Guest Ecosse83 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 That was a very weird game tonight, first half in control then just fell apart and all over the place. 2nd half comfortable again. Keeper is a big worry now, pretty awful when called upon. Oliver useless, Nesbitt will still get the flak on here though becuase of who signed him Henderson in the middle is a must now, having him there might just make our season! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d have Oliver in the same category. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henderson coming into the middle was a very good sub by McGlynn and changed the game in our favour. Also thought Kennedy had a pretty good game and Morrison looked more dangerous than he has for a while. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully PJ is just struggling after being out so long ...he was solid enough before his injury & fine in his loan spell...just sharpness surely 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All about winning and it's good to see the goals spread round the team. McGlynn needs to get his team selection spot on in the scum game now or they'll shitfest us to another loss. Morrison Mckay Donaldson Mackie Mccann McGinn Henderson Morrison Oliver Kennedy Alegria Agree other than yeats in for Oliver. Henderson has been dodgy at the back but was like a young Crawford babtie in midfield today. . Prior to him coming in there today we were way to lightweight . He may prefer to be centre half but he’s much more effective in centre mid. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he can help shore it up there and expose us to less of his bombscaring at CH it might be a goer.... Probably not every week though. How was young Finn tonight? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big chungus Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 (edited) Keeper is a major worry imo - was never that convinced by him at his time with us last time or his performances pre injury. Scott Fox sounds like a decent shout. 100% need a right back and probably another centre mid (if budget constraints allow). Paton and Wilson are their two best players. Would definitely be looking at them for next season. Wilson on a two year deal but if Queens drop to part time next year there may be an option in his contract. And for the love of god Mcglynn please play two up top against Dunfermline! Edited December 23, 2022 by Big chungus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluegrass Bairn Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 So, Nesbitt. First 10 mins or so, he had a couple of good touches; his goal assist was unfortunately for QotS 2nd, then when we're struggling at 1-2 he was nowhere to be seen. 2nd half he ran about a lot, admittedly he does look for the ball but without really doing anything with it. He has no presence in a physical contest - didn't see him win a single tackle in midfield. When we really needed to dominate midfield, or make a killer pass, particularly at 2-2, it didn't come from him. QotS aren't very good, so if he cant be effective against them tonight, then who? Nah, he's not for me. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Ecosse83 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Nesbitt isn’t for me long term either, not many of our squad are to be fair but Oliver offers nothing at all and it’s still Nesbitt that gets it. Anyway weird but nice 3 points, hopefully Kelty can do something tomorrow now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Second half was a lot better and whilst we were helped by Queens being garbage we were still clinical enough to take our chances. The only time they looked threatening in that second half was when PJ was doing his best Leo Fasan impressions. He inspires absolutely no confidence whatsoever. Fair play to McGlynn with the double sub obviously I along with pretty much everyone else thought it was mental at the one but both really seemed to work out. Burrell had the legs and tormented their rancid defence as much as Alegria did and Henderson was great in the middle of the park. A real physical presence with a bit of dig that really helped us get on the ball higher up the park. Very impressed with him in there. All 3 goals were taken very well. The deft touch finish from Burrell was absolutely class. Aye we were helped by Queens not marking Henderson but was a peach of a cross from Kennedy and the last was the pick of the bunch for us. Good play from Burrell to get Morrison through on goal but the quality was all from Morrison rinsed whatever jobber defender tried to track back and put Currie on his arse. The MoM tonight could easily have went to either Morrison or Kennedy both having really good games and hopefully gives us a lot of confidence going into the Dunfermline game next week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still too many not good enough and there was no way anybody saw us winning that 5-2. I'm not so sure we got better as opposed to managerless QoS folding like a deck of cards. Ultimately it's three points. On to EEP when absolutely every player will need to be on point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Kinnear Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Weird game for me as was on the drink from 4 o’clock, one of they games where I never felt that worried. Done the business and that’s all that matters. Merry Xmas fellow Bairns COYB 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think ok is about as good as it really gets for Yeats at right back. Defensively he got caught out a few times particularly second half getting dragged towards the ball and leaving space in behind and he never really offers much going forward. Feel a bit for him having to constantly play out of position and whilst he was by no means the worst of the back 4 tonight he still looks pretty uncomfortable there imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could tell Finn didn’t want to go far too forward with McKay being his cover which is fair enough thought Finn was solid but as said before it’ll be Donaldson in for yeats on the 2nd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Something else tonight that I’ve never really noticed before was when playing our from the back McCann would go into the middle of the park a lot with Oliver/Nesbitt moving into his space at left back. He got on the ball a few times but never really led to anything. Just a wee tactical change that I don’t think we’ve done before. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigbrbairn Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 When we went 1-2 down i seriously doubted my sanity sitting in the KM7 stand on a cold December night watching that crap. Second half made me glad i turned out! Though Henderson and Burrell made a big difference. Juan was doing well but i feel that the fresh legs up front floored them 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bairn88 Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Well that was pretty fun on a dismal night. Even the most ardent of Mcglynn fans would say there are giant, League 1 sized holes in our team. However, at 1-2 down, I think we would’ve lost that game in our past 2 seasons - we’ve gone on to win it, scoring 5. Very happy with that improvement. Team picks itself for next week, maybe barring Alegria v Burrell - probably has to be Burrell though. Seen a few complaints over Morrison too - not sure what he could’ve done for those 2 goals?? Morrison, Yeats Donaldson Mackie McCann Mcginn Henderson Morrison Nesbitt Kennedy Burrell Been very critical of Henderson but played himself into the team next week. 10/10 cameo performance 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
