Geoff Kilpatrick Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Gordon - 6 - Not at fault for the goals Smith - 4 - Poor defending contributed to two goals Kingsley - 5 - Tangled up with Smith giving them a free header. Not his best game Sibbick - 4 - Cannot start next week Haring - 7 - MoM. Peach of a finish Cochrane - 6 - Probably our best defender in a shocking defensive performance. Still can't cross the road though McKay - 6 - Not his day but still the only player who looked capable of creating something Devlin - 4 - One good tackle amongst a constant giveaway of possession Simms - 5 - At least he looked like he cared Boyce - 2 - We need him next week. Fingers crossed Mackay-Steven - 4 - Hopefully his last appearance in maroon Subs: Ginnelly - 4 - Poor Atkinson - 4 - Will start next week Souttar - 2 - Meh Halliday - 2 - Meh Halkett - 1 - Training exercise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RustyRightPeg Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 (edited) Boring thread. Objective was to get through the game giving minutes to those who needed them with no injuries which obviously excluding Boyce worked. Neilson made that pretty clear pre match. Dead rubber move on.

I don’t I’m afraid Do I believe that having a crowd that’s in to the game knowing it’s a cup final rather than sitting in silence knowing it’s a dead rubber will help? Yes. Do I believe that these players have been nursing themselves through the last 3 games to ensure they make it to the cup final? Yes. In short yes I do.

Dead rubber move on. 👏👏 only thing I’d maybe disagree about is Boyce, again far too slow in thinking what to do when he receives the ball. Few big decisions for the management to make next week as I think this game is coming a few weeks to soon for a few out there today. Maybe fit bit rusty and not match fit. Hopefully one big game left from a few tired legs 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that his firm has been questionable over the last few weeks but he does still have something about him that’s a bit of an X factor. Big decisions, big week but good decisions to be made.

Lone Striker Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 No need to give points ratings in a match like this - however it should be a matter of concern for Robbie and the players how much better Rangers youngsters were at passing & moving forward than we were. If this is what having a colts team playing every week does to prepare your youngsters for 1st team football, we definitely need one too. Hate to say it, but they had some right good young players today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Debut 4 Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 You can pose the question whether we have enough players who’ve got the bottle for next week and who can find more courage in the heat of a cup final…. If we are to believe the last few games has been about measured performances because we are going to turn up next week and be an animal…. Let’s see it then.

McCrae Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 (edited) I thought today was useful. Souttar, Halkett, and Devlin got some valuable playing time before the final. GMS did not do enough to merit a start next week. Sibbick did fine when playing centre half. Smith is off the pace and a bench place for him. Atkinson another weak game…bench for him. Can see us playing 4 4 2 next week. Edited May 14 by McCrae Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
