This is when we get guys who have never been to an away game and, just as the teams kick off, they search for their seat as per the ticket to discover we have all just taken any available seat.

Sonny Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 1 hour ago, Sweeper07 said: TEAM NEWS - well my guess Hladky 1. Baird Popescu McGinn Muzek McGinn Flynn Lyons Mullen Duck Subs 7 from : GK :Holmes, Defence: Corbu, MacKenzie, Ferdinand Midfield: Erhahon, MacPherson, Dreyer, McAllister, Kellerman, Attack Jackson, Cooke, Assuming Flynn and McGinn they will be playing. I think that leaves Oran with only one position to decide upon. It could go to MacKenzie or Corbu or Erhahon I expect. I suspect Oran will know who might best suit playing on astro - plastic surfaces and fit with his game plan best. The GK sub is a given. If MacK has no adverse hassles from last week and he is ok on this surface, it will likely be him. That would leave Corbu, Ferdinand and Erhahon (D & Midfield) on the bench cover for defence - I'd drop Ferdinand out altogether though if we have 3 CB's playing. Other subs : McAllister if fit, if not Dreyer, and MacPherson and have Jackson but it is a tough call leaving Cooke out altogether. So I would have him before Dreyer and Dreyer only if McAllister is not fit.... unless Magennis is ready for the bench. Will he be our "joker" this week? For the first time all season we have nearly a full team fit that are available for the subs bench . . . Goals for us from a CB, a McGinn and a striker Would not disagree with most of that (I reckon Gary Mac will start). However I would start Jackson before Nazon as this game has got to start at a really high tempo IMHO and rattle them from kick off (and get our crowd going) and Jackson works harder than Nazon.

Magic Monkey Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 FFS. Nerves kicking in now. If I think about the game at all, I start to feel optimistic, then panic because I feel optimistic and we all know that's what kills you.

buddies1877 Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 And if Saints stay up be as well giving whole stadium to old-firm when they come as Kearney has given them points before game starts....Away have a lie down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever team that was picked however, I am fully convinced OK did nothing but give them confidence in his chosen game plan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are giving him undue credit - it is not the team OK picked, it is :- 1. He hates ok and thinks Stubbs was better. 2. He thinks Samson is crap. 3. He detests the Old Firm so much that he wants them away and all their fans to disappear. 4. He wants ticket prices to be cheaper. 5. He wants players to die for the cause and not earn so much money etc. etc. etc BUT most of all - He wants lots of attention... keep feeding him OR ?

East Lothian Saint Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 (edited) I'm not saying Hamilton are a shambles or that their communication strategy is flawed but if the last time is anything to go by then do the opposite of what the Stewards tell you and you will be fine. (Audio/volume needed) Ok it was shambolic.

the barrhead teacher Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 Daughter got four tickets this afternoon. Impression given was that very few tickets available Saturday at gate. Big away support guaranteed. Hoping for a performance as last time l went to new Douglas park we were scuffed 3-0 in crap weather.

You don't know very much and you have no clue about tactics in football at this level. AND it is clear you don't watch games with ANY understanding of ability of any sorts.

djchapsticks Posted April 5, 2019 Report Share Posted April 5, 2019 Make or break moment in our season tomorrow. Hamilton win and they are gone. 7 clear with 5 to play....you're then fighting for a playoff at best. If we win though, by jeebus it's game on....we are the only team that have consistently flattered Hamilton and made them look better.....much better.....than they are. Time to change that tomorrow and put a lot of horrible hoodoos to rest at this venue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
