Pride_of_ayrshire Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 Had a chat with a friend who's a QP fan and he said they have alot of threat with pace on a counter and has been there plan all season. It's would be a bit weary to Bruce at the back who isnt really the fastest but is smart. Although i think we should give Findlay a run for at least 60 minutes just to get some game time before the thelic game. I'd play this line up feel free to argue but I'm resting a few key players for the thelic game.

piffer Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 I appreciate your thought on resting players but given our form and the fact we’ve not played for three weeks I think we need to put out a strong side. Getting the win and hopefully a few goals could build confidence. Minutes from the players to shake of the rust ahead of another tough set of fixtures. Probably more forgiving working on things against QP than against Celtic. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scouser2 Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 First 11 , strongest team ...unless we have new signings by then who need game time A win is badly needed for various reasons and hopefully in time can look back on as a turning point Would been bit more "fun" and different if it had been away but hopefully will be a decent crowd 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armstrong86 Posted January 13, 2020 Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 (edited) Strongest team. After the run we’ve been on we can’t afford to field a weaken team. Squad will have had a 3 week break by the Queens Park game so no key players need a rest even if we are playing Celtic 4 days later.

Popular Post Dundonald_Killie Posted January 13, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 Sack a manager and appoint his assistant on a short-term contract in December. Scrape a win against a lower division team at home in the Scottish Cup in January.

Popular Post Gaz of the 20/20 Posted January 13, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 13, 2020 Playing fringe players (do we even have any anymore?) is an extremely risky strategy against a team who will be looking to take a scalp. The Scottish Cup is important to us as fans, the only chance realistically of potentially winning something, chance of decent money for the club. We have looked stupid enough this season, playing a weakened team then getting papped out the Scottish Cup by Queens Park at home does not even bear thinking about. Play our strongest side, ideally with a couple of strong additions, and try and get the job done. Players dont need a rest after fortnight without a match, they need to play and find their feet bloody fast for Wednesday night against Celtic. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We did have more than one player who could put the ball in the net, a brilliant, if erratic, goalkeeper, and a manager that the fans were right behind. Plus, a route to the final that avoided either of the gruesome twosome. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, and yet we were VERY nearly relegated on the last day of the season, saved only by a certain Gary Holt (irony alert), and as much as I loved watching Drago, can you think about the absolute pelters he would get on here for some of his moments of madness , Firhill probably being the worse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but what goalkeeper doesn't make a mistake. Lloris has a World Cup medal but has had moments of madness at Spurs and Gazzaniga has already shown he can be just as crazy. In the Cup run Drago saved us on more than one occasion and his last minute save in the final prevented extra time and penalties, which we would surely have lost. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, that's why i think we can be a bit too harsh on Larry, he has made some wonderful saves, but has had his fair share of bloopers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harrogate Peter Posted January 14, 2020 Report Share Posted January 14, 2020 When we won the cup we only had one reliable goalscorer and that was Paul Wright. Yes I know that John Henry got three at Morton and Mc Intyre scored the winner in the semi final but when Wright went off and Falkirk had a goal disallowed if it hadn't have been I think we may well have lost. We were riddled with nerves and the momentum was with them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
