Auld Jag Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 We now have our second game in a row where if we win we go above the opposition.We couldnt manage it last week but imo we need to this week.I know there is still a lot of games to play,but imo the confidence will be down and a win would also move us up the league.Ross County havent scored in over 6hours of football,lets hope they dont break that run on Saturday.

potty trained Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 I would fully expect an unchanged starting 11 barring illness or injury. Hopefully we continue the same attacking mentality from Hamilton, but shore up the defence. Going by the Aberdeen game, County are pretty poor, especially at the back. Hopefully Fox will palm a few shots infront of our strikers too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 John Lambie Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 Amoo for Lawless, maybe Elliott for Gordon, rest the same. Would drop Devine but no-one to come in, Gordon at CB was an even bigger disaster away to Dundee United. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Col Posted October 18, 2016 Report Share Posted October 18, 2016 The 2 lowest scorers in the league. It's got a goal-less draw written all over it. Probably finish 3-3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lady-isobel-barnett Posted October 19, 2016 Report Share Posted October 19, 2016 Hopefully Erskine is OK after Saturday. We need creativity and even tho' Stevie hasn't been providing much the opposition always treat him as a threat. Chris provides that creativity in buckets full but without Lawless he'll be on his own. The problem with Stevie might not simply be all down to poorish form/ his injury. I feel he's been marginalised to an extent being played down the left, a necessity to accommodate Erskine in his central role. Put another way the balance in the team has been a bit iffy. Kinda clutching at straws but at least by not having Lawless available Archie will be able to field a more balanced side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jags on tour Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Archie saying Erskine and Barton a doubt for Saturday but Lawless could either be fit or could be out for 6 weeks depending on what the specialist says today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roque Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 The 2 lowest scorers in the league. It's got a goal-less draw written all over it. Probably finish 3-3. County are the lowest scoring team in the league, but we've scored more than Dundee and the same as Kilmarnock. I also don't think we'll ever have a goalless draw with this defence.

Big Col Posted October 20, 2016 Report Share Posted October 20, 2016 Feck, what is it with us and injuries at the moment. Vital that Erskine is fit! Absolutely right. Without our best player (and top scorer) we'll struggle. Time for some players to grow a pair and step up to the plate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindau Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 Going by Archies interview on Jagzone, he will be giving Erskine up to the last minute to prove his fitness. Looks like it's touch and go. Gave the impression that he expects Barts to be fit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stillresigned Posted October 21, 2016 Report Share Posted October 21, 2016 As County are struggling to score of late (not unlike another team I could think of?) it's almost a given that we'll give man easy goal or two tomorrow. I've got the feeling that tomorrow, although obviously at this stage not decisive, could well prove a pivotal match in our season. Win it, no matter how scrappily and our season is back on track again. Lose it however and it'll not just the cold, dark nights that are drawing in...

clarencegarter Posted October 22, 2016 Report Share Posted October 22, 2016 I'm not sure from the line up if we are going for a back 3 with Lindsay, Devine and Barton. And to give us width going forward put in Elliot who is much better going forward than gordon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonehJags Posted October 22, 2016 Report Share Posted October 22, 2016 Gutted Erskine hasn't made it. Good to see us with 2 upfront although we look as if we lack any creativity in the middle of the park. Also good to see Elliot in for Gordon. Come on Thistle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dick Dastardly Posted October 22, 2016 Report Share Posted October 22, 2016 I also don't think we'll ever have a goalless draw with this defence. So that's todays result nailed then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
