Mr Mac Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 Another result ground out. Got to keep the momentum going, no matter how pretty it isn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al k Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 Thank god, was worried Falkirk were going to pull a result and jump above. Hard work but hopefully we can do the business against Clyde and get some daylight between us and the others. Our attacking is still worrying tho.

rosythpar Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 Main thing we got the three points and top of the league. We seem to play better on the astro away from home. I would have liked McPake to bring the two wingers we have on loan on. Looked like from the main stand another object thrown on from the north west.

It was one team trying to score and the other team trying to defend with everyone back for 95% of the game. Really difficult to break down, but the Pars kept going from start to finish, made quite a few chances, and we got what we deserved in the end. Even if we had drawn today I'd have been pretty happy with that performance, in the context of Edinburgh's game-deadening tactics. They also got exactly what they deserved. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Table doesn’t lie. Performance was fine. We were just up against a team with no interest whatsoever in coming forward. As defensive a performance as I can ever remember. 13 minutes ago, Digs said: Going solely by the stats on Sky Sports app, seems like it was usual story of being better in the second half. Pressure looked like it was building before we scored though(?) Yeah, it was , although we'd had a fair bit of pressure in the second half of the first half too, if that makes sense. We came out and just picked up where we left off, and gradually ratcheted up the pressure until the dam was broken 13 minutes ago, Digs said: 3 points and onto Tuesday to make it 4 points clear and 7 clear of Falkirk. Job done. 🙂 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, it was, and whoever did it needs to give themselves a f###ing shake. We can't be doing this. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keyser Soze Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 Honestly believe the second half was one of the most one sided games of football I’ve ever seen. We must’ve been bordering on 90% possession. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raymie Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 (edited) I thought the first half hour was fairly even, no side on top and not much for either keeper to do. As half time approached, Pars began to get more possession. Second half started with the Pars on the front foot. There seemed a greater urgency about their play and the chances began to flow. Clearly had the hairdryer treatment at half time ? Edwards was the main provider of chances as he continued to play high up the pitch and put some really good balls in, as well as some poor ones. The keeper was worked much more and Comrie was unlucky with a header at the back post. McCann dragged one wide too the ineffective Todorov was withdrawn along with Hamilton, surprisingly, in favour of Wighton and McCann up top with Todd taking over Hamilton’s position for a slight change of shape. Pars were now going for it and Chalmers was getting on the ball often. A Chalmers corner was headed goalwards by young Fisher and everyone was waiting for the net to bulge, but it was cleared off the line. Not to be denied, a few minutes later, Fisher, bent a low cross in from deep. It caught Fontaine, running back, a glancing blow in the midriff and the ball hit the side net to the keeper’s right. GOAL Edinburgh threw men forward In an attempt to salvage a point but there was to be no repeat of the Peterhead debacle and Pars seen out the game comfortably enough a well deserved win in the end, albeit the goal carried some good fortune. Benedictus, Edwards and Chalmers our better performers, in that order Edited October 15, 2022 by Raymie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kelty_par Posted October 15, 2022 Report Share Posted October 15, 2022 That game was crying out for wingers and yet we sign 2 and leave them on the bench? Found that a bit strange but a good win in the end, chance to go 4 clear and Falkirk playing Alloa you never know if Alloa could sneak a point after a good result today 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
