For some reason , these dried up after he came on ? I thought that too, he was outside the box doing all that work because nothing was going into the box. I haven't been his biggest fan but I don't think he did much wrong today when he came on. A shame the few decent crosses the last few home games weren't when he played and McCann did.

Surprised we put O'Hara out wide as he would be better for running beyond the defenders after we win the first header 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA-go Par Adonis Posted April 2, 2023 Report Share Posted April 2, 2023 It's disappointing that we couldn't nick the 3 points and set up a potential title winner at Grangemouth. I don't think we can claim to have blown the chance as we've now got 8 wins and 8 draws in our 16 home games. What we did yesterday was largely in-keeping with the season. I guess the other factor is that a draw next week is grand. It wouldn't have felt that way if the title was ours with a win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have strikers essentially, playing out wide at times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst I get it would have been good from a rivalry perspective to win the league at Grangemouth, I would prefer we clinched it at home to QOS, where more people can see it and the playing staff can enjoy it with a bumper crowd 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve never addressed the lack of wingers issue all season. Don’t see what McDonald has done wrong to fall out the team altogether as he’s probably the best crosser of the ball we have yet can’t get any gametime 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyboy Posted April 2, 2023 Report Share Posted April 2, 2023 I hope he starts giving the bit part players and the youth a run out, once officially champions. Soon be time to build for a tougher season ahead. Mcpake will probably have an idea of who should stay, who should go. He certainly has done a good job this season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the managers choice though. He had McCann out when there was no need to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
