stumigoo Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 A little harsh on Briels, we do need a bit of depth in that area of the park at the moment (and especially if Flood's injury is a bad one). Personally I'd be surprised if we see much more of Toshney in a United shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBF, my point on Briels was more that he hadn't really set the heather alight before his injury, but he also hadn't done much wrong. He just seems a bit meh as a player. Happy to be proven wrong when he's back. Toshney can gtf though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m hoping that the new improved Willo Flood is not too badly injured. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah Briels isn't really someone to get excited about but for the system Laszlo looks like playing he would probably do quite well even if he is behind Flood, Fyvie (and potentially) Stanton in that role.

If Flood is out I.D not be surprised or disappointed to see Stanton dropped back and Keatings or McMullan getting a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Anyone think Quinn should/will keep the place ahead of Scobbie? Quinn did better than I expected but I think Scobbie offers leadership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Accent-Unknown Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Anyone think Quinn should/will keep the place ahead of Scobbie? Quinn did better than I expected but I think Scobbie offers leadership. Robson looked injured for the last half hour so I wouldn’t be surprised if Scobbie played left back next match.

I don't think Quinn did enough to keep his place ahead of Scobbie. I think he looked off the pace a bit and agree that Scobbie offers significantly more on the leadership front. As for Robson, I though the same for a bit A.U., but I think the issue was that when the rain came on his boots stopped working, and it took about 10 minutes for hin to get the message to the bench, and then another 5 to get him new ones. Hopefully he is OK and we'll keep the strongest back 4 we have going to Greenock. As for Murdoch, (as discussed above) he got into some great attacking positions at the back post yesterday (unfortunately lacked the composure to do much with them), and for me the jury is still out on him as a RB from a defensive POV, but agree that he is the best we have for now, and like many others, appears to have made progress already under the new manager.

invergowrie arab Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Two games in a row Murdoch has been stinking in attack despite finding himself in good positions. He is probably fine for the rest of the season but should we go up then he can't be near the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is probably fine for the rest of the season but should we go up then he can't be near the team. If he learned how to cross, he would be fine. Like you say, he does get in good positions but more often than not doesn't make the most of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's him playing for Ayr where he made 3 appearances last year. If you Google Jamie Thomas footballer (rather than Janie) his Wiki page will come up. Makes quite bland reading TBH, Def one for future rather than now if we take him on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FifeArab Posted December 4, 2017 Share Posted December 4, 2017 Was In the Evening Tele last week about that Jamie Thomas. It didn’t work out at Ayr for him with them being Part Time and him being full time or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
