GazzyB Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 Buzzing for the start of the season, will depend on fitness levels but I imagine we'll start with... Carson Grimmy Gallagher Lamie McGinley O'Hara Polworth Campbell Hastie Watt Hylton Would obviously love to see Turnbull in from the off but I doubt he's quite ready for that. 3-1 to us!

The back four is the only area I’m sure of picking just now, so many permutations in midfield and up front. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 Hastie Watt and Long with the latter two’s positions being fluid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winning by Name Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 I would maybe have Donnelly in place of O'Hara, but maybe not. Strongest looking squad on paper for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizzlyg Posted July 31, 2020 Report Share Posted July 31, 2020 I would have Donnelly centre half with Declan and Lamie at left back, and a front 3 of Hastie....watt and long Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Posted August 1, 2020 Report Share Posted August 1, 2020 I haven’t got a clue who is going to play actually and the manager will be chopping and changing his mind too I would imagine for Monday night lineup. With five subs available I think this will help us to rotate the squad as and when needed. As others have said seems to be a strong squad on paper.

With no reserve side this season, players have been competing for gametime and very few have notched up a full 90 minutes in a game, so fitness will be an issue - for Ross County as well I presume. 5 subbies will allow us rotate the squad and freshen it up during a game as legs tire as you say. At this stage, fitness may be a key factor in team selection. At the moment there's questionmarks over the fitness of players like Gallagher, Turnbull, Hylton, Seedorf, White, Long and Lang. However ultimately management will know best about how they want us to play and who is fit or not fit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hope Springs Posted August 1, 2020 Report Share Posted August 1, 2020 This is really the only test of fitness, signings, tactics and team selection: a competitive match. I’ve been impressed by the quality and number of our signings, however, and I see this as a clear statement of ambition and intent. So I hope to see this translate into an attacking and ruthless approach that delivers the goals that this squad looks to have in it. Ever the optimist, I think we’ll win this by a couple of goals - 3-1 The Well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

underboyleheating Posted August 2, 2020 Report Share Posted August 2, 2020 Win all our games out with the Old Firm and the league title would be ours. Just saying. Back to earth, this is a tough opener and to be honest I would take a point, although, I think we might sneak it 2-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we hit the ground running and get back to the pre Christmas levels of performance last season we should win, tbh Ross county are not that good. 2-0 to the good guys.

Neilwell86 Posted August 3, 2020 Report Share Posted August 3, 2020 BBC has lang down as making his debut tonight, whether that's off the bench who knows. Suspect we will see Tony watt start tonight, based on the fact he has had a 'full' pre season. The rest is anyones guess, 5 subs gives us plenty of chance to mix it up if need be.

I still think we'll go more with a 4-5-1 set up or a variation of that. Lang will need some game time to get him up to speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ohwulliewullie Posted August 3, 2020 Report Share Posted August 3, 2020 I'm thinking the 8 stick-ons for the first 11 are: Carson, Grimshaw, Gallagher, Lamie, McGinley, Donnelly, Campbell and Hastie... then likely any 3 from O'Hara, Turnbull, Polworth, Long, Lang, Watt, White. Good to have decent options going forward, and I'd be surprised if anyone else came into the starting team that's not in that wee list.

The Auctioneers on Church Street if it's open, might need to phone ahead and book a table etc. If not then the Innes Bar or Caledonian probs best. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joewarkfanclub Posted August 3, 2020 Report Share Posted August 3, 2020 I think the keeper and back 4 picks itself. Other than that I have absolutely no idea what the lineup will be! Changed days! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
