Jordi1977 Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 1 hour ago, Casey Jones said: It’s your team, so you will know more than me. But, he was in charge of team with beat HoB 3-1. Can’t remember reason why Pittman left last time? Was it to go to a better/different team, or was he sacked? There was maybe a case to be made to keep McNaughton on for the rest of the season to limp through it... but in honesty it was probably right to let him go as he was part of the management team that saw the team on a pretty poor run of form. He was in charge for the defeat at Blackburn where the 2nd half performance was awful. He was helped out by his dad for the win over HoB... yes the 2nd half was impressive in that one, but I suspect the appointment of Pitman had already been made by then (he was at the game). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blowin In the Wind Posted February 4, 2023 Author Share Posted February 4, 2023 Tough trip down to deepest darkest Ayrshire today to face a top side. Good luck to the Brox . Think we might need it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordi1977 Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 I wasn't able to make it down to Ayrshire due to a few things going on... Sounds like it was a decent first half effort followed by a 2nd half battering. Anything from today's performance to give some optimism with 3 very winnable games coming up next? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albynpark Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 I think we had just 1 shot, off target. Just had this game at the wrong time and where outclassed. I'm sure the worst is behind us now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albynpark Posted February 5, 2023 Share Posted February 5, 2023 I thinking that was our heaviest defeat? Since 1947 anyway. I'm struggling to think of getting beat by more. I think our biggest win was 11-0 vs Spartans but there is probably a bigger one 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jordi1977 Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 First home game for the new Management team... and a new signing going straight into the matchday squad! Almost feeling optimistic for this one... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordi1977 Posted February 11, 2023 Share Posted February 11, 2023 I should know better by now... A really awful display in the 2nd half. Defensively just awful and it was just too easy for Tynecastle to score. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First half was quite even. Broxburn maybe slightly edged it, but won a lot of corners without actually creating chances. Second half was a bit of a mauling as Tynecastle were sharper to everything and totally took advantage of all the space Broxburn gave them. Broxburn made it quite easy for them, but if they keep playing like that, they should be comfortably safe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once we gifted them a couple of goals they got their tails up. With the dross that’s been brought in by the previous management I’m not so sure we can stay up. Two weeks in a row they have folded like a pack of cards. No leadership on the park and from what I can see precious little team spirit. Next two games are crucial and need 6 points otherwise I think we will be relying on Edinburgh Uni to stay up in the LL or Lithgae to win the play-off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordi1977 Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Poor form and remembering that a 4th side could go down... it is starting to look a bit concerning. Surely it has to be 6 points from the next 2 games... anything else would be unthinkable. And 6 points should just about be enough... maybe 3 or 4 more for a cushion. It really is about getting through this season remaining a Premier side and then put something together for next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albynpark Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 The next 2 games will be hard. Continuing this Saturdays form, you'll be placing the other team as favourites. I'm sure they will turn it around. Just a bit of belief and confidence and they will get us through this 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It really is about getting through this season remaining a Premier side and then put something together for next season. Looking at the table, 35 points would keep us clear of 4th bottom and safety. A good chance ( but no doubt it will be difficult) to pick up 6 of the 10 required. Would then need 4 from 8 games still looking okay. A slip up in either of the next two makes it more difficult to get to 35. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordi1977 Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 The next two games are gonna be so tough. Both sides have just never got going this season, but guaranteed both are looking at the Broxburn fixture thinking, you know, these guys are really off form, if we keep it tight... We SHOULD win both. But I'd have thought the same about yesterday. Gonna be two tricky games and if any of the standard sloppiness comes into either game it could go badly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albynpark Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 I'm feeling confident for today's game. I predict a +3 goal victory. We can't keep feeling sorry for ourselves forever, I bet the players will be itching today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy groundhopper Posted February 18, 2023 Share Posted February 18, 2023 My holiday begins at Albyn Park, the speed and movement, along with some good finishing was enough for Brox. Fair play to VOL who kept going, maybe their level is the division below - where possibly their mistakes wont get punished so often. Nice set up and a decent pint in the bowls club too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
