Diddy cup final is normally a Sunday fixture although BBC ALBA had it as 25/26th March. If Scotland play Slovenia on the Saturday game will probably be Sunday then.

87Bud13 Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 (edited) **FIXED** Quote Mixed emotions for you TC. Ross' team in the second half produced our best form of the season. The downer for you is that JR is one game further away from getting the sack. However don't give up hope. The first half was the 'old Saints' the second was the 'new Saints' perhaps an indication of things to come. Thought Morgan coming on did really well again. Proving to be very effective from the bench? Hope we can carry that performance into next week. March is looking like a BIG month for us!!

ulysses Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 Thought Stelios grew into the game, nice too see a genuinely two footed player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oaksoft Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 7 goals scored in 2 weeks and the first back to back wins for ages and a really solid performance today against what I thougt was a decent TNS side. There is some real quality in our team and we appear to have worked out how to score. Next week we will either be just 5 points behind Ayr or we will be to all intents and purposes be relegated. Only positivity is needed. Hey TC, any chance of just one day where you dont pollute the forum with your gloom? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was a mini meltdown that was. Think Mallan miss 1 before the Shankland 1, but I cant remember who we were playing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As all teams in lower leagues i`m sure I've read it would be at one of their grounds to ensure all cash stayed in championship club. Year when Sevco played it was at easter road as Hibs were down. Could be Dunfermline or Airdrie and poss easter road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee bud Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 Just back from the game and happy we went through but Loy and Storie were hopeless and playing with four centre mids and no wingers is nuts and thank God he came to his senses at half time and brought morgy on but I would have given the other winger a run out for the last five minutes to see if he's got anything to offer instead we bring on a right back ?

Stevie88 Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 Not long back from the game, I wasn't looking forward to it in the slightest & after the first half display I realised why.Second half we were brilliant, looked a different team with pace & energy. A lot of credit to Lewis Morgan, he ran their right back ragged in the second half. Said it before but hopefully this will give the players a lift & we get 3 points next week. Looking forward to next Saturday already, massive game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Is The Man Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 McGinn was a class act today. Never lost the ball once, got stuck in and an absolute screamer to boot.What an injustice it would've been if he had been on the losing side.Tough one on Loy. Sitting a bit deeper than usual and looking the most disinterested I've ever seen a player but yet still pops up with a goal out of nothing. I'd take goals over hard work any day of the week.

Sonny Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 Very good second half display. For the maddies that said TNS were better than us - you were WRONG as they were pish from start to finish. I think Morgan was on the bench, like last week, because Jack knows how good a player he is and was wanting to rest him a bit as he had played most games this season. He is needed for the important League games. Bringing him on and moving Malan into the middle meant we totally dominated the whole of the second half and ran out comfortable winners. It would have been more comfortable if Sutton could hit a dead ball into the net from 12 yards. The most disappointing thing about today, besides the first half, was the strike force who were woeful - and yes I am aware they both scored, but it was the midfield who got the first two goals and had the most shots on target. We must have a forward line with the fewest attempts on goal in the whole of Scotland. And you can choose any combination of strikers that we have had this season. Glad Smith is back for next week. Well done to Jack Ross and the team who looked a decent outfit in the second half. Let's continue at Ayr next week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
