Under the circumstances

[Chick A Saw]

Don't know if he would be dropped to accommodate a target man but Billy King hasn't impressed me at all.

It is a rare thing when we agree, but i am not yet decided and am leaning over to the unimpressed. He did put in a good shift today, by the jury is sitting.

Have criticised Scott Fraser on here for being a powder puff who disappears when the going gets tough, but I'm more than happy to eat humble pie today. He turned the game when he came on. With 10 men we were struggling second half (particularly the way Edge was playing at times). Thought Fraser gave us an outlet with pace and passing on the right to link play together. As for McMullan, he has a lot to learn if he's going to let a fud like Rooney wind him up. He won the foul so there was no need to slap the big **** in the pus.

good result under the circumstances.

good points:
Stanton is a player
Fyvie started showing signs of the player we hope he will be, at fault for his part in the goal and some slack play however some neat passes and much needed composure on the ball at times
McDonald off and running
McMullans run for the goal
Murdoch is a massive upgrade on Toshney at rb and looked good i thought
Looked good with 10 men up the hill

Bad points:
McMullan red
Edge/Robson look like they have a lot of mistakes in them
Keatings looked off pace
Thought we were pretty poor with 11 men in first half

Edge took a knock early doors and i thought would not come out second half. Robson i think had one of his best games for us and looks an improvement on last season. Keatings looked like he was just back from injury and i thought things had just clicked when McMullan took his swipe.

One bad point to add with Flood being the one on the end of the break away near the end! If only it was someone with an eye for goal, it could have been 3-1!

Ye i thought Robson generally played really well however him and edge beside each other give a few heart in the mouth moments

Delighted with the result under those circumstances today. We would have lost that game last season.

For a guy who was probably the most "meh" signing of the summer, Stanton's quickly proving himself to be a big, big player for us this season, looks like everything we hoped Telfer would become.

I absolutely love the fact that Sam Stanton is prepared to take on and commit opponents and break through the lines. Sure, he sometimes gave the ball away, but i can live with that when he works as hard. This mirrored my view on Simon Murray. I'm also delighted for Scott Fraser, who I have always maintained is our most skilful player, but questioned his heart and his desire and his will. Scott should look at Sam and try to match or beat whatever stats goes to his GPS. If they two have a private battle, we will benefit as a Club.

Would imagine Fraser will start next week now. With better players around him than previously, hopefully he will improve and deliver on a regular basis.
