Gingerjag Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Due to work commitments The last home game I was able to go to was united on opening day and as it turns out I can make saturday what a coincidence Mon the Jags!!

partickthedog Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Ross Forbes best spell of the season was the first part of the second half of the league game at Tannadice when he inspired a comeback that drew us level. Possible starter on Saturday if Archie judges that his attitude and fitness are up for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhs Posted January 30, 2014 Report Share Posted January 30, 2014 Game is being shown as a delayed transmission on BBC Alba. BBC Alba, 1730 and 2255 on Saturday evening. Handy for those who can't make it to Firhill or those who want to watch it all over again! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simoncordiner Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 I'd like to see us go with an offensive formation, desperate to see Fraser get a run of games, his passing, shooting and drive from that area gives us something extra. Gallacher McMillan Mair Balatoni Sinclair Fraser Bannigan Lawless Higgy Taylor If this is too open then swop Muirhead for Fraser. And if we fall behind, give some decent game time to Doolan and Taylor up front. Need to get support up to Taylor, too often when the midfield sits too deep the gap is too large and gives Taylor too much to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gallacher McMillan Mair Balatoni Sinclair O'Donnell Fraser Bannigan Erskine Taylor Doolan The main change I would make would be to play eleven players. I think this formation will protect our full backs more and provide them with more support when going into attack. Alternatively, sticking with our usual formation: Gallacher McMillan Mair Balatoni Sinclair Fraser Bannigan Higgy Lawless Erskine Taylor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twinny Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Baws, in that case the options are: Craigen in Moncur in and push Bannigan forward Buaben in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simoncordiner Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 "We only need ten men, we only need ten men, we only need ten men.... (sing to fade)" I'll try again, with the new signings; Gallacher McMillan Mair Balatoni Sinclair Bauben Moncur Bannigan Lawless Higgy Taylor What a difference a day makes... time for our first home win of the season.

Paulo Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Tough team selection for tomorrow now! Watch out, possible wave of optimism approaching and we know how dangerous those can be. --------------Gallacher------------- McMillan---Balatoni---Mair----ATS -------Prince------Bannigan------- Craigen-----Doolan------Higgy ---------------Taylor----------- Don't think there's a chance of seeing that forward line. Put Craigen in the middle, add Lawless out wide and that's probably more like what we will see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kni Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 The new signings will have had their medicals and be training with the squad so I'm expecting a line up similar to the one below. Gallacher McMillan Mair Balatoni Taylor-Sinclair Prince Moncur Bannigan Lawless Higginbotham Taylor Subs - Fox, O'Donnell, Muirhead, Fraser, Craigen, Elliot, Doolan, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulo Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 You guys expect Moncur (especially) to go straight in the side at the expense of Muirhead, and even Fraser? I can't see it, not so early. I can see Prince going straight in, due to his experience at this level (and the fact he'd like to get it round his former side).

Gallacher McMillan Mair Balatoni Taylor-Sinclair Prince Moncur Bannigan Lawless Higginbotham Taylor Subs - Fox, O'Donnell, Muirhead, Fraser, Craigen, Elliot, Doolan, Only 3 from last year then. Not sure if he will put Moncur in, he might want to see him more of him before putting him into the team. That might allow for everybody's favourite wee cutie James Craigen to start.

Trotter Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 The new signings will have had their medicals and be training with the squad so I'm expecting a line up similar to the one below. Gallacher McMillan Mair Balatoni Taylor-Sinclair Prince Moncur Bannigan Lawless Higginbotham Taylor Subs - Fox, O'Donnell, Muirhead, Fraser, Craigen, Elliot, Doolan, Not sure both the new boys will play tomorrow. Prince likely to come in for Muirhead in midfield but Craigen will- i'd imagine- keep his place this week. A few more options than yesterday that's for sure. The big thing is Craigen, Higgy and Lawless have to get closer to Taylor thna last week at Paisely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gress Posted January 31, 2014 Report Share Posted January 31, 2014 Bauben had been at Tannadice with Gomis but didn't get offered a contract. Do we still feel the same optimism about the signing ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
