Would be criticised as being too defensive for L1 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Anyone been paying attention to the results of some of our opponents for the season? Some interesting results amongst them. Stirling Albion probably the most surprising and good to see Cove take a hammering from Livi. Is hard to judge with these games but certainly going to get some tough matches this year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is hard to judge with these games but certainly going to get some tough matches this year. Genuinely think that the old cliché applies that it has to be one game at a time. I wouldn't take beating Peterhead tomorrow for granted for instance. Probably not a revelation to some but what's struck me in all the chat about tactics and styles is that we know the lesser teams we face sit in but the flip-side to that and less talked about is their understanding that in the moments they do get at the better teams it has to be quick and not over played. It may be the only opportunity they get. It's that mindset as opposed to ours where we know we'll have to break them down and try to pass around them and have a glut of chances. We need to be honing a clinical mindset and cut out the errors that these teams know they'll only get a few chances to take (and usually do).

Unfortunately so. I expected Hamilton to not be up to much but they have built a good squad and picking up some decent results. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodwall cat Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 (edited) Hamilton and Stirling always seem to do pretty well in the league cup. Previous two seasons both have came second in their group only losing the one game on each occasion. Thankfully it seems to have little connection to how they do in the league.

I saw Daramola at Kelty has scored in every tie and a hat trick in one of them, carrying on the rate he was getting at Bo'ness. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he continues to do well then will be a bit galling to have someone on our doorstep that we missed out on, probably not on much of a wage too! Talking of Kelty, our match against them on the 23rd of September has been moved to 5:30pm to be shown live on Alba.

Did we scout him and McGlynn decide he wasn’t good enough or did we just not scout him ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only losing one game a season out of 4 is decent enough I'd say. You look at st Johnstone. They've been hopeless since they won it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinatoon Bairn Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 We were in for him but it was a matter of game time assurances. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MetalWolf Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 If he can't play one up top then what's the point in us signing another striker who can get goals when used properly.... Either way that boat has sailed, a RB is a higher priority than another striker now 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
