Mr.Blue Posted March 14, 2010 Share Posted March 14, 2010 A must win game for us. Would like to see us line up in an attacking 4-3-3 formation. If Greacen is out it I reckon its time for McManus to get the boots back on as he played well alongside Dom last season. Cuthbert Reid Shimmin McManus Mckinlay Masterton Jenkins Tidser Russell Weatherson Simmonds fingers crossed a win by the odd goal for the ton There's a storm on the horizon And for that I can't see the sun For I'll keep a waiting on the pavement For the ice cream van to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

michigan_ton Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Airdrie are absolutely rotten, there's no way we won't win this. Famous last words?

Dom_Dom Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 A must win and I can see it turning out well. 2-0. : ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmy boag delivers Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 We're 4/5 for the win and it's 5/2 for the draw and an Airdrie win. Must be the first time in yonks the bookies have us down as favourites for a match! A win will get some much needed confidence back and should Ayr lose we will also be back in 8th spot. Either way a win tonight before the Thistle match is a good platform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Aitken's Love Child Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 As others have said, it's a must win. Lose this one and I don't think we would have the characters in the squad to bounce back from it, while at the same time the boost it would give Airdrie would be huge. I would suggest that if we lose this one we might even finish bottom, let alone 9th. However, I don't expect us to lose. I would expect Grady to go back to 4-4-2 again after Saturday's stuffy performance while playing 5 across the middle, and with Airdrie expected to play one up top I would expect it to work out. It would require the midfield to play a high line and press the Airdrie midfield and defence, who have looked pretty decent at keeping the ball over the last season or so.; I would bring Finlayson back into the team personally as he brings width there that Masterton does not, and with the midfield expected to be crowded we will need that. Urge Kev and Jim to hug the touchlines and get early crosses into the box as often as possible, something Peter Weatherson should thrive on when, as expected, he returns to the starting 11. In defence, I've seen it written that Greacen will be available for Wednesday then out again for Saturday, so he would come in for MacGregor, and if Shimmin makes it, we would be at full strength at the back. Not sure how McKinlay did at the weekend as I've not seen him in a Morton shirt yet, so there could be decisions to be made at full back. Anyway, 2-0 predicted. Weatherson and McGuffie with the goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cornbeef Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 I expect a win also but mindful of the fact that they are battling away for survival. They drew the last two matches (Ayr and Dunfermline) and have previously drawn with ICT and beaten Dundee. So , capable of occasional shocks. But not this time. Also Maccaboy, is the game not on Wednesday ? (hope you can make it ) Show Racism the Red Card Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

garymcc1874 Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 Drop Jenkins and don't try to accomodate 3 central midfielders in a 4 man midfield and we may sneak a 1-0 win. Otherwise 0-0 bore draw. Can't wait .. I'm not MacFarlane's biggest fan but I don't get why he isn't playing especially now we know Paartalu's off at the end of the season. I'd like to see Macfarlane and Tidser in the middle. Finlayson and McAlister/McKinlay on the wings. TTG JIM!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
