Mr Bunny Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 (edited) Quite few doubts for tomorrow and we might be playing quite a different team (though fortunately defence should be OK). Worst case scenario: Fox; O'Donnell, Ballatoni, Archibald, Sinclair; Paton ; Campbell, Bannigan, Erskine; Doolan, Elliot. But I think at least two of the doubtful players will start even if they have to be subbed later. So more likely: Fox; O'Donnell, Ballatoni, Archibald, Sinclair; Paton ; Hutton, Rowson, Erskine; Doolan, Elliot. With Bannigan coming on for Hutton or Rowson if need be. Might even have Cairney on the bench if he's not fit to start. (Or Cairney might play 60 mins and then be subbed with Hutton or Rowson out or on the bench).

Jaggernaut Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 IF we had strikers that look like they could score, we might win. BUT we don't. So....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lennythistle Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 IF we had strikers that look like they could score, we might win. BUT we don't. So....... Thought you were looking forward to the game ? With everyone fit I was thinking this was going to be a tough game. If all those who are doubtful don't make it, we could be in real trouble. In saying that, it could be a chance for Bannigan and possibly Campbell to go out and show what they can do. We really need to start scoring goals again. At the time the Morton hammering was fantastic (even for those of us who only heard the news via texts) but we really have struggled to score on a regular basis since then. We have goal scorers in the team, they are collectively going through a barron spell. It happens but i hope we can come out of it and quickly. Longer day goes, more nervous about tomorrow i'm getting. Still no matter how it turns out, it will be a proud day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

potty trained Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 you'd start stewart ahead of doolan, dargo and that guy fae the star? you weren't at ayr then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Well at the moment(last 5 games) we are averaging a goal a game if you include Culter but also not letting any in. Livi have 10 but again 6 were in the cup and they have conceded 7 in their last 4 league games. So unless we go for a nil nil, there will be goals. I just hope we manage at least one more than Livi. Fox gk Paton cb/dm Balatoni cb Archie cb O'Donnell rwb Sinclair lwb Hutton cm Cairney cm Erskine am Dargo cf Elliot cf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. My teams are those that I think that McNamara will pick. He seems to have a personal favourite in Stewart. I would pick Doolan to start unless he is injured.

stoney jag Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 My preferred team would be if all fit for tomorrow Scott Fox Paul Paton Robertson/Balatoni Archie Aaron Sinclair O,Donnell Hutton Rowser Cairney Erskine - just let him play behind Doolan - up and down we know but best man for the job still IMO Doolan Subs Scully Elliott Robertson/Balatoni Dargo Campbell I would not have Stewart in the 16 nor Bannigan if all are fit Guess however one or two will miss out hence they may figure. But if we 3 points they can Hinchey in goal for all I care! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grimlock Posted December 2, 2011 Report Share Posted December 2, 2011 Always play form players, and as none are currently forwards the wise man would go with 4-5-1:- Fox Paton - Archie - Sinclair - Lindsay Cairney - Hutton - Rowson - O'Donnell - Erskine Doolan Obviously allows the wide men to push forward to make a 3 when pushing forward. Assuming Bannigan won't get many more runs outs after his uncanny imperswonation of the invisible man V Culter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
