Jilted John Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 Tomorrow’s lineup will be interesting. Can we play with Baird and Maclean up top? Will Bowie be buzzing after his big move or will he be rested after what must have been a hectic week for him? I’d like to see Maclean and Bowie from the start but think it would be harsh on Baird who’s come onto a game these last few weeks. I’d actually put Baird in for Dingwall in the attacking midfield role. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hank Scorpio Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I’d be really surprised if we throw McLean in from the start. Would imagine he’ll come off the bench for the last 20. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WSDR 88 Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 I’d chuck MacLean in from the start, give him an hour, and then Baird in for the winner... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't think MacLean will have us out of sight by then? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With effectively no practice time with the team, starting would be reckless. However, for a player that experienced, he would probably easily be able to slide into the team at 60-75 minutes and work effectively. Even then, the passing and anticipation would not be there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry,you really think hes going to say to McGlynn? ”gaffer if your thinking of giving me any game time could you wait till 2 or 3 minutes from the end so as to give me time to watch the team and work out the playing style” I think not He,s a 37 year old highly experienced footballer so dont think it would take much time to figure out how other players play whilst on the pitch.Too much blackboard fitba 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s surely done his research on us and knows that our current team is showing some life in goal scoring, and won’t be in any rush to barge in and disrupt any chemistry. Because he’s the wily veteran, he won’t expect to play first thing, but will understand that working in practice will greatly enhance his worth to the team. As I’ve already suggested, if he was on five yellows, I’d expect him to draw a yellow quickly before a game versus someone like Stranraer, to clear the boards. With only four yellows now, that’s out of play, so there’s less need for him to debut tomorrow. Now, where did I put that chalk? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raithie Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 It’s tradition that our loan players start on the bench. He’ll get a run out for the last 20 minutes or so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You lot have a nice journey and have a nice day in Airdrie and if our Manager stops pissing around and plays our best team and system should be a good game and hoping for goals and a 3 2 win for the diamonds... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CapitalDiamond Posted January 31, 2020 Share Posted January 31, 2020 The buzz that was around Airdrie before the visit to Starks has died off and we need to win tomorrow if we want to be properly in the mix for the title race.Not confident but fingers crossed we can put a performance together and steal a win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the official is highly fond of yellows, I’m predicting about 5 or 6, evenly spread. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
