RyanTON Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Going by Ray’s latest interview we have 7 players missing for this one: Strapp, Waddell, Buchanan, Millar, Telfer, Thomson & Johnston. Going to be a few youngsters in the starting XI for this one and a very weak bench. Very worrying as the first game of the league season is just over a week away. Still think we’ll have enough to win the game though 2-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRVMP Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 I remember last time we played Rovers with a small, injured, pre-season squad, it went BRILLIANTLY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madton Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Something like this perhaps; Scully Tumilty Kilday Iredale Maclean McAlister Thomson Tidser Mchugh Bell Oliver Not really bothered about the result now, just no more feckin injuries! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted July 26, 2018 Share Posted July 26, 2018 Think I’ll be giving this one a miss. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyrshireTon Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Pitch should be a bit less solid. McGhee needs some support, there's no-one backing him up. Hayes playing it forward, Bell being forced to do it all alone, now forward from Marr, here's Ritchie, still Andy Ritchie, look at the control... That is a marvellous goal from Andy Ritchie. Twenty minutes on the clock and Morton's supporters come alive. A goal which epitomises the control, the arrogance, the cheek of Andy Ritchie.

Mr Toon Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I'd like to see Gaston getting a start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodEmperorGunning Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Something like this perhaps; Scully Tumilty Kilday Iredale Maclean McAlister Thomson Tidser Mchugh Bell Oliver Not really bothered about the result now, just no more feckin injuries! Thomson isn’t fit nor will he be for a while. And playing Tumilty in a back three sounds like a Duffy tombola move. Otherwise I’d be happy with supplementing those positions with a couple youngsters and just getting this nonevent over with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Toon Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Kyle Thomson. No international clearance yet as reported yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Toon Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I see. That's taking a while, is it not? Yes, it seems like one of these 'How long is a piece of string?' processes rather than something more predictable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiGi Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 I don't think I'm going to bother either. An expensive lesson for the club. They'll be lucky to get 600 there today.

If they're willing to cancel a friendly that would bring in a bit of money so the team is ready for the league I'm sure they won't mind about a cup they've openly said is being used mainly for pre season.

Malt Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 This is a pretty searson game. Let's get the new lad some game time and if we can give some youth a run or people lacking fitness then perfect game. First game of season where it counts.

It's a major cup competition that probably made us our only profitable season in the last 20 and we've been papped out before the last group games are even played 2 years running. It's an utter waste. Peter Weatherson is the greatest player since Ritchie, and should be assigned 'chairman for life' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah meant Kyle, not Robert but as he still doesn't have clearance, that idea is out the window! As for Tumilty, absolute is a duff type move but if Waddell and Buchanan are out and iredale can't move in because Strapp is out, I don't see another option, unless he plays Tidser at left back again! Difference is Duff did that type of move in competitive games, when other options were available! As you say, its a non event, so wouldnt be bothered in the slightest if Tumilty was used as a temp centre half or indeed Tids at left back. If there are a couple of dev players available in those positions, then yeah throw them in. As long as we come through this with no more injuries and Telfer, Millar, Waddell etc are fit for next week, that's all that matters! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoodless Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 Is it still £2 dearer to by a ticket at Sinclair St just before the game? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
