The Moonster Posted October 26, 2015 Share Posted October 26, 2015 Andy did organise the defence; Barr doesn't. 2012-2013 - 83 goals conceded. 2013-2014 - 64 goals conceded. 2014-2015 - 79 goals conceded. 226 goals conceded in 108 games equates to roughly 2.1 goals conceded every game. We finished 5th in the league with a goal difference of +1 in 2014. Sorry but I can see why Stevie Aitken felt a change might be needed there. And up until Saturday we were conceding roughly 1.6 goals per game, after Saturday it's 1.9 - still better than any defence with Andy in it. I liked him, he was a lovely guy but that seems to be distorting peoples views on his actual football ability. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I may head to the bridge afterwards, u may find me washed up on the shore next to the stadium alongside some shopping trolleys! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd still offer more movement than our backline for the 3rd goal 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Vojáček Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Scottish cup draw tomorrow (10am) who are we fancying? Be nice to play someone from outwith the league, a Highland league team like Wick, at home, or a more local outfit like Linlithgow or East Kilbride away. Failing that, it's been a while since we were last at Cliftonhill or Galabank. Both of those would be decent enough. *Awaits Queen of the South 3-0 Dumbarton, 28th November 2015, being drawn* 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite why you'd prefer letting the Wick fans have a tremendous day out rather than the other way around I do not know! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite why you'd prefer letting the Wick fans have a tremendous day out rather than the other way around I do not know!I was up that way the other week and have to say the likes of Wick Academy, Brora Rangers and Golspie all have cracking wee grounds.Fingers crossed we can get a decent away day!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supersons Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Turriff, Buckie, formartine , Huntly, Wick or Cove will do nicely Fortunately Marco de Barros does not play for Huntly anymore after what happened in 1992 at boghead 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pleslie99 Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 We will draw Falkirk or Dunfermline and be decidedly disappointed. On another note, with a couple of weekends off coming up I am going to be able to take in a couple matches, 1 of these being ibrox, what's the deals with getting tickets for there? Can we rock up and pay at the gate or do we need to get from the stadium in the week leading up? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the only exception to that in recent years we actually reached the quarter-final. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 I'd love a monster trip up north somewhere against a highland league outfit but I always fear we get one, everyone travels up full of joy and bevy and the opposing team score a last minute shiter meaning we all traipse home embarassed, steamin' and wishing we hadn't invested 50 quid in watching us get beat 250 miles away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boghead ranter Posted October 28, 2015 Share Posted October 28, 2015 Fortunately Marco de Barros does not play for Huntly anymore after what happened in 1992 at boghead Though he could probably still embarrass our current defence at the moment. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
