Poet of the Macabre Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 We have a terrible record in away play-off legs. Thank God we're not involved this time. Look at this hall of shame: L 3-1 @ Forfar L 3-0 @ Alloa L 2-1 @ Stranraer D 1-1 @ Cowdenbeath Yuck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
San Starko Rover Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Brechin got any kind of live TV or Radio covering the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm predicting the cherry on the top this week, 6-0 to Brechin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caskie Rover Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Would expect Yogi to freshen it up a little tomorrow, fancy Skacel, Stewart & even Bobby to get a start, 0-2 first away win in 200 days ???????? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheevedawg Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 My line up for tomorrow: Brennan C.Barr - M'Voto - Bene Thompson - Matthews - Davo - B.Barr/McHattie Handling Court - McManus/Hardie It'll never happen though. I can live in hope... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSDR 88 Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Heading up for this, haven't been to Brechin's ground in about 20 year (when I was a wee laddy). Considering how shocking we've been away from home, got to fancy our chances of winning this tomorrow night (jeezo, what I've done...!). Brennan doesn't fill me with confidence at all in goal but for 89mins against Ayr, he played decent enough, hopefully much the same. I'd opt for an XI like this, bit of a 433/442 diamond/4-something-something with Mark Stewart running around mental winning the ball back everywhere, but I think Skacel & McManus will feature in there somewhere.

R.R.FC Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 Not something I thought I'd say this season but I would actually start McManus again. Don't think he did anything to deserve being dropped, worked hard and had a good game on Saturday. More of the same for the rest of the season would be ideal. He's also back playing against League 1 teams who he has proven very effective against in the past. Seems crazy to have someone like Hardie on the bench but I wouldn't change too much from Saturday.

McManus has been actually picking up a bit of confidence. His work ethic is something anyone could ever question. The problem is that he drops far too deep, especially when we persist with Skacel. A case in point is the Hibs game where he played out and out as a forward and has his best performance in a Rovers shirt. With Matthews back, we're far better at winning the ball back in midfield, meaning he's more likely to be up the park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shandon Par Posted May 9, 2017 Share Posted May 9, 2017 This handsome devil scored his first hattrick to wrap up the title for us against Brechin last season. Shame there are not more part timers in the Championship because if there's one thing we're good at is pumping part timers. Mixed feelings for this. It would be funny to see Raith sent down but the Pars board will want the Kirkcaldy pound through the turnstiles again next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
