Iain Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Eight quick points should've made a big difference. Not sure it looks as good as it feels. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hursty Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Oh well - decent enough point today but other results didn't go the way we would want. Alloa away next- thats an absolute must win, no excuses. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play a couple of youngsters and rest our important players or play a full strength team and hope a good win gives them more confidence.

rb123! Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) IMHO, that game today under Kerr would have petered out into a pitiful 1 or even 2-0 defeat by us getting inevitably done on the counter looking for an equaliser. Yes it wasn't pretty for a lot of the time but at the end of the day, we stuck in, did our jobs and came away with a crucial point which has meant we've managed to close the gap to the top 4 down to 5 points. As Dave Smith said after Hopkin was appointed, it's not all about how we play the game, it's how we pick up points. So far that's what Hopkin is achieving That's us played 5 games since Kerr got sacked and we've W:2 D:2 L:1, 8 points from 15 ain't bad for a team which was in freefall having won 1 in 10 of Kerr's last games. Keep the faith and believe in what Hopkin is doing. *There's 5 cup finals left and although it probably doesn't feel as crucial since we can't be there all 5 are masssive!

Trogdor Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Alloa game is massive. Elgin game is meh. It's time for significant rotation. Let the bench warmers start a game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got to make sure we put out a team who can win this game, a lot of money at stake in the cup competition , also think team needs a bit of consistency Edited March 20, 2021 by Robbo63 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Problemo Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Don’t care about the Elgin game whatsoever. No crowds confirm that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BukyOHare Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 Did anybody else notice two or three people up near the corner flag at the Railway end peering over the wall? Why do people still insist in flouting the rules? We'd all love to be at the game guys but seriously just stay in the house. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't care less about the cup this year. However i'm sure Smith and directors will see it as important as ever from the financial aspect with prize money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dens LOOKS bad ant it IS bad in places, however it's a quick pitch and the ball runs on it unlike Somerset which actually looks not too bad but it's so uneven and slow that passing a ball on it is simply impossible. Sorting the pitch has to be one of the main priorities for me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno what's happened to the pitch but it's certainly not level. Edited March 20, 2021 by Trogdor 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even with 6/7 changes we should be beating Elgin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d guess McKenzie will be allowed a rest , perhaps Smith and Murdoch as well . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Play a couple of youngsters and rest our important players or play a full strength team and hope a good win gives them more confidence. Win v Elgin then it's a home game v Clyde or Keith. Entirely winnable and then a good chance of a "big team" in the next round that might get picked up for TV. Definitely worth playing to win v Elgin Edited March 20, 2021 by Thereisalight.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
