I just watched the highlights and I’m finding some of the comments on twitter and elsewhere around Brown making a mistake bringing the keeper in to start incredibly strange - he seems to have done nothing wrong while pulling off a couple of decent saves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting dropped for a 19 year old loanee the morning of a game, when the defence is makeshift, and there's a game on Tuesday which you can play him, is still a big ooft. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Anyway, really need to be doing the business next month because don't want to be going into April needing to get something out of those fixtures. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was actually quite impressed with his composure as well. Think on one occasion he played a shite pass to Syla who struggled to control it and then gave it away which resulted in a free kick and booking for Dempsey but all in all he seemed okay. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye. Most of The gripes I’ve read about him are about him not shouting enough. He’s 19 and got drafted in today to take the place of the established goalie. Maybe nerves got the better of him in that department. But he was otherwise pretty good. He looked confident enough to take the ball and make the smart pass as opposed to just hoofing it. It was Sanders in front of him that was the bombscare. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't blame the keeper, I blame the decision to play him in a game where we had a makeshift defence and he'd played one senior game before. Tomlinson last week and Clarke this week have been errors we could have been avoided. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't really remember Ross Doohan shouting and he's probably our best goalie in recent times. Sinisalo was pretty good as well, wasn't much of a shouter either tbh. Edit - I should add that I'm a big fan of Albinson and haven't seen the highlights from today. Edited February 24 by Trogdor 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that brown should’ve played albinson. f**k knows why he did it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayrunitedfw Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 If you want an indication of how wrong we got our recruitment in the summer and January you just have to look at Raiths bench from today. At least 5 of them would walk into our starting 11. Euan Murray who was injured would also do the same. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This season has been about survival since September.... My only concern going forward is Marthie/gold-digga overpowering broony and us ending up with.more utter dross based on some sort of football A.I. algorithm only known to aufc..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given Albinson chucked two in on his last appearance and the keeper did nothing wrong, I’m not sure how it was an error though? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 How was the home attendance yesterday? Away attendances have had a decent bump since Brown has come in. I'm hoping home attendances will start picking back up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott-ish Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 In my opinion the whole Albinson problem stems from being dropped by Bullen for having a poor run of form. He's a goalie in the Scottish championship, he's going to make mistakes. Benching him just destroyed his confidence, he should have stuck by him through it. We now seem to have lost a guy who was arguably the best keeper in the league last season due to insane decision making by Bullen. Unreal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The keeper never shouted once during the first two goals. You need a keeper to keep the defence in order. There is every chance he didn't know their names 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the forgetting the game before at tannadice when he flapped his wings instead of knocking the ball away, and cost us the game. Makes some cracking saves over the other 80 minutes though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is every chance he didn't know their names I don’t really see what he needs to shout at the goals in the split second as the cross is coming in that would be of value and make any difference to the outcome tbh. Feels very much like trying to find errors that aren’t really there. Charlie chucked two in last game, but the new guy shouldn’t have played because he didn’t shout twice… It really depends on the keeper, if you have an experienced once then they will organise the defence more - particularly if they are younger. We had three experienced guys in defence, including our club captain. I would be expecting them to organise themselves. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utter oxygen thiefs. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
