Ton4life 97 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 A win here and we can focus on getting in shape to play in the championship next year. Might continue with Oliver who while not on my favourites list showed I intelligence in holding up play and bringing midfield people into the game on Weds. What's the update on Kyle Jacob's missed why he has not been around or playing. Link to post Share on other sites
TONofmemories 1623 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 He had a slight set-back last week whilst returning from injury. Hopefully not too far away. Must win game this. 1 TIME FOR CHANGE! Link to post Share on other sites
BishopBrennan 804 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 I'd be lining up; McAdams Ledger Fjortoft McGinty Strapp McAlister Lyon McGuffie Nesbitt Colville Oliver Just after the Inverness game I was advocating Salkeld to replace McGuffie, but I'm starting to favour McGuffie starting and getting his chance. The ball stuck a lot better in the forward areas on Wednesday, so Oliver should definitely be starting. It's just a case of altering the supply we're giving him and trying to get the ball into his feet more, so he can turn defenders and draw fouls. Blues might feel aggrieved to be dropped, but one (albeit excellent) lung bursting run and finish doesn't mitigate us being overrun in midfield for large spells of the game. It's too important a game to simply hope Blues can deliver. McGinty was absolutely stinking on Wednesday night, but I think given his performances this season he's earned the right to play his way back into form. I'd be looking to use Colville as something resembling an inside forward in this one and allow Strapp to provide the attacking width on the left. I'm looking for Nesbitt, after a very quiet and ineffective performance on Wednesday and a few sitters missed in recent weeks, to deliver a big performance. I'd like to think Morton could nick this by the odd goal, but a 0-0 slogfest wouldn't surprise me. 1 You address me by my proper title, you little bollocks! Link to post Share on other sites

Boogs49 6 Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 Arbroath have signed striker Jack Hamilton on loan from Livingston, goes straight into squad to face us tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites
dunning1874 1532 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Millar and Blues with McAlister and Lyon still out the team?! Brian Wake my Lord, Brian Wake Brian Wake my Lord, Brian Wake Brian Wake my Lord, Brian Wake Oh Lord, Brian Wake Link to post Share on other sites
Pedrodelawasp 132 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Millar was fairly effective in calming things down in the midfield when he came on against Inverness and allowed us to retain possession for more than 10 seconds at a time. Lyon also made a difference when he came on, and generally offers more drive forward than Millar. I’d have thought he’d start alongside Blues. There’s less incentive to give Jim a run out with no crowd there to applaud him on or off the park. Hopefully a testimonial can be arranged for him post lockdown. Link to post Share on other sites

Stevie Aitken's Love Child 196 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 (edited) I never want to see a game against Arbroath ever again. Every game between us over the last 2 seasons has been eye bleedingly bad. Edited January 30 by Stevie Aitken's Love Child Link to post Share on other sites
TONofmemories 1623 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 Reckon we'll win this, if and when we ring the changes and get Lyon and Colville on.. TIME FOR CHANGE! Link to post Share on other sites

AyrshireTon 456 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 I don’t recall Linn having a “great career” down here. 2 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. Link to post Share on other sites

dunning1874 1532 Posted January 30 Share Posted January 30 That's a tremendous clearance from McLean, but as good a cross as it was it was too easy. McGuffie needs to be putting pressure on the ball rather than standing off.
