Hazbart Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Let’s not hit the panic button just yet. This league is wide open, the inconsistency is affecting every team. The fact we have lost 3 on the bounce yet still sit in 2nd place and 3 points behind the big spending league leaders says it all. Time will tell if Kerr was a wise appointment but right now we’re not in a bad place. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ayrmad Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 I'd find it weird if quite a few weren't moaning after 3 defeats in a row, I'd also hope the players are breaking their necks on Tuesday to avoid it becoming 4 in a row. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lochwood Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Once again not taking chances and gifting chances to the opposition can only mean one thing. Up to Dundee scored they looked very ordinary the goal gave them confidence and after that they really dug in, second goal was horrendous defending and not just the back four. Young Kelly really needs experience beside him particularly Kerr. Was a bit disappointed we went route one most of the second half and never really troubled them and young McCowan needs to be staying back after training on his right foot if he is gonna be a good player put the work in son you really have a wand of a left foot. Think we have the right management team just need that bit of luck we had early doors hope it starts on Tuesday. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D'Jaffo Posted October 26, 2019 Author Share Posted October 26, 2019 I hope we get Adams on the park for one more home game before he retires. If indeed that’s what’s happening. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Adams has played far more games than we could reasonably have hoped for when he first signed. Has more than earned cult hero status. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the whole, I think he's been treated shockingly to be honest and by all accounts he's still popular within the club and the toys are firmly still in the pram, to his massive credit to be honest. It's upto us to get the best out of him, you don't score those number of goals in your career without having something to offer. If he'd had Moffat or Forrests chances on Friday night, I'd be more hopeful of them being finished off. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he has played he missed chances, is caught outside constantly and doesn’t do anything other than have an excellent first touch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iain Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Strikers all around the world and right back through history generally need a run of games to show their best football. Doolan hasn’t had that here. I suspect he won’t get it either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has scored against 9 man Thistle and Berwick Rangers. He scored a whopping 6 goals in this league last season. He looks about half a yard of the pace meaning that he cant actually get into the positions of Moffat or Forrest. Doolan is in no way the answer. We have an out and out striker in Craig Moore who can actually run! I have been to every game this season and Saturday was the first time he has only be brought on for 5 minutes. He has pretty much been on for 15/20 mins and every time we have looked worse. He only has himself to blame and he has been treated professionally by the club. Any suggestion otherwise is drivel.

When he has played he missed chances, is caught outside constantly and doesn’t do anything other than have an excellent first touch. I think he deserves far more minutes in games than he's been getting, for the last few weeks we're looking jaded and in need of a plan b or c and there's been talk on here of him becoming a target for the boo boys when he has had an appearance (I don't know I wasn't there). Recent games now we've created clearcut chances and not taken them. All things considered I consider him to be treated shockingly. At his stage if his career, he needs to be playing more often to keep himself match ready. Just because he came in and Shankland left, I suppose people are thinking he was a like for like replacement, he isn't. He's more similar to Moffat for me, and even he's dropping out of recent games. You may disagree but I still believe he's worthy of a few starts. If we can get Moffat, Forrest and McCowan in and around him feeding off him then I think we'll offer teams a different threat. 4231 for me would be a way to go. And if he's in the penalty box then I still think he'll convert the chances we're creating. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trogdor Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 (edited) Also, I'm not sure if its because of injuries so we can't suggest changing any other part of the team? However, the front line does not need changing. The defense and midfield does we just don't have the players to play 433 because of injuries.

I should have been clearer, I do agree with you partially. In that injuries have forced us to change our formation. Its either 442 or more aggressive 4231 you suggested. However, in either scemario it is Moore ahead of Doolan for me. ETA - If we get an injury at centre half maybe we can try Doolan there. I remember Roberts tried playing an aging striker at centre half. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
