Steeplechat Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 He's decent enough. Always done well in other loan spells. How many times you watched him ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs a better conversion of goals. He didn't get many last season either. I would prefer a lyle/dobbie partnership and then bring dykes on to harass tiring defenders. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Set up a goal for Dobbie in 4-1 game at Falkirk (plus brought down for the penalty in that game) and also set up Dobbie`s 3rd at Dunfermline. Probably one or two others I would think.

QoS_1919 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 Are you confident of that? I'm sure as hell not. Falkirk will have the funds to bring players in (they already are), Caley are now improving and will likely finish above us. 10 points isn't a massive gap at this stage and with a competent manager in charge I expect Falkirk to start climbing the table. Look at yesterday's squad minus Kerr and Kane and that's what we have. Unless GN pulls something magical out the bag in this window the only playoffs we'll be near are the relegation ones. Aye I'm confident . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QoS_1919 Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 10 points isn’t that much over 15 games, given that the gap can be eliminated in 4 games. It may be unlikely but it is far from impossible. Falkirk’s points total covers the period when they were poor and they have improved and, unless something changes, we are going the opposite way. Can’t remember anybody suggesting that any of the U20s who haven’t featured should be playing. I suppose most fans don’t know how good they are, but the feeling is that if they haven’t featured up to now, they can’t have been as good as the players who were picked ahead of them. And if they aren’t as good, we will get proportionately less points in the remainder of the season. 3 points from the play offs isn't far away over 15 games either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As things stand, we have a weaker team than we did earlier in the season. And you think we will get more points than our rivals than we did when we had a stronger team? So, what is this based on? Do you know that we will definitely be making signings? Or do you just think that the team we have now will do a better job than the one we had before? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edit to add I agree he needs to score more. 3 in the league. No idea about the cups. 3 points from the play offs isn't far away over 15 games either. Unless we drastically improve our personnel then we'll be closer to the relegation play-offs than the promotion ones. I'd be willing to put my money where my mouth is on this and do a charity bet with you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd rather be 3 points off the play offs than 3 points off the relegation play offs, which is 10 points and 10 goals better off. I don't really get what's wrong about being positive about that? There's a couple weeks left in the window so we will see. R:e your comment about youth players, no one was crying out for the likes of holty to get in the first team, and when he did he wasn't up to it to begin with and look what happened with him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't see it getting any better any time soon either. Everything from the state of our ground to the players, manager and board is absolutely awful. Its like we go into games to try get a draw! Also, i thought we were in the "green zone" with finances? Where's the money going? Why is it we can only bring in utter dross? Massive downhill spiral, league 1 for us in the next 2 years. But you are now confident we won’t be in the relegation play-offs. Indeed, we have a good chance of getting into the promotion play-offs. Why the change of heart? On 27/11/2017 at 21:19, QoS_1919 said: It's got to the point I grudge paying the money to get into Palmerston. There's hardly any football on show, the balls forever lumped up the field and there is no fight or dig in the team whatsoever. If we got beat 2 or 3 nil but actually showed some guts in the game I wouldn't be so disheartened but there's nothing. It's no even worth paying the money just to see Dobbie anymore because he's been very poor. On 29/09/2017 at 18:24, QoS_1919 said: I must be in the minority that want our manager to stay!

He doesn't win enough headers and i cant think of a time where i was impressed with his link up play. He is a frustrating player but he just needs to improve his all round game a bit more to be a decent championship striker 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one. I don't think I've implied anyone has. My point was that even the biggest diehard wouldn't think this squad would get into the playoffs and given the rumblings just now it's not looking good that we will significantly strengthen in this window. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
