jaggyness Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 A decent point today all things considered. Next week is huge irrespective of Airdrie's result during the week. Would bite your hand off now for a point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted April 6 Share Posted April 6 (edited) Been trying to find what the prize money differential between 3rd and 4th is for this year but it's not an easy google. Last year it was about £90k so that's a reasonable estimate, definitely worth hanging onto 3rd. Would be insanely optimistic to think we'll catch Raith now so them beating Airdrie in midweek is undoubtedly best for us. Think if we beat Airdrie in 2 weeks that would be enough to get 3rd. Is McBeth suspended for that game? Today was his 6th booking since he signed which is quite an impressive feat for someone who arrived in January. I know in England you have to collect a certain amount of bookings by the first half of the season then it's doubled but again the only SFA rulebook I can find dates from 2017-18 and says 6 at any point in the season is a 1 game suspension but I have something in my head saying that's changed. edit: Graham got 6 bookings in the league last season but didn't appear to miss any games because of them Edited April 6 by Fuctifano 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As we're in the second 18 games of the season, Luke would need to get 12 yellows to get a two match ban served from seven days later - this does include the playoffs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagsCG Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Very disappointing that Lawless is probably out for the season. He’s not been at his best in recent weeks but our complete lack of wide cover means it’s surely a huge concern heading into the final games & play-offs. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fuctifano Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Not signing a winger in January always looked a poor decision, the drop off to someone else playing out of position has been quite large (the livi cup game FFS) and also hasn't allowed us to rest or rotate Lawless and Fitzpatrick, our injury luck with those two being fit nearly all season has evidently run out but both have been poor of late which can't have been helped by playing every game. McInroy might be the least bad alternative at right wing if we want to keep the same shape, alternatively we can go 3-5-2 with one of Fitzpatrick and Robinson playing beside Graham and the other as a number 10, but can't see Doolan changing shape this late in the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nightmare Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 (edited) Terrible news for the remainder of the season. I'm guessing either a like for like swap with Zander Mackenzie (which is a big drop off from Lawless), or possibly shifting Fitzpatrick to the right side and playing Ngwenya as a LW. Because as @Fuctifano says above, not sure we'll change the shape at this point. Edited April 8 by Nightmare 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oneteaminglasgow Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 (edited) Aye that’s a sickener. We probably weren’t going to be going up anyway, but that basically kills it for me. Just need to consolidate third place, take the prize money and move on to next season. The only bright side is I guess that a run in the team will do Zander MacKenzie no harm (assuming that’s who we go with). Edit: he’s also fucked for the first half of next season, to add insult to injury. Edited April 8 by oneteaminglasgow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I Clavdivs Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 (edited) Club website has wee Stevie out till early 2025 due to ruptured achilles. Devasting for him (hope his op goes well this week and he gets back fit sooner than later)and the Club at this stage in the season. As has been said no like for like replacement so playoffs(if we make them ) pretty much now out of grasp unless Dools and Co have a cunning plan.

An injury that serious at his age could be career threatening. An absolute stinker of a situation both for Lawless and the team.

Assuming we make playoffs and Ayr don't , is there anything stopping us from using Dowds for remainder of season ?.If so the Diack backup plan for wee Stevie might work with a more direct line to goal mouth rather than skinning your man and crossing from touchline.....or am I just clutching at straws ?.

Yes. We're now outside the squad registration window and he's registered to Ayr until it opens after the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
