latapythelegend Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Moving onto Ayr Utd on Tuesday. I like the Challenge Cup and hate losing in any Cup but still see need to rotate things I'd go with: Hogarth Blisland Donaldson Hayward McCann Henderson Nesbitt Lawal Oliver Morrison Allan Ayr will be making changes as well so a good chance e for guys like Hayward to get more than 10/15 mins to see what they can do. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Proudtobeabairn Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Bad couple of days for Hamilton, losing 2 players on deadline day then drawing yesterday. Interesting to see how they respond. Suspect they'll use their cash to work the loan market over the next few weeks but hopefully Rankin won't find anyone decent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFC 1876 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Thought we were excellent yesterday but by god we missed some sitters. Nesbitt's at the back post from the MacIver dink and Morrison battering it straight into the man on the line having done everything else right. Could have been nervy as they had a few chances themselves in the second half. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owen Hayward? Play a goalie at centre back? Maybe you mean Logan Sinclair? Edited September 3, 2023 by Bairn in Exile 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In keeping with our squad’s versatility, yes why not stick Hayward in defence and see how he goes Joking aside, get Sinclair on at the back alongside McKay at CB, rest Donaldson and Lang. Throw Honeyman and Walker on and rest Hendo and Morrison. It’s a free hit for these players to see if they can push for a starting jersey.

Bairn in Exile Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 4 hours ago, bridge of allan bairn said: I'm quietly optimistic about our start, however, tempered with the fact that 4 of our opening 5 games have come against the 4 of the bottom 5 sides. We've yet to play Hamilton and QoS and drew with Cove (albeit unluckily). A win against these 2 would show we've moved on from the nightmares of previous seasons. Its also good we are winning more games as opposed to drawing, those draws in previous seasons are like death by a thousand cuts, they aren't enough to win the league. Better to go for the throat, as we have been doing and lose the odd game or goal than scrape draws. Just had a look at who we've played and who Hamilton have played and there isn't much in it. We have both played Stirling, Cove and Edinburgh and while we've played Alloa in 6th and Annan in 9th, they've played Kelty in 5th and Montrose in 7th. Yes, it's looking like everything will hinge on our games against QoTS and each other. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodwall cat Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 (edited) I'm still not sure queen of the south will be in the running. They've lost at home to Montrose and Alloa , have scraped a couple of wins but are are leaking goals at an alarming rate. They are also only in phase two of the how to make a right mess of getting out of league one plan. They've done the keep the boy we got relegated with and have replaced him with the person or persons with absolutely no managerial experience whatsoever. Hamilton are currently still in phase one.

We wrote the book on “how to make a right mess off getting out of league one plan”. Hopefully, this is now the final chapter and we’ll be out of the league come the end of the season.

Popular Post Falkirkwheel Posted September 3, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 3, 2023 (edited) I was going through some old photos and came across this. This was me back in 2008 in Basra, Iraq. Everyone emailed the respective clubs we support asking for them to donate any kits so we could play 5 a side. Falkirk sent THREE boxes of kit out to us. Amazing…. the big clubs (Scottish and English), that replied to our ask, only sent 2/3 scarfs, maybe a car air freshener. No footy kits at all. I was so proud to be a Falkirk fan and that will never change! This photo also featured in a match programme that season too.

New commentators are really good but wouldn’t say an upgrade personally as think Lewis and Stuart done a great job too.

Gaz Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Said to my mates last season that if McGlynn gets this season what we really needed is a season like 04/05 when we're so much better than everybody else. Obviously we don't yet know that, and have still to play Hamilton, but this has been a very good start to the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m really not surprised Lewis and Stuart decided to pack it in when this is thanks they get for putting in countless amounts of their own time and money over the years. It’s possible to praise the new guys without denigrating the previous regime. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
