Guest Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 18 minutes ago, Springfield said: Best we’ve played since Ayr game, looked a far better formation/shape, and Williamson has given McGlynn a headache for the starting eleven next week. We played well with that formation v Dunfermline too. The front three looked a real handful. Pace and movement of MOrrison and Burrell and Kennedy with the craft. I wouldn’t play Williamson, he would last about 20 minutes in the wide open spaces of Hampden. He will be effective in the play offs on that form. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His 2 assists were executed to perfection today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dink Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Really poor today. Falkirk started brightly and then when we let in a cheap goal we never really got going, while Falkirk got a big lift. Hogarth entirely to blame for the first, he didn't look great for the second (he seemed to get a good hand to the door, did should have kept it out) and the defending for the last two was pretty poor with two uncontested headers. Although Falkirk were so far ahead in the game they were well worth the win and the scoreline. Whenever I see us line up with Sammon and MacIver up front together my heart sinks a little, as I know that we're going to be serving up 90 minutes of hoofball to two strikers who will fail to hold it up. Although I do recognise that our options are very limited. We've now got 2 games to get 1 point (although we may not even need that to limp into the play-offs) but I really can't see any of the other three teams in the play-offs bring too worried by the prospect off playing us. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Higgenarse Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 I don't think Williamson will play, Mcglynn will go back to team that went on earlier winning streak with Oliver up top. Williamson should only be considered for last 20 minutes if we are chasing the game. He has performed well though in last two -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not going to complain if we manage it. 'Mon the Wasps. Very true as shown today. Still think we are a much better proposition to sign for if we can sneak a promotion. Obviously other factors involved too but Queen's Park had a breakout season despite sneaking in unconvincingly last year. Going to be an interesting summer in terms of extensions and signings - last year was an evolution than a revolution from the BF era. I think we could do with new blood. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagwasp Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Really poor Alloa performance today In particular I couldn’t believe how passive Strachan was, he can cross a ball & has a long throw but showed absolutely no heart, grit & determination on the left side where Doyle was battling for everything on the right. It actually looked like he didn’t want to be on the pitch & was frightened to advance forward with the ball. In my opinion he shouldn’t be anywhere near an Alloa shirt & the manager must have seen a different match to me in that he never took him off. Having said that I just felt Falkirk had too much for us. Morrison is a handful & with Kennedy & Burrell they will be a threat for most teams. Time to dust ourselves down & go again next week. Taggs & Donnelly are a big miss. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll play a reserve side I'm sure in the last game against Edinburgh so they'll almost certainly win. So Alloa will need a point, a couple of tough games left too 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Hat Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 I don't think Strachan has been a particularly great signing but today he looked like he wasn't 100 percent fit and was possibly carrying an injury. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The game is full of opinions which is healthy but I’ll have to agree to disagree on this one & think he’s been a poor signing and was really poor again today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got lucky again today with the other results. If we can't manage 1 point from the last 2 games - a scenario that would mean we'd clinch a play-off spot with 1 win and 1 draw from our last 6 games - then we certainly don't deserve the opportunity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alloamad Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 Brian Rice post match interview. Manager blaming players mistakes, having a go at fans complaining. Zero acknowledgement that maybe the team selection/formation wasn’t right. Take some ownership, if he’s not happy and being critical of players does he expect the paying punters to meekly sit and say nothing during a shitshow? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
