Skelly doesn't bring near as much to the squad as Matty did so hopefully Mutale can help Crack is a terrible drug.

Loon From Outta Toon Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 In all seriousness as stupid as this sounds Saturday is an absolute must win. I just can’t see us getting a win though, Bonnyrigg have improved this season & had our cards marked last season. So a change in fortune isn’t forthcoming I don’t think. Will Ray ditch the formation that worked so well in the league cup, but has failed miserable in the league? will we finally see a win? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted August 24, 2023 Share Posted August 24, 2023 The state of you all. You were going to win the league after such a successful league cup campaign and are now a collective, blubbering mess. The 3-4-3 was getting all the plaudits and the way forward for Uncle Ray and now it needs abandoned. The fickleness of the football fan knows no bounds. A real embarrassment considering you are only THREE games into the league campaign. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A real embarrassment considering you are only THREE games into the league campaign. The 3-4-3 still has merit (I personally like it). It's just so strange that immediately after the League Cup we stopped scoring and appeared to lose the fluidity we had. Yes Skelly got injured, but surely our good form wasn't entirely down to him. I'm not calling for Ray's head, nor do I think we'll have a season like last year. I admit I was on the league champions hype train, which may have been too premature but surely the Loons (or Athies as the club seem to prefer now) should be in the conversation for playoffs, and hopefully the title. However, we do need an uptick in form otherwise we could become draw specialists which would make the team part of the mid-table mediocrity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've just had more of an opinion about another club in the last 24 hours than you did about your own club in the past almost week. What does it say about the football fan when that occurs? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 The truth hits home as the tears stream down Loon. Enjoy your weekend. Enjoy your team playing football.

No attention should be paid to it, the league games - as McKinnon said in an interview - are totally different.

It's nothing more than glorified pre-season I am surprised at the naivety among your support. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bridie Vision Posted August 25, 2023 Share Posted August 25, 2023 According to The Courier, Ray McKinnon has finally said that he hopes to sign another striker to strengthen our depth up top. Any ideas on who he might target? Also, according to the website Skelly should be back (at least on the bench) for next week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit confusing when we've just signed a striker last week though, won't be bavidge because he's looking like he'll be in around Aberdeens first team. it's another full back, left winger or even centre mid we could do with now.
