Credit Where Credit Is Due

Agree with that 100% JR. There was one example in the 2nd half yesterday when Burnsy was second favourite to win the ball against a bigger opponent but the block tackle he made almost burst the ball and shook the stadium. Terrific fight and heart which McShane would do well to emulate.

Yes, indeedy! Burnsy on song is a terrific player at this level. I hope fans turn out in numbers for his testimonial. I know circumstances were unusual yesterday but what a poor turn out v league leaders.

Auld chippy, I think we will have some gaps for Beany when suspensions kick in soon. It was disappointing to see McKenna pick up another one.

I dont expect Ian Russell to return to team and bench is more likely.

Others may disagree but for me Russell is a central striker but the manager sees that differently and I feel as though we have created a formation that accommodates him but does not suit the other players that we have at our disposal. Two up front is a must for us and I think Kerr burns and McKenna ( suspensions permitting) will be the way forward this season.

I would like us to get Paton signed up - high potential player who can really pull the strings.

A win next week and we are really back in the hunt!

I have to take my hat off to Jim McIntyre and eat the humble pie I have had in the fridge all season. He has managed to transform the team in the past couple of months and the teams form is improving at the right time of the season. He has got all players playing and has recognised where the team has required improving from the side he was playing at the start of the season. Sorry to have to mention this but imo the biggest change was the goalkeeper as Clark and now young Atkinson have shown a level of confidence that has spread throughout the defence. As the saying goes - Strikers win you games, defences win you leagues.
With the confidence in the defence then this spreads throughout the whole team and we start winning on a regular basis. That was typified yesterday in the last few minutes of the game when some of the play in the left back area of the pitch was tremendous with a series of passes when under pressure and suddenly we were breaking up the pitch at pace and had Falkir

A well deserved win but one i didn,t think was coming as we passed up loads of chances.
We could of been 1 up after a minute as Lyles cross found no takers.Holty charged into the area but blazed wide and then McHugh fluffed his chance from a great Burns cross.I think he would take it with his left next time.Chances kept coming as Paton twice came close.One knocked away by McGovern as Lyle was about to pounce.Into the second half and we had more possession but probably less chances.The best made by Patons great touch for himself but he tamely shot wide.When McGovern again got across his line to save from Paton it looked like a goalless draw but Gavins cameo won the day.An accurate cross from Lyle was angled home and then another Holt gallop and a clever Paton back heel was slammed home to produce one of the biggest roars at Palmerston this season.
It was a funny game as we were quite wasteful in possession at times but we must have made more chances than any other game this season.
