Mmm, not sure about that.

Duffy, Devine and Boyes as a back three, or a back four with Kerr in midfield?

I’d have preferred MacGregor or Lawal to Longstaff. Good to have Gilmour fit to start though.

A big night ahead. Hopefully we can get a win to give us confidence for Saturday.

He really doesn’t rate MacGregor does he. Gilmore back for 3 seconds and in ahead of him. I wonder what he’s done wrong.

Longstaff is pysh, As you say Lawal or Mcgregor, They would be my choice too.

We’ve missed Gilmour and the strength he gives us in midfield. I saw him growing to be the “new Allardice” before he got injured so I’m glad he’s back. I just hope he’s fit and we’ve not brought him back too soon like Shaw a few weeks ago.

People will obviously question the keeper, but it started because we gave the ball away very cheaply in midfield.
Big stroke of luck for Hamilton that the shot somehow went in. About time we got some good fortune like that.

See you in league one guys…

[IcyT]

Embarrassing. What an absolute shambles.

[robbo1985]

Disaster

[Douglas Mackenzie]

Hamilton have settled well,we are nervous and it shows.trying to walk it into the net.I would go 442 and push Billy up alongside Samuel.

At the moment we look like Div 1 team.

I’m starting to see the benefits of the mind-numbingly unambitious and negative tactics we saw at Montrose.

[KennySim93]

Why is Billy playing so deep? Hes almost in midfield. Needs to much furrher up.

He’s been played there most games. The summariser has it spot on about how we have lined up.

The next goal is vital. 

[IcyT]

Cove, Arbroath, Montrose, Alloa, Annan, Kelty, Stenhousemuir - yep, our level… 

At least maybe we’ll get a positive sub on 5 mins earlier than usual as we chase the game - or perhaps we won’t, because we can’t get out of a defensive mindset that’s become entrenched.

[forresjags]

Absolute **** show, no idea from back to front.

 

[Yngwie]

There are more goals in this game, I just hope some are for us.

[Douglas Mackenzie]

Hamiltons tactics are spot on.Give us no space,high tempo,show drive and desire to win and control midfield. 

They need to get a grip,switch on and start playing our own game and bring on Lawal

Even worse than feared.  Everything is so slow, our midfield look like they're running in treacle.  Nothing against Gilmour but he's barely half fit, I just can't fathom the decision to parachute him straight in after 3 months out. We need to see Lawal & Macgregor as Anderson is blowing too.

This one is on the manager. It's been coming.

[caley100]

We need to go 442, Get Longstaff away to feck, get Mcgregor or Lawal on to give some direct play.

There's just no passion, Half of theses guys will be away Saturday night.

[mazza20]

Feel like I'm about to go against what everyone else thought with my take

We've managed to get the ball into some decent spots and have forced a couple of saves, our biggest threat is down the left, when go right kerr too often has stopped and played back the way. McKay is not a 10 and I thought he was one of the worst offenders for slowing our attacks down. Feel the ref hasn't handled it well, and should have booked a Hamilton well before he did. Could argue we should have had a pen, same for Hamilton, and felt the second was a foul on Ridgers

[Yngwie]

What an awful half for us. Two disastrous and rather freakish goals. In general though I don’t think we have been as bad as the score suggests, it’s been an even game overall and we are playing more attacking football than we have done in recent games (which is isn’t saying much, admittedly).
