Winning by Name Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 11 hours ago, Kmcalpin said: Possibly the finest Well performance I've ever seen. The team was dead on its feet that night after a flu outbreak. Hibs got what they deserved that night. We asked for a postponement but their Chairman Tom Hart accused us of underhanded tactics and in effect cheating in trying to get the game called off despite having medical evidence. Much better put than my response later. Spot on! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Gardner was a lovely passer of the ball from midfield and could slide well-weighted passes into both inside forward positions where Davidson, Pettigrew and Graham would invariably be making runs. This was a really solid side with very few shortcomings. We could’ve done with a better centre-half as big Willie McVie could be a bit erratic and Bobby Graham could’ve been greedier in front of goal instead of trying to lay off for Willie P. Oh and we were cheated out of two Scottish Cup finals on the trot by really dodgy refereeing decisions. Mine too. The best Well team I've ever seen in the past 60 odd years. It had everything: pace, skil and hardness - just the right mix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brainier Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Hopefully not too much tombola involved in the line-up but Slattery must be picked. He's the only midfielder who comes back looking for the ball and plays passes to players strengths, ie feet. Otherwise we're just going to have to endure 90 or 120 minutes of aerial bombardments and there's enough of that going on in the world.

Ya Bezzer! Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Team that can't keep a clean sheet Vs Team that can't score This match could cause the Earth to explode if the ball hit's the back of the net (or doesn't). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FirParkCornerExile Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Cadden will be man of the Match. Only him and Kelly you'd actually have any faith in as a supporter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Wispy Flossy Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Tombola at its finest today. 2 midfielders thrown out. Will be delighted to be proven otherwise but Hmmm 5 at the back against a team who don’t have any potency as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grizzlyg Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Another bizarre one, woolery on bench despite being out best attacker in recent weeks. Still no slattery is bizarre Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davkel Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 To me , this team selection proves the pressure is starting to get to Alexander .. wow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benson Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 7 defensive minded players plus goalie, no creativity in midfield,drops Woolery and obviously doesn't rate slattery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GazzyB Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Alexander out. I’m serious. That team is a shocker. As it is every fucking week. Absolutely sick of it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might get lucky and get away with it but to be picking a team like that for a home game against a team that is struggling just as much as we are is shocking,just when you thought his team selections couldn't get any more mind boggling.

Kmac Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 Christ almighty, we're the home side and set up with what a back 5/6? We might get through, who knows, but questions seriously need to be asked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbybingo Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 This is a head on the block team selection. Hope to god it works, but if it doesn't, you'd have a hard job defending Alexander. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grizzlyg Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 I think we all agree the team line up is bizarre but game not even started so let's all get behind the lads. Getting on their backs ain't going to help.....COYW Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's my thoughts,for me he has fucked up our league campaign since the break by changing the team every week,if we lose today after him picking that team then there is no way he can be defended after it.

Ya Bezzer! Posted March 13, 2022 Report Share Posted March 13, 2022 I have no idea how that team lines up but calling for the managers head from a team selection is just the daftest knee jerk reaction you can have in football. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't really as it's his beyond daft team selections every week that are putting us in the shit,he's creating problems by the game before a ball is even kicked.

We'll see how it goes, but you know fine well people aren't reacting because of one team selection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
