Looks like it could be 4-4-2 tonight.
Let's hope we don't miss McGrath, Doyle Hayes, Brophy, Quaner and Dennis too much.

Hard to "miss" Quaner surely ?

Take your point - maybe more of what might be.

I think we will miss especially the sharpness and bite of Doyle Hayes and McGrath in the midfield.

I don't get the point of 2 keepers on the bench, I know we're short of numbers but surely there must be at least one other outfield player available?

Team looking as strong as it possibly could do just now. Good subs in Connolly and Flynn.

Presumably Jim doesn't want two out and out wingers tonight and also that Hamilton will sit back leaving no room for Connolly until later in the match when they tire.

Just realised that with everyone fit we only have about 18 outfield players who would genuinely be 1st team players.

Presumably that's because of covid and would explain why we always seem to be light on the bench when we get one or two knocks.

As for Flynn, just glad he's able to feature after that horrible looking tackle at the weekend where I honestly thought he'd bust his leg or his knee.

Anyone remember the days when we had around 30 first team players a couple of years ago?

I'm guessing you weren't able to name one when you asked the question and by default you answered it yourself.

Two keepers - surely just to give Urminsky an opportunity to be involved with the 1st team on match day ?

Fair doos. It's still pointless though.

A scrappy 1-0  

I’d love to see us put in a great performance and thrash them, but I’d take that scrappy 1-0 win right now !

I suppose there is that.

If Flynn is fit to play then I can't agree with MacPherson playing as first choice.  AGAIN, Hamilton are big and strong and MacPherson is too lightweight and not aggressive enough. 

[turrabuddie 1,767]

Have we tried Erwin partnering Obika before ? I don’t remember.

My worry is that Cammy and Ethan are not streetwise enough - much better with an experienced head beside them.

2-0 to the saints 👍🏻

Free header from the corner, just as well the guys got a head like a shoe box.

Linesman knocked over................

[faraway saint 31,704]

Oh, great move, great save by the Hamilton goalie, close. 

[faraway saint 31,704]

They look dangerous from corners, the No3 can hit a decent ball. 

[faraway saint 31,704]

Good game so far, looks like their could be goals at either end TBH.

Durmus?

I've learned to let the drivel wash over me, it is what it is, just concentrate on the game. 

[faraway saint 31,704]

OMG, off the bar, a stramash from the corner, bounced twice on the bar.
