Superally Posted January 10, 2023 Report Share Posted January 10, 2023 Well after Tuesdays SPFL Trust Trophy Cup match succumbing to a very, very late call off. Its back to East End Park and League 1 action once more. This time the Pars welcome “The Blue Toon” otherwise known as Peterhead. Many Pars fans will sorely remember the Pars chucking away a comfortable 2-0 lead to drop 2pts after Peterhead scored two very late goals. And while the Pars have only been beaten once this season, that draw felt like many to be a loss and a sore one to take. Circumstances between both teams have changed little both being at polar opposites in terms of league position with the Pars top and Peterhead bottom only gaining 8pts all season. Indeed, while the Pars have lost only one game Peterhead have only won one game this season a 2-1 win against Kelty Hearts in Sept. Despite a managerial change from Jim McNally to David Robertson form remains poor losing 4 of their last 6 matches. Over the season they have scored 10 goals (albeit 2 against the Pars!) and conceded 48. The last meeting between the teams was a 2-0 pars win with goals from Todd and Mochrie. By rights this should be a banker for a home win and another 3points but like last time strange things can happen although I suspect it won’t be on Saturday. 3-0 Pars win for me COYP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Digs Posted January 11, 2023 Report Share Posted January 11, 2023 3-0 Pars for me. I can't see us making the same mistakes twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Number Eleven Posted January 14, 2023 Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 Possibly our worst home performance of the season against Peterhead last time round. We were lucky to be 2 up and then threw the lead away in the final minutes. Hopefully the team have learned from this and we can add another 3 points.

GG Riva Posted January 14, 2023 Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 On paper, this should be a home banker, but then that's what we thought when Peterhead were last here and with 5 mins to go, we looked an absolute racing certainty. We all know how that turned out. 🙁 Like Digs, I think the players will have learned from that and the manager will ensure they don't make the same mistake. 2-0 Pars for me.

the saline hill puma Posted January 14, 2023 Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 (edited) Should be a comfortable win Think MacDonald should keep his place from last week, so if breen is fit again would be a choice between him and comrie for 3rd centre half Edited January 14, 2023 by the saline hill puma 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartan Army Par Posted January 14, 2023 Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 Have we won by a more than a 1 goal margin at home this season? I will go for 3-1 today and win by our biggest margin at home this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd change it as comrie didn't look all that comfortable on the left side at times and it's breens natural position I do think if breen is fit however it will be MacDonald who drops out, assuming we go with our normal shape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastendtales Posted January 14, 2023 Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 I think MacDonald might keep his place as he's had a few assists in recent games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superally Posted January 14, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 Seems an overly defensive line up against a team that has scored 10 goals all season! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
parsforlife Posted January 14, 2023 Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 Not sure that will be the formation. 3 -4-2-1 probably more likely but there's a few ways those players can line up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al k Posted January 14, 2023 Report Share Posted January 14, 2023 Just as I type this both us and Alloa (against Edinburgh)1 up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
