ebobsboy Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 1-1. With the reserve team cone carrier spouting the same pish post match about us dominating possession but omitting that we created f**k all and couldn't keep a clean sheet if our lives depended on it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 After Hall and Dixon making an arse of the Alloa equaliser last week I expect Brad McKay to start here so that means we’re going to need to score at least 2 goals to get anything from the game which I just can’t see happening. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
microdave Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 We haven't won since the victory in Grangemouth, mostly by being shite with a sprinkling of bad luck. 3-0 Falkirk. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bairn88 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 (edited) No more excuses for Sheerin. Feel like I’ve been relatively light on him, as without Williamson and Morrison we had 2 genuinely good attacking options down one wing replaced with possibly 2 of the worst in the league, in Miller and Mcdaid. Saturday that should no longer be the case. Anything other than a vastly improved attacking performance and a couple of goals, against a team that hasn’t won since we last played them, will be unacceptable for me.

The Moonster Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Another classic Scottish 3rd tier match where both sets of fans try to convince each other that their team is the worst. Hopefully it's not windy and we can see an actual football match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 I'd be a lot more confident if Morrison and Williamson are fit enough to start this one Martin Williamson Hall Dixon McCann Telfer Hetherington Morrison Nesbitt McGuffie Ruth Mutch, McKay, Krasniqi, Ross, McDaid, Ompreon, Keena Suddenly that starting line-up looks a lot better (even with Hall and Hetherington still stinking out the place) with better options on the bench as a result. We've still got to perform the basics though. The number of goals we've conceded this season from long balls up the park has been absolutely comical. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Falkirk haven’t been great this season but I’d be very surprised if they don’t beat us on Saturday. We’re on an absolutely horrid run of form and Faz tends to shite it against the better teams in the league and tries to sit deep which doesn’t suit us at all. We desperately need one of our strikers to hit a bit of scoring form. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Vojáček Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 Obviously this could be scuppered by our match preview, but I hope we don't make too many changes for this one. It's about time we started to establish a settled team and gave players a run of games. I wouldn't be shocked to see Faz stick with the same lineup as last week, but I'd been keen to make one change - dropping Andy Geggan for Eoghan Stokes. Geggan has, Airdrie game aside, been really disappointing since he came back. And his wild slide tackle attempt before Clyde's equaliser last week was ridiculous for a player of his experience at that stage in the game. We've got next to nothing out of Joe McKee as a #10 either, so drop him back into central midfield where he can have the game ahead of him and dictate things a wee bit more and we could be onto a winner. Stokes has looked good almost every time he's came off the bench and has a nice habit of being in the right place at the right time in the box. He's earned a start. Morrison could absolutely tear Boyle to shreds. But unfortunately he's the best option we have there. That gives me the fear. We might need Ross MacLean to do more of a wing-back role. Ramsbottom Pignatiello Carswell Buchanan Boyle Paton McKee Orsi Stokes MacLean Schiavone If Falkirk have issues defending long balls then I'd fancy big Ryan Schiavone to rough them up a bit. He really has looked a handful in recent weeks. We could just do with him finding a scoring touch. Kalvin Orsi was good wide last week so he can stay there. Carlo Pignatiello is our best option at right-back. His deliveries with Stokes lurking in the box could work out quite nicely. Personally I think we'll lose. But that's just because I'm full of pessimism. We are terrible at taking our chances and excellent at defensive howlers at the moment. Which is a bit of a dangerous mix. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolutely rancid in front of goal and always likely to find a way to ship in a goal no matter the circumstance. This is spot on. The last game against Dumbarton was a terrific example. We were't playing well but I remember thinking 'at least we'll take a 0-0 draw and tinker the attacking setup for next week, or maybe sneak a 1-0 win late on'. Then Dumbarton get a goal kick and 10 seconds later the ball's in the back of our net. Followed shortly after by Gary Miller Gary Millering a Sons' clearance out of defence and all of a sudden we're 2-0 down. I know we conceded a lot of second phase set pieces under M&M but the standard of goals we've been conceding has never been lower. Even when we were playing well earlier in the season we were still conceding these goals. It shouldn't be difficult considering a center back pairing of Mark Durnan and Gregor Buchanan only conceded 18 goals in 28 games in our first season down here. We're already almost at that total after 13 matches this campaign. To not be firing properly at either end of the pitch is hugely concerning. Hopefully Morrison and Williamson can help remedy 50% of that tomorrow 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
some_guy Posted November 12, 2021 Share Posted November 12, 2021 (edited) Looking forward to this one, fans should be able to sit in close enough proximity to the directors seats to uhm, 'politely discuss' what we think of them! Unfortunately I don't think many, if ahy actually (especially wage thief Holt) will be brave enough to show up with this in mind! 0-0 and Sheerin to have a semi in the post match interview when he says it 4 games unbeaten and once again we controlled the game and could have won it on another day. Falkirk fans to outnumber home fans, McKee and Hetherington having a competition to see who can stink the place out more, kinda like a fart off but with a football...
