Obviously Blaney will be available as his official transfer goes through on the 1st, nice to see that he's been training with us for a few weeks though. We performed well against Livi earlier in the season they never got a sniff and we were guilty of passing up numerous chances before the ref threw us a lifeline. The game will certainly not be a classic on that pitch but hopefully we can take home the badly needed three points. Suspensions kick in 2 weeks after the sixth yellow card.

gee Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 Is Maguire not worth a start in the 6 position? He’s certainly big and mobile, hasn’t featured much under Hammell. Shields needs to be dropped at Livingston. For Tierney maybe or move Spittal into front 3 and Cornelius in midfield. Anyone know how David Devine is doing out on loan? Is it likely he could feature for us second half of the season? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Grew Posted December 31, 2022 Report Share Posted December 31, 2022 Found this factually correct but laughable comment on the official website: “Steven Hammell’s side currently occupy 10th in the table however are only eight points off fourth.” 🤣🤣🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kmcalpin Posted January 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2023 Whilst a win would be very welcome, I'd say that this is a must not lose game. A draw would be a decent result. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grizzlyg Posted January 2, 2023 Report Share Posted January 2, 2023 Delighted to see Cornelius start but shields starting ahead of McKinstry and megaphone Sol back doesn't fill me with confidence but here's hoping we can dig out a huge victory today....COYW 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGinn is a far superior player. Cornelius (who I rate highly as a centre mid) and Shields starting on the wings highlight everything that's wrong with us at the moment, really need some quality additions in the forward department this window. I have said many a time that I don't think we will be in relegation trouble this season, we have just enough about us to steer clear, but the difference between fighting for top six and labouring to 9th place will be determined by getting some quality in this month.

steelman1991 Posted January 2, 2023 Report Share Posted January 2, 2023 Shields must be a fuckin world beater in training. Either that or he has incriminating photos of Hammell and Kerr ffs 🤦♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Well-Made Posted January 2, 2023 Report Share Posted January 2, 2023 Going by previous teams, I think Spittal will play on the wing. So still our normal 433 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJC Posted January 2, 2023 Report Share Posted January 2, 2023 This has all the makings of a hard slog and an utter shitfest but if we are to avoid relegation then games like these are the types we need to win or at the very least not lose. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MelvinBragg Posted January 2, 2023 Report Share Posted January 2, 2023 Indicative of how bad things are that I looked at that lineup and thought "that's shite" and then looked at the other options and realised there wasn't much else to improve it.. Grim and I expect a heavy defeat, hope I'm wrong obviously... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
