afca32 Posted November 3, 2017 Share Posted November 3, 2017 Should be a good crowd and hopefully game. We're in good form and a win would be delightful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueone Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Elgin have been poor against us so far with two 3-0 wins for us. Would expect a much harder game this time out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue-Toon Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Not much harder. 2-0 this time thanks to a Rory double. Good crowd and a decent game but not a classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thom & Gerry Posted November 4, 2017 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Not much in it. Second goal killed it. Schoolboy defending for first but great finish, just luck for second. McAllister was the difference. Where would Peterhead be without him? A mid table team like us I would suggest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Am Muilleach Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Abject display from the referee - but make no mistake that didn't change the result. Very poor from Elgin apart from 20 minutes or so at the start of the second half. Individual errors for both goals. Disappointing as it's the same players who keep doing it.. ..and with zero shots on target you aren't going to win games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom & Gerry Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Same players who keep doing it but I'm afraid there are no other options. Peterhead are the best team in the League but without McAlister they would be at our level. If we had him we would be at the top end. They have what we are missing, a big goal scorer who the other players can also play off of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just lucky the ref didn't end up allowing someone to get seriously hurt due to his incompetence and fear to offend the home support on the covered terrace. Elgin are not the worst I have seen in this division this season but like Clyde are susceptible to fold like a house of cards when they lose the ascendancy that coupled to the most winging, play-acting and non-scoring No9 find it hard to believe they got their Gaffer Manager Of The Month. Peterhead seem to be transformed into a team with guts and determination and drive compared to the Flaky Billy Big Times of earlier in the season, their biggest weak point is an at times suspect defence, but when you're getting clean sheets with a suspect defence then things are going the correct way. Gibson, MacCallister, Ferry, Riley, J Brown and Fleming should be a spine with creativity that could well see them challenge, Stirling, Steeny and Montrose.

Chris McLeish does take a hell of a battering in every game, and I think yesterday was the first time I've seen him go down easily - but only on a couple of occasions. Peterhead seem much better coached on that aspect of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom & Gerry Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Need to get off your blue tinted specs there mate. I think your delusional if you think your team are any great shakes without No 9. Some good players on paper but from what I have seen this season they ain't producing. If McAlister stays fit and interested you will win league as there are no outstanding teams but should be a lot better with resources at your disposal.

NewBlue Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Gibson, MacCallister, Ferry, Riley, J Brown and Fleming should be a spine with creativity that could well see them challenge, Stirling, Steeny and Montrose. Jordan Brown is hopeless, apart from chipping in with a goal or two he contributes nothing, especially defensively. Unless you mean Jason Brown who is decent. Riley and Ferry can both be hit and miss, but agree that McAllister, Fleming and Gibson should be the difference for us if we achieve anything this season.

afca32 Posted November 5, 2017 Author Share Posted November 5, 2017 We were crap. Didn't understand the team selection with Dodd at right back and no real right winger. Strapp is a great wee player and I don't know what we'll do when he goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thom & Gerry Posted November 5, 2017 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Cooper and Bronsky are injured so Dodd being a wing back was obvious fill in there imo. Thought he did in the main ok. In the long term may have a future there as opposed to a winger where he is clearly not good enough for a team hoping to be at the top end of this league.
