George Parr Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 Does seem like one of the key themes of our tenure in League 1 over the past couple of seasons has been constant injuries and general unavailability of our better players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 It will be interesting to see how Wilson gets on in place of Langan. Langan absolutely deserved to be dropped, he's been anonymous since his return to the starting 11. Fully expecting a bit of a pumping given the team, I'd bite my own baws off for a point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 We're needing goals and that fanny Duffy still has Quitongo sitting on the bench. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if we lose today and Forfar win, I don't think it does. Tenth place equals automatic relegation but ninth results in a play-off situation. In any case, only the other day folk on here werre talking about needing only four more wins to be safe. That however is beginning to look like a mighty tall order. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

microdave Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 That's the first league goal we've scored without Joe McKee on the park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionel wickson Posted February 15, 2020 Share Posted February 15, 2020 The scoreline was hugely flattering to us. Montrose were in complete control after going ahead, so much so that I think our first shot on target was around the 89th minute. Montrose were fitter, faster and superior in every aspect of the game. Disappointing performance to say the least. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was actually McCluskey and Jones up top. They didn't look particularly dangerous at any stage. Hopefully Duffy starts with Jai and PJ up top together next week. They might not be a conventional strikforce but they were at least a wee bit threatening and exciting during their spell together today. That aside we were ropey all over the pitch. I think not playing out from the back is a massive issue for us. We spend a lot of the game under pressure, the defenders win it back, bypass the midfield and hoof it to out strikers...who don't win anything and the opposition are back on the front foot. In saying that it was scary how poor Carsy was today. I don't know if he's playing through injury or what, but he was so slack it was unreal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Montrose were fitter, faster and superior in every aspect of the game. Disappointing performance to say the least.Spot on there; fair summary. Was surprised to see BBC stats had us at only 51% possession. Felt we were in complete control but too often played one pass too many, or failed to connect with some good quality crosses.Many chances both halves to add to the tally, and thought it had more of a training game feel about it at times. The sort of game you wouldn't be surprised to grab a handful. Dumbarton hit the post first half but very little else from memory. The fact that your keeper got the assist for your goal (iirc) suggests we had maybe switched off at the very end, but decent finish.Would have had Masson as my motm rather than CJ, but it's another 3 points so while the clothes are still drying, I'm happy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club is struggling and the playing squad reflects that.Such is the current situation that I don't think it's completely fair to apply the critical norms to performances, personal or collective, as this season has been as much an exercise in fielding a team, never mind winning games.When you compare the set-ups at clubs like Montrose, Arbroath and Cove it merely highlights our slide into, well, who knows what ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
