Auld Jag Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 As we want to do well in the cups i would be starting tomorrows game with the same team as we would be playing against Aberdeen.This will be a hard game and I don't think we should be experimenting.Also I hope the more times the players get on the park together we can get some rythym going.

lady-isobel-barnett Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Can I please say it. As this game is played to a conclusion this IS a must win game. Agree with AJ. This should be a difficult game and I think we'll play a strong team. In a way we're fortunate as we can still freshen up the team without weakening it. That said perhaps Scully will play. It's fairly routine to switch goalies and makes sense to give your reserve keeper valuable game time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennymac29 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 I would like see scully and mcdaid (for amoo) both in. The rest of the team needs to be strong as its one competition we actually have a chance of doing well in. Falkirk are a decent side. Hoping aero gets a game though to give him a cheer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Veejag Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Scully Miller (insert youngster here) Seabo Booth Fraser Osman Banzo McDaid Amoo Doolan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potty trained Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 I think Archie needs to play who ever he believes are his on form and therefore, first choice centre half pairing, and get them infront of Cerny. If it's Frans & Seabo, so be it. Whoever it is needs game time, playing together and building their understanding. Miller and Booth pick themselves. I'd give Osman a rest, make sure he's fully fit for Saturday. And play Banzo and Welsh infront of the defence. Fraser infront of them allows the three to swap about throughout the game. Amoo needs to get his eye in, have a game where he's the star of the show to build his confidence. It gives Stevenson a rest, and means we have an attacking mid, right wing or centre forward ready to come off the bench, in one player. Give Lawless the first half and let him and Amoo swap at will. give McDaid the second half. Doolan to start up front. It's hard luck on Scully, but that's part of the job being the 2nd choice keeper. Hard luck on the young lads at centre half. Neither has really shown themselves up so far. I'm confident with either or both in the starting 11.

jaf Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 That's exactly my team too potty trained. I think it's pointless dropping amoo. He needs to build confidence and hopefully this is the fixture to do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Scimmia Rossa Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 I'd rest Seabourne. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindau Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 I'd rest Seabourne. Me as well. To be honest I would rather one of the young guys at least got a game on a regular basis. They are both big but they are fast as well, which certainly can't be said about Frans or Seaborne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnyjag Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Unfortunately Banzo is suspended from tonight's game, and Welsh is carrying a knock according to today's press. Therefore we may need to play Osman, although like others I would prefer to see him rested and raring to go against Aberdeen on Saturday. I am not sure about having a great desire to do well in this comp, certainly not at he expense of league points, although a decent run would bring in some revenue for new players, so its a bit of a dilema for Archie. Whatever team Archie plays should be better than anything Falkirk can muster, and by no means am I saying they are a bad side, it's just that if we impose ourselves on the game from the start like we did against Kille we will win.

jags on tour Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Can we sign Rory McAllister on loan for a game so we can beat Falkirk? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambies Lost Doo Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 For me GK - Scully give him a run out. Cerzny is our 100% number 1 RB - Miller CH - Hendry although if he's going to Everton then Lindsay CH - Seabourne to help get fitness up LB - Booth DM - Fraser Welsh & Bannigan have knocks DM - Osman AM - Stevenson RW - Amoo CF - Doolan LW - Lawless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GinolasBald Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 I'd be going with: Scully Miller Lindsay Hendry Booth Osman Fraser Amoo Wilson McDaid Pogba/Doolan Archie has said he'll be taking this tournament seriously so I don't see him going with the same team as I. Would be nice to see a couple of the young guys get a chance. Lindsay and Hendry together since they've got a good understanding with each other and are both more than competent to handle Falkirk, like they did with Hamilton. Amoo needs games to build confidence and McDaid certainly did enough in his brief stint on Saturday to merit a start tonight. If Pogba is fit then give him 50-60 minutes to get some match fitness and bring Doolan on when he starts to tire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 If the midfield's weakened then I think McDaid could be preferred to Amoo, tho' I agree the latter needs game time to build confidence. A wee bit of a concern imo is that we need to start Miller and Booth. The lack of cover more or less determines those two play in every game and that's far from ideal. I doubt Archie would risk playing McInally, Penrice or McMullen. Potential definitely there in one player in particular but too early methinks.

lady-isobel-barnett Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Given he's subject of the pre match patter on the official site it looks like Cerny starts. Patter elsewhere has Hendry playing so having your regular keeper behind a still inexperienced centreback makes sense, especially if Lindsay is in the frame for the other slot.

Stewarty Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Would like to see McDaid or Wilson start but I wouldn't want us to make wholesale changes. Looking forward to this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindau Posted August 25, 2015 Report Share Posted August 25, 2015 Time to hit the road. Tomáš Černý, Gary Miller, Daniel Seaborne, Callum Booth, Abdul Osman, David Amoo, Kris Doolan, Ryan Stevenson, Steven Lawless, Jack Hendry, Gary Fraser. Subs: Ryan Scully, Frederic Frans, Liam Lindsay, David Wilson, Declan McDaid, Jordan Leyden, Mathias Pogba. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
