Cannon Fodder Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Front 3 of Stewart, Harry and Hardie? Now there's a thought. It also means we can rest players like Robertson and Callachan that are long overdue a wee rest.. Not really, if we were going to go that rout then likelihood is we'd play 3 central players in midfield. Robertson and Callachan could both do with a time on the bench though. What does it say about McCord that he can't get a game ahead of those pair at the minute? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSDR 88 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Still no real update on who's playing centre half, might be the gaffer that's keeping it under wrap to bamboozle Livi haha. Regardless of the back line I do fancy us to win tomorrow. 2-1. Cuthbert Thomson Barr (if fit) Davo (if fit) McKeown McCord Robertson (sigh!) Connelly Craigen Longbridge Stewart Harry Doubt that young boy from Rangers will start but I think he'll feature at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 The excitement for this one is building. 13/5 for a Livi away win. Just saying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, we might win with that line up - given you've got 12 guys on the field Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paco Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Courier suggests Davidson will play, and that its between Barr and Robertson to fill the other CB spot. I can't make this game and I'm oddly gutted about it. Harry and Hardie hat-tricks. 7-6 Livi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scary Bear Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Christ, you'd have thought there'd be no question of it being Barr. Maybe he's decided that Robertson is finished as a midfielder and is trying to convert him to a centre back. Worked for Simmons that night at Pittodrie.

Paco Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Think the bigger worry is Barr limps off after 10 minutes never to be seen again. He'll only play if he's fit to do so, which is fair enough. Ellis hasn't even been mentioned as a possibility so it's fair to say him time as a player is up. Which was clear anyway but still...

Ding Dang Doo Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Wonder if Robertson can play in the centre of defence? That'd give us a far more attacking option down the right. Other than that it's pretty much bang on what I'd opt for too given the poor midfield displays of late. I was saying this as soon as I heard the news of the suspensions. We need Thomson at right back and Robertson is surely experienced enough to drop back into the centre and play alongside Davo. I think Barr will be on the bench as I can't see him lasting 90 mins in a competitive match after that long out. If Robertson does drop into defence then I'd expect Matthews and Callachan to play in the middle with Craigan, Connolly, Stewart and Harry up top like last week. McCord has let too many games go past him to be brought back in. Leaves a few options on the bench with Anderson, Longridge and Hardie to come on.

Michael W Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Is there any evidence whatsoever that Robertson would be able to play CB semi-competently? I want Thomson to play at RB as much as anyone does, but if that comes at the expense of having to put a player who won't cope at CB then it could backfire. We need to be very careful about what we're looking to do: Great RB/Shit CB v semi-competent CB/semi-competent RB etc. Either way, we are firefighting. Of course, Craig Barr might just play any way and save us worrying (except maybe that'll get injured again). And Robertson might be alright at CB. It's the mystery that keeps us all interested.

We got put in there last season and it was brilliant, would much rather be in there than the old main stand. Is it restricted viewing in there ?

CALDERON Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Very restricted. Railway end was used a few weeks ago for Rangers, no idea why the club arent using it every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Algorithms Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I'd imagine it's having to open up a whole stand with catering, stewards, police etc when we can put them in the corner of the main stand where that's all covered. Really do have to wonder how the cash flow is at the moment given the postponement we've seen this season. It's ridiculous we're still playing in winter.
