Gordon Urquhart Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Looking at that table its suddenly a big game tomorrow. Win and we are right up there, draw or lose and we stay in the pack. Cant see many fans travelling from Dumfries, why should they when can watch for free on TV. Livi are doing well, only been beaten once by us. Go for 2-1 Saints..... PS Ha ha Falkirk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bollocks.Each game is as important as the other in the league as points are available in every league game.We have played 6 games and all of a sudden it’s ‘a big game’ ? Reality check required, good start, be really good to keep the momentum going, which is a long way from where we were this time last season.Draw 2-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
St.Ricky Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Other posters have it right The league is tightly bunched at the top end. Each game is , of course, vital..including the QOS game. Four points out of 6 in the next two games would be good. 6 would be great.

Langbank Posted September 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 In Jacks latest interview there is a sheet on board behind him showing first quarter targets. 21 points shown so we need to win next 3 to hit set target.

Mr Optimistic Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Its been a good start to the season and at our best we have played some great football as we did during 'The Great Escape' last season. I'm enjoying this league and the fact we try and play football. But to be up there challenging come the end of the season we are going to have to stop conceding as many goals, especially away from home. Tough game tomorrow and we are without Buchanan, MacKenzie and Eckersley so expect us to return to a back 4. Hopefully we will get a reaction after the Dunfermline game as we did after the Morton game and take the 3 points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notabuddie Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Apart from the Falkirk game, when have we been losing early goals ? Stranraer, thistle Falkirk and morton all within the first 20 minutes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommy Posted September 23, 2017 Report Share Posted September 23, 2017 Stranraer, thistle Falkirk and morton all within the first 20 minutes So 2 league games our of 6 and you think 20 mins is early in a game [emoji102] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

faraway saint Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 Dobbie & Lyle......................need to keep an eye on these two or we're in trouble. Obviously concerns about our defence, even on a good day TBH, and QOS will know we're vulnerable. Hope our midfield and forwards have a good day, we'll need to score 2 or 3 to win IMO. Saying that probably 0-0. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fan4ever Posted September 24, 2017 Report Share Posted September 24, 2017 (edited) Every game is a hard game. The team has to be at their best in every game. There has been 2 games this year below the players own standards (morton and dunfermline) and we know the outcome. The other matches the players were on top form. So if after every game the players can walk of the pitch knowing they did their best and played well I am happy but if they come of the pitch knowing they didn't like after morton which I left with 20 min to go as it was dire then they get beat fair and square. Today is going to be difficult, next week will be difficult, all games will difficult this season. But players must be up for every game Edited September 24, 2017 by fan4ever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This will be a very difficult game, likely to be goals as both teams are better going forward than they are defensively. Missing the game due to my father in laws 70th birthday meal, which was re-arranged from yesterday due to him wanting to watch the rangers get humiliated. Might be a few trips to the toilet as I try to watch on my phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's certainly fair to say playing Dunfermline is a hard game while playing Brechin is, well, less hard. I agree. overall, that we can influence games as much as the opposition by the way we play but it's not always down to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
