Dick Dastardly Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 Can't see any reason for changing anything, other than the keeper. I think that Scully might just get the nod, if he doesn't, then what is the point of having him in the squad. So I would go for ..............................Scully Muirhead.....Balatoni.....Archibald.....Sinclair ..............Paton.................Forbes ......O'Donnell.........Erskine..........Lawless ..............................Doolan Smith Bannigan Elliot Murray McGuigan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kni Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 Smith's comments in the Evening Times suggest that he is not fully fit so Scully should start. There is no point in risking Bannigan after 2 days training. Your selection looks right to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fearchar Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 However, the team on Saturday was picked assuming that Dunfermline Athletic would try to attack, but Hamilton Accies are more likely to adopt the Falkirk approach. That may justify a different approach, perhaps with three up front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G SUS Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 I'd pick the exact same outfield team, in the exact same positions. We are going out to attack, like we did v Dunfermline, so why change it? Scully in goals for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are going out to attack, like we did v Dunfermline, so why change it? Scully in goals for me. Would think so. Don't believe with three centre backs we need both Murray & Rowson on the bench so maybe Bannigan will replace Rowser. Glad Alex Neil suspended tho' they did beat Morton without him. I thought without him we'd have won the League cup game in Sept. According to my Accies mate May is now playing well (scored 4 out of their last 6 goals), Wouldn't be surprised to see him man marked.

Mr Bunny Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 (edited) However, the team on Saturday was picked assuming that Dunfermline Athletic would try to attack, but Hamilton Accies are more likely to adopt the Falkirk approach. That may justify a different approach, perhaps with three up front. If a team is going to sit back defend then 3 up front won't necessarily help as they can be easily marked. Our usual 1-up-front but with three attacking midfielders who can easily swap positions and be effective wherever they play is more dangerous as defenders find it more difficult to decide who to pick up. And I'd expect Forbes to come forward sometimes and have a pot from distance. Edited November 16, 2012 by Mr Bunny Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little_miss_jag Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 according to thistle Twitter we have clearance for smith so Smith over Scully for me. This is a team going for promotion we need someone on goals who has exp of 1st team football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1 John Lambie Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 Same team, I'd play Scully but looks cert that Smith will get the nod, hope it works out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davie Thistle Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 ................I'm sure whoevas in goals will perform to the besta their ability! as long as J/M plays the same team as last week, we will/should! have no problems see'in them aff!! 2.0 tae the fitba team!

Lord Rosebury Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 -----------------Smith Muirhead-----Balatoni-----Archie------Sinclair O'Donnell-----Paton-----Forbes---------Lawless --------------Erskine --------------Doolan I think he'll go same team as sat with the obvious exception of keeper. Hamilton will probably sit back and defend deep so 442 to add more width to help stretch and draw them out. McGuigan will give us an option to be more direct if it's not working out.

That decision will destroy Scully's self-confidence. I would not be surprised if he and Rowson are allowed to leave in January. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spanish Jag Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 That decision will destroy Scully's self-confidence. I would not be surprised if he and Rowson are allowed to leave in January. In fact he will be annoyed to have seen Smith scoring an og. 1-0 Accies according to the videoprinter.

jagfox Posted November 17, 2012 Report Share Posted November 17, 2012 Supposedly, Scully was injured in the warm-up. Small comfort with the doubts about Scully. Has anyone got David Klein's number? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
