Brazilianlex Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Time for Bollan to go I just don’t see any progression. Recruitment during the shutdown has been poor. I have no idea what today’s tactics were meant to be. We are in trouble ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea what today’s tactics were meant to be. We are in trouble !It’s certain our form is bad enough to worry. All it needs is Brechin to get a couple of results and we’re dragged right in to the dreaded playoff scenario again. I hate to be the harbinger of doom but it’s reality nowadays, with clubs in the pyramid getting backed up with hard cash we are going to struggle to keep our place in the league short/middle term. Whether these clubs can maintain the cash flow is irrelevant to us. One thing is for sure there is no normal nowadays. The lower echelons of Scottish football has changed whether you like it or not. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iateallthepies Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 It was perfectly reasonable of the manager to start with the same eleven that played quite well in the second half against Edinburgh, but I knew we were going to lose after about five minutes. Listless laboured no spark at all. This is largely the same squad that had us in fourth place before lockdown. Think sailor Cowden has hit the nail on the head. The same level of effort and intensity just isn't there. With Brechin and Rovers to play twice each we need to get our act together. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brechin are creating chances, so it's just a matter of time before they score a few and win some games. We create literally nothing. I wish we would try something different up front. We would have more chance of scoring if we switched Renton with Swann. Renton is a better defender and Swann far more likely to score. Anything would be better than plodding along the way we are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aberdeen Cowden Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 Two players that made all the difference. Cox and Mullen. We have no RB and Harvey isn’t a LB. And no one could put the ball in the net even if it was on the goal line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only coo in the village Posted April 3, 2021 Share Posted April 3, 2021 (edited) Very disheartening to watch that today. I’d thought that Cowden would apply at least the same level of application and desire they showed in the second half against Edinburgh City but sadly and frustrating that just wasn’t the case. That was one of the poorest Cowden teams I’ve seen in a long time and that really is saying something. Apart from Swan I saw very little quality throughout the team. Obviously we are limited in resources but you’d at least expect the players to be super motivated for such a crucial game. The constant use of the long throw which clearly wasn’t working showed that we were desperately hoping for a break of the ball instead of trying to create chances. Albion comfortably saw out the game and we only created one good chance which their keeper saved well. Our fate is very much in our own hands so hopefully we can dig out a few good results from somewhere. It’s a punishing schedule of games for all of the teams so a few upsets should be on the cards. Let’s just hope it’s not Brechin creating them. Edited April 3, 2021 by Only coo in the village 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weather the next couple of days might help by scuppering a few games! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Minertaur Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 I have just got the worst feeling possible about how the rest of the season is going to pan out. We've 5 matches before the split: Stenny (a) Elgin (H) Albion (a) Stirling (H) Brechin (a) Where do we see us picking up points? Clearly tomorrow's match against Stenhousemuir is massive as they are the only team with nothing to play for. To me it's a must win as Brechin will probably pick up some points before the split. Does anybody see us scoring goals? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
onecowden Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Four positives from last night. Albion Rovers didn’t win, Brechin City didn’t win, Annan Athletic didn’t win and we don’t have to play Queens Park again. Negatives, well too many to list. We just have to keep going. It’s a tough gig being a Cowden fan. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PELE Posted April 7, 2021 Share Posted April 7, 2021 Tomorrow night's game is a must win. We need to create a bigger gap between us and Brechin. If we don't win we will be in deep trouble. This is the time to make sure. While Stenny still have faint hopes of the play-offs, their season is basically petering out. We need to go on the attack. Get three up front instead of Renton on his own. We need to score. I bet Brechin would love to be in our position, with the chance of jumping over Annan and Albion and moving 7 points clear from the bottom team. It's in our hands, so lets go out and make sure. We have good enough players to win. Come on Cowden! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment it’s like a waiting game to see who will win a game first, Brechin or Cowden. Big boost for whoever it is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think whoever does will avoid the dreaded play off spot. That's why we need to go all out for a win tomorrow. A win tomorrow will be a massively important result. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue brazil Posted April 8, 2021 Share Posted April 8, 2021 Hi guys, newbie to this forum. Tonight is massive, our game in hand. A point would be just about acceptable, but 3 points could define our season. I don't want to watch the last 4 games hoping that Brechin lose to save our league status, I'd much rather we took the initiative and made whatever Brechin do irrelevant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
