bhoy who invented weetabix Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Bilate out of tomorrow. Hammy went a little on Sunday so is being left out as a precaution. Ive seen a prelim team for tom as we are waiting on a few boys to shake off niggles. More attacking which isnt really that difficult considering Havent seen much of the guy as you clearly have but, based on Sunday not much of a loss. Looked pretty hopeless, Ciftci on the other hand always causes us problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waffelz Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 He was okay. Souttar or Rankin at left back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArabianKnight Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 3-5-2 tomorrow? Souttar Morris Fojut McGowan Butcher Paton Rankin Dow/Erskine Anier/Dow Ciftci Would be my guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinkle Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 He was okay. Souttar or Rankin at left back? Im hearing we could be adopting wing backs with Ranks and Spittal. As i say, theres a couple of guys nursing knocks so i wont know any more til tom afternoon. Will obviously post when i know for definite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
captainkev Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Left back? Ah f**k it, we should just wing it. Its highly likely that we'll finish up with ten men anyway, lets save the referee the trouble and not bother putting out that inevitably disposable 11th player on in the first place.

ArabianKnight Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Spittal up against Commons doesn't fill me with a lot of positive vibes likes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banana Posted March 18, 2015 Author Share Posted March 18, 2015 I do generally really like the 3-5-2 formation (I brought it up last week or so), but against the popular solo striker formation of today, Celtic included, you're left with at least one centre-back standing with their cock in their hand with the extra load being put upon the positional sense, fitness and game-reading of your wing-backs and the ability of someone in your middle 3 to support/link with the front two and the two DMs to try to control the game while outnumbered. Unless someone in the back 3 can play effectively as a libero (Souttar?). With Dixon already out I'm not sure this is the right time to experiment. I reckon we'll go the cup final 4-4-2 that has really split folk into two camps - I'm of the camp that thought it was a good starting strategy that was working pretty well when we had eleven players on the park. f**k moving McGowan to left back and having two players out of position rather than one. Spark gets the nod. Rado McGowan Fojut Morris Spark Spittal Butcher Paton Rankin Ciftci Dow Connolly in for Spittal if we're being a bit more adventurous, which I don't think we will be. As pish as Rankin was/is with the ball going forward now, he can still run around and protect Spark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Peh McBridie Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 A game without a refereeing f*** up would be nice. Have to win at that bloody stadium at some point. Mon the Arabs! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArabianKnight Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Knowing JMacs current trend for changing things up well probably end up playing a 5-2-2-1 or something! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

williemillersmoustache Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 No. It's not even on Celtic TV Balls, was looking forward to more seething, partisan commentary like last night. Bit of a disgrace that, but thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

captainkev Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Something to cheer everyone up after Sunday's final and before tonight's replay The feeling I've been left with after that article is that even if we somehow do get a result tonight all we'll end up doing is blowing it in the semi final against ICT or, potentially even worse, against Hibs in the final.

Redskythinking Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Something to cheer everyone up after Sunday's final and before tonight's replay Thanks for posting that. From the comments: 'It was the best of times and the worst of times, but after you had been dragged through it is a fan, you wouldn't have swapped it for anything else. This made you part of the club forever'. And it makes me so jealous for the incredible moments that older Arabs got to witness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
