Agree with this ^^^
Shame we can’t be travelling up the road with fans and picking up a few Bridies before the match.
Want the STRONGEST team tonight as we try to progress in the cup.
They play a long ball on the plastic - time for another win on plastic 🤞
Benji
Smith Edwards Reynolds Robson
Fuchs Butch
Appere Pawlett Sporle
Shanks
COME ON UNITED !!
Agree with this ^^^
Yeah, I live about 5 minutes drive from Station Park. Grrrrr.
I agree about playing our strongest team but I'm sure Mehmet will play. There seems to be some agreement there that he gets game time in the cups. I actually think he's a decent keeper, not as good as Benji though who has been immense this season.
Happy with whichever team. Just dont think Appere has done enough to merit being considered in our "strongest" team. Goals ratio is pretty poor, has energy but is not particularly good at holding the ball up or bringing others into the game and is not particularly good in the air for his size. Remains a work in progress for me and will hopefully still develop with time. Would have sent him on loan personally.
Guess on the flip side a game against bottom of league 1 is perhaps an opportunity to test Appere's credentials
Our best strikers are Clark and Shankland, would like to see them play as a pair if not tonight then during our run in. Would be good for Shankland's confidence to grab a few goals over the next few weeks and try to push towards the Scotland squad. Spaces available for sure.
Regardless what team stars, we should have enough and I am looking forward to a Friday night game on plastic for once.
8 of the 11 in lsarab line up pretty much picks itself. I dont think anyone in the creative midfield area has done enough this season. That is where our biggest problem lies and where we need to strengthen the most.
i fear we are going to play schite until the 2nd half subbies come on. Perfect game for appere and chalmers though. rather benji in goal but dont think he will be
Benji starts along with Clark,Fuchs and Harkes on the bench
Never like to see Clark, mcnulty, shankland in same side.
Pawlett in for Harkes.think we are 442 with Clark at the top of the midfield diamond.
