Sweeper07 Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 (edited) This is the hardest game to predict. Both teams could score blanks or anything up to 5 or 6. As well as that - who from the injury list is available? They too may have some injury's., strains etc. This is a game that is so much about mentality.. a defeat is no disaster at this stage for us - we would still be a point off top.. but psychologically a win would push us well in front as well as potentially holding a 5 point lead.. I will predict a goal from Reilly and one from the midfield... maybe Smith, Morgan or Kirkpatrick (as a sub) Dunfermline 1 v 2 The Saints - (statistics would say more likely to be 3 v 4 but I am hoping our defence tightens up a bit this week) JR get the boys to focus on 3 more points... winning bonus... and staying top of the League.

Froggie Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Rarely go to away games but would have gone to this one but for prior engagements with Lady Frog. Will keep up as much as possible if radio coverage available. If Morton can beat them, so can we. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintargyll Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 I don't think Dunfermline will be challengers,they have just had a good start,they will be top 5 mind you we are buzzing and they got buzzed on saturday 2-3 to the real black and white Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beyond our ken Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 If the pars don't shape up on Saturday then there is a serious question as to how many real contenders there are in this division. We could already have seen the sternest challenges that we will face in this league campaign. I think Morton might well be the best of the rest if we remain consistent and consistently improve. I am rarely complacent and, of course, i dont think there is overwhelming evidence yet to support the theory above, but I dont think we have seen that much from any side so far. The main areas we need to improve are centre-mid, where we shortly have a key player returning from injury and in central defence. Once again, we are looking to be stronger there in a few weeks than we currently are. Add to this the fact that a couple of managers must be sweating over their jobs already, namely Mackinnon and Houston, i think at least one of these will be gone by Christmas. If we dont see a challenge emerge before the end of the first round then there is the distinct possibility that we could consider complacency as the main obstacle.

Sonny Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Not convinced Morton are best of the rest. We were shit at Cappielow mostly because MacKenzie had concussion before the game had even started and played without informing the manager. However Morton did not really impress me that much besides Quitingo but as their main striker he has only scored 1 goal this season. Livi looked a well organised outfit and ICT looked better than the soapdodgers to me. But I have only seen them play once so maybe they are better than I think they are. The soapdodgers certainly think we are absolute shit based on that defeat. But they are wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougJamie Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 The only thing I am confident predicting is that Brechin/ Dumbarton or Livi will not win the League............... As we prepared for League One last season it showed that anything is possible ,and 35 points in 22 games also showed this league is all about confidence Pars had Ton in their back pocket till their defence crumbled, Ton fans booing at HT................ Another thing I am pretty confident about is the result Sat will not be 0-0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

djchapsticks Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Thomson and Collum are the f**king worst choices we could have. Collum is utterly incompetent and Thomson over compensates any time he's in charge of one of our matches. That the SFA have given us these two f**king clowns twice apiece in League duties already this season is ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

munoz Posted September 12, 2017 Report Share Posted September 12, 2017 Finding it difficult to predict this one . Could be win,lose or draw , although I was slightly heartened by a soap dodger in my work saying that they were very poor apart from Cardle . 3-1 Saints .

This seems to be a wee game you play in your mind as I've seen you say it a few times in relation to my posts. I'm glad it entertains you but there's literally no-one else in on your wee joke.
