Cardle is Magic Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 (edited) Seemed on Sat that a lot of the belief had been sucked out of the support and seems inevitable that 9th is the best we can manage this season. We’ve added Liam Polworth to the squad so you’d imagine he’ll come straight into the fold. Comrie should return at RB after suspension and O’Hara and Thomas must start. Doubt many people will give us a chance this weekend but we need some unexpected wins if we’re to avoid the bottom two. Arbroath have drawn all four games since beating Killie, stalling their title challenge a little.

Salvo Montalbano Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I'd take a loss here if it meant we got 3 points at Hamilton. Not just because that would be better than the 2 draws we'd probably get at best but also since it would get Arbroath back on track and if we can't win the league then I want the Lichties to do it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtie23 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Big improvement needed after a piss poor 2nd half performance tonight. Bobby must stay in the team IMO. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

afc_36_0 Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 Been harping on to push mckenna (our top scorer) further up so this is a great opportunity to do it. What dc will do it play donnelly (who hasn’t scored in the league for about 2 years) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What dc will do it play donnelly (who hasn’t scored in the league for about 2 years) Agree with this and as said, more than likely that Donnelly will start the game. Maybe it's time to give Ford more time on the pitch to show what he can do, rather than a few minutes near the end of a game. But whatever the team selection we need to get back to playing as well as we can do for 90 minutes and winning games.

Chubbychops Posted March 2, 2022 Share Posted March 2, 2022 (edited) Pars lost 1 in 6 games. Certainly hard to beat but we need wins. Dorrans can't play AM. Either Polworth given a go in there or put O'Hara up top feeding off McCann. Like last week, this fixture would normally look like a decent point but we desperately need three.

Lichtielegend Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 If he doesn't push McKenna up on Saturday, he never will. I'm one of Donnelly's biggest cheerleaders and I think there is a player in there but that's 3 years he's been at the club and we've still not found a way to make him effective. Jack Hamilton is winning loads of aerial battles and we're not picking up the 2nd balls (something we were really good at earlier in the season) and I think McKenna up with him would help. We've got loads of players that can play alongside Chris Hamilton too. Even in the absence of Nicky Low, we've seen Craigen, Gold and Henderson all play well in that position this season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokerson Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Yeah, get Gold in and stick McKenna up one. We will miss Wighton, his assist the other night was quality and think he was slowly coming onto a game. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timlichtie Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Yeah, get Gold in and stick McKenna up one. We will miss Wighton, his assist the other night was quality and think he was slowly coming onto a game. Wighton constantly tries to do the unexpected. Lay offs, flicks etc. It really helps to break defences down. It doesn’t always come off for him but when it does it gives us an edge. I thought he really chased and tackled back on Tuesday which is something he hasn’t always been known for.Agree that McKenna’s the man to play off Jack Hamilton but LD is likely to start. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaboz Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 I'm optimistic again that we could win this. McCann needs much better service and support though if he remains up top alone. Kamwa apparently not fully fit with a knock, pity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chicken Wing Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 I'm heading up to this. Love Arbroath away. Will probably remember very little about the game, boo some bugger, have a steak and black pudding pie then retire to Tuttie's about an hour in. Cannot wait! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gayf78 Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Presuming Low and Thomson are both out, my team would be GastonStewart/Gold Little TOB HammyStewart/Gold Hamilton Henderson Linn Mckenna HamiltonDon’t really mind which one of gold or Stewart plays right back or right midfield, they can both put a shift in. This absolutely won’t be the team tho, Dick will find some way to start Donnelly and will also drop Linn, more than likely for Craigen which is baffling considering his recent performances. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SotesBornalichtie Posted March 4, 2022 Share Posted March 4, 2022 I'd prefer Gold at right back and Stewart in his usual midfield position where he can run at defences. Also would like to see McKenna alongside Hamilton up front. Hoping for a win, but after a slow start Dunfermline are improving under John Hughes. If the players are rested and recovered from Tuesday night we are well capable of taking 3 points and staying top of the table. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
