cliftonphil Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Home Win. Will hopefully make it. The Lada may not however...built for Russian winters but a day trip to Arbroath clearly a bridge too far (Clackmannanshire Bridge that is) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Albino Rover Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 EF were poor at Cliftonhill and managed to bore us out to a stalemate on their patch, but the Rovers can't really settle for any more draws- our aim has to win every game, certainly at home. With a crucial midweek game yet to be arranged, I think we really need to watch our fitness. Ross McNeil and Chris Dallas have departed without replacement, so at the front of the pitch John Gemmell is clearly our plan A and B. Even plan C is Mark McGuigan, who when played up-front is basically a skinny version of Gemmell with impaired finishing ability who constantly strays offside. Jamie Pollock scored the opener in the first edition of this fixture- we could do worse than putting him back in the team, alongside former Fifer Gary Fisher. At risk of underestimating EF, I'd also perhaps suggest a trio of Love, Cusack and Phillips behind the striker. It may seem a bit strange to put so much confidence in a teenager, but if Kyle Turnbull returns I'll be much more confident about our title chances.

Albino Rover Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 You know my view. He's the best striker in the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Compliment Sandwich Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 You know my view. He's the best striker in the team. Chaplain's certainly the best footballer at the club but, to be fair, does a lot of his freedom in front of goal not come through Gemmell making a nuisance of himself and occupying the centre backs attention?

Albino Rover Posted January 13, 2015 Share Posted January 13, 2015 That might be (partly) true, but I'd like to see him given a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monthefife Posted January 14, 2015 Share Posted January 14, 2015 Wonder how many subs we'll have this weekend? 3 if we're lucky? Desperately in need of a creative midfielder and a goalscorer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a pity he couldn't do it somewhere else. #intheseconddivisionforevermore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or if Naysmith is fit will he go in at left bk !!Depends on Scott Smith, if he's back fit he goes lb and Liam Smith plays rb (otherwise why have him on loan and not play him)If neither Naysmith or Scott Smith are fit then we probably play the same back 4.Campbell in midfield.
