CaleyP

he's from aberdeen, well i think he is, he played for cove rangers before going to caley's youth system.

im not blaming the fans but a footballer does sense how the crowd is feeling...when there is no atmosphere it makes a huge difference to a player...trust me. there is nothing worse than playing in front of a crowd that has no life to it. i think what fans shouldnt do is assume how player feels when they are in front of a crowd...unless you have been in that position you have no idea. talking from experience its not nice if you have a hostile home crowd. these people are meant to be supporting you not ripping you and your team mates to pieces. all im saying is maybe dont be so quick to blame the players..after all they are only human.

just so its clear 'tokelyisvictorious' you dont want any of our young players who have consistantly played well anywhere near the first team....however, you think being a senior player excuses them from being poor every week(i.e Imirie, Barrowman, maguire and tokely at times)...coz they have been....where is your logic here?? so your happy to play senior players week in week out even if they dont perform? so what you are saying is, please dont play the young ones because i'd rather see our under-performing older players play?! im intrigued...where is the logic? im wondering if you can explain why you think this...dont just say it...explain it. maybe you can change my mind to why i think they should keep the young guys in the starting line up. also what is your hate towards vigurs all about...do you not realise he has been excellent every game he's played for the first team bar the st mirren game where he played ok...??? were you not at the falkirk and arbroath games to see this??

second all that...couldnt agree more....spot on.

yeah i think so too. brew now has a reason to put munro back in there after sats performance.

i now think its going to be tuff for Barrowman to get a run...i know that Brew absolutely loves Wood and he's certainly not going to drop Rooney. so i think he's gonna find himself on the bench for a few more weeks unless the two strikers in favour at the moment go seriously down hill. i think all three strikers have to prove themself at this level...at this moment in time none of them have really had enough games to do so, so its a bit premature to say otherwise.

i reckon granty would have started had he been fit, i hope he is fit enough to be in next week with duff. which team would you play next week?

i agree i think that we're going to get more away points than home...but why is this...why is it the team dont like playing at home...coz im lucky enough to get to both away and home games and i have to say i see two different teams. away....they seem confident and full of life...why is this??? home....im suprised if i see a smile on one of the players face....maybe....are the fans to blame....do the home support get behind their team...is lack of atmosphere the problem....why are they so different at home???

well yeah i agree with that if brew plays a 4-5-1, however, brew was bigging up Wood in a post match interview so i cant see him dropping him.

both have just come back to training this week so i dont think that they have fully recovered yet. but once they have i would definitely get the two back in there. proc right back and duncan usual position. i think tokely needs competition to perform to his best. Anyone at the game yesterday could see it was not the young players who were the problem.Where we were let down was with some of our more experienced players. Ross could not possibly have played a worse game for the club , If Procter is fit he must start next saturday. Roy was totally ineffective in the middle and how many more times is Michael going to get caught in no mans land . yeah i completely agree, it wasnt the younsters at all, i think procs and duncan should replace two of the more senior players once they are fit. i would keep vigurs, wood and duff in the line up for next week.

how i thought they rated today Fraser - 5 - didnt have much to do but when we needed him i think he could have done better. Tokely - 5 - to many misplaced passes today...not the tokely we like to see Mcguire - 5 - just seems to hesitate to much...thus leading to the middens first goal Duff - 6 - not his best game so far but still put in a solid performance Vigurs - 6 - again not his best performance but played the ball on the deck and played some nice passes to put wood and rooney through on goal a few times McBain - 5 - worked hard as usual but didnt get on the ball enough Black - 7 - worked his balls off and again good passing but unfortunately still cant find a forward pass...lacks vision to see a through ball to the strikers at the moment Cowie - 5 - just wasn't in the game today whatsoever...need more from him as he's such an important player Rooney - 8 - worked hard, made lots of runs, unlucky with his great strike that hit the bar, well converted penalty Wood - 7 - again worked very hard, faught for everything. just needs a little composure in front of goal subs Imirie - 3 - didnt really have much of the ball, lost to many times when he did have. put in one good cross Wilson - 3 - not much to say, didnt really get into the game Barrowman - 3 - again didnt get into the game

by the way, i think that the cost of buying the best players from highland league and neighbours would be much higher than the costs of running our youth team. But it is refreshing to see some new ideas.

yeah i completely agree with all that.

sorry couldnt resist....im guessing your about 14 or something going by your football knowledge....grow up.

Erm...The players on the bench? imrie crossed the ball once and lost the ball every other time and got bullied with a shoulder barge that put him into next week...aye he looked much better.... how many of you guys come to games with blind folds on......... not going to comment on this thread anymore....complete load of *****....

i can understand that, but thats what your going to get when you support lower financed club...i support whatever. you should too. so did you think imrie did well when he came on?

well they way i look at it is they are only going to get better the likes of duff, wood and vigurs with each game played...noone really played well today granted. thats why im sticking up for the younger lads coz i really dont think any of them did anything wrong, just didnt play amazing...youth are always going to get judged more coz they are new on the scene. i just like to support my team regardless the outcome right to the end of every game.

it seems your the only one then mate. yes you have an opinion but it seems that it might be wrong. read the comments above. all im saying is cut the guy some slack....coz he did ok today, i understand people have preferences to different players but what your saying is wrong.

now that i can agree on. to many supporters out there only coming to the games when we're winning...thats not support...win or lose im there. i cant recall one of his passes not going to a caley player. lack of match fitness yes...lazy no. you really dont like the youth.

right o you better get knocking on brews door then....easier said than done mate. im sorry but your talking a load of rubbish and thats a kind way of putting it. end of.

completely disagree....only one player managed to cut open the defence with one pass and that was vigurs on three/four occassions. wood got us the pen and got man of the match and duff was the better of the two centre backs. its so easy to blame the youngsters. easy way out.

talking a load of sh*** i think....you watching the same game...so easy to blame the youth...imrie did nothing when he came on...at least vigurs put through 4 through balls to the strikers for them to finish but didnt...who else did that...blackie passed the ball backwards or side ways everytime.

its the same starting 11 tomo that lined up against falkirk.

well since he has us down to loose again thats good news for us isn't it...since he cant get a f***king prediction correct the little ****.
