I said because the usual negative guys were saying we would win nothing after our game against CSS. That was just as ludicrous 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind we beat Wigan prior to the Ochilview season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We beat St.Johnstone in a BCD game yesterday I believe we will now romp this league and concede under 10 goals! I will come back to this comment when we score at least 10 goals alone between the 4 games against Falkirk -4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ebobsboy Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 (edited) I think more was made out the clip when Donaldson tried to clean out the ball and man and completely missed, we were wide open they score and McGinn is meandering back in a half walk/jog looking like a Sunday league player after a night on the sesh. Cue players standing wondering who's fault it was. Sound familiar? Edited July 2, 2023 by ebobsboy 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheScarf Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 We absolutely hammered St Johnstone last summer in a friendly. I wouldn’t read too much into it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn’t meet the criteria for our fans reading too much into a friendly. We only do that if we don’t absolutely smash a team who are in a lower league than us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RC55 FFC Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 Surprised it’s not just PATG only but I notice on the ticket site that tickets are now on sale for the home friendly versus Arbroath on Sat 15th July. Only the West Stand on sale (not unsurprising). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm glad it was only sarcasm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Fitzgerald Posted July 2, 2023 Share Posted July 2, 2023 (edited) How on earth did that goals conceded comment get not one, but TWO nibbles? My word, you should be ashamed of yourselves. Edited July 2, 2023 by Trump 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not a hater of Oliver but as it stands minus the two mentioned, he is the only one capable of doing the lone striker role, Allan on appearances last season and comments from previous club fans isn't the answer. I think we also have a midfield squad of mainly centre mids, nesbitt and Lawal ain't wide players, Oliver can revert there, Henderson also, Spencer, Mcginn and Yeats, that for me is 6 players competing for 2 places if you take out Oliver as a genuine CM jersey filler. Morrison or Miller gets injured, does that leave Agyeman and Nesbitt as cover ? Time will tell how we set up, I think we need to be more pro active in formations and not too fukn rigid ala Sheerin but not too all over the place ala Rennie with 5 formations in one game, you can tell previous seasons has broke me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFC 1876 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Agyeman should be used out wide and we've got Honeyman & Rhys Walker as options out wide. Lawal also done quite well when he was moved out to wide left in the CSS game. If Oliver's playing(hopefully sparingly) it should only be as the 8 or the 10 in midfield, he's wasted upfront as he spends all his time dropping in or pulling out wide. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fans should keep their feet on the ground as in the past we have build new signings up before then vilifying them. Am hopeful for a good season a winning start done with style would be good 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RC55 FFC Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 On Thursday at the away kit launch for the pitch sponsors, their was a small part of me that was mentally right back to the summer of 2018 & the kit launch for THAT squad/summer….shudders. We can only hope it’s not a season like that Can only apologise for the last one…. Photos courtesy of @Bainsfordbairn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oliver dropping in isn’t the problem. The problem is no one runs beyond the midfield into the final third. Many strikers drop in but have runners behind the last man. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JulioBairn Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 Dylan Tait signs for Hamilton. I hoped they would continue to be a basket case but they look to be putting a half decent side together. Hope Rankine finds a way to make a c**t of it like some of our managers have. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing we went on our best run of form/results with Oliver up top on his own. Our worst form was when McGlynn started his tombola of the starting 11 and a bonus ball for a formation. Injuries played a part mainly Morrison and Kennedy but there was a few strange selections last season. Expecting two untried youngsters to step up is asking a lot to fill wide positions,personally think Lawall is a centre mid, he may do a job if we are on top out there but not when we are not for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
