Good luck to the boys tonight. Great night for scoring goals against Dundee utd. ?

Yes. Big tonight tonight. All the best. We know that we can give them one hell of a game at Tannadice so lets have a platform for that.

Let's get torn in about these mongrels from the start.

Thought MacDonald would of started in place of Walsh. Are we playing Mcart left back and McHattie in midfield with Chalmers pushed into left midfield?

I would say:

Ridgers

Mckay McCart Donaldson McHattie

Chalmers Trafford

Rooney Polworth Doran

White

Last few games Rooney has pushed on from RB so maybe push him higher up?

Robbo just confirmed that on BT Sport

Just had an interesting interview with Scott Gardiner on BBC radio.  Making all the right noises.

Do tell?

What a shitey home support?

Looks like McHattie and Rooney will be playing higher up than the back three.

Gutted to be missing the game. Lucky I've got BT sports

Nothing you don't already know. 

Need to engage with the community, including the business community.  On his first walk through the town one evening, he didn't see any sign that the club existed. 

They haven't budgeted for going up this season, so it's not the end of the world if we don't.  Thinks that we are not quite ready for it, off the pitch, but it would be a challenge that he would love to take on.

Criitical of the play-offs timing and money.  50% of the gate money going to the SPFL means we lost money on Saturday.  Where else do you get penalised for doing well?  Only two days - Sunday and Monday - to promote and sell this game.

Can't argue with any of that. Sounds like he is going to be a good appointment.

There may have been more - I came in to the middle of it.

We've had 4 good chances so far in the game

What is Donaldson thinking there.....lucky that wasn't a red card

I'd be half tempted to take Coll off at half time.  Lucky to be on the pitch IMO and need him for the 2nd leg.  Trouble is, who do we replace him with?  Might have to revert to a back 4.

Agree about Donaldson.  He is a 'red card' waiting to happen tonight. Gives away far too many free kicks.  Think we're unlucky not to be ahead at half time.  Keep up the good work lads, we can pinch this.

Entertaining first half. Mchattie needs to get tighter on McMullan. Doran has the beating of their defence. Donaldson gave away a foolish free kick just on half time with forward going away from box. Just as well nothing came of it and he never got a second yellow. He's walking a tightrope now.

Good half though.

Same old story.  Catastrophe immediately after the break.  Polworth red card - so out for Friday as well.

Radio commentators say it was no worse than yellow.

Polworth off with a Red !!!! Perhaps his last home game ?

Need to keep calm now.

 

What was Polly thinking ?

A hard shift for the next half hour or more.

Will Polly be back for the second leg next week ?

I have been a big defender of Polwarth but that was a stupid stupid challenge (albeit no intent)
