PortyMo Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Just to make everyone aware, we are playing today. Important game for us today to see if we can recapture our early season form. Recent results have seen us slip to 6th in the table but we have been leaking goals for fun. Losing the 2 Ross County lads will be a massive blow to our play-off chances. Hopefully, we have a couple of target loanees to replace them. Be interesting to see what Davie Robertson brings to Peterheid but hopefully his improvement plans don't kick in until after todays game. I'll go for a 0-2 away win more in hope than anything else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peternapper Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 We are hoping to have 4 or 5 new players in not sure how many will be registered in time for today. We have to get started and pick up points to keep Clyde in our sights. Hopefully we should notice a change with having strikers available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gable Endie Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Not optimistic about this one, we have just been so shambolic at the back that I can see Peterhead winning. We’ve also had those 2 boys recalled which will be a big miss so our squad is really lacking technical quality at the minute. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brummo Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Solid nil-nil or what? Couldn't get up the road in time for this one. Had to make do with following the live text on the BBC site. Squeaky bum time when Sinclair was red-carded, so was glad we hung on. Anything we learned today from this one? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
As Easterly as it gets! Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 New guys made a difference. Caused a team more problems in 45 minutes than we've done all season. To be fair to Montrose they were the better team in the 2nd half. Early days , but with more signings in the pipeline it can only really be in the upward direction. More hopeful of a better second half to the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scorge Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Not a great game, that. Peterhead looked better today than they did in the first game at Balmoor, and did create some chances, but still think they're in dire straits league-wise. We didn't do enough to win the game simply, and it's knocking on two months without one now. Some January activity needed: rightback and midfield a must, possibly even a striker, or we can forget the top 4. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are in dire straits league wise as you say, but we are simply looking to improve on a disastrous first half of the season. Realistically, all we can do is put pressure on Clyde for the play off place. Anything else would be a plus. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peternapper Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 Much better showing today and although we allowed Montrose to come more into things second half. The new players showed up well for us and if the manager continues to find suitable players we should improve. A clean sheet for the first time this season helps as well and look more threatening going forward as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tattie36 Posted January 2, 2023 Share Posted January 2, 2023 How did Daniel Fosu do for Peterheid today? He was quite divisive at Arbroath. Personally, I quite liked him and would have liked him to stay but others weren’t so positive. He wont get many, if any goals but he’s strong, physical and will give 100%. Montrose fans today may remember him scoring an absolute screamer for us pre season in Terry Mason’s testimonial game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortyMo Posted January 2, 2023 Author Share Posted January 2, 2023 Big Not the finest game of football I've seen !!! Could still be playing and it would still be 0-0. There was no clear cut chance at all in the game. Thought Mo were slightly the better team second half but, as said, never really looked like scoring. We haven't won in 7 games now and look like we've lost a lot of self-belief. Time for some hard work SP. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peterheid looked a lot more like a team from the previous 2 meetings this season. They are probably too far behind most to secure safety but should have enough to overcome Clyde to avoid automatic relegation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you not mixing up with Rory McAllister, he has perfected falling down over the years lol. Hope you have thawed out!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peternapper Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 The Montrose keeper must have been watching Kung-Foo Panda at Christmas if he had done that on the street rather than on the park he would have had a night in the cells rather than just a red card. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time for some hard work SP. From the opposite end it looked like our keeper had 2 good saves 2nd half. For us, the 2 good chances fell to Wilkie. First half one he simply took too much time to get the shot away and 2nd half when he broke clear he put it past the post when maybe he should've rolled it across for the incoming player. But a draw was about right on the day. Pity it wasnt 2-2 instead of 0-0! Rory still getting daft bookings. Some things never change. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
