Lindau Posted December 25, 2016 Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 Must be looking for three points here. We are playing well just now,, especially with the mighty Tomas back to full fitness. They aren't half the side they were when Hemmings, Stewart and Harkins terrorised us. We need to start winning at home, especially against teams round about us. 2-0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambies Lost Doo Posted December 25, 2016 Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 Change a winning team or bring back Barton if fully fit? Can't decide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottyDFA Posted December 25, 2016 Report Share Posted December 25, 2016 Winning this game could be a big deal for us. If Killie manage no better than a draw at Tynecastle on Friday (entirely possible), and Ross County manage no better than a draw at Parkhead on Saturday (highly likely), we go 6th in the table if we beat Dundee. Take some confidence from that into the game against Killie on New Year's Eve, and a win puts some cement into the top six placing. With no league action until late January, we'd sit unassailed in the top six for the best part of a month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowenBoys Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 We just need to amass points. If we're anywhere near the top 6 in April, I'll be happy. Until then, one game at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lady-isobel-barnett Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 Change a winning team or bring back Barton if fully fit? Can't decide. With another important fixture coming up 3 days (one day full training) later, I think Archie will change things around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would go with the same team from Friday, but can see why Archie might decide to freshen it up a little Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garscube Road End Posted December 26, 2016 Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 A failure to win this won negates the county win How does it? If we draw it is a point which doesn't negate the win at Dingwall. And if others around us lose then we gain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindau Posted December 26, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 26, 2016 (edited) A failure to win this won negates the county win Utter rubbish, unless we get beat. Think most on here would have grabbed 4 points from the Ross and Dundee games and been happy with that return.

Weebaw1 Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 I am hoping for a great game here. Dundee are one of the most attractive teams in the league and will commit men forward. Although their star attackers have gone Hartley encourages men to get forward and midfielders into the box. They may not be a great team but we should beware of the threat. We should of course play the same way as we have better players especially if Erskine starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 BIG Question for me is do we go back to a 3-5-2 with Barton back sweeping or stick with Friday's team and formation? Need to defend well at set pieces as O'Hara is a threat from them for the Dees. Hopefully our own set piece threat Liam Lindsay can add to his goal tally. We're due something at home against Dundee so fingers crossed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're due something at home against Dundee so fingers crossed. They had no answer to the 3-5-2 at Dens but I suspect they'd be better prepared to deal with it this time. If Barton's fully fit I feel he's too good a player to not be starting. Then again I reckon Archie will be looking ahead to the Killie match in terms of getting the most out of the players over the two games. In short I feel Archie may look more to his freshest players and then determine the formation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaila Street Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 Any reason why this is at 7.45 on a Wednesday night as opposed to today at 3.00? Aberdeen got 13k at their match today I see. The Xmas fixture list devised this year is a true nonsense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggernaut Posted December 27, 2016 Report Share Posted December 27, 2016 Presumably the two teams involved requested an afternoon kick-off, but for one reason or another we and/or Dundee didnae. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
