stillresigned Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Hopefully, Saturday will see all eyes fixed firmly where they should be on Firhill Park. This mob have been due a real doing from us since we came back up. Am I wrong in saying we haven't beaten them once since our return? Hopefully we'll do so on Saturday!

angry gaz Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 How is the injury news for Freddie and Liam. Are Sebo and Booth both out too? Might struggle to put a back four out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Willjag Posted April 18, 2016 Members Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Booth is definitely out suspended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 How is the injury news for Freddie and Liam. Are Sebo and Booth both out too? Might struggle to put a back four out. No idea if Cerny is still out as well. Liam was on the bench at Dingwall so i guess he'll be fit. Actually I'd have been tempted to play Lindsay ahead of Seaborne anyway. Booth also being suspended is the bigger headache. I think Elliott will be played at left back if only to counter Stewart cutting inside. Young Penrice, who looks a prospect, is still I imagine way off getting a start tho' he might make the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lindau Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 If Cerny joins Calum and Dan on the sidelines sadly I can only see one outcome......hope I am wrong though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambies Lost Doo Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 What happened to the young left back who started last season v Dundee United at home when we were going through a mini injury crisis. Balatoni was great that game coaching the defence through it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weebaw1 Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 No need to panic. Christy will do fine at lb and any 2 from 4 centre backs are fine. With magical muzzy making mayhem down the right we should give them some problems. But for gods sake watch that right winger with the great left foot!

ChewinGumMacaroonBaaaz Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 For me it's all "must wins" till the finish... We're 9 points off killie with 15 to play for. 6 clear and 12 and bums start getting squeaky! Mon eh Jags!.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeanieD Posted April 19, 2016 Report Share Posted April 19, 2016 Have to laugh at this absurd league split and the home and away game discrepancies it throws up. Dundee should be raging at having 3 visits to Firhill........but given their recent record there I imagine they might be secretly delighted. A win for either side will guarantee survival, barring miracles, so another win for them is on the cards, or perhaps not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firhillista Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 (edited) When Dumbaya first arrived I'm sure I read that he had played at left back on occasions in the past. A defence of Miller, Frans, Lindsay and Dumbaya would be okay, I think. We could even drop Elliot into one of the full back positions if either Frans or Lindsay was unavailable and it would still be an okay defence. More to the point, which Dundee is going to turn up? If it's the one that appeared last time with Harkins in the mood to remind us how good he is, then it could be a long afternoon. On the other hand, if they come down lacking a bit of focus and our lot are up for it... who knows....

lady-isobel-barnett Posted April 20, 2016 Report Share Posted April 20, 2016 Dundee (along with their neighbours) have shipped the most away goals. Alas our home tally is barely at a goal a game. If both teams play to type another draw appears not to be too unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Dastardly Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 Calling this a "must win" is a bit over-hype. TBH I'm a bit flat after Ross and not terribly bothered by the rest of the season. We're not going to get relegated and nothing much to fight for, although lose the next 3 and other results go the wrong way and I might get more interested. A 0-0 would suite both sides, so I suspect that is what we will get. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenziejag Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 On the other hand, with no real pressure the players just might go out and give the fans a treat 4-4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auld Jag Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 IMO we still have plenty to play for.The higher we finish more money we get.Also apart from the top 3 Dundee are the only team we haven't beat this season and since we came up Dundee and Celtic are the only teams we haven't beat.

yoda-jag Posted April 21, 2016 Report Share Posted April 21, 2016 On the other hand, with no real pressure the players just might go out and give the fans a treat 4-4 an eight goal thriller you say? i could settle for that ..... though a six two, seven one, or eight nil in our favour would be my preference. and why you giving scumdee four goals against us? it's not as if we have half our recognised defence, and possibly first choice keeper, missing ..... or that we have shipped four gifts to them before ..... oh, ummmm, hmmmm, good point four four i'll take that.

Rid Skwerr Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Didn't know Seaborne was suspended - that's a bit of a blow. Still, may be a chance for the other boys to shine. Hope Harkins can't be arsed to gee his ginger tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Earl of Hathaway Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 I'm assuming that the defence is going to have to be some permutation of Lindsay, Miller and Frans - with Elliot left and Dumbuya right. Unless we've got some undiscovered gems in the Development Squad that are going to get thrown in. However, I remember the Dundee Utd game in January of last year when we had to field a makeshift defence and we did OK then.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
