Cagey Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 After a slow start I thought Rooney did well & carried on after his legs had gone. Can't see his muscles being recovered for Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 Actually surprised we scored 3 out of 5 pens. Its not been our strong point in recent seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wondering the same, but tonight’s game was played at an incredible tempo. Melamed maybe hasn’t played much since March. Best to be careful with him, hopefully see him play at Peterhead Shaggy Jenkins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBored Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 While we look good on the ball and the central two in midfield looked very comfortable...its all a bit 'safe'. If all we create in a game is two or three decent chances then we are going to struggle as its going to take our front lot a lot more chances than that to score. Thought Hendry showed some very good touches in the second half, but the bit he is there to do...he fluffs. Kane...the only chance I can remember, he falls down...which isn't the first time. I wonder when we will see Guy. Peterhead's an artificial turf is it not? If so, doubt it will be Saturday some how. Good points...Rooney showed a lot of running power and was generally fairly decent with his passing. Two in midfield were good with ball at their feet, although they did play a lot of passes backwards. May and to an extent MOH looked in good form when they came on. Resigned myself to us losing the pen shoot out...some pretty poor pens (May & Conway) although Tanser's was a decent save. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOODLUM65 Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 Thought that any encouragement that Arabs got was due to our sloppy defending at times. Zander is not happy with pass backs to his feet. Play was excellent up to the passes in the box. Shooting was awful. Macca, look out your boots. Onwards to Sat. p.s. Utd. look very defensive.

Cagey Posted November 10, 2020 Report Share Posted November 10, 2020 Leagues showing us United & Peterhead all on 7 points. Surely United & Peterhead should be on 8 with their bonus point. Hope it doesn't go to pens on Saturday as they scored 5 tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair enough but quite apart from that what effect do the penalty shoot outs have? Us the Arabs and the Blue Toon all have 7 points but the other 2 have won penalty shoot outs, do they count for nothing? If we draw and win the shoot out would we win the mini league thanks to our 7 - 0 tanking of Brechin? But if we lose the shoot out what happens then?

THE LARK SAINT Posted November 11, 2020 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 Dundee Utd and Peterhead have 8 points and Saints 7 Utd have played 4 games Saints and utd 3 games Saints win the group with a 90 min win (10 points)either with an outright win or penalty win (9 points) However a penalty win for Peterhead puts them on 10 points wins them the group.

Johnny B Posted November 11, 2020 Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 If we cannot beat Peterhead (div 1 side) we do not deserve to progress. As for the penalties disgraceful. The odds were it was going to be a draw and if this the best we have after practicing all week we are in trouble. We were very fortunate to score 3. Scoring has been our biggest problem all season and it is no different from 12 yards. But having said all that 0v3 on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a hand on one but that was it. Hendry should have had that game wrapped up for us long before penalties though. Johnny B 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cagey Posted November 11, 2020 Report Share Posted November 11, 2020 ACH well another clean sheet. A few guys got a run out. None of them let themselves down. Not easy to fit into a team or system right away & Booth & Rooney took time to settle but did ok. In retrospect we probably should have played our strongest team but suppose we have to give these guys game time for the good of the rest of the season. Funny old game ,last season Hendry couldn't miss. This season he can't get near the target. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
