Morton v The Pars

[scottyboy]

0-1 to 0-4 defeat. Take yir pick, guaranteed to play for a draw. I reckon a 10-0-0 formation and reckon we'll get the tactics wrong.

And for that reason,  I'm out.

To add, if my laddie says he wants to go then obviously I'll be going.

But we might have Chris Kane back for a last 5min stint😅

That's more than he needs! 😁

If the weather forecast is correct, thee will be winds of 45-55 mph all day on Saturday, so driving conditions will be difficult and the match may be in doubt.

And throw in three half time substitutions as McPake selects the wrong starting line up for the umpteenth time. Please put him out of our misery.

In fairness i dont hugely disagree, However i think McPake has been seriously limited in targeting players through board inaction and has had to sign available players that were left in the market and the reality is that most have not been up to scratch 

That’s true. His ‘main’ targets of the summer have failed to deliver though

They have to be injury prone for him to sign them and give them a 2 year deal.

Sadly I think you are correct. The weather will not help either especially if it is high tide around 1500.

I think the worst event watched for humans was  The Fall in concert, it was much less entertaining than the Pars, although maybe this weekend could come close 😆 . I reckon  Christian in concert would be more appealing.

Wind speed at kick off time is set to be 47mph. With the wind behind him, I reckon Tobi should be shooting from the edge of his box.

Christian was a pal of ma mums. She used to get him to do the Oakley pensioners Christmas parties. Sure he has groupies.

If its difficult enough to be motivated for this fixture then dont read the Managers preview, same old, same old. McPake saying the they should not be passing the ball back to Tobi. Fair enough, but its been evident all season with a hugely slow build up and with lack of movement the easiest ball is back to Bene or Tobi. It might be evident after the game, however very little is done to change things during the game. After the game is too late. A goal down against Raith at HT, it still took 36m to have a effort on target in the second half. As for the positives Kane is fully fit, Wighton is still out and Tod doesn't need a op

Passing the ball back to Bennie or the keeper has been the main tactic for last three seasons.

[Secure Par]

See I don’t know what McPake is trying to say as the team has been moving the ball round at the back and GK all season making an attack virtually non existent. 
Let’s  see what happens tomm but imo the players want to play an attacking minded formation🤞

I lost count the amount of times I watched the manager jump up from his seat and berate the players for doing so
