I see Scott Brown (yes that one) is training with The Spartans and considering coming out of retirement. 
 

That’ll be fun…

As long as it's not the actual Scott Brown, who is safely stored away at Raith Rovers...

Scott Brown turning out for Spartans would be very cinch.  Based on his time at Aberdeen and a few matches I watched of theirs, his legs were completely gone then.  A year plus away from playing won't have helped him either although will still have a decent level of fitness.  He has family involvement at the club's youth level according to reports so perhaps not hugely unrealistic if still strange.   

On our side a lot will depend on how much Monday took out of us physically.  Olivebank was a tight pitch and not as heavy as perhaps expected with the weather before the game so as far as the requirement of extra time being a factor it might not have done too much damage.  I would hope to see Liam Scullion start and Alex King back from enforced Cup prison but I don't envisage many other changes from what started on Monday night.

I'd like to see this on Saturday, given who we have available:            

                      - Leighfield -

- Hynes - Carswell - Dunachie - Craig -

  - Leslie - King - Scullion - Stevenson -

                  - Rennie - Young -

I wouldn't mind Whyte in the above for Carswell.

Whyte at CH if Carswell play RB? 
can Hynes play LB?

Are you Danny Lennon? Why not just play players in their specialist positions? Craig hasn't been great this season but he's still a left-back, and Hynes is a right-back, so just play them there rather than doing any weird jiggery-pokery.

We now have a mostly fit squad, so there's no excuse for playing players out of position.

Saying Craig hasn’t been great is like a classic Danny Lennon post match understatement.

He has been absolutely terrible. So much so EVEN Lyons out of position is a better option. Craig’s regression since tail end of last season has been frightening. He simply cannot defend.

So soft. Had spells of keeping the ball to create absolutely nothing. Spartans wander forward twice and we concede our usual powderpuff goals. Good luck to any new manager getting a tune out of that. A blow losing Whyte too - hope it’s not too serious. He looked concerned coming off.

No tracking at the first goal and you could see the confusion of players not knowing who to pick up before the corner so no surprise to concede from it.

Formation not working and, as above, leaving Dunachie stuck with the ball is mental.
