Secure Par Posted August 6 Report Share Posted August 6 (edited) We have not scored 1 goal in the past 3 games played and our keeper is not confident for any crosses/shots so fek it…. Play an aggressive high pressing tempo game with 2/3 up top and hope the defence is ok. Keep the ball in their half… Plus if I was McPake mention everyday at training what this match means to the fans that are coming along to support the team..create an atmosphere for the players for what is expected by the fans/club on the training pitch. Everything should be 1v1,2v2 hard tackling etc. Edited August 6 by Secure Par Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auld_Reekie Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 If the management team and players can't get themselves in the right mindset for this game, they don't deserve to be at the club. High tempo and high press isn't the McPake way but if he wants to avoid an embarrassment he's got no option. Limping to defeat would be typical of this season; a heavy defeat would surely be the final straw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymie Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 I’m not so sure we have the players to play a high press? If Chris Kane does start, he will be well short of match fitness and certainly won’t last the game. I can’t imagine David Wotherspoon pressing high either. KRH and Lewis McCann could do, though, but that’s not enough. I doubt he will start young Taylor is such a big match ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sutherland, McCann and KRH could do it but I doubt they could sustain it and no subs to maintain it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auld_Reekie Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 I don't expect Kane to start, and between Otoo, Hamilton, McCann, KRH, Sutherland we absolutely should not be sitting deep and letting Falkirk dictate play. Some of the best parts of highlights in Livi first half was of the team pressing play and we were trying to press them high up the park. We're at our absolute worst when we're passive. Get it in the bin. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Piracy Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 I get the apathy but I'd urge fellow fans to reconsider and get along to support our team against these tramps. It'll be pretty damm good if we win the game. Yeah, I know it'll be unbearable if we lose, but that's where we're at right now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartan Army Par Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 Even hospitality hasn't sold out. Unheard of for a game like this. Agree that we all need to get behind the lads and at least make this a hard fight to get three points off us. Not just roll over and have our belly tickled by them.

It's a damning indictment that the club posted up a about there being spaces in Hospitality this week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raymie Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 (edited) I've never known hospitality to not be sold out for the "class A" games. I've just had a look - £89!! I'm not surprised to be honest Edited August 7 by Raymie 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, while there is a lot of disaffection going on atm its with the way the club is being run. There is no point in getting on the back of the players they are not to blame for matters off the pitch. So yes we do need to support our team.

El Patrón Posted August 7 Report Share Posted August 7 Regardless of the result, a message needs sent to the board at this game. In the unlikely event that we win, we can't sweep everything under the carpet and get carried away in the emotion of beating those mutants.
