gav-ffc Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 I'd go for Gav's team. Would be temped to play Shepherd on the other side though, moving Alston in to the middle and dropping Taiwo. I just don't see it in Sheppard to be honest. Good impact sub once the space opens up. Another season in the development league will do him the world of good.

Aberdeen Cowden Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Hopefully,if we do lose, we can keep the score respectable. Another thrashing would not be good. It's the cup though, and anything could happen. No more injuries, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbri Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 MacDonald Duffie Vaulks Grant Leahy Alston Taiwo Sibbald Cooper Botti Loy Early goal for us usually wins the game against the Beef. Is Gav really Houstie in disguise? With the team selected we will score but can we defend? 4 - 2 for the Bairns Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

onecowden Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Rubbish draw. Rubbish result. Rubbish overall really. We can't even get a goal there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
distresseduke Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Poor game both sides missed an open goal ....we were slightly better than them...sibbald best player on the park...honking performance from Alston he is a lucky man to play 90 minutes. Better from Taiwo kept it simple ..decent tackling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowden Cowboy Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Two snippets from today - one of the worst misses ever by Falkirk player near the end. The ball is gently rolled towards him with the Cowden defence stranded. 6 yards out and it Is a tap in. He somehow blazes it over the bar. Also seemed to me that when the offside flag went up near the end as the ball rolled toward the Falkirk keeper the ref waved play on. The goalie then let the ball run past him to waste time, It then rolled into the net and the ref then changed his mind to spare his blushes and gave the offside. That's what it looked like but maybe the goalie heard the ref whistle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blueminer Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 Poor crowd, but that was predicted. As was us getting beat! At least it was a respectable score this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blunder by McDonald as I saw it. Exactly right. I think McKendrick bottled it as he did on a few occasions beforehand. That should have counted because he didn't blow for the offside as he thought McDonald was going to clear it. He only blew after McDonald fluffed it but certainly before the ball was over the line.

big al Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 1237 at the game says it all. one third of the league crowd. pathetic. we played alright and started to tire in the final third of the game. unfortunately due to 7 missing we didnt have much on the bench and this was our downfall as we needed fresh legs before the goal. a game we could easily have got a replay from but falkirk were slightly the better team without being great. number 2 for falkirk is not a falkirk standard of player, very uncomfortable on the ball. weak link.

Oscar P Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 The fact that it was a cup tie maintained the interest throughout, although it was never exhilarating. Cowdenbeath played their system really well. I have always been impressed with Milne, but thought that Marshall was outstanding playing in front of the defence. Smith's miss was incredible. It has to be the worst one I have seen live. The only possible excuse is that Shepherd's presence put him off, but that's stretching it a bit. Sibbald was excellent, as he was against Alloa last week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kieran duffie... His first game this season after a long injury lay off...he did lack confidence taking his man on...at one time he was arguably our best player Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav-ffc Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 First game in the first team for what 7 months? Good to see him back, some miss from smith, I do think Sheppard put him off tbh. Into the next round and that's all that matters. Spartans at home next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
