DoonhamerDon Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 Definite end of season feel to the interest around this game - understandable with both teams practically (if not mathematically) out of the play-off running. Last week appeared to be the reminder (I was going to say reality check but I think we were all reasonably grounded around the unexpected-ness of our upturn in form) that our squad still needs a major overhaul for next season. However, there are clear signs that Bartley can get performances and results out of sub-par players and in theory this would get easier with his own players in this summer. He's improved the squad in the key areas with the players he brought in in January but the summer is a big test and of course its not as simple as just "getting better players" - every club is in the same boat trying to upgrade on what they have. As we said before this run had us flirting with the pay-offs, lets end the season in as strong a position as we can. Hoping for a reaction to last week but there is the possibility for a drab 0-0 with both teams minds firmly on the beach. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 Yes, this one's really caught the public's imagination. Anything could happen. None of it'll matter. Can't wait. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Well the great day has finally arrived. That coveted 6th spot in the 3rd tier is up for grabs. 'Bring it on' I say. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Bring it on' I say. Let's hope that after all the pre-match hype a game of such importance doesn't turn out to be a damp squib. With the stakes being so high, we just have to hope that the players can handle the enormity of the moment and don't freeze on the big occasion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otis Blue Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Must be a real risk of traffic gridlock in the town centre around 2 pm today as the big crowd converges on the stadium. I'm sure the polis will have contingency plans in place though including taking manual control of the lights on Buccleuch St bridge ... aye? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Hoping for a reaction from the players today tbh. If the season is officially over tonight then I won't be too arsed about the last two games but after a thumping last week I do want a reaction (as will MB I'm sure). As much as I don't want the majority of this side back next year, for a large portion of them it'll be as good as it'll get receiving a new contract from QoS so they should be doing their best to be offered one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Bad enough we make a rod for our own backs without the officials chipping in. Holy f**k. Clear as day penalty. Slack pass from Brydon (yet someone near me still blamed Kev ffs). Really need to see the foul again though. He made no attempt to play the ball but I thought there were boys covering to prevent it being a red. The second goal McKechnie is adamant he got the ball. Can't see for sure over here. The third though, f**k me. McKenzie controlled it with his arm right infront of the linesman who unsurprisingly completely misses it. Quite disappointing as we were well on top until the red card and playing decent football. It's taken the competition out the game tbh. Connelly will likely be hooked for Cochrane or McGrory. Could be a very dull second half from our point of view. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 (edited) Surprised to see the red card. Does the foul not now need deemed deliberate to be a red and a penalty? It just looked like Brydon clumsily stumbled into the back of him, to me. Edited April 22, 2023 by Monkey Tennis 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just didn't think it was a particularly clear opportunity to shoot. I was actually watching the boy running into the box with the other defenders as I was expecting a cutback to him rather than a shot. So was very surprised to see the red. I'd need to see it back though. If you give that muppet the chance to send you off he'll take it though. Literally sent a text 5 min previous to the Mrs saying "there will be a red or a penalty today" Edited April 22, 2023 by 19QOS19 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 That however was the easiest red he'll ever dish out. Completely stupid. If Hendrie keeps walking I wouldn't give a shit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
