and the reason is we are not good enough. Noone has said we're better than Montrose. They are have been far better than us up to this point. The gap yesterday though wasn't what I'd call insurmountable. With a couple more signings and a bit of gelling in the side there's no reason why we couldn't get a result against them at home in the next game. We aren't going to overtake them points wise but we may on the park at least close the gap. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A little movement on it I'd prefer as it can be an unforgiving formation at times. The key is the full backs, if they ain't on it it's a struggle creating. It's a pity Dixon wasn't on the bench yesterday, that might have made all the difference. We got lucky that day, it was 2 going on 5 for Montrose until Sheerin had a brain fart going two up 3 5 2 would be fine with a fully fit defence and another midfielder with a bit of steel. The problem at the moment is we have Jacobs and a bunch of lightweights to fill the 3 centre mid roles. One of them playing 10 in front of Jacobs and a n other would get more out the system. Not playing mcguffie at lwb would help too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pars reject. Hull City teenager, Returned loan. Hopefully this puts an end to the money talks we are a big club nonsense. The quality we want will have better options. Next few games will make or break Rennie & Millers future at FFC as making the playoffs will be their benchmark. I’m at the stage of giving Rennie & Miller the gig next season even if we fail to get up this season. It’s clear Rennie is trying, but with half the squad not good enough he’s no fool, and knows at least six or seven need binned first week on May. The model next season has to be so much better and I’m all for a mix of part time / full time players, the argument with fitness etc with pt time players is complete utter nonsense, I’ve watched players who look a hellava lot fitter than ours who train two or three nights/times a week. It’s time for the club to take stock of what we’ve become and work with this type of model, I don’t think I could take another season of players (being polite)who looked like they couldn’t two Fcks about playing for the club. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ecosse83 Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Honking yesterday absolutely honking. How long does Rennie persist with 352? It just doesn’t seem to be working consistently enough just now. There also seems to be a lack of plan B just now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dabber Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Watched the friendly on Tuesday versus Dunfermline. Wilson, at wing back, was our best player.... Has anyone really seen him play!? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TedCrilly Posted January 30, 2022 Share Posted January 30, 2022 Hopefully we will see a much needed centre mid to come in and play next to Jacobs. As evidently seen on Saturday we can only get away with one of Nesbitt / Telfer. I don’t think Rennie will deviate from 3 at the back so I wouldn’t mind seeing the below when Dixon is back:- Mutch Watson Dixon ATS Williamson Jacobs New McCann Telfer Dowds Kabia/Morrison 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another clear out at the end of the season and the same problems. There are players out there that can deliver the goods and get you up the leagues Cove Rangers proved it. So get talking now to 6 - 7 players* out of contract at the end of the season and sell them a 2-3 year contract as the spine of a team with the prize of premier league football. Rest made up of players given a chance to come good. *Goalkeeper + 2 center backs + 2 midfielders + 2 forwards with stability comes success. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If performances don't drastically improve we'd be mad to stick with Rennie. He still has it all to prove.

The home performances under Sheerin were unbelievably bad, almost every game. We were far better away than at home under him. Rennie must address that from next week - the time for talk is over 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye I don’t disagree. Listening to Rennies interview, I can’t see us bringing in 3 players though which I feel we need. (GK, CM and ST). CM would make the biggest impact on our side, imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Centre mid is absolutely the priority, then another forward and whilst a better goalkeeper would be welcome not as vital as getting the midfield sorted. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone is understandably impatient but the lack of understanding of how big a job Rennie has to do and how difficult it is to source new players and then assimilate them into a functioning team is staggering. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
