The Great Stagsby Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 Although I was almost completely overseas during his short time at the club, I also was gutted Sernas's time here didn't work out. I think he could've turned into a very good player for us, and suspect he may have been a better player than many with us at that time. Bittersweet that the team suddenly clicked, went on an amazing run to survive the drop, and because if it he never had a look-in. More sweet than bitter, it must be said. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spain Posted October 8, 2015 Share Posted October 8, 2015 If you search for "Liam Boyce" right now on twitter, all you find is official tweets for the Norn lineup, or rakes and rakes of people questioning along the lines of "How the f**k is Josh Magennis starting over Liam Boyce?" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is Boyce on the bench? I'm tempted to switch off the Scotland shite and bring back #LiamBoyceLive 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frankthetank22 Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 No where near good enough to make the first two starting central midfield places, he was an unused sub the other day tho. Maybe he'll be used more if we play 5 in the middle against better teams away from home. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRS LEFT PEG Posted October 31, 2015 Share Posted October 31, 2015 I thought he would struggle at that level. Thanks anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankthetank22 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 I thought he would struggle at that level. Thanks anyway. There's time yet, yes there's been disappointing matches but there was also a glimmer of light in an away game in Perth. Mcshane linked up well and was great in supporting his team mates in creating an space for an out ball, he helped make nice wee triangular passing moves, more of this and he will have a good future ahead of him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Ian McShane will easily make it at this level - he's comfortably our midfield's best on the ball. It just seems like he's not the best in a midfield 2. He's a good player and his time will come. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yoda Posted November 1, 2015 Author Share Posted November 1, 2015 Has McShane actually been disappointing? He didn't have a great game against Hearts (in Dingwall) but neither did Irvine, with Gomis/Buaben keeping both of them quiet. It sounded like he was alright against Celtic, Hamilton, and St. Johnstone. He needs to adapt to the Premiership but I don't think he would be a significantly worse option in the middle than Woods. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankthetank22 Posted November 1, 2015 Share Posted November 1, 2015 Our midfield going missing has been the key to these jekyll and Hyde performances lately,dynamic one match anomonous the next. Why, and what's the remedy, God knows? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunglebonce Posted December 2, 2015 Share Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) It struck me that we are halfway through the pre-split fixtures. What do Ross County supporters make of the season so far? I have to say that I am quite happy. The team started the season well on the whole. They have gained just six points from 21 in October and November, but there were some particularly tricky fixtures during that time. It's clear to me from the first 16 fixtures that the division's top three are, generally, of a higher level than what County can achieve as a team. I think the next month will better define if County really are a top six side, if not challenge St Johnstone for fourth place (which is theirs to lose IMO). My current opinion is that one of Dundee or ICT will take fifth or sixth, leaving County and Hamilton to try to get the other. Here are some stats, just from league matches, which I think well reflect the style of play and character of the squad that the management have shaped. I include in brackets figures to include all league fixtures since and including 14/02/15, the first time we saw the current 4-4-2 system: Ross County have scored first in 62.5% of their league fixtures this season (66% since Valentine's Day). Where they score first, they have won 60% of league matches this season (70%) They have lost just 10% of games in which they score first (15%) The share of points earned in matches, after conceding the first goal, is 0% for this season (25% since Valentine's) Edited December 2, 2015 by bunglebonce 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Les Westander of County Posted December 12, 2015 Share Posted December 12, 2015 (edited) Haven't seen the DL squad in action but Miller would have to be pretty good to displace Fraser. Unless Fraser went centre back which seems unlikely. I agree with Bunglebonce, albeit 2 results later: we are doing pretty well though I would not expect us to catch the top 3, and St J are getting further away from us too. We'll need great consistency to maintain top 6 status. Edited December 12, 2015 by Les Westander of County 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frankthetank22 Posted December 15, 2015 Share Posted December 15, 2015 What a difference a year make eh. A year ago i thought we were doomed for relegation and the possibility of years out with the top division. Our squad just now is imo the best we have ever had and and we have a trip to hampden for a cup semi final to look forward to, things are certainly looking up. Well done to all those involved 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
