thornwoodjag Posted October 18, 2023 Report Share Posted October 18, 2023 Just noticed we are playing Ayr on Halloween night. Has that always been in the fixture list ? Don’t remember seeing it. Is it a rearranged fixture from later in season ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t remember seeing it. Is it a rearranged fixture from later in season ? Always been there. Arbroath played Queens Park a number of weeks ago when they both had a free Saturday. Think that game might have been brought forward from Halloween. We now have 2 games rearranged for BBC Scotland Raith Rovers now 8th December and Dundee Utd 29th December, both away.

CotterJag Posted October 18, 2023 Report Share Posted October 18, 2023 Is there any chance of a rearranged game for Friday 17th or Saturday 18th November? I'm in Glasgow for that whole weekend and was hoping for a game, as we're out of the lower league cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we can field McMillan and Milne at fullback to blow out the winger who gave us some problems during the first half at Ayr in the last game......Logan Chakmers?

Don’t know bud, but it’s certainly a possibility after the two of them went off on Friday. Ngwenya certainly looked injured. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partickthedog Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 Who is fit to play? KD says Ngwenya, Fitzpatrick and McMillan unavailable (though latter two back in training) but is Milne fit? McKenzie at RB again I suppose. At least Aero will be back to stiffen the back line. If Milne isn't fit we might have to play Williams at RB and McKenzie at LB. Hope to all the gods Milne makes it. The above was actually Mr Bunny's post in the Scottish Cup draw thread, but as it went down the wrong burrow I have re-posted it here. In answer to Mr B's point about what we do if Milne is not fit and McKenzie has to be re-assigned to LB, then I would prefer to see Aero at RB with Williams at centre back. Williams was uncomfortable at RB v Raith Rovers and apart from 10 minutes of shakiness was OK v Queens Park at centre back and hopefully has developed some understanding with Neilson. Aero is a competent RB and could perhaps unleash some long throws as well! Having said all that, I hope Milne makes it. His injury on Friday did not look too serious.

partickthedog Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 If we are a few players short, I would like to see James Lyon make an appearance. He has not let us down yet, and I always feel that there is much more chance of him scoring as compared to many of our midfielders (the only exception perhaps being McInroy).

Doolan's preview said Ngwenya is out, as well as Fitzpatrick and McMillan (though latter two back training - bench maybe?). Didn't mention Milne so there's hope, though I seem to remember him limping off on Friday. Hope Milne at least is back. At least Aero will be back.

Jimmy McD Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 I watched the Clyde game and our Ji Stevenson was playing for them, what a shift the youngster put in, we could do with him just now.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juanito Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 Did we not sign a left back/left centre back from Motherwell a couple of weeks ago, can he not play? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 I wonder with our current absentees, there is an argument to play three at the back and utilise the energy of McKenzie and Milne as wing-backs? Would then be McInroy/ Lawless, Bannigan and Stanway in the middle with Tomi and Brian Graham up top. Might not be pretty but could be effective? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarciaBlaine Posted October 31, 2023 Report Share Posted October 31, 2023 Suspect Doolan was being a little coy with his injury updates. I'm expecting another one or two to be unavailable. Would also like to see Lyon playing in a 3 with Stanway and McInroy sitting deeper. The latter should never play on the wing again after QP but has a lot more threat when central.
