Forecast for the Morton game.

[An old shed boy]

Hard one to call in my opinion.
Much as Mackinnon has been maligned by many (myself included) he's still managed to grind out the results if not the performances.
But you have to think that our luck will run out eventually.
Best I can see is a draw but if Morton score first then it'll be a struggle.
Or maybe this'll be the week when it all comes together and we dish out a sound thrashing.
And so to bed

Hardest game to call for a long time. Hope Ray picks the right team, doesnt rely on his favourites and really goes for it in this game!

Think in the last 2 games that Morton have come back to win from a goal down, maybe home and away as well!

chance of rain?

[arabian_ian]

1 up front, sh1t performance. Result debatable.

[Charlie arab]

Eh think we'll win it 2-1, backs to the wall last 10 mins.

[shedboy71]

1 up front, sh1t performance. Result debatable.

to be fair we only have one fit (well getting there) striker - sticking Paul up there as well is a waste of time. If only folk on here had screamed for a big tall striker maybe Ray would have listened......


...oh wait a min :)

[shedboy71]

why will they bring on a gay sub for last 10 mins?

ill get me coat

Amusing Terry but how do you think the game will go.

[TerryTheTerror]

I think we'll win 1-0.

[darrenshedtastic]

2-1 win by united with a decent performance for once. we'll be 2-0 and cruising then theyll score out of nothing (typically rubbish goal) in last 5mins then itll be panic stations for remained of game. we'll hold out but people on here will forget the 80mins of decent performance to zoom in on the panicked 5mins hahaha

im confident for this one tbh. i do think Ray is right about we're not clicking yet up top and once that happens well be decent. but the longer we dont click the more and more he sounds like sir jackie of york.

[shedboy71]

you know Darren thats what i think too - prob not performance wise but 2-1 after going 2 up in first half.

[darrenshedtastic]

i just have a vision of us being comfortable then struggling right at the end and scrapping it. ill take any win tbh after the last few games were both results and performances havent been good enough ill take any win now and set us up for dunfermline.

[USArab]

Depends on:

Who McKinnon plays and in which position.

One up front, defensive formation, same old lack luster attitude, United will lose narrowly.

2 or 3 up front, attacking formation, keeping it tight at the back, good attitute and work rate United will win comfortably.

[shedboy71]

He may try and suggest its a 3 up front with king mcd mcm

as long as we show a bit of heart.

[Whitfieldarab]

King, Keatings & N'koy seemingly all doubtful....... 1 up front it is then>:(

[stokearab]

Injuries or not I see this game as a bit of a tipping point.

Win and we are back on track with something to build on. Lose and it just confirms what most people are thinking, and we lose ground at the top which will start to look difficult to recover from. A draw is also not much good to us - we need to get the 3 points imo.

Prediction 1-1

[duarab1976]

Much improved performance, players gelling and getting even fitter 2-0 loss

[ahlltanyirhide]

This is the week we've been waiting on 6-0 United (McDonald 3, Durnan 2, King)

[arab81]

Keatings doubtful again! We're great at signing a crock.

[Whitfieldarab]

This is the week we've been waiting on 6-0 United (McDonald 3, Durnan 2, King)

Durnan up front with McDonald.

I like it.

Good old fashioned punt up the park to Durnan for McDonald then goals galore championship style.

Mon Utd.

[shedboy71]

it really is that grim Whitfield id put durnan or lester up front. Ray could lose his job so take heed.

Lewis
Briels Toshney(or Quinn if ok) Edge Robson
King Fyvie Stanton McM
Mcd Durnan

[offshore_arab83]

I think we'll win

[Tannadicebunnet]

Not confident about winning tomorrow, or by the shouts of get Durnan up front just because he's got a bit of height . Gonna go with a prediction of 0-3 to Morton.

[Sutherland Arab]

2-0 Morton.
One in each half.
Most of game us not doing very much.
No entertainment.
Boos.
"We'll be BANG at it very soon"
GTF

[darrenshedtastic]

reckon if we lose tomorrow the dunfermline game will be the decider for Ray. would need to win there to keep job imo..

dont think thatll happen tho 2wins out of 2 iim confident for some reason haha

[pertharab]

Scarily I've got the confidence about tomorrow. Don't know where it's coming from but 2 - 0 United and no panicky ending followed up with a win at Dunfermline next week. Confidence back and all looking rosy. Oh! and then getting pumped out of the fizzy pop cup the next week by the Huns Lite! Thats my predictions.

[eastfifearabman]

But If the DPRK get their way

2000 degrees centigrade and 500mph winds

Might be all that saves us from the exciting brand of football Ray is setting his team up to provide.

Rocket Man v The Mentally Deranged Gangster!!

[ianharab]

Same as always these days , hoping for the best , fearing the worst

[PortugueseFrank]

Quitongo on form = a draw at best for us.

He’s a serious talent at this level. Stop him we’ve got more than a shout.

But. I predict our eyes will be bleeding come full time.

[shedboy71]

watched motherwell last night. v v average players in general and lucky w a goal or 2 but in your face attitude. v impressed.

wont see that tomorrow i guess. not from us anyway

[GUNBOAT]

Cannie believe we are 4/7 on against a team who beat Dunfermline recently,do Shedka and Smeds compile the Ladbrokes odd's by any chance?.

[Arabdad]

One all draw at best. We'll have lots of possession but fail to move the ball back to front quickly enough to prevent Morton getting everyone behind the ball when we're in possession. Defence will be solid but a mistake by one of our midfielders will put a Morton player clean through for an easy tap in. Scott McDonald will work his butt off with no service and grind out an equaliser.

What a shortsighted response. You could be watching Barca they way we play. U 10's mind you but.....

I love the way we build up play and the opposition are all back chilled out laughing at how inept we are they are virtually sitting on bar stools with a pint and fag and when ball comes in they have time to say excuse me i must deal with this. Then boom a lapse of concentration by one of our 6 holding mids as he fell asleep due to the rhythmic almost cathartic hypnotic nature of our sideways passing ....... and then quintongo runs like phuck and scores.

We dominated though and nearly fit and stuff .. bang at it.. hiding... gel...id play 2 up front honest...backs against wall...

whats the odd for that eh! :)

How fecking sad is it that a team that could have won the European cup are now only hoping to beat Morton at home.
How far have we slumped?

a wee bit tbh

[GUNBOAT]

We will win 6-0,apparently i expect that every week according to our manager.

Presumably the bookies are looking at our home form.

[jerrennixon]

im usually an optimistic man but Ive just got a horrible feeling Mortons away to give us 2/3 today with little reply.

An early goal by them, uneasy crowd directing abuse at RM who will be standing there with his arms folded scratching his head. Followed by a sucker punch bang on half time.

Morton to come out 2nd half and sit it, possibly sneak one from a set peice late on.

I hope to phuck that Im wrong tho :s

FS Jerren are you Mystic Meg?!
Or yon octopus??

I suppose if you/we are expecting the total worst then we can take crumbs from comfort for anything better than that like only getting beaten by a single goal.
But I posted on Tek the score is going to be either 1-0, 2-1, 2-0 or 1-1 but DEFINITELY not a defeat so comeon you Arabs, get out there and enjoy. WASC. Fact.

[LSArab]

2-1 United

Kuate to come off the bench for a late winner

[Logie_Arab]

Team: Lewis Toshney Edjenguélé Durnan Robson King Fyvie Briels McMullan McDonald and Keatings.

Subs: Murdoch N'Koyi Stanton Flood Allardice M Smith and Deniz.

That's a good team. 4-4-2?
With the right managment that team can certainly play some good football and put pressure on Morton.
Probably not today though.

[shedboy71]

Good team surprised Keatings starts and Nkoyi and Smith on bench - but attacking options!!
Get stuck into them

Well done to you as well Smed's but the bookie is only paying out on 1 of your 4 prediction's,he keep's the other 3 mate. :)

[jerrennixon]

[GUNBOAT]

thank phuck i was wrong :D

Yup so am i,well done for being wrong though mate :heart:

[offshore_arab83]

I think we'll win

Called it :)

[ianharab]

OA still no great mate , looked poor again in spells but at least looked like scoring with two up front , first gets crossed things start to turn for the better

[Charlie arab]

Eh think we'll win it 2-1, backs to the wall last 10 mins.

😊

[SmedDUm]

��

That's rubbish Charlie, it was backs to the wall last 7 minutes.

;D

[shedboy71]

you know Darren thats what i think too - prob not performance wise but 2-1 after going 2 up in first half.

We had a lot of 2-1 predictions!! was wrong about 2-0 half time so i am ashamed. Im going for 2-1 against Dunf as well to us.
