Havana Saint Posted October 22, 2017 Report Share Posted October 22, 2017 A pivotal game in our season. We must start with a good tempo and be brave. Creativity and shooting a must. Let's get right behind the boys. COYS! PauloPerth 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gas Monkey Posted October 22, 2017 Report Share Posted October 22, 2017 Surely Hendry deserves an opportunity ahead of Denny J? Can't be worse and offers something different? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy Posted October 22, 2017 Report Share Posted October 22, 2017 Clark Comrie - Gordon - Shaughnessy - Easton Davidson - Craig Wotherspoon - Scougall - O'Halloran MacLean Be harsh as **** on Mannus who has done absolutely nothing wrong, but I've just this horrible feeling he's verging on a huge error. Probably based on the mental spell at the end of the game yesterday where he sclaffed three clearances, took a heavy touch with a striker right on his toes, and sprinted thirty yards to tackle Kyle Lafferty for absolutely no reason all within about ten minutes. Defence was as good as it's been this season, seems unnecessary to change it tbh, Gordon was physically more imposing than Anderson and seems more comfortable in possession too. Can't see Millar managing two ninety minutes so close, and we'll need Muzz in there to combat Draper. Their other midfielder is likely to be O'Brien or Lindsay, who'd run rings around Paton. Craig can at least sprint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tucker Posted October 22, 2017 Report Share Posted October 22, 2017 Going to miss the game hope fans give Owen warm welcoming the man who started the good times of recent years, saints have been very lucky the last few manager's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig can at least sprint. I like that team.BUT it will not happen. Tommy will bring Foster and Anderson straight back in and he won't drop Manus at this stage I wouldn't be surprised if Alston starts Edited October 22, 2017 by THE LARK SAINT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radford 72 Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 Not a straightforward team selection for the manager now he has a fully fit and available squad to pick from. Does he keep faith with Comrie and Gordon, can Millar start another game and does he go with one or two strikers? He probably needs to get the right answers to those questions if Saints want a positive result, such is the nature of this league. We defended more like ourselves on Saturday and although we've come up short in the attacking areas, I liked the way we pressed against both Rangers and Hearts. Taking that intensity into games like the one tomorrow has been an issue in recent seasons though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McCarry One Nil Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 TW saying Liam Gordon doubtful after his head and shoulder knocks on Saturday which is a shame - would like to have seen him get an extended run in the team Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Radford 72 Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 Foster is also still injured despite being clear of his ban. Real chance for Comrie to put down a marker. He's done fine in his games up until now but a good performance tomorrow and Foster will surely have to bide his time.

The ghost of Jim Morton Posted October 23, 2017 Report Share Posted October 23, 2017 whoever scores first in this game wins it. Lets hope it's us. Still not sure where a goal is coming from though. We just look devoid of ideas in the final 3rd. Something has to change though. Senior pros need to stand up and be counted. We need to take some shots, we need to run with the ball and most of all we need to try playing fitba on the deck.. We really could do with a win in this one as the next few fixtures are hardly easy ones. I would happily take a scrappy 1-0 with an OG .. I remain fearful though. I hope Tommy goes for it full throttle but suspect it will be another cagey shitefest Broggy Man and Callum Mcdonald 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broon Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Personally I'd go: Mannus Comrie Gordon Joe Easton Millar Davidson Scougall Maclean O'Halloran Cummins --------------------------- If Foster is fit I'd probably bring him back in for Comrie. Other than that I Can see Tommy going with Maclean top and Spoony in behind with him, Scougall and Mikey all swapping around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy rhodes fancy watch Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 **** Foster. Comrie deserves to be playing for 2 reasons. 1. He's about the same level of player as Foster 2. He doesn't fight with doors or team mates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 **** Foster. Comrie deserves to be playing for 2 reasons. 1. He's about the same level of player as Foster 2. He doesn't fight with doors or team mates. Foster was most peoples player of the year last season. I know he's utterly unlikeable and has had a poor start to the season, but he's a better player than Comrie. In saying that I'm not adverse to the idea of Comrie being first choice, as potentially he could be better than Foster. tucker 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 I think Comrie has earned the right to start until his form dips or he gets injured. Foster hasn't had a particularly good start to the season and he acted like an arse (again) at Dens. He can take a seat on the bench if he is fit.

Totally agree how quickly fans turn on a very decent player that are out of form,alot of players not performing,but foster and Anderson seem to be the Scape goats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Ferg Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Very simple for tonight! TEMPO just get ripped right into them! If fit Gordon must start. Comrie is the man in possession at right back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Bonham Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Perthsaint1977 on P&B suggesting that "tinkerman Tommy is at it again", doesn't sound particularly promising, to me. Denny Johnstone to start then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might be worth a try at left back though as I don't fancy Tanser. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy Posted October 24, 2017 Report Share Posted October 24, 2017 Surprised he dropped Mannus, tbh. Not much argument elsewhere tbh, intrigued to see if it's 4-4-2 with MOH up top, or of its 4-2-3-1 and how the "3" are set up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
