Airdrieonians vs Dunfermline Athletic - Basement Dwellers Collide~!


Recommended Posts

It’s really difficult to feel inspired by our performances so far. I simply can’t see where we can get a win unless it’s against ten men. 
You know it’s bad when @The red diamondhas given up posting comments about his team. (or maybe I’ve just missed them?) 

Anyhoo, I think we’ll huff and guff our way to a nil nil draw, and worse is both sides will be happy with that.

Although losing the game late on we actually looked to have improved a bit on Saturday and we hopefully will have a few players back for this game as well.

So going for a narrow home win and another fife teams manager getting his Jotters after a game against Airdrie.

Huge game, for both sides. Can see it being a nervous affair, or maybe that's just me. I'll be there, more in hope than in expectation.

I could have wrote and posted the same thing 😒.

I don't think the Potato Park will be the place for free flowing attacking gusto on Saturday tbh, and whoever shows the most grit, fight and determination will prove victorious.

either that or whoever doesn't make a balls up of it more.

1-1.

We’re going to play for 0-0, let’s be honest. McPake will be all about trying to avoid defeat, rather than trying to win. If Mehmet’s in goals, we’ll concede at least 2.

Expect McPake to make some stupid changes in the team as well. Probably go back to his back 5, not because it makes sense but because he’s a numpty.

Good. We can’t play attacking fitbaw. I hope Tobi is back in goal, that will help us get a 0-0

Was thinking about going to this but only if Tobi is back in goal, so if the manager could announce his line up on Saturday morning that would be smashing.

Mehmet not solely to blame for either goal on Saturday but we just play shite when he plays. Really wish that weren't the case but it is.

We play shit when he plays because he does the opposite of instilling confidence for the defenders.  They have to sit deeper, and second guess wtf he is going to do behind them. 

Tobi plays like a sweeper keeper higher up so the defence and team naturally move further up. I worry he is sometimes too far out his box but I'd prefer him in goal any day of the week.

We've only scored twice in the same game, in the league once, relax Callum

You haven’t come up against Deniz Mehmet yet though. It’s not just the mistakes he makes, it’s how much more nervous the defence look when he’s in goals.

That being said, I’ll be happy if I’m proved wrong. But even happier if Tobi’s fit and I don’t need to be proved wrong!
