TPAFKA Jersey 2 Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 Didn’t see either of the goals so don’t know what the deficiencies were there, but the rest of it was pretty underwhelming to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea - pretty poor (the bits I did see). Poor up front, poor in the final ball and pedestrian middle of the park. Missed the first goal but second one was rookie defending.

Hopefully Mandron and McMenamin get starts in the LC and Nehmani becomes available Olusanya is not good enough and I have doubts about Greive too I assume that these are not new doubts ? He's never been good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poor up front, poor in the final ball and pedestrian middle of the park. Missed the first goal but second one was rookie defending. I think I saw about ten minutes of the second half; plus about twenty or so of the first half, Olysanya was dire, headless chicken is the best description he looked like an eager schoolboy at a trial, running after everything but catching very little, sorry but I can't see a footballer there., Taylor in defence was not great either given the limited time that I viewed, he had lots of misplaced passes and just didn't look confident, I do like Grieve; but he is ineffectual without a boisterous target man, much to lightweight to force the issue without support. The rest of the game was so broken up between black screens, slow motion and Keystone cops speed t was difficult to comment on others, but a poor showing surely.

Wilbur Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 Pre-season friendlies are training exercises. You can't read anything into them. Last season we were beaten by Northampton Town in Paisley. How did our season go after that ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are of course right that it doesn’t matter, but let’s not pretend today was anything other than garbage. I won’t be getting my knickers in a twist though until the proper stuff starts next Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre season games have their uses and I would think Robbo will have taken a lot from today - wouldn't imagine the strikers who started will be in our starting 11, but I it was useful to see how they performed ... The 2 new lads are only just in the door and cannot be judged yet - they are however our expected source of goals / assists etc Keeper issue needs resolving - unless Carson has refused to play he should be starting .. Keanu missing etc So, what was on the team sheet today should be a shadow of what starts our SPL campaign Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santaponsasaint Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 I know it's a pre season game, but our effort in the game was embarrassing. Not gonna mention any player. But there's 5/6 in that team today. Who won't even make the squad this season. We badly need a center half. Can't judge Mandron or McMeminan. But a few others need to up their game. Waste of a Saturday. Sent from my SM-S906B using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 Need to take the result on the chin and remember it's just a fitness exercise. Ross county lost to Queens Park today. Glad to hear Robbo is still wanting another striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given Hemming had the number 1 AND his name on his back, I think we've said goodbye to Carson. As for the game. Mandron looks like he's never kicked a ball and, as for the rest. Let's just say, the fans turned up, the team didn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alwaystrue Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 By all accounts a shit showing today, rather win than lose, but if these games help SR fine tune and decide who he can trust when the serious stuff kicks in next week then so be it.

Also-IMO the man of the match was undoubtedly the Morton keeper. Kept them in the match with at least 3 excellent saves. He deserved the round of applause when he was substituted late in the match. If Ihave a comment it would be that we moved the ball too often with sideways passes. Particularly in the second half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastlandssaint Posted July 8, 2023 Report Share Posted July 8, 2023 Huffed and puffed for most of the match to no avail, then the turning point seemed to be when they brought on about six substitutes which gave them fresh impetus, then the penalty and a quick fire second goal. Early doors yet, as its all about fitness at this stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have hated our style of play since we started doing it just invites mistakes especially when you have a defence as shit as ours.
