ekok Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Lighten up CC, was just making a point that there are two deadline dates, think teams below Tier 4 are already playing against a stacked deck. Clearly this is not common knowledge, just another banana skin to avoid. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ekok Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 First up, hope the Broomhill lad that got a sore one is OK, two committed players making full on fair challenge. Pitch not great but under circumstances better than expected. Tactics, effort and style spot on. Not a pitch to take chances on and mostly we didn't. Good to see probably best use of channel balls and switch all season. Still playing possession, but mixing it up to excellent effect. Still one more point to make sure, roll on Wednesday at Strollers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oystercatcher Posted March 24 Share Posted March 24 I don't think they had a shot at goal after they equalised. Broomhill were as poor a side as ive seen all season. Didn't look interested 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't look interested Seemed to be a few regulars missing for Broomhill and then they lost a couple more during the game so maybe unfair to judge them on that one game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's fair, Broomhill were down to the bare bones and lost two players to injury during game, one early doors. I thought they stuck to their task, tho a couple did struggle. Their goal was a peach, worldy from 25 yards. As already said thought we mixed up our play very well and Broomhill stand in goalie did stop several more , we need to be more clinical. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ekok Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 OK here's how it happened. We have 6 registered Centre Backs. Three injured, two cup tied and one suspended. Stand in Dylan McDonald man of the match by a country mile,along with Lewis Spence best game for the team. Last time here we were overwhelmed and frankly bullied. Not today. Stood up and were counted. Silly sending off for John Robertson, the epitome of genius and quite frankly stupidity. As a squad I think today set an absolute marker, This group means business and has everything needed to get to L2. Today we grew up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he played with City I liked the fact he put himself about but there was a bit of combustibility as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was today marked a seismic change in self belief. All very well having great players, having a great team is another thing entirely. We went back to the place of our abject failure earlier in season, with far from a full squad and faced up to the challenge. Tranent are a very good team, difficult place to get a result. All very well having more than our share of good or better players, today was the day this team showed real character and a will to win. We made all the hard yards, closed down the spaces, made the tackles,won almost every header and second ball, never took a backward step. Still many challenges to face, truly believe today marked the day this team came of age and will deliver. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully you win the two playoffs and either Clyde or Stranraer drop into the Lowland League. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
