DAFC. Posted December 16, 2019 Share Posted December 16, 2019 Someone had to start it. I genuinely can't think of an occasion, bar one, where we've picked up more than 3 points away to Inverness. Can someone correct me? Tough game again for us. I'd be delighted with a draw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meant to say more than one game where we have picked up the full 3 points. I remembered another game, actually, back in 2000 when we got promoted. Genuinely can't think of any other apart from that and another in season 06-07. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We once pumped them so badly they gave us 20 points. Hopefully it happens again to reignite our fading title dream. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted December 16, 2019 Author Share Posted December 16, 2019 Two seasons ago 5-1 and then 1-0 both at East End Park was the most recent and that's the only league season where there hasn't been a draw. Here's that game you mentioned Meant at your own turf, my man. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaboz Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Would gladly take a draw also, our away form is utterly stinking.Surely if Edwards, Murray or Lang are available (unlikely) then Devine gets punted.I'd also get Paton back in the midfield, the defence appeared (highlights only) to have no cover from midfield. Maybe Thomson starts too with Turner shifted onto the left where sadly he's hopeless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted December 17, 2019 Author Share Posted December 17, 2019 Haven't heard anything on Lang or Murray, so I'm going to assume we won't hear anything until after the new year. We've had no luck with them two this season. Murray looked like one of our best players before he got injured too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallumPar Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 McDonald or McCann in for Kiltie is surely the logical choice.Paton in for Cochrane and maybe Thomson for Turner, are both possible changes I’d like to see. If Edwards is fit, I’d put him back in and move Martin back to CB. Going to assume Murray and Lang are both unavailable. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Please not McCann. He's a raw striker being punted out wide in a role where he's utterly useless (not his fault). The games where he's played there I believe we've stunk the joint out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our away form is very middle of the road for this league tbh. Alloa, Morton, Queens and Arbroath all have worse records and Dundee & Partick Thistle's are only marginally better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted December 17, 2019 Author Share Posted December 17, 2019 Good to see we've somewhat addressed our abysmal home form from last season, but our away form is what's letting us down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has been injured, has just made it on the bench the last couple of weeks, would imagine this weekend will be the first time he'll feature. Seconded to no McCann out wide, he's a striker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallumPar Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Agree on McCann not playing out wide. Something I’ve complained about. I was just meaning the change in terms of personnel. Since McDonald hasn’t played in months, I’m not sure he’s ready to start and I’d be happy to see us go back to 2 up front, with McCann beside Nisbet, with Dow in behind as a 4-3-1-2 type system. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that works better for him than starting centrally and moving wider.I’d also worry that it would leave our fullbacks exposed, especially if Edwards plays.If starting McDonald is too much of a risk then I’d prefer thomson to cover the wing especially defensively. He did a job out there last season at times and neither McCann or turner have looked great on the wing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smpar Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 One of my favourite things about this fixture is that two consecutive games - albeit at EEP - finished in a 5-1 win for each side. That surely doesn’t happen very often.Since that has f**k all to do with today, I’d take a 1-1 draw but I can see Caley Thistle sneaking it, 2-1. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
