The Toun Clock Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Nae Todd or Kane in the reserves squad. At what point do we start getting worried that they’ve had a breakdown? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Hoping they are just being kept fresh for Friday. Would imagine today will be the most involved training session ahead of the game so maybe they just can't miss this training? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 We have a game on Friday night. Neither will start and it's possible only one will be on the bench anyway. No first team players are in the reserve team squad today. Reckon it's some worry over absolutely nothing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Toun Clock Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Well if it's anything like last week we'll get the pre-match interview tomorrow ahead of Friday's game. I think they'll be involved in the squad on Friday so likely they're wanted at training today. I drove past them training this morning and funnily enough on the way back I passed two of the young guys who are playing for the reserves so the times would have clashed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallumPar Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Friday game means less time to recover/assess impact of the reserve game. The management/medical team probably just think it would be better to get a full week of training and 10-15 minutes on Friday, rather than not training today, playing 45 mins and then being on a recovery schedule for 2 days before the game on Friday. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where about do we train nowadays? I go past the Civil Service Sports Ground and I've not seen anyone there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if that's every day or not but definitely on a Monday/Tuesday as I take my wee boy to my mums around 11:15 on those days and can see the yellow shirts running about. my wee boy used to do Pars Foundation Mini Dribblers on a Monday morning too and they'd be coming on to start as he was finishing. No idea what the craic is with the Civil Centre Sports Ground. Hopefully a supporters meeting isn't too far on the horizon and these questions can be asked. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted November 7, 2023 Share Posted November 7, 2023 Don't want to risk saying this on the game thread, but I reckon we'll turn Utd over on Friday. Perhaps even comfortably. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I drive last the Civil Centre Sports ground and nothings happened for months, today however there was a couple of diggers? Parked up which says something is going to happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I understand it from a point of training, having everything in one place but I love a grass pitch. Saying that, since I'm only in my early 30's, my glory days of watching the Pars were during our plastic pitch era, maybe it's time to come home... I think someone did ask this at a supporters meeting last year and as far as I'm aware it wasn't something the club were looking at. If we can have a nice academy with artificial surfaces then I'd sooner have that than having a plastic pitch at EEP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
par-adise Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Todd confirmed to be in the squad on Friday. Good chance he won't get on but he's back earlier than I thought he might be, so even if it takes the rest of November to get him to a position where he'll be starting games that's still great news. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted November 8, 2023 Share Posted November 8, 2023 Aye if he's warming up and getting back into the routine that's positive. Honestly don't expect either Todd or KRH back to their best by new year. Earlier would be great but we need them to not suffer any more set backs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our of interest why do you think it will take 2 months? Todd has had a full pre season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the laddie has been out for some time. IMO, football teams evolve as the play more competitive game, our two lads haven’t been involved with that so will take a while to get up to speed. I don’t think it’ll take until January tho, but I’m no expert on this. One thing is for sure, I’m beyond excited about the guys being on the bench, and if they get even a wee ten minute run out I’d be well pleased. the whole dynamic of the team will change and evolve if our dynamic duo get regular starts again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know, they've both been out for several months and I think it takes time to get back to peak levels. Although with so many games left this calendar year, could well be before then. Match sharpness just takes time and part of me is simply wary of asking too much of them too soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
