Tommy Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 7 hours ago, beyond our ken said: Yes, one third of games we are losing goals in the first third. add to that, the near misses that we have survived, there is no doubt, we take a long time to settle defensively and if our goal threat is nullified then we are very vulnerable-as evidence in 2 crucial games so far. there are hopeful signs as well as serious alarm bells We certainly are losing far to many goals but I don't think a goal scored in around 20mins can be classed as early.

Callum Gilhooley Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 So 2 league games our of 6 and you think 20 mins is early in a game [emoji102] Jack and James both acknowledged it was something that needed worked on ,They don't start games at the right tempo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 IF we got a win today we'd be in a great position to take advantage next week as Dunfermline play Dundee United while we host Brechin. Looking even further ahead to the end of the season this would the 2nd last set of games, if we're still in the mix THAT would be a massive weekend and opportunity.

St.Ricky Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 A win would be great with 1 point this week and 3 points next week giving us 4 out of 6 points. But hey.....6 out of 6 looks better.....so here's hoping. I will be there. COYS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 2-2 draw today. Reilly and Morgan. Last week was a boot to the stones, so it'll be interesting to see how the players respond. Needless to say, it should be a flying start, with Saints pressing Queens and dictating the pace of the game - we are at home, after all. The front line will need to be as good as they've been as a unit, as I can see us shipping a couple of goals given the experience and potency of the Queens strike force. Not too confident of the win today. 3,764 in attendance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are always some dafties who will make the effort. My two daughters and I are on the Edinburgh train en route to Paisley for the match. What a cruel dad. If you feel sorry for them you can buy them a drink in the 1877 club. Crowd will be at least 3. COYS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

santaponsasaint Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 The rain is to be on all day. But I hope the game goes ahead.. Tho if not our suspended players will not play against Brechin next week and I hope we could handle them without Buckie and Eckersley.

stlucifer Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 Can't even attempt a prediction for this game. Our defence will be an entirely unknown quantity. I hope McCart is solid and Baird does the simple things well. Probably 4 at the back which suits Irvine but not Stelios. IF we play as well as we can and the defence is reasonable we should win this. Here's hoping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
