Following the good second half of the Bromley game it would not surprise me if LB and RD revert to their usual tactice . A backs to the wall, hoofball , and all round negative tactics. Wouldnt it be lovely if they continued on the front foot.

Same team selection. Holicek and 10 others. Your turn RD to pick the first number out of the bag.

In terms of team selection, I don't think Bell has much choice. Apparently (we shall see!) Thomas is available, which means on the bench.
The only worries for me are that O'Reilly needs a rest and what role MickeyD will play. Maybe a draw.

Well, not a game to set the pulse racing! At least we got the 3 points. We're still 6 points from the playoffs and only another 3 from the automatics.
2 positive points from yesterday's game: that Bell brought on Moore when Sanders went off and didn't choose a defender. Luca did not look out of place. Agius scores again. He doesn't do much in the game but if he continues to pop up and score, he's definitely got a future.

Not a classic but thoroughly entertaining. Great to get the three points and I too was pleased to see Moore come on. I was moaning about how little Agius had done and should come off but he did it again, well done to the lad I think he took it well, he played a key part in the build up and still had to finish well. Thought Pond did well and Mickey recovering his mistake shows what a captain he is.

[lukcour]

For me a rather drab game from 2 very average teams which was saved by a well constructed goal. Back to LBs normal negative idea of football.

Feel that Pond has settled well and is forming a good partnership with our Skipper. Think that Powell is steadily improving and getting back to his pre injury form. Looking at the team squad the other day and nothing on O`Riordan. Has he gone?

[gazan]

He's playing for Doncaster. He played against us in the FA Cup.

[gazan]

Ooops! He's gone back to Blackburn. Got 2 yellow cards in 4 appearances.

Did you mean Williams? I see he's not listed as out on loan in the Squad pages any more. He seems to have completely disappeared from Killie's team too.
