Interesting to see how the group will play out now.. Three teams will get nine points and Falkirk will come top 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

muZZa__44 Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 (edited) score a shit ton in our next two games and maybe hope Stenny do is a favour and not lose to Falkirk Edited July 20 by muZZa__44 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelson Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Postives: Watret, Rus and some good passages of play, Dempsey looks much improved Negatives: Rotten set pieces, not much cutting edge from Dowds/Oakley, no pace or balance down the left hand side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nelson Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Bryden is just a Bullen hangover, a time when talk was more important than substance. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was the same at the end of last season, but we decided that was McGinty’s fault. First defeat of the season and the McGinty nostalgia is out already. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're still about 2 or 3 bodies short as our subs made very little difference. In an ideal world we get another midfielder and a striker who can offer something a bit different. Not sure what kind of quality we’ll get when anyone signing won’t just walk into the side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 I don't like Oakley and Dowds spending so much time in pockets of space outside the box. Doesn't seem to be using them to their best effect. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need a new striker to start if we want to be challenging, dowds and Oakley too similar 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
placidcasual Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Thought we deserved a draw. Some really good performances, especially Rus and Watret. Good to see us playing football as opposed to the terrorball we've been subjected to for the last 3 or 4 years from Hopkin, Duffy and Bullen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not that we really have any one else that could fill in to another position. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baba douche Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 I can see that Rus being sent off - he was worth a couple of bookings today. Good player tho, so worth it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't seem to be using them to their best effect. Dowds less so than Oakley. I think Dowds is ok at dropping in but Oakley needs to be pushing into the back line and making a pain of himself. I’ve got no issues from today. Dundee United are still a better side than us and have gotten more minutes since they lost to Falkirk. As long as we go and pump Stenny and Buckie then we’ll be in the mix to go through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itzdrk Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Hopefully some lessons learned with how much a mess the defence was throughout that. I hope Devlin and Musonda are fit for at least the Buckie game to develop some kind of understanding before the league starts. They need to work hard on set pieces, we look suspect defending them and we have no idea how our shape works attacking them because we are either kicking them out of play or beyond everyone. Arguably the one that went out of play was the best because we weren't countered. Marco Rus though, whit a boy! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shibuya Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Despite our squad being improved I suppose we need to remember that we were playing a team who comfortably beat us four times last season and have also improved their squad further. Lots to be pleased about and I actually thought we did well in midfield after we conceded the opener. You can see we will be a better side when Murphy comes in as McKenzie is not a natural left winger and, despite playing well, doesn't give you any real width. I think we are 1 or 2 bodies away from a right good team. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
diegomarahenry Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Premier Sports gave MoTM to a player who touched the ball 3 times. we played well, Dowds has became a focus for our attack and it doesn’t suit him, we need more players on the front foot to allow Dowds to float in to space. We need a different option up front for days like today. The front 4 were pretty average and Rus was a standout again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was it not him that missed the open net with his first touch too… Belter of a free kick obviously. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought the best players on the park were one of Dempsey, Rus or Watret for us or Ferry or Babunski for them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
