MORleyTON Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 Grimshaw has been a big loss this season. The defender merry-go-round earlier in the season didn't help either (Harkness being a case in point). This season has been much worse for injuries. The first third we had a threadbare squad, rolling with 3 subs only at times. Strapp re-signing was a catalyst to that tremendous run, plus actually having consistency in the roster too. Final third, Oakley and Wilson have been huge misses and no coincidence that our midfield and defence became as water tight as our nets as a result of Wilson being out. Would be nice to finish the last 4 on a high with everyone back now.....unless Strapp is still out. Dougie - bench Broadfoot please. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus hunting packs of red dotters probably putting forum members off giving an honest opinion of how they see it. Also would be better if they just let the regular dicks rant on and just ignore them.

I have been to the three games he has now played. First game not very good and off the pace as expected as wasn't fully fit and rusty. Second game better but still needed to sharpen up and get some service. Third game, further improved and went on some decent runs but after early booking had to hold back on physical challenges. Might have done better if Muirhead and Crawford had better games. Feel a hattrick tonight would go down well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mishtergrolsch Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 4-0 United. Moult hat trick and a screamer from somebody else from somewhere outside the box...possibly a Morton player but wouldn't be too fussy if it was one of our players. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fletchers Saucy Manbun Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 United will inevitably again snatch failure from the jaws of promotion again this evening. Bit your hand of for a jammy 1-0 to put us effectively 8 clear. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's played mainly RB for us and must say he has been a disappointment and wouldn't be surprised if he was let go next season if a club will want him off our hands 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dunning1874 Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 There's about four different shapes that team could be in, and none of them are good. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went 7 clear of 5th and got to a point behind Partick. And then we fucked it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was our Player of the Season too, surprised to hear he didn't kick on with you. Would happily take him back. No Oakley tonight.....oh dear. Wilson starting is a positive at least. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colkitto Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 I would say it's a back 3 with Wilson and French out wide with Jai or Big Robbie as our CF 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted April 12 Share Posted April 12 (edited) WTF is Grimshaw in? Should have been the same team as the last two weeks. Hopefully the same tactics at least. Edited April 12 by Granny Danger 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oakley out again. Rough night ahead. I don't think I saw a minute of Grimshaw last season but there's no fucking way he was anywhere near the best midfielder in the championship. That's absolutely wild. He's ranged from pretty steady to poor at right back for us, but is Jordan Tillson level poor in midfield. Probably worse than Tillson, who is at least mobile. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
