thebiglemon Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 Can we do something about our frankly dire record at Fir Park?? Anyone going to this probably needs professional help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elevenone Posted February 1, 2018 Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 (edited) absolutely, had the privilege of attending our last win there a long time ago and have had a lot of disappointments since however never felt more confident, practically full sqaud at our disposal and Motherwell weakened since our last meeting when we overan them first half. Another 3-1 away win Edited February 1, 2018 by elevenone 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebiglemon Posted February 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2018 I think they overran themselves in the 1st half last time, but at Firhill we do well and are powderpuff at their place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lambies Lost Doo Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Back to 3 at the back to deal with their more aggressive tactics? Having our wing backs competing helps us be more attacking with this and Barton as sweeper can bring ball out while having defensive cover.

Motherwell dismantled that formation last time at Fir park quite easily - different and better personnel for us tomorrow though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only change maybe Erskine who is not fit - put Edwards on from the start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lady-isobel-barnett Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Gotta feeling Woods will start again and Abdul almost certainly so three at the back would be overkill. Share eljaggo's concern re Erskine and if he starts he'll have to be a bit fitter than last week. He was tho' very effective during the first 15-20 mins.

stillresigned Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 I hope I am not like so many times before not tempting fate, but after last week's performance I am unusually optimistic about this game. So much so that I will miss Scotland's hopefully successful start to the Six Nations tomorrow to cheer on Thistle at Fir Park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonehJags Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 If Erskine is not fit to start then Spital is a better replacement than Edwards, however it will be difficult for Archie to leave the latter out after his contribution last week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CotterJag Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 I find Motherwell an extremely dirty team. They showed against Hibs midweek that they're still doing that dangerous shove on a player who jumps for a header. The ref caught on towards the end. They should be hammered for that. Anyway, more of the same Jags. Quick passing to the runners and some good cut backs to the striker. 3-2 Thistle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wull Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 (edited) Can we do something about our frankly dire record at Fir Park?? Anyone going to this probably needs professional help. I remember at fir park when wee Colin McGlashin out jumped the giant dutch keeper seib dijkstra and we won 3-2, afer been 2nil down. Think Willie Jamieson and Ian Cammeron also scored that day.

Think Willie Jamieson and Ian Cammeron also scored that day. Was there too. The opening of the Motorolla Stand I think. Massive Jags support. A great game. Think Lambie changed things around second half and Davie Irons had a stormer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auld Jag Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 I would start with the same team as last week except for Spittal in for Erskine if Erskine isn't fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Erskine was played thru the middle. Far from certain Spittal should be deployed there. Could of course play Blair out right and play Wee Stevie central. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stillresigned Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Erskine was played thru the middle. Far from certain Spittal should be deployed there. Could of course play Blair out right and play Wee Stevie central. I'm afraid my view on Spittal is like so many players in Scotland he flatters to deceive. I frankly wouldn't trust himin that position. Would love to be proved wrong though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auld Jag Posted February 2, 2018 Report Share Posted February 2, 2018 Spittal can be a bit in and out of a game,but I feel his direct free kicks in particular can be very good,in fact if my memory is correct it was one of his free kicks that got us started at Firhill against Motherwell.Also feel Storey could be an important player,read after the Hibs game that the Motherwell defence couldn't cope with Boyles pace.

Blackpool Jags Posted February 3, 2018 Report Share Posted February 3, 2018 We got the 'no away win so far this season' monkey off our backs last week. Tomorrow, I fully expect us to lay the 'not beaten Well at their midden for ages' ghost to rest. Great for Archie to have so many fit players to choose from again. Mon Thistle, let's get the job done. Up the table we go. Jags r us. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Murray Posted February 3, 2018 Report Share Posted February 3, 2018 Could go to 3 at the back to deal with Ciftci. He will no doubt try to bully our backline. We should be far better at picking up the second ball with Woods and Osman in Midfield than last time at Firpark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandy Posted February 3, 2018 Report Share Posted February 3, 2018 I think we will crack out a good result today - come on the Jags Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted February 3, 2018 Report Share Posted February 3, 2018 I love this optimism, and am trying to reign it in myself. Just leaving to travel to m'well by car, hope it's better on the road than last time. Mon jags in about them from the start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
