boag1874 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 They need to have a go at us, draw doesn’t help them with so few games left. We need to be switched on but we’ll also get gaps to play in as the game goes on. I think we win it tbh, get it wrapped up first thing then we can relax and look at 70 points as a target to finish strong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger Rudi Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 16 hours ago, Watt-Zeefuik said: What's the point of playing Lembikisa at this point in the season? He's not staying. I agree with this. He was brought in as cover for Atkinson when he was on International duty. I don't think Atkinson is the long-term answer for us especially at RB, but it doesn't help his form when he's in and out the team every week. He's more reliable than Dexter IMHO. As soon as 3rd is wrapped up, I'd rather use Atty and give minutes to a youngster, one of our own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avhudtheteeshirt Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 From what I've seen of them, they are mostly a big punt up the park! If we play 3 at the back in a staying roll we should be able to stop their main weapon. This is the game to get a result, so I take 0-1 for the JT's.

No bottle, pussies, didn’t turn up etc for a team who have shown plenty bottle and resilience this season. Sunday was hugely disappointing but one of the main reasons is we actually did turn up as a team but unfortunately we just lacked a lot in an attacking sense. Think we can question the ability and decision making of some of the players and that has been partly rectified with the pre contract signings, but to question the teams bottle etc seems way over the top. Especially when we are talking about record points totals etc. we’ve lost 1 game outside the old firm in the last 21 games. anyway, think we’ll get a result today. Great post. We've added much needed quality in some areas already. Can't wait to see who else we bring in. Naismith knows where we need further improvements. We had plenty of good attacking possession on Sunday....... A lack of real quality and a cutting edge in the final third (Shankland aside) has been an issue all season.

MTS1874 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 It’ll be a physical battle against a team of giants. We’ve proved already this season we can go there and win so let’s do it again and bring back the 3 points to Tynecastle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really like him as a player, and they play to his strengths. And they have more than just Armstrong outwith that. I dont think their defence is all that tbh (despite decent record).

Even if he does improve in the remaining games it's unlikely that will be enough time for him to convince the club to sign him. The fact we'd have to pay a fee for him makes it even less likely. He may well be a decent player but so far I've really struggled to see what his qualities or strengths are. Genuinely seen zilch. Agreed. I think we only brought him in because it was cheaper than paying for Dhanda in January. Has done nothing to suggest he's going to improve us. In fact quite the opposite. I think I can remember one solitary pass that I thought at the time "wow that was nicely played" . (Down the line at home). The fact that it sticks out says it all. I'm hopeful we will be praising Dhanda and Spittal with far more regularity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really hope to be surprised with a good performance but we still lack real kick up the backside leadership on the park to drag standards up. Our results this season v Killie suggest otherwise and, in any case, the question that popped into my head was:- Who is the 'pussie', a player who plys his trade live in front of 45K+ baying football supporters, or someone who hides behind a keyboard and cannae wait to start a thread name-calling having had a minor melt-down?

Ex member of the SaS Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 (edited) Shit pitch and against a team well up for it . I think we will struggle as most of the players seem to think third is sewn up. ( I too believe it is but they need to play like it's not! ). Mc Innes will want a signature win against us this late in the season to cement fourth so wee need to be well up for this. Win and it's holiday thoughts, lose and it's back to looking over the shoulder. Edited April 27 by Ex member of the SaS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Australis Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Couldn't get themselves up for a semi final. Worried it will be the same today. Hope we don't stand about watching them playing for the first 20 minutes and losing another early goal. A win or draw today JTs and it will be a great result.

Oda be a JT Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 I do fancy us today, players need a performance after last week and for me this is still a big game for us this season so no better time than today.

Theyre fully set up to stop you doing this of course from front to back, but be brave on the ball and get wingers and a 10 behind their midfield, dribbling, 1-2s etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
