HoustonRover Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 I think Arbroath lack a bit of mobility at the back? Hopefully our movement can drag them about a bit. First goal is key. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALDERON Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 No Matthews or Gullan, that's annoying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael W Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 (edited) Gullan out is a blow. Lots of attacking options on the bench, but none of them are very good. Just noticed no Matthews either.

You'd have to assume that's a return to the use of out-and-out wingers that had grown a little stale. Will Dick Campbell have planned for the diamond? Will Vaughan's influence in the middle make all the difference? I'd be much more comfortable with Matthews in there too. Hopefully we can get an early goal and keep the expansive football going to make the most of Tait's abilities. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully we can get an early goal and keep the expansive football going to make the most of Tait's abilities. We really needed either Musinda or MacDonald and we have both. Gullan has been very good lately but he goes off the boil sometimes so I'm not too disappointed, but maybe him being out leaves us a wee bit lightweight up front. However McGlynn I'm glad has gone for speed and trickery to exploit their lumbering defence. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

San Starko Rover Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Mon the Lichties win. Or draw I guess, but preferably the former.Surely a mighty city team like Dundee don’t need to hope for favours from other teams to best a diddy outfit like Raith Rovers [emoji12] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TxRover Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 2 minutes ago, San Starko Rover said: How long is Mathews out for? Matthews has been used sparingly with what is supposed to be a tender Achilles and/or an unspecified leg issue. Generally seems he’s slowly getting better, but seems unlikely to play back to back matches. 10 minutes ago, Michael W said: Gullan out is a blow.

Gullan was reported as a calf issue, so might be another couple of weeks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is our main problem tbh. We have a few injuries like and the Linn one is a huge blow but we have a solid squad of players but not enough dangerous players in attacking areas.

Nice of you to agree that some of the refereeing is shite tho. The fact remains that too many games are decided by shite refereeing, and as I said that could well affect the outcome in the run in. Well it sounds like it to me - “... the shite refereeing WE usually get”. There have been other comments on this thread to the effect that Raith’s poor disciplinary record is down to the officiating. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
