Just thought you guys would be a bit more humble after losing to Cove Rangers , Cowdenbeath, then shipping 5 goals in 45 minutes up at Ross County failing to beat Montrose at home , ask the Arbroath fans what the score was when they played Ross County ,I’m pretty sure they’ll fancy their chances on Saturday.

They have every right to fancy their chances, just like we do. Did you go and google all of our recent misfortunes or is committing them to memory just another Saturday night in Methil?

I could be wrong but I don't think folk are entirely serious when they talk about us being huge. Even though we are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtie78 Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 In the Evening Telegraph DC says that Callum Smith will again miss out through injury, but Stevie Doris is ready to return to action. Wouldn’t imagine he’ll be risked, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1320Lichtie Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Well, considering he's right footed and been played at left back for most of his time with us... So he is a centre half aye? How would Thomson be 'nowhere near' your starting 11 for him then? Would you really play someone out of position instead of a natural RB? Thomson's been excellent going forward and back, wouldn't have Murray over him. I actually wouldn't want too many Raith players, obviously there's a lot of really good players at yourselves but I'm biased towards our guys and we have good players too. Only area of the park where you're definitely stronger than us is centre midfield and we still have some good players in there. Crane and Vaughan are cracking players too, wouldn't have your goalie, your centre halves, right back or wingers over ours if I had to make a choice.

Dazzle Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 [emoji23]Is Murray even a right back? Looked like a centre half playing out of position every time I've seen him He has been playing left back for us however with Crane coming in at left back I'm assuming he moves to right back like he did on Saturday, if that's the case he's a comfortably better player than Thomson and as such Thomson wouldn't get into our starting 11.

CALDERON Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Don’t think theres any pressure on us. Expectation and belief are different to pressure, and under Smith/Cuthbert we didn’t really have any. Difference being that for the first time in a good while we have a manager who the majority of the fanbase are completely behind. Even if we are getting beat or not playing well on Saturday, the South Stand will likely be as patient as its been in a good while. I reckon it will be a tough, close game on Saturday and wouldn’t be surprised if we drop points – but im pretty confident that even if we were to lose, Mclgynn is the man to make the full time advantage count over the course of the season.

Broken Algorithms Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 If we get Benedictus back to pre injury form then we've got the best centre back in this league by a country mile. Saturday was his best performance since McKinnon was our manager from him (Tbh, the same can be said for our whole squad). Throw in Kieran Wright who is a step up on our keepers last season, and Murray at right back who is very consistent I'm very happy with how our defence is shaping up at the moment. With the way McGlynn organises the team I'd hope that we'll stop losing the sloppy goals we conceded last season. Aside from Linn being in his form of his life, I'd not take a single player from the Arbroath squad. Worth noting it's still largely the same squad from last season which finished 16 points behind a weaker Raith team last season. Regardless, three quarters to be played and it'll all sort itself out over the course of the season. There's f**k all pressure on us at the moment. There's been a really good vibe considering how we were a fortnight ago... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we had being going to Starks with Smith or Cuthbert in charge there would have been a expectation of taking points from this game. With a new manager in and a big result last week Raith will be under big expectations of taking all 3 points. Even though we're top I think this will take the pressure off players a bit and we can go out and play some good football and hopefully get a result. Uh oh, it's reverse psychology time.

Hammerafc Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Not having Hutton in the goal is worth 16 points over a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
